I was really interested in Alan Wake before this past E3 but now that I've seen the actual game, I'm not impressed at all and my hype meter went down to around zero. The game looks incredibly underwhelming especially considering how grand it was going be according to Remedy. I literally LOL'd at how cheesy the game seemed and how the mediocre "creepy" moments were presented. Not to mention the flashlight looked bad and it was clearly a rip off of the Resident Evil laser-sight aiming mechanic.

I remember when Don Mattrick announced it was time for the Alan Wake presentation, the crowd clapped and cheered loudly but after the presentation was done and the developer did their wrap up speech, the attendees clapped in a lax manner that resinated their disappointment.

Not all games can be gems, I suppose.

1. Open World
- The 360 couldn't handle the open world explorable world with realtime weather and night cycles. So the game is linear now, and the visuals are still not on the level of Uncharted1.

So now we are here, with a product that the onlythign someone can say is significant is its "LIGHTING", in the dark? Phenomenal.

Now of course we will get the people that go "BUH GRAPHICS DONT MEAN ANYTHING" clearly, alone they dont. BUt combined with amazing gameplay like MGS4/Killzone2/Uncharted/Uncha rted2/Motorstorm2/Ratchet/Resi s tance/etc, its easy to see that good graphics + good gameplay make great products.

The fact is the 360 can't outpower the PS3 overall visually, just when the PS3 is forced to run the same code that works on the 360. Then you get an insignificant difference that expert geeks have to discover with software.

I mean, thats the reality.

Alan Wake & Splinter Cell are both taking longer than KZ2/Uncharted, and they miss the mark completely. And I dont buy the argument that they are polishing the gameplay when SC was redone from scratch, and Wake removed a gigantic gaming feature.

Edit:

Ausbo, More excuses...

Ratchet & Clank is more advanced than Alan Wake, plus its damn near open world. Started From scratch.

Uncharted 1 = started from scratch and still runs circles around ALan Wake.

You can come up with millions of excuses on why the 360 has yet to show a product that is technically superior to any PS3 exclusive, but have you forgotten that the 360 is "SO EASY TO DEVELOP FOR" and had a year head start? M$ puts their money into advertising, not game technology.

Greywolf, Uncharted 1's cinemas weren't even realtime and the model you actually played as was cut down severely from that of the cinematics.

Alan Wake beats Uncharted in scale AND graphics very easy. It runs on the new X Engine, with which developers are now able to use Xenos' full capabilities. They kept certain features locked in their previous DX 9.0c subset API used the dev kits at the time.

Xbox 360 is going to be pushing graphics like you wouldn't believe. 3 16 pipeline shader arrays in a 48-way dual parallel unified shader core, with an additional 192 pixel processors provided by the 10MB of "intelligent memory" eDRAM.

Gran Turismo's Demo runs all over all things the 360 could produce.

The cut scenes/replay mode all use the same models, and the in-game visuals are impossible to run on the 360.

so you cant name a game in the 360's 5 year library that looks better than Uncharted1. lol.

You also cant point out the argument that only Uncharteds cut scenes look better than 360 games, that the gameplay differs.

Then the best part:

"Patrick: The characters in Uncharted are some of the most impressive video game models to date. They look even more impressive up close in the cutscenes. Are the in-game models any different from the cutscene models?

Richard: Thanks! Nope, the in game models are the exact same models that are used in the cutscenes. They also use the exact same textures. There really is no difference between them at all.The only difference between the cutscenes and in game is a little higher quality lighting and shadowing. Hopefully not too noticeably different. We really wanted to keep the players immersed as much as possible. This meant using the same assets across the board."

Keep talking about CutScenes all you want, since you brought them up? The images are captured in-engine. Like the replays you can export to youtube.

They are realtime because they aren't PRE-RENDERED in a software package like MAYA or 3DSTUDIO MAX. Like Halo commercials/Gears commercials.

ApocalyPS3 - 71 days 23 hours ago

Wulf, I can list several games.

Bioshock is one that comes to mind, it really pushed detail for its time and even had an option to disable vsync so that you could play in the highest FPS. So it has graphics, and it's an FPS...easy formula right? Not exactly...because that's where 2K just throws the book out. Plasmids? Splicers?? 50's theme??? Just for being that unique you'd think it'd just hit the bargain bin...but it didn't. Bioshock is something else.

Mass Effect also comes to mind. It had issues and wasn't held back long enough to iron out those issues, but everywhere else it shined. It has a sophisticated and very well thought out story. Its facial animation and character dubbing have yet to be rivaled. Its sheer ambition still unmatched.

Halo 3 still ranks as my alltime favorite FPS just for it having the tightest console FPS controls in existence. It took on Resistance and its sequel...it took on COD 4, KillZone 2, TimeShift, Crysis, Section 8, Metroid Prime 3, and every other FPS to come after and still none of them have been able to approach the loyalty and admiration that Halo 3 has earned. Maybe COD4 :D

Lost Odyssey is one fine jRPG brought on by Mystwalker that managed to carry the proven excellence of Squaresoft's former head (and during their better days) Hironobu Sakaguchi. I'd actually just as well mention Blue Dragon just for the fact that it reminds me so much of why Toriyama still has a name in this industry. Both games rank very well against the higher profile projects by Squeenix.

Turn 10 may have earned a rep for being loudmouthed and forgetful of its place, yet Forza Motorsport is a brand of racing game that took community to heart. Right off the bat this gen they made sure that the player was treated to not only customization options and online gaming but incredible detail and superb physics. Forza MS 2 is serious enough to be considered a sim, deep enough to keep playing even after 3 comes out.

Capcom's Lost Planet, Resident Evil 5, and DMC 4 while multiplatform still prove that Xbox 360 can do insane graphics. It's actually funny, because for some reason they came out slightly better in their 360 versions. MT Framework is one amazing engine and I suspect that it's the reason why RE5 puts some incredibly insane polygon counts onscreen and why Lost Planet 2 looks so amazing...in fact so does the original, even today!

Even Squeenix has done some fine work with their proprietary engines on both consoles. Once again, yes it's multiplatform but that doesn't take away from the fact that Xbox 360 can do HD gaming. Games like Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery, and Project Sylpheed might seem like crumbs from the leftovers of FF XIII's budget but they're actually pretty spot on examples of what they can do. I think they're pretty good rpgs...but it's funny that Mystwalker should be beating them at their own game right now, lol.

Konami...well they DID release Rumble Roses XX on Xbox 360 way back then, lol. We never got to see what Kojima could do with a bigger budget and enough time...I do have some pretty high expectations for MGS Rising. And I hope his recent quotes of showing interest in Natal might result in his actually producing a game for it. It's speculation at best but it's still a future prospect.

So I've done more than name a few games. I've given you a pretty good reason to own an Xbox 360. And there's more to come from all of the developers I've listed. Sure, most of it is multiplatform. But just like you PS3 fanboys insisted on believing in Sony's waiting game, I say let's wait and see what 2010-2011 hold for Xbox 360.

When it comes to Mass Effect, there has not been a better RPG this generation. The only flaw it had was animation and MASSIVE pop-in.

Halo 3 was an OK game. I love Halo:CE, but the series still has yet to live up to the original.

Lost Odyssey- Great story telling, poor gameplay.

The fact is that the 360 has not had game that push visually the way many PS3 exclusive have. And even though the 360 has Mass Effect in it's corner, Sony's first and second party studios have been the bench mark of quality this generation.

Both wrong, Uncharted Drake's Fortune uses CG movies for its cinemas. Check the first 10 minutes video I linked, you'll see the differences. The cinema that plays has no problem loading textures, but the actual gameplay right after (when you start playing) does.

If that's Saaking's PSN profile, may i laugh? Saaking, can you confirm?? Please do :)
No wonder you have so much time to spend on N4G like the rest of you fake PS marketing gamers on this site.

There's nothing to prove really, why don't you read all of the main posts on this website. ALL XBOX 360 GAMES. If this were really anything more than a website for you fools to troll 360 games, PS3 games would be on the front page.

tl;dr GET A LIFE

Ok let's play!
PS3 over priced fixed!....After how long?
PSN fixed?.... What was wrong with it? When Xchat comes out then bring it up!
Games weren't any good? True until Uncharted and KZ2. So this is true!
Tech. The wand? Really? As much as droids complain about Natal do you really think the wand will be accepted well?

Sony is a gaming console sweetie. I'm sure you're 12yrs. old and have nothing better to do in life but the reality is this. It's fun to play but not everything. Hell I could really make some great points about the 360 and some bad ones. You really shouldn't put so much into this. The sad part is somewhere inside of you, your little heart got happy when you typed this. So sad little one....So sad indeed!

"1. First the psp was a failure - proven wrong"
-Sorry, still a failure. Bad sales and 90% of 3rd party games are bad.
"2. then the ps3 was over priced - fixed "
-That's nice? After about 3 years.
"3. psn was terrrible - fixed and will be better after Xchat and is still free"
-PSN was never terrible, it's just not up to par with Xbox Live.
"4. the games weren't any good - have the most versitile games catalogue and the best next 12-15 months of games in this gen coming "
-Most versatile? I'm sorry, the lack of good shooters fails to make this statement true. Also since you haven't played the games upcoming in the next 12-15 months, you can't confirm these are all good games.
"5. technology - the ps wand/motionless controller,3d coming to ps3 next year, 5 layered blue ray just developed, "
-The PS wand is a rip-off of the wiimote and everyone knows it. 3D is old technology and is definitely not going to be used by every single PS3 owner. 5-Layered Blue-ray is still in beta and it's not going to be used for a couple of years, probably after PS4 comes out.

You fail to prove your point, it's quite sad actually. Go back to your mother's basement and enjoy playing your PS3 games while we enjoy are superior consoles and games.

Just to address a couple of those points - a large majority of 3rd party software is garbage on any system, not just the PSP and that hardly defines whether a system is a failure.

Also regardless of whether you think the xbox offers a better gaming experience or not, to refer to it as a "superior console" is a joke. As a piece of hardware the xbox 360 is a tragedy and if you are a true fan of gaming then you should be complaining your ass off to Microsoft rather than licking their balls.

Most versatile? I can list a whole bunch of 360 games that are nothing alike as well.
PSP: A good hand held but the PSP Go is a failure in price point. Today is the 1st time I saw one at the store and it was priced at $250.00....Really?
Sales? Make a company money but I didn't touch on that.
3D is great and so is Natal
Storage? The 360 has enough choices to choose from to suit what ever your gaming style is.
Insecure? Nice for you to bring it up but I own a PS3 as well you should really read some of my comments.

PS: I own a PSP and 360 and WII as well.
