Im certain Wake will sell the most. Reviews will be close I think Heavy Rain might get the edge



yeah i think wake will have better sales but since rain is so pretty it will get a lot pass on reviews



 

From what ive seen of the both...

Ill say heavy Rain will be the better game.
Alan Wake will get better sales.



                            

H_E_A_V_Y R_A_I_N will have the better review scores but Alan Wake will sell better. Although the review scores might be closer than the sales, but you never know.

Both games look amazing and I will be picking them both up.

Reviews......to soon to tell, but (IMO), probably Heavy Rain. Sales.....I actually think that Heavy Rain may outsell Alan Wake, but we shall see.



Alan Wake will have the edge in sales because it will be released on PC too.
For reviews I really don't care which game will going to win as long this 2 games will live up to my expectation and surprise me at the same time.
Since your asking I will answer. Heavy Rain will have better reviews.



I'm thinking Alan Wake for both.



  

It had better be Heavy Rain all the way on both. Sony needs to push this game like it is Halo 4. I expect the game to score no lower than a 96 on meta critic. I wish Alan Wake all the best though. Both games are obviously going to bve very good for the industry, and we as gamers need to support them, and spread the word.

The only reason I see it going this way is because I have not seen as much excitment from people that I have showed Alan Wake to as I have when I showed people Heavy Rain. Something about that E3 presenatation from last year just hooks most people on the idea right away.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

I really don't think that either will do very well in terms of sales, though i could be wrong. Heavy Rain will be better critically received (based only on what we know at this point, the game seems like it is more dynamic in terms of story choice and whatnot), but Alan Wake will probably edge it out in sales, though not in any way worth writing home about
