Forums - Microsoft Discussion - 5 Graphical powerhouses exclusive to Xbox360!

Gears 2,Alan Wake,Star Ocean 4 and Lost Odyssey and many more powerhouses coming to Xbox 360,heres a little about them.

 

Alan Wake-Alan Wake is a bestselling horror writer. Early on in his career, his fiancée Alice was his muse. Just prior to meeting her, he had started to have strange dreams which he used as material for his first book. The book was a big success, a dream come true. But then Wake’s fiancée vanished without a trace. Wake was devastated. He couldn't write anymore, his dreams stopped and he began to suffer from insomnia. At the beginning of the game, Wake travels to a sleep clinic to seek treatment for his condition. The secluded clinic is located near the small town of Bright Falls, Washington, far away from the stressful urban lifestyle. Receiving treatment at the clinic, Wake is able to sleep again. At the clinic, he meets a mysterious woman who is the very image of his missing fiancée, uncannily so. At once, his dreams return, this time as terrible nightmares. Wake begins to write again: a new book based on those nightmares. But something is horribly, horribly wrong. Impossibly, the town of Bright Falls starts to change to something awful that bears a close resemblance to Wake’s new book. Wake ends up fighting for his life with a gun and a flashlight in his hands, trying to understand what’s happening. (Was the trailer using CGI?)

 

 

Splinter Cell Conviction-
Splinter Cell Conviction will deliver an adrenaline rush of game play with blood-pumping chase sequences, close combat and intense gun battles. To survive, build an underground network of allies who will help you obtain hi-tech gadgets and stay one step ahead of your pursuers as you struggle to unmask the forces that want you dead.

 

 

Theseis-ndonicos Kalogerou is a man devoted to science and the war against superstition. From his office in the historic centre of Athens, he has worked diligently for more than 5 years, travelling all over Greece and revealing the paranormal for what it truly is: drunken fantasies and uneducated hysteria. But his intelligible, safe little world is going to come crushing down when a call from Pheve, his adopted sister and fervent advocate of the mythic, informs him that his step-father is not only missing, but presumed dead as well. With a heavy heart, Andronicos travels to the place of his childhood, high atop the Greek mountains, to bury an empty coffin and reunite with his quarrelsome step-sister. Little does he know that each step irrevocably brings him and Pheve closer to what Destiny has in store for them. For the death of their stepfather heralds the beginning of the greatest struggle between good and evil with the prize being nothing less than the very future of this world.

 

Ninety Nine Nights 2- From the original Ninety Nine Nights,part 2 comes with thousands of enemies on screen,and even more characters to play from,yet little is known about this game.

 

Ninja Blade-When Ninja Blade was first unveiled a few months ago, you could have been forgiven for thinking it had a lot of similarities to another, more popular Xbox 360 ninja-based action game. But in a pre-TGS media briefing held today at Microsoft's Xbox HQ in Tokyo, developers from From Software gave us our first close-up look at the upcoming game, and we're happy to say that while there are definitely similarities to the Ninja Gaiden series, Ninja Blade appears to have enough unique aspects to make it worth a look for action afficionados.

 

 

Edit-Added more pics for the games.

And people doubt 360's ability to create better looking games than even Killzone 2.....I say FUCK YOU to them!



PREDICTIONS:
360 will outsell PS3 YTD for 2008. (CHECK!)
360 will have the best showing at E3 & TGS in 2009
2009 will be another year for the 360 over PS3
End OF 2009 SALES :: 360 - 40M;  PS3 - 30M; Wii - 70M

360 has held its own graphically for the past two years I am impressed



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

Can't wait for Alan Wake. Its looking to be one of the best games for 2009

Interesting, name a 360 game that does. And for the record, Alan Wake is a PC port, hardly taking advantage of 360 like Gears 2 is, and still neither of these, IMO, hold a candle to Killzone 2. Good list though Garnett, Im actually getting Thesis, Splinter Cell Conviction, and Alan Wake - of course.

Alan Wake is gonna push de Xenos to duh limits!!! and i have to agree KZ2 > All fps,Alan Wake looks amazing.

 



5 graphical powerhouses and you only have screenshots for two of them? And one of them is made by From software? And another is a sequel to the awful N3? And another that's never been seen publicly? And another that's in development hell?

Ah well, at least Alan Wake should be good out of those five titles. I have no idea if it'll qualify as a graphical powerhouse, however.

Splinter Cell Conviction looked pretty damned ugly in trailers that have been seen so far, though I've heard that they might be changing from the Unreal Engine to Scimitar, which was used for Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia.



None of those look better than Uncharted imo.. Alan wake so far with what Ive seen comes somewhat close, actually no I only saw one trailer, can you post screens to support your argument?

All games are made from software,N3 was a good hack n slash games (compared to the dynasty warrior series).

 



The PS3 thread of this was much more appealing. I mean God of War 3 and Killzone 2 win. Alan Wake looks like it can match Uncharted 2 though.
