I repeat:

94% Meta
Top 3 GOTY
750K first week
+3 million lifetime

Great words in that twitter. It won't be the last of that sort.

94% Meta - I would reckon so, past few meta's though I've got completely wrong!

Top 3 GOTY - Goes hand in hand with reviews ...

750k First week - 600k IMO

+ 3 mill lifetime - 2.5 mill

I guess I'm a tad more conservative with my predictions ...

I'm guessing metascore to be 87-93(/100), 200 000 - 500 000k sales first week, best story GOTY.

The best looking game of this Generation is also unbelievably good, it's going to be a tough GOTY this year.

Alan Wake is already mentioned. ;)



When the reviews start to pile in for this game and it gets the 7's, 8's and maybe a a few 9's sprinkled in all of thse people proclaiming alan wake to be the 360 savior will perish into obscurity.

Tell you what, I'm so sure it'll get a metacritic average of 90 or over (majority of review scores being in the 9 to 10 range) that I'm willing to make a sig bet on it.

i'm pretty sure its a great game.












i sound like Aion


Severance - you're really unbelievably funny. PS3 threads are so boring.

Im sure AW is a great game and will bring a lot of joy to those who buy it. Might even be a system seller (yes I've been thinking of.....)



Can't wait for this Game... May still seems so far away!!
MAY 1ST -MAYWEATHER VS MOSLEY hahaha
May 14th? was it ALAN WAKE

Whether it surpasses Uncharted 2 in terms of graphics or not it doesn't really matter, to fanboy boys it does, Especially those PS3 Fanboys because they hate to see a game on the 360 surpassing PS3 graphics because 360 fanboy might taunt them and say 360 is better overall as a hardware. Undoubtedly Uncharted 2 or GOW3 is the best looking game to date on consoles
But Alan Wake looking impressive indeed

Alan Wake!! Wake up Hahaha

The 360 doesnt need a savior. That would imply it needs saving. It has alot of great games. And while I agree that reviewers will be very hard on the gameplay. It will end up around the score of Heavy Rain. Of course I'm hoping for 90+ though.

I think it will have better reviews than HR since a lot of reviewers just did not like the gameplay, but Alan Wake should be more easy to like, and the 360 exclusives get better scores anyway.
