I would like to believe but these are the same guys who discovered Halo 3, GTA4(PS3), and others to be sub-HD.

I cannot believe with that.

WakeLestat360 · 04-17-2010, 04:27 AM

For me, it's fake... you know, Remedy have said "720p", and, Digital Foundry too. Trust me, it's 720p...

But if you want, let's wait for Remedy say something about this

Is he actually using the game or screens of the game? lol

Nope this screenshot is from Videogameszone.de

Their HD Video is 960x540.

camer999 · 04-17-2010, 04:35 AM

Yeah. I think that is what I will do.

The game is 720p. Those screenshots are based off footage captured at 960x540 like cocorenut pointed out, of course there will be some downsampling involved.

As has said before Videogameszone and Gamepro both released footage without approval and due to the fact that we don't know how many compressions their videos went through or what process they took it's best not to use those videos as sources.

QuantumWake · 04-17-2010, 05:12 AM

Oh man, everyone is going crazy. This is not going to end well.

BxB402 · 04-17-2010, 05:37 AM

It won't end for the fanboys gripping this news tightly and being all "Hurrr, it;s not 720p!". They are all gonna look like morons soon...if it's possible to look even more like one than they are.

DJ Brent · 04-17-2010, 05:46 AM

720p or 547p the game is still looking outstanding.
oh and sorry for my english

vwgolfve · 04-17-2010, 06:03 AM

A man in Beyond3D says "no matter the upscaling or downscaling of the video, you can still count pixels to know the native resolution."
So the game is 720P native?

BxB402 · 04-17-2010, 06:09 AM

Anyone that thinks you can accuratly show the resolution of anything by using a video of it from the internet is a complete freaking idiot.

DrDoom · 04-17-2010, 06:09 AM

I'm confused how is someone I have no clue of more reliable then someone who has ties to Remedy?

Great movie!

Remedy games better get out a gameplay section of there own to counter these..horrors.

Diamond · 04-17-2010, 06:46 AM

Considering the source video those screenshots were taken from is 960x540 in resolution, there is absolutely no way you could tell what resolution the game is rendering in from that video.

Diagnosis : FUD

They said it so at the other thread. It's indeed 720p. No need to re-answer this. Morry plz, update the F.A.Q. in your signature, so that all those noobs can see the obvious answers there...

Austin316 · 04-17-2010, 09:29 AM

which thread?? nd ya...why they have not confirmed it in FAQ thread ??

cocorenut · 04-17-2010, 09:32 AM

Quote:

But we really don't and can't control the resolutions in Alan Wake. We're just pushing 16:9 720p out and the Xbox360 OS handles the rest. The game doesn't even know whether you're connected with HDMI, VGA, Component, Composite and whatever rez you set your 360 to.

Ridiculous comment the pixel detail isnt there to count pixels if the video isnt 1280x720p
