Impressive, although below what Sony was showing off. However, remember that the good stuff won't be developed well into the end of the PS3's life.
I know, but I seriously dont know how anyone can possibly comment on the quality of graphics in this day and age. Especially new game graphics!!! The thing that makes you guys "Unimpressed" with the graphics is because some of you were dumb enough to believe some blatantly CG movies were ingame. (Im looking at you, Killzone 2) Even though they dont make the game, I grow more and more impressed with the "real" graphics every year, and dont criticize them like I made them myself. Its very easy to discern CG from graphics, anyway, so some of you shouldnt have been fooled anyways...
Well, I care about graphics a lot, and I will tell you why. To me, having good graphics is every bit as important as having a good story. The graphics are what lets you see the world that the game maker's want you to see, and with the ability to produce better graphics comes the ability to make better, unique, and more interesting worlds for the gamers to explore. Just to give you an example, what do you think Doom 3 would have been like on an Atari 2600? Some of you people need to stop confusing "good" with "3D". Just because someone says good graphics, doesn't mean they are talking about 3D graphics. Graphics do matter, end of story.
I was just irritated that some of the people here were acting like they made the graphics themselves and were criticizing them like crazy. I dont see how they can do that in this day and age.
They weren't criticizing the graphics, but merely criticizing Sony for hyping their machine all to hell, claiming it was going to be this and that, claiming it was going to be the most powerful console ever, and yet when shots of the actual graphics appear, you can see that Sony is still having problems with Jaggies and that the machine isn't nearly what Sony had promised, but we should come to expect things such as this.
+1 i don't think anyone here really thought the quality of the killzone 2 video could be reached. i think you're imagining things, mate. funny you say this, i remember we had a flame war on this. :smt042
Okay, whatever. I think the screens look good, despite being hyped to hell by Sony. I think everything looks good in this generation and also from what I've seen, the next. AND yes, people are crticizing the shots
you don't seems to understand that we're criticizing sony's super-computer-that-will-defy-the-moore-and-gravity-laws hype.
OK, time to stop the bickering. The truth is that people are criticizing Sony for yet more hype Bull Shit. The PS3 does look as if it's got the PS2 jaggies which is a joke when you conceder other consoles don't have this problem. Surely they could sort it out? Yakumo
Nope, remember its sony :smt042 Just j/k, the only discussion here is that sony is doin the same bullcrap from the FFVIII: selling a game just from rendered CGs :smt067
that was square crap though. and i personally liked ff8 not the best of the serie for sure, but i liked the gamplay.
I sort of see the jaggies now if I really see it from very nearby. I'm at 1600x1200 here, and I have very tired eyesight, and not precisely a good one at that. To me, it looks great either way. That X360 set that JTI2K posted on the other thread does look more impressive, but that's because the pics are better and there's a human to compare the stuff to - and it's got more colour. I wonder though, how these games play and how the images look once moving. I'll tell you what, if I get either system for free, I'll be a happy camper Looks like I'm getting the cheaper of the three - though those X360 images did interest me a bit more into that one. Still need to get an original XBox for those emulators - but... Now, I wonder how Cel-Shading and 2D will work on these new machines. Colour me impressed - even if I'm still not getting a PS3 unless forced to.
Halo is different, hte whole hype about it comes from the mainstream that never played a good FPS (cuz there wasnt any in PSX) and never went online. Plus, the whole "vehicles" stuff made it a must have for the noobs. Honestly, that game owns it hype to its dumb users :-D
Man, Halo 2 was overhyped with all sorts of lies just like some of the psx games. I dont see how it doesnt compare. Bungie is to Xbox as Square is to Sony. Im sure Bungie and/or Micorsoft are cooking up a million lies for the upcoming Halo 3 right as we speak.
If you will, compare this to the first gen ps2 demos, and then to something like ZOE. This is just some crap ass demo using 1/8 the power of ps3. You're going to be very suprised.
