Alan wake isn't out. So until a game is out that can actually render that in-game with all the action/AI, then I will believe it.
Until then, it's just fantasy. -- I know you're talking, but all I hear is Blah Blah Blah... |

| reply to delt4 I think Alan Wake comes pretty close. Look at that second screenshot with the sun reflecting in the water, it's amazing. |

| reply to Hardcore said by Hardcore :THE GRAFIKS R BAD Seriously, while that would be an awesome idea, if I had my druthers, studios would focus more on story and application stability than making the game look good. A few dev teams focus on graphics soley... sad... 
And me too! I set that as my desktop wallpaper!  |

Now, imagine this in a FPS or FPS/RPG game with the clouds moving, the draw distance, blowing snow...shadows etc...etc. Anyone want to take a stab at how long till we get graphics like this? This reminds me of some of the snow maps I used to play on Novalogic's DF2 and DFLW games. Albeit, not as good....lol! This picture is courtesy of And Still I persist.
