yes, exactly!
That is what I hope! Looking forward to the game nonetheless.

I wonder (and I have no clue) whether the tearing can actually be introduced in the video compression exercise. Other vids I've seen (eg. Gamersyde) haven't shown anywhere near as poor a framerate, or any discernable tearing. But those vids on Gametrailers do look like poor encodes and maybe that introduces tearing?
Mr Leadbetter?
I hope tearing will be fixed or that it's a non issue (video induced).
Other than that I'm the only thinking that tone mapping changes too abruptly ?
I mean may be it's on purpose but sometime it looks like penumbra/shadows are following you or the whole scenery get darker some meters away from you as you're moving.

I just read an article in a game mag, where they talked to the devs:
What I did not know was, that they go for an episodic structure of the game, i.e. the game is subdivided in several episodes (like a TV series, not like a cinema movie the dev claryfied)...he mentioned for instance Lost as an example of the game structure.
What I am thinking about: if you go for, lets say, a Lost type structure...did the dev unintentionally spoil that we maybe get an open ending (to be ready for the next game aka next 'season') and that this is kind of cliff hanger ending game?!?!
I know, much speculation on my side, but interpreting the statements of the dev...

Not necessarily. And also bad form on the part of the dev if true. I remember Simon the Sorceror 2's cliff-hanger ending, and then a 20 year wait for the world's worst 3D game sequel. Finish the game, or at least the immediate story arc, and sell me the whole package. Sell me Game 2 on the strength of my enjoyment of Game 1 instead of holding me to ransom.

For me is the eyes than don’t convince, if a character model does not have the right amount of movement and glossiness for the eyes it makes them look like zombies.
Think less cliffhanger and more 'unanswered questions', this being a Remedy game.

Its just pure speculation on my side...but I share your concerns.
While I agree that some games are more enjoyable when played on a HDTV but that's just lame excuse for such a highly anticipated game. There must be something else going on here and I'm guessing it's about platform exclusivity. New trailer looked fantastic though not showing much gameplay.
It looks a very impressive game on the face of it. I'm sure it'll be a good game - I think the only question is whether it has that extra something that'll make it a great game. No telling really until the reviews come in.
Shame PC gamers aren't getting it, but you never know, there may be a change of heart in 6 months time. *shrug*

Doesn't matter what piracy is, as far as sales are good. How many multiplatform games have PC sales matching those of PS3 or X360?
Also PC system requirements are driving people off. You need to upgrade every year spending 100s of pounds to keep their system at 'playable' conditions.

No you don't. And pretty much any modern system would have played Alan Wake since it would be a console port.
This has zero to do with system capability and everything to do with MIcrosfot wanting a high profile exclusive on the Xbox.
And yeah Renegade, it seems the reasons to own a Windows box over a Mac are getting ever fewer. Ironically thanks to Microsoft. If MS continues in its blatent sabotage of the PC as a gaming machine then I may not bother upgrading again and consider a Mac / Sony based future.
PC vs Console is another discussion. This thread is about the game.
Same goes for modding talk, etc. If it's off topic and gets out of hand, it'll get deleted.
Update: Seeing as some people decided to ignore the warning, the PC vs console posts have now been removed.
