Alan Wake DX10 Support Uncertain?

According to an interview at PCGH.de DX10 support in Alan Wake is still uncertain. On the bright side, if you have a quad-core CPU, you'll be enjoying a 30% or so performance increase. I think they must have misunderstood Markus Maki's answers though, as according to him DX10 support just hasn't been announced. The game, however, is Vista exclusive so you do the math.

Of course, the 360 supports Dx10 right? i seem to hear people claiming it anyway.

Mr Marbles6685d ago

360 supports what many refer to as DX9.5. It has many features availible in DX10 but does not meat all the official specs to carry the title. Like the early 802.11n routers. Just as fast just as good just missing a few final specs.

Marceles6685d ago

“Xbox360 cannot run DX10,” said an ATI spokesperson. “The Xbox360 has unique features including memory export that can enable DX10-class functionality such as stream-out. From what we’re hearing, Crysis will support DX9 with some sort of use for DX10 features. It’s likely that those DX10 visuals can be replicated on the Xbox360, but it can’t be properly called DX10.”

I guess Marbles was right

Silver Bull3t6685d ago

Pull your head out of your butt. Your only here to kick up static. I'd love to see a link to ANY thread with people claiming 360 supports DX10. Are you able to link to your ass?

You are the Zhuk of the PStards. Believe it.

mistertwoturbo6685d ago

wait, this game is coming out on PC too? here this whole time i thought it was only for the 360. microsoft, you idiots need to release true 360 exclusives, not 360/PC.

neeharb6685d ago

Microsoft does need to make/buy/steal games just for the Xbox 360 exclusively ...because only when people wont be able to play games on their pc's they might be tempted to buy an Xbox 360...I don't think many Ps3 games are on the pc ...they wont be...i know some if not many games last gen xbox/ps2 did eventually come on the pc but unless Xbox 360 has a good deal of amazing exclusive games and by exclusive i mean only on xbox 360...people wont buy it!! simple

Mr Marbles6685d ago

could care less which you buy, PC or 360 it is all good for them, they get a cutt of the cash from every game sold on games for windows, many folks fail to realize that Games for Windows is to MS what PS2 is to Sony, another source of income.

deadpreacher6685d ago

Why? PC is also MS gaming income. PC and the x360 go hand in hand when it comes to MS. Your a idiot if you think MS needs to release just on the x360 when PC is there home court!

Silver Bull3t6685d ago

That's why I'm building a new gaming rig next round.

i Shank u6685d ago

how exclusive means something to people. does it make you feel like you're in some cool club, if a game's exclusive to 360 or PS3? as long as the game's great, shouldn't a gamer careless what platform its on?

this game was never DX10 cuz Xenos being DX9(+). As for Vista exclusive, this is fairly easy to fix, patch, crack.

pornflakes6685d ago

OH MY GOD.. this game was always stated as 360/ Vista exklusive.. ALWAYS. Are you retarded or something?

You guys also need true PS3 exklusives i mean you get all te ps3 games (names) also on the stupid psp, thats so sad.

Please switch on ya stupid brain and think about it.. xbox360 + PC (Windows) = MS.. same like PS3 + PSP = SONY...

How stupid can ppl be.. OMG!!

InMyOpinion6685d ago

It doesn't affect the game, now does it? They just look for stuff to complain on. Jealousy I guess.

Sez 6685d ago

don't mind sonyfanboys. they are mad that they have to pay more money upgrading their pc's just to play it. costing way more than just owning a 360. just to play 360/pc exclusives. all this tells me about people talking about 360/pc exclusive means that the ps3 exclusives may not be as interesting as fangirl think.

TrevorPhillips6685d ago

this game will look good on all console i mean they've been working on this game since ages so yeah it will be a good thriller game =]

A Late Look: Alan Wake

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "All in all, it’s not hard to see why Alan Wake has received a bit of a cult following (there’s that famous foreshadowing again). It’s a title that blends themes and gameplay, while pushing the limits of storytelling by putting stories within stories and letting you read those stories before you get to that part in… the story. It has flaws, to be sure - the gameplay side can’t quite keep up with the rest of its ambitions - but overall it’s a great game that stands out among its peers and is undeniably… one for the books."

Kind of a goody story...

On a serious note, that is why I try activating gift cards asap. It's happened to me where the store didnt scan it right where the card was unusuable. Happened at Wally World.

gigoran8756d ago

wait, that place is real? national lampoon wasn't kidding?

jznrpg168d ago

People sometimes call Wal-Mart Wally World including myself

Tacoboto755d ago

I just bought two of the MonsterVerse Godzilla movies on 4K - both had digital copies expiring in 2023. Both were actually expired.

I'd be surprised but it's WB, of course they'd actually expire them

Knightofelemia756d ago

Usually most of those redemption card have an expiry date on them. If they expired all buyer did was buy recycled paper. And some of those codes are country locked to certain countries. I buy a card from the States I can't use it in Canada.

Chocoburger756d ago

Dumb and silly story. She wasted her money for no reason.

Is it really that hard to go to Steam or GOG. She spent $240, when its currently 70% off on GOG, and only costs $4.49.

Gee, I wonder, should I spend $240 on eBay, or $4.49 on GOG? 🙄

Rynxie756d ago

Most likely she wanted to resell a few or most of them. However, it was a too good to be true situation.

Profchaos756d ago

So in short she paid $240.00 assuming usd for a bunch on unactivated game codes.

I still don't understand why I guess cause there's not a physical version and she wanted something for a collection or art project.

Rynxie756d ago

No, most likely to resell. However, she ended up getting screwed.

Asplundh756d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.
