Maybe they actually put the PS3 to it's limits with these type of graphics....?

But the controller was definitely Xbox looking.

 

[Backfoggen]

Ubi would be the biggest tech wizard gods if that demo actually ran on PS3. Even if it actually was an extremely linear game the amount of detail is just too high for it to run this smoothly on current gen tech.

 

[indigo-cyclops]

PC release for this makes me oh so happy.

Me too, this looks so fucking cool.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Never on current gen consoles with this quality. For instance, Max Payne 3 looked amazing but never as good as this.

That's not a gif, that's direct screen footage. The game runs at 500 x 281 on consoles.

 

[Spookie]

This looks like what Syndicate was originally going to be.

I said this on mumble as soon as he flipped up that bandanna across his mouth. EA should be taking tips.

 

[Sandfox]

Are you blind. There is no way that demo was running on current gen.

This game looks just like current AAA PC games.

 

[ironcreed]

Was running on PC obviously

Yeah, Ubi-rig confirmed. Still looks like an amazing game no matter where you play it, though.

 

[Bill Squabber]

Gameplay reminds me of 8 Days.

 

[maquiladora]

Maybe they actually put the PS3 to it's limits with these type of graphics....?

It was a wired PC controller, it was running on PC.

 

[DarkChronic]

These are the types of E3 reveals that I live for.

I cannot stop thinking about this. It's a show stopper, for sure.

 

[Fjordson]

Late, but obviously they started development on PC using educated (with possible information from manufacturers?) guesses of what the target hardware would be for the next-gen consoles.

Or, hey, maybe it's just straight up a PC exclusive like the good old days!

(wishful thinking)

As the Ubisoft guy said in this very thread, it's coming to PS3 and 360.

 

[kaskade]

God Damn. Games like this are the reason I love E3 time. That rain was amazing.

 

[jett]

Never on current gen consoles with this quality. For instance, Max Payne 3 looked amazing but never as good as this.

MP3 doesn't look good enough to wipe the ass of this game.

Individually-rendered rain droplets each affected by bokeh DOF. I said wat.

 

[Bisnic]

Gameplay video looked amazing.

 

[masterkajo]

Awesome demo. Two things I didn't like though, too much violence and shooting and why does every gun in a video game hold like 10/120 bullets????

This whole scence could have been done with a gun with 6/0 bullets. Better yet, get rid of the thugs and use a better way to stop the car so you only need 1 bullet.

 

[Roo]

YES. That mean it may come sooner than i think.

Or if it really is a 2013 game, there is plenty of time to add a Wii U version.

Tomb Raider would love to have a chat with you...

 

[MMaRsu]

Maybe you are right. It's just that, wow, the guy in the car is actually trying and not wanting to get away when the protagonist pulls him out. As someone said, could be scripted, but for me it was the most powerful moment of the clip.

It says rescue near the door.

 

[- J - D -]

Man, watching gives me that old school E3 giddiness sensation. Been a long time.

 

[maquiladora]

I can't even think about this clearly yet. Need to wait until after the Sony conference to come back to it.

 

[Holy Wars]

Are you blind. There is no way that demo was running on current gen.

It looks like a PC version of a current gen game, which is seemingly exactly what it is!

 

[GazzaScotland]

This will show up on next-gen consoles, be it along with versions for current-gen remains to be seen in my opinion.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

Damn right that's PC. No freaking way the game looks close to that on PS360

 

[Chittagong]

Trench Coat Man is the Bald Space Marine of the next generation.


Game looks absolutely spectacular, superb graphics, style, writing, pacing.

Only thing developers still need to nail is camera movement. Somehow that mathematically turning camera makes everything look more gamey than necessary.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

With it looking that good on PC, no way I'd ever want to get it on PS360. The downside, of course, is Ubisoft game on PC. :/

 

[Jim E. Rossler]

For all the effort GTA makes to convince me I'm a sociopath, this fucking scene really messed with me.
The guy is crying because the driver (a completely innocent bystander) is dead to a crash *you* caused and you just throw his desperate ass out of the car and tell him to go away because I have to kill my target.
This is a fucking asshole and cruel protagonist right here. Kratos level of asshole.

If you go back and watch the video, the woman dies when the 3rd thug opens fire with his mac-10, spraying towards the player after you bullet time the first two. It's then you see the blood spray on the windshield, hear the impact and the guy screaming 'no, no'. The windshield is clean and intact before the 3rd guy opens fire.
You dont get blood on a windshield from a 35mph car crash

 

[WillyFive]

Are you blind. There is no way that demo was running on current gen.

The impressive parts were the gameplay; the visuals weren't that jarring next to the rest of the games shown today.

 

[See You Next Wednesday]

If it is a glimpse of next gen gaming then count me disappointed.

Game looks like a small/decent step up from GTA V. Not a generational gap between it.

 

[Pooya]

could be one of those cross-gen titles. ubi had GRAW and Splinter Cell Double Agent on any platform in existence in 2006. Don't think we will see Rainbow 6 Patriots again anytime soon either.

 

[AngryMoth]

Regardless of whether it comes out on current gen consoles it would be smart to make it a next gen launch title if it's going to look like that

 

[Vermillion]

Trenchcoats are badass, so I'll take it

 

[Spoo]

Yeah, game of the show. I was blown away.

Assuming most of that isn't scripted.

 

[RPGCrazied]

If it does come out on 360 and PS3, no way it'll look like that. That demo has to been running on a high end gaming PC.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Seeing the reaction to this game makes me believe people are going to be blown away with what next-gen has to offer.

 

[Linkified]

It's also hard to make a profit on a presumably really expensive game that's been in development for two years on new consoles. I don't think they would've shown the game if it was (mostly/solely) targeted at next gen, unless Sony announces PS4 later.

Same thing happened with Assasin Creed though right after PoP they went exploring for emergent gameplay plus if released at the right point people will buy it.

Also seen as it was using not only a PC game pad I think of the Razr type and no date, means it will a ways off.

 

[Alex Tru]

Looks pretty cool. Can't wait to hear more about it.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Honestly, if impressive graphic presentation excites you, you should really do what you can to start gaming on PC. Then you don't have to worry about what compromises are needed to get games like this running on aging hardware.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I skipped the rest of the Ubi show after AC3, so I missed the reveal. Looks fucking impressive.

 

[HyperCubed4]

Hey guys, is this running on the PS3? Man, this is going to look amazing on the current gen consoles! Isn't it, guys? Man, if only we knew what console it was running on.

Yeah, so the game looks great. Are there any thoughts on the actual gameplay?

 

[rouken]

happy to see it coming to the pc, hopefully it's a 2013 game.

 

[Avinexus]

For those wondering about the controller. I'm watching this video right now and it looks to me like the base of the joysticks have blue lights coming from them. I don't know what controller it is, but that might help.

 

[macfoshizzle]

GIF request please on the car crash sequence

 

[Fjordson]

Not next gen, coming to PS3 and 360.

Yes. It was showed on PC.

Read the thread people

 

[daebo]

I'm late as I was having dinner, but holy shit... This was amazing.

 

[Sallokin]

Regardless of whether it comes out on current gen consoles it would be smart to make it a next gen launch title if it's going to look like that

I wonder if it'll be one of those generation straddling titles that's better on next gen or whatever, but also will be available for current gen users.

 

[Xpliskin]

PRO TECH ANALYSIS:

Just kidding.

There's slightly TOO MUCH DETAIL for it to run on a PS3/X360/WiiU.
Think of this like a ULTRA SETTINGS PC VERSION.

IT WILL NOT LOOK THAT DETAILED ON CONSOLES

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

^

 

[D4Danger]

so now we know it's PC, anyone think it's UE4 or some in-house engine?

 

[brochiller]

These facial expressions are the best I've seen in a game.

 

[Sblargh]

Ok, I interpreted the scene wrong, then. Sheesh.
*still*, c'mon, very good moment.

 

[jett]

Seeing the reaction to this game makes me believe people are going to be blown away with what next-gen has to offer.

It's not just visuals, conceptually it also looks really cool. Seems a mix of Splinter Cell and Assassin's Creed while doing its own thing at the same time.
