That's a very old video, but the lighting is still impressive.

I love the way the camera shot around the map like that, at a phenomenal speed. I hope the actual game incorporates some camera work like that.

wow!!! looks awesome. Hopefully the 360 version looks somewhat close to this level of quality

lol you wrote March 2009 on purpose to get more views !!!!

Admit it already >.

that was really good! Although i doubt the 360 version is very close to this.

It's been posted many times here. And it's 2½ years old footage.

And no, Alan Wake don't need a quad core. Even the PC version will run fine on 2 CPU cores.
I recall they ran the demo on a PC with two Nvidia 8800GTX GPUs (and a Quad core CPU of course) at the showing.

its still pretty awesome though i cant wait

"We use the CPU to help prepare data for the GPU" Xenos + Xenos = AWESOME!!!!

Hope than the 360 version looks like this, or better. That would be awesome.

no way would the 360 version look better than the pc version

It needs at least 3 on a PC. They say in this very video what they use each core for. And then state that the game would not run and look this good if it was not for multiple cores. The game designers have designed the game so that if it was on less cores they would need 2 completely different games. Becasue they cant take any of the stuff out because it's all relevant to the gameplay.

1 core for physics

1 core for dynamic lighting night and cycle.

1 core which prepares all the information for the GPU.

1 core to run the rest of the games operations.
