Yes, agreed Mr. Garnett. I see what you did there btw :P but I do agree that Alan Wake will be ungodly amazing. Before I was bitched at about my sig I had a prediction on there that says "Alan Wake and God of War 3 will be the highest rated games this year. Maybe highest selling too."

I stand by it. The trailer in my sig will silence all non-believers.

@Sega4Life yes this game should be a sandbox from what I've read and heard.

Great thread Garnett I remember you were upset that 360 fans on VGcharts don't hype games, well maybe you can be the one that starts the Garnett hype train baby!

Those shots do impress me though.

Very well done, this game looks awesome, heavy rain looks better though but i think its because of the design of this game.

What Genre is it btw? Perhaps it'll play better then Heavy Rain which could very well be the case.

Tis is gonna be da best game eva!

I can't wait to play it on my PC.

Looks good, but I just pray that they don't give it some cliche, lame ending where he wakes up from a dream or something similar.

:) I had to do it.

Alan Wake will be Huge..

@Grahamhsu I had to start hyping this game up,this game is gonna be awesome..

@CGI-Quality Agreed both games are gonna be HUGE!

Psycho horror I believe. Tied for best genre for me; right with good JRPGs.

Is this coming out for PC at the same time as 360? If so I would bet for two reasons (one good and one bad) it will do worse then expected. On the good side a lot of people who have both a 360 and gaming quality PC will get it on the PC. As Fallout 3, Oblivion, Mass Effect and many more show if you have the choice things will undoubtedly look and play FAR better on a PC unless your PC is a dog (using anything made by AMD for instance). I don't think anyone with both a very good (capable of very high settings) computer would argue against getting games that are on both for the PC, but there might be ONE guy out there somewhere.

The bad reason is a lot of the people who aren't motivated enough to mod chip the Xbox 360 (and might actually buy it for 360) are certainly capable enough to just DL it from Pirates bay. I like to pretend that isn't most of the community, but I bet its at least 30% of potential customers. I've pirated music, some movies (ones not worth 20 bucks to see in theatres or buy on DVD) and especially TV shows (which are aired free anyway) but I would never pirate a game; most of the non casual community doesn't seem to agree however.


My guess is a few hundred thousand unless it pulls something near straight 10s. I hope its good, the last weird adventure type game I've played that really impressed me was Indigo Prophecy which is what, 6 years old now?
