Jesus christ im watching the quiclook right now and just sitting here in awe..


Look at this. 2012, 60 dollars.

Im not even refering to just graphics, but presentation, design, animation etc. You should watch the QuickLook to get a better idea.

I know I know, licensed product, probably rushed to fit the movie's release, I should expect it to suck and whatnot, but I think this has probably gone beyond everything i've seen in recent years. It's just so... dull, empty, souless, and overal terrible-looking.

So im sitting here thinking: In these factors i've mentioned before, and excluding launch windows and first years of each console (for obvious reasons), does anything beat it?

 

[Roto13]

Their eyes. They don't focus on anything. They just keep looking straight ahead no matter what.

 

[Kerub]

That is some terrible animation right there. Nightmare fuel!

 

[Sendou]

Now I know why full body motion capture exists.

 

[Bombadil]

Haha at 6:56 onwards.

"Sounds good Agent Double D"

 

[Absoludacrous]

I guess this is what happens when you give the Cabela people even less time and money. Their other games barely passed as this gen.

 

[NeoRausch]

Goesn't look bad far a .....

"2012 PS360"


Oh....ohwow! Ca..ca..cash IIIIINNNNNN!

 

[Hero of Legend]

I think it's by Fun Labs; the usual Cabela folks (Cauldron did Dangerous 2011, BGH 2012, and Jurassic The Hunted IIRC).

So I wouldn't expect them to have ANY real facial animation experience.

 

[XANDER CAGE]

I thought Infamous was a fun game, but the terrible jaggies made it hard to look at in spots, and the atrocious cutscene animation really took away from the whole thing for me.

It's not a bad game by any means, but I really found it ugly.

 

[UnluckyKate]

GoldenEye alarm sound anyone ?

 

[vazel]

It's funny how they all look like they have parkinson's. Instead of putting so much idle animations into them they should've concentrated on voice sync and facial animations.

 

[jkh13]

THIS is the worst looking 360/PS3 game. It makes that MIB game look amazing in comparison.

 

[MYE]

Holy shit that looks bad haha

Lol, totally Vampires: The MASQUERADE!

 

[Bgamer90]

lol this reminds me of how bad the MIB 2 game was. Worst game I ever rented. It looked like a late PS1 game which is funny since this MIB 3 game looks like a late PS2 game.

Here's a link to a MIB 2 review from G4's Judgement Day. So funny.:

[IdreamofHIME]

I love in the quicklook when they just give up playing the trash and start checking out the achievements of people on the MIB leader boards.

lol

 

[Fracas]

I throw Lord of the Rings: Conquest's hat into the ring.

Worst looking game this gen IMO.

 

[Mileena]

Nier is definitely up there

 

[AHA-Lambda]

I was going to come in here and post MIB after just watching the quick look :lol

 

[Complistic]

how is this even possible?

 

[NeoRausch]

Nier is definitely up there

Eh? Not to best looking game out there, but.....

 

[Salsa]

how is this even possible?

highly unexperienced dev team + bad budget + rushed to fit film's release

how is it possible that this thing costs $60 instead of it being a budget title?

 

[Femmeworth]

Good god. Troy Baker and Laura Bailey deserve better. I hope they were paid well, at least.

Nier is definitely up there

No.

 

[feel]

kidding

 

[theCHENRY]

this is... amazing. I don't even k... My brain stopped working.

 

[raven777]

THIS is the worst looking 360/PS3 game. It makes that MIB game look amazing in comparison.

I thought this game was not out yet.

 

[SolidSnakex]

 

[Wichu]

If we go down the route of indie games, you can do a lot worse than Minecraft.

 

[Chunky]

Nier is definitely up there

Ehh, technically it's not great but I'd say the creative visual design makes up for it.
OT, MegaMan 9+10 look like NES games, does that count?

 

[XANDER CAGE]

They look like they're trying to catch invisible pieces of popcorn in their mouths.

 

[Mileena]

No.

Yes.

 

[Ridley327]

"If I move my eyes, the bomb will go off!"

Heinous.

 

[brumx]

Some of the older wrestling games looked pretty damn awful

 

[Durante]

Nier is definitely up there

Not even remotely close. Nier is technically average and has good art. There are 100s of worse looking games on PS3/360. Like this one.

 

[gogogow]

Nier is definitely up there

Definitely not up there.

It was a rather nice looking game imo and the game has incredible drawing distance.

 

[Femmeworth]

Yes.

I would suggest seeing an opthamologist.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Definitely not up there.

It was a rather nice looking game imo and the game has incredible drawing distance.

and that lighting, "bumped up my must buy list"

 

[Digishine]

Anyone got footage of the wii version? cause it's on the wii also.

 

[legacyzero]

Hour of Victory.

 

[Myriadis]

Look at that.
The game might be fun, but it is undeniable that it really doesn't look that good. It's similar to Psychonauts, excellent gameplay, bad graphics.

 

[Clegg]

Alpha Protocol looked pretty horrible too.

 

[Femmeworth]

Look at that.

It was a low budget game, but it wasn't that bad looking.

 

[Ridley327]

Alpha Protocol looked pretty horrible too.

The animation was pretty awful and the environments weren't anything to write home about, but it did have some good-looking character models.

 

[viewtifulsub]

Hope you have a spare pair of sunglasses when visiting Seafront village. Else the bloom may cause permanent eye damage.

I've got your back on Nier, but I can't go down this road.

lol, reminds me a lot of Portal

 

[Femmeworth]

Yeah, they could have toned it down there.

I've got your back on Nier, but I can't go down this road.

It didn't make my eyes want to bleed. *shrug* No denying that it's crap on a technical level. The character models weren't too shabby, though.

 

[Ridley327]

I've got your back on Nier, but I can't go down this road.

Maybe he was referring to Psychonauts? It was a nice-looking game in 2005, at least.

 

[SmithnCo]

Oh christ. It was terrifying enough in video form.

 

[storafötter]

Look at that.
The game might be fun, but it is undeniable that it really doesn't look that good. It's similar to Psychonauts, excellent gameplay, bad graphics.

Do the characters really move like that constantly in all cut scenes? I was curious on playing the game but seeing that all the time would drive me mad.
