Well power is a relative term, if you're talking relative to high end GPU's then no the PS4 is not particularly powerful.

your comment has nothing to do with anything. you may have replyed to the wrong person
i dont know but comparing teh PS4 to a high end pc has nothing to do with ND making a great game/cutscene with talent and computing power (PS4) Both. obviously the world needs both of these

 

[GD71]

I can believe it is in engine with one character on screen and nothing happening. Leaping out of a burning plane whilst shooting 100 bad guys and saving the girl? I can't see it.

 

[Ricky_R]

Nope. Also Liam Neeson, Jeremy Renner, Banderas and Oberyn Martell (GoT) have been mentioned.
He can be all your fantasies combined lol

Yeah, Oberyn was the first that came to mind. Specially since he's so fresh in mind and I didn't know who he was before GOT.

As soon as they showed Drake's face on the sand, I immediately noticed the resemblance.

 

[Croyles]

Nope, not just you. Also Liam Neeson, Jeremy Renner, Banderas and Oberyn Martell (GoT) have been mentioned.
He can be all your fantasies combined lol

Lol. I believe this is all a genius calculation on their behalf, to make Drake look like all those cool people you like.

They definitely made his nose wider and more 'boxer' ish. Nose and ears never stop growing for men (allegedly) so it would make sense.

I'll wait till gameplay hits before trying to shit talk the pc platform honestly. The more I look at the trailer the more I believe it's pre-rendered and of course quality goes down when it transition s to gameplay. The IQ is simply beyond what the ps4 is capable of, look at killzobe shadow fall for example. When first shown everyone had the impression it would have smooth IQ but in reality KZSF is a jaggy mess by my standards. Let's wait till gameplay hits and lets see how big one level is before we start shit talking

I was seriously expecting this when they first showed the trailer. If it was real-time then no reason why we can't expect that throughout the game, would be amazing.

They (Naughty Dog’s Studio Coordinator Rodney Reece and Lead FX Artist Keith Guerrette) confirmed to us that the Uncharted 4 trailer showcased during Sony’s E3 2014 press conference was a part of an actual level in game. Secondly, they also confirmed that the entire trailer was running in real time on the PlayStation 4 and it was all in-engine.

Is it just me or does Nate now look a LOT more like Nathan Fillion?

Really reminds of the shot from Out of Gas Episode:

 

[geordiemp]

Please what?

stop.

Its a very old criticism of Uncharted games, and given every other main character in a shooter fills body bags its lame.

 

[El-Pistolero]

I knew Corinne Yu would have an impact, but dem shadows & lighting & textures & ohhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy



Based Naughty Gods

Come on now! Corrine has a fantastic pedigree, but ND have always had the best the industry has to offer in terms of coders and artists. She is a very talented person who joined an already special team...

 

[cobragt4001]

Infamous: SS proves that you can have amazing IQ on the console though. If anything, I would expect the LOD in Drakes character to go down during actual gameplay, but that's because you won't see it anyways. It honestly will not surprise me if IQ stays the same.

Edit: I don't see how it's shit talking PC to say this is the best looking game ever (if it does end up looking like this).

SS isn't smooth at all, yes it's 1080p but there's still plenty of aliasing visible.

People saying what's the point of the master race or the PC doesn't have a game with visuals like U4 is baiting.

 

[dancegrenade]

And there is a game character in a shooter who is not ?

Please.

You need to chill out.

 

[El-Pistolero]

The last of us trailers and initial "gameplay" looked much better than the actual game. With this being said they are no Ubisoft.

Please link to the initial gameplay reveal that ended up being downgraded...

 

[Pinktaco]

Instead of getting super defensive why not just.. relax?

Alteast garyBig understood the sarcasm. I just found the picture to be funny with that quote since I know exactly what uncharted have been criticized about.

 

[geordiemp]

I am chill, I was polite, just a very old boring criticism of Uncharted games that used to crop up from many years ago in uncharted 1 - sorry I missed your wit...

The funny aspects are games like TR where she get upset on the first kill, then turn into terminator.....

We all read the same thing dude, calm down. I just know from experience that console games rarely look like what's presented in the press I'm sorry but it's the truth. All of the second son pics people post in the console thread look nothing like the press release pics of the game, matter of a fact none of the games posted in the console screenshot thread look as good as the pics released by the developers so I will be neutral on this and I suggest everyone calm their expectations down. I hope the game looks like that trailer, might make crytek get their ass up and make something to match or exceed that because they love to brag about their engine can do this and that so I hope U4 looks as close to that trailer as possible but until I see actual ingame graphics and not inengine I won't change my position.

Are you serious? Here's a quote from the Digital Foundry article on Infamous:SS:

The presentation is meticulously clean, almost pristine - operating with a full 1920x1080 framebuffer alongside a modified SMAA T2x that stands apart as the most impressive utilization of post-process anti-aliasing we've seen on any platform.

 

[Ateron]

What do you guys want? A TPS featuring Ghandi?

The man is constantly being shot at, the least he can do is return the favor! There will be lots of guys to kill, people will once again complain about disonance, drake is a mass murderer, yada yada yada.

Spoiler

There is a bit of disonance between the Drake we play as and the one portrayed on the cutscenes, always light spirited and cracking jokes. But I'm lucky enough that it doesn't bother me too much.

That's because there is a photo mode which heavily blurs the background for a photo effect. You cannot play the game in this mode as one of the powers is a sniper power and you need large draw distance. In photo mode you cant see 20 ft, but good for arty pics if you like that sort of effect.

So, no you are incorrect, the game looks fantastic at 1080p and one of the best looking games I have played.

Actually posters have used this example before calling Infamours a poor image from photo mode, maybe they should get rid of it as it can give fly by readers wrong impressions

Dude, I don't need another person opinion to validate my own. I've played SS and it's nowhere smooth. SMAA is great and all but it can't replace 4x MSAA which I'm use to.

 

[CoffeeExpress]

Is this a final game in the series or what ? I remember hearing a quote from ND saying they will keep making them untill they don't want to anymore..

Never said SS was ugly but for me, it ain't close to the best in terms of graphics.

I agree. We know now that there will be no prerendered fmvs in the game (apart from intro maybe) and we know what they are going for in terms of graphics. Aaand we know it's dem Naughty Gods. I take all of this as the final answer to the qustion everybody's asking.
I am hereby fully convinced to see this level of fidelity in this specific cutscene in the game as it ships (maybe framerate might be less solid but apart from that...)

ND routinely surpass the quality in their own game reveals.

I don't know why people think this will be any different.

I need recipes, U1 through 3 looked no different than what originally was shown from the developers for me when I use to game on consoles, aside from the downsampled pics the developers would release which looked nothing like that ingame.

 

[Omotesando]

They do have plenty of time still to make inprovements, although I can't think of any based on the trailer, and the goals they have already set in terms of performance.

 

[leadbelly]

Erm... I kind of expected it to be. I don't really see the point in showing a prerendered cutscene. That's not really what anyone would want to see.

 

[RoboPlato]

Totally agree. But they had done just that with the teasers for their previous games. So I guess the most noteworthy news here is that they finally ditch prerendered cutscenes for U4 (and probably all their future titles after TLoU Remaster), because when they still used to have them people had no doubts at all that what they showed was just a prerendered cutscene.

Why Neogaf bans sites? They did it with playstationlifestyle and now with Dualshockers. I wonder why!

 

[leadbelly]

Yeah, but considering other games are using totally real-time cutscenes, I didn't expect that on PS4. Most notably The Order 1886. There is no need to.

Well, you can never be sure, though.
Even Killzone SF had fmvs (with no visible improvements over gameplay grafx, however). And since it's been common practice with ND up until now, I for one didn't expect it to be anything else at first.

The initial reveal was real-time though right?

The thing is, people want to see what the console is capable of, and considering there is enough power inside the PS4, you can show something quite impressive. You make a bigger impact if you show something impressive in real-time.
