Sorry Selnor for derailing your thread, but at least we aren't attacking you right?

didn't you ban me once for derailing?!! =/

I would absolutely LOVE to know how I banned you. Do tell.

okay look at your name now look at me, now look at your name now back to me.

you have probably banned me using your ingame mod editor.

your mod color turned into white after it was blue!

i'm on a hearse.

Nice "The Hero Your Hero Could Be" impersonation.

 

By the way, my name was never blue and even if it was I am sure I couldn't ban you unless I was Mod or Admin.

 

 

Were you ever at Qj.net forums? If so then I definitely could have banned you at some point.

i guess its someone else , i had this wall of quotes and i got warned (and without me noticing the warning) and banned after i continued doing it

Well now I shall ban you just for accusing me.

Hey Selnor, what in your opinion is THE BEST Alan Wake trailer?

Point me to it.

I am still staring at the water in your sig and want to watch a trailer.

I really like the helicopter one, called helicopter, or chase or something like that.

Selnor.... if you want to avoid all this bullshit, try to not write your opinion on the OP, because you know that this will turn into a shitstorm, even if you don't want...

comments like, "AW owned SH and RE" (like, SERIOUSLY?!? you didn't even play the game!!!) or "GOTY?" in every thread yours....you've to keep them to yourself, or not in the presentation of the thread.


I can accept your comment, and it would be a viable thing. But for one problem. Noone bar 1 or 2 posts has even commented on my opinion about SH and Resi. Instead they have taken my question to you guys as readers and said that was my opinion. I mean what the hell?

One poster even said I am saying Alan Wake has the best ever graphics in the OP. Now where the hell do I even mention graphics or even refer to it? I cant help but know there are alot here, who had no intention but to troll. And I request a mod to read the entire thread. Notice I apologise when I am wrong. Several times to. But when the loads of people in this threa are wrong and twist it entirely, they dont apologise but continue to troll. Some people have no self respect or respect for others. Or they just hide nehind their PC screens.

i understand, and i can see that some people have no respect for others.

BUT! ( <---there's always one, LOL ) you can't deny you have mentioned in countless threads before that AW has the best graphics ever (even in the AW tech Video recently posted) and since this trailer shows nothing more but presentation, people 1st thought is that you're basing your opinion of ,SH & RE being owned, in just graphics, this is why you always have to be careful with the words you choose for an OP, because, there's a lot of haters out there.

AND! ( ^^ ) about the GOTY discussion, again, even if it's a GOTY contender just like the trailers says...you're making it sound like it is a GOTY just based on this trailer... which, again, it's focused on Presentation. and then again, this shows you how careful you've to be choosing words for an OP. (<--- i learnt this in GameTrailers =P that site it's a constant flamewar)

IMO, you clearly are a 360 fan, but you show respect when you're discussing, even if your opinion will remain unchanged, you've arguments to back up your opinion.

It's cool. Dont worry about it. It's all good.

I love games, graphics and 360. And I dont even hate the PS3 at all. In fact that would be stupid. Even in Graphics threads for years I have never said anything bad about PS3. In fact when Gears 1 was out and 360 clearly had the lead, I said PS3 and 360 are about equal on power. And have said the same thing to this day. I just got more vocal about proving it when some fanboys thought the 360 was miles behind the PS3 based on some Sony exec saying so. So of course I'm glad when M$ have some games come along that are specifically designed with graphics in mind for 360 optimization. But I still maintain the 2 consoles are pretty damn equal in graphics power.

Well all I can hope is people just read my OP's properly next time. If people actually took apologies to, it would stop all this. At least I am man enough to apologise I guess.

You seem rather reasonable. Nice to talk to you. :)

And you wonder why people here don't take you seriously.


Well lets be honest. It's only the opposite fanboys who cry.

MY comments are fully justified. Or did you miss the fantastic comments in the trailer from IGN and other reviews. Sigh. Instead of moaning buy a 360 so you can play it.

We just went through this with you and Forza 3.  OMGZ, the greatest thing ever, GOTY, blah, blah, blah.  Basically, any 360 exclusive gets the same treatment.  It's rather predictable and boring.  If you would at least wait unitl you've played it, you might get a little more respect from everyone.  I'm sure after this come out and doesn't do as well as you predict, you'll quickly move to Halo:Reach.


1. You clearly missed the ? after GOTY in the title. Thats point one.

2. Point 1 nullifies anything youve just typed.

3. Reach probably will win GOTY. No Halo has ever not won GOTY yet. And Reach looks by far the greatest Halo game concieveed.

Halo 3 didn't win GOTY in 2007, Bioshock did. ODST didn't win GOTY in 2009, Uncharted 2 did.

I've already covered all of this. :P

It looks ....alright. Is the best way to put it. Too much of the actual gameplay reminds me of your standard Unreal Engine, Bioshock-ish type of game. The graphics look very good but not as good as Uncharted 2/God of War III (IMHO, the two best looking games right now). Graphically, it reminds of a tad of Heavy Rain. Certain parts are going to look fantastic while others will look downright mediocre or horrible even.  But I feel Heavy Rain has some graphical prowess over Alan Wake.

The actual gameplay is where I am concerned for this game however. I have yet to see much that intrigues me from that standpoint. If it can hit on the magic that Resident Evil 1 captured so many years ago, then this game will be a cult classic though.

I would say it's probably going to hit a 87 on Metacritic. I doubt at that critical acclaim it will achieve GOTY but it's possible if it stands out enough. I can say that I won't be purchasing it on day one. Red Dead Redemption is getting that nod.

I'll be honest in saying that for a game that's been in development for so long, I am a tad underwhelmed.
