God, I can't wait to play this on my nice TripleHead2Go rig.

5040 x 1050 is going to be one hell of a resolution to play this game on.

What makes you think thats what people were disagreeing with? People already know the way you game you say it every single room related to games exclusive to MS.

I agree with you about this looking like a must buy.

Probably just upset fanboys. Nevermind them, this game will be awesome. I dont have a PC rig like you though lol, I'll just stick to playing it on the 360. Can't wait, this will be an amazing game...no, experience.

I didn't give you 1. People are too concerned with other people's preference & what they spend their money on.

TripleHead2Go right? what is this 2007? and the fact that you don't list any other specs probably means your hooking that sh%t up to 3 B&W TVs in your mom's basement running from your Dell.

L2PC game, nub. It will probably look better on the 360. It's bad to enough brag, yes, but it's even worse to brag about something as unimpressive as what you're bragging about. This, my friend, is why people are disagreeing with you.

F-A-I-L. What does that spell?

What the christ.

You want my specs? Fine.

Intel Core i7 920
EVGA GTX 295
6 GB of OCZ DDR3 RAM at 1600 MHz
1000 Watt Corsair Modular PSU.
Asus P6T Deluxe V2 motherboard.
1 TB Western Digital Caviar Black
CoolerMaster HAF 932
And of course, 3 LG Flatron Wide 20.1" 1680 x 1050

Satisfied yet?

i guess im the only person on this site that can read or was the video moving to fast for u retards?

ill tell u what ill help ya out.

At 00:14 click the Arrow on the video, itll then change to a standing equal sign. Afterwards simply glance to the right side of the screen and ull see it clearly says the game is multiplatform.

U fanboys are truly miserable

I guess you aren't aware that you can use a 360 and ps3 controller on your PC with plug ins. So you can play this on PC with the same controls.

@SlaughterMeister- No need to be jealous. If you have the money go get a 360. If not, there are plenty of good games coming out on the PS3. I will tell you what. I decided a long time ago that I would not miss out on any of the great games this gen. So I brought all 3 current gen consoles. I do not worry about which ones are exclusives...

Game on...

so I'm only old, not ancient. Koontz has been the only 1 to hold my attention. My aunt bought me 3 of his books for christmas when I was younger, & I liked his work. I'll have to check out Patterson. Does he write similar themed stuff?

I just disagreed. I find it odd someone instead of simply giving this game positive feedback they would announce PC, assuming most of the people saying that have a PC able to run MS's high production value games. 360 and Windows fans don't often talk about platforms when praising games exclusive to these platforms.

Anyways I can't wait to see more in this open world GEM.

7.3 - Having a gaming PC in nice
It's funny how it's ok to mention the 360 version but as soon as you mention the PC version then there is a problem at least from the blind worshippers of a certain console. This game is looking promising as I used to like games likethe old Alone in the Dark games (1st a fav) and Nocturne. Hope it turns out good and if so may also get it for the PC.

8 - Hey N4G site designer,
get rid of the agree/disagree. It's worthless. People disagree with questions. People disagree with personal feelings. It serves absolutely no purpose other than to show how many 360 fans are in a PS3 article, how many PS3 fans are in a 360 article, or how many people personally dislike you no matter what statement you make. & just to avoid banishment, Alan Wake looks awesome.

heck i could tell you that right now.

number of ps3 fans in a 360 article.

5 ps3 fans for every 1 360 fan.

number of 360 fans in ps3 article.

1 360 for every 400 ps3 fans.

there really simple.

Why would God of War 2 in HD take GOTY? Doesn't seem to do anything new from the PS2 games except be in HD now.

Halo: Reach
Mass Effect 2
Alan Wake
Gears of War 3

will be the big GOTY contenders. ; )

I think that this is a good preview. And that I am going to get this game probably pretty soon after it's release. It would be nice if it had a Stephen King feel, as he is one of my favorite authors.... I guess I'll just find out when I play it!

And I'll just be playing it on my regular xbox, and my giant tv. No specs...lol
