Just playing a little devils advocate but watching 1080p encoded footage on your 24" Cinema Display is very different than watching it on your 47"-55" plasma/LCD. It's going to look great but that's not how you can properly judge IQ

I watched it 1 foot away from my 40" 1080p monitor.

(Game is pushed all the way up to the monitor for scale.)
 
Indeed, look at the difference between Perfect Dark Zero and Halo Reach. Launch games are generally quite poor looking after the first year.
Perfect Dark Zero looked worse than OG Xbox games at launch. Everything was so shiny and the environments were disgustingly sparse and sterile.

Our memories seem to part on this. Which original Xbox games do you think looked better?

(Not that the art-style itself wasn't a mess)

It was clear they put most of their efforts into Kameo. I still remember sitting their in a stunned silence after booting it up for the first time, such a visually stunning game...

Still manages to hold its own even today.
 
We have no proof that they could make it look better on the PS4, and until we have games looking noticeably better on the PS4, I wish people would stop saying this.

What in the world...? So now HW means nothing? Do you think this game looks like it does because of magical fairy dust unrelated to HW? Are you a dualist as well?

Man I don't know about that. Remember Oblivion. That looked pretty nasty on the PS3

All Ryse footage up to this point has looked even more amazing when viewed on my HDTV compared to my PC monitor. My monitor is good, but the visuals don't pop nearly as much as they do on my television.

Everytime I've gotten high quality footage, I've also run it directly on my HDTV to see what it looks like. And my television is bigger than 50 inches.
 
It sure looks impressive. But I still don't know / haven't seen how the gameplay works exactly. Is it a brawler? God of War style? Are there only QTEs? Does the game actually slo-mo every time you hit a guy?
 
I don't understand why people thought Xbox One wouldn't be able to pull off visuals like these... Specially when cutting edge tech oriented studios like Crytek put their hands on it. PS4 being able to deliver more on screen doesn't mean Xbox One is suddenly a Xbox 360 with 8 GB of ram.
 
I'm sorry but show me a game that looks 50% better than RYSE on PS4....
Ryse is probably the best looking console launch game.

Not like I would expect anything less out of Crytek, but it would be nice if it was in 1080p.

Both consoles will have games that obliterate these launch visuals. PS4 is just gong to be impressing far more, especially later cycle. Bit like PS3 exclusives now only with a larger gulf.

I agree with this completely. Naughty Gods.. uuuuughhhhhhh, all the blood just rushed to my penis, I'm about to pass out.

I don't want to get in to this, but Killzone SF does, and has 44% more pixels, open ended gameplay (SP) and in MP at least, runs at double the frame rate. Think on that a minute.

Show me one that looks .5 percent better. This is just above everything else currently. How does it play though? Impressions of the multiplayer are bad, which obviously fills me with dread because that's where a game's longevity usually lies.

Sorry, I've watched the new Killzone footage. Doesn't hold a candle to what's being shown in the latest Ryse trailer. Not even close. I can't argue gameplay since I've played neither but I'd give the edge to Killzone since its at least getting some positive previews. But in pure visuals, it's not even close.
 
What are you even arguing? That the PS4:

A) Would be able to pull this off
B) Would be able to pull this off with even better visuals
C) Would not be able to pull this off

Or are you simply arguing against physics and math?

Arguing?

I'm not arguing anything I'm saying that if you're going to walk in this thread and swing your dick around about the PS4s specs you might want to back it up a little bit.

They are also completely different games doing completely different things.

By that logic I could just bring up how Forza 5 is 1080p and runs at a locked 60 fps at all times.

Doesn't take much more than common sense really. Either way the need people have of bringing the PS4 into every Xbox One discussion really is becoming tiresome.
 
Well, this will happen in November. Let's wait for the DF articles, first. :P

Going to be entertaining no doubt.

True. I don't even know why I bother responding to FordGTGuy. I mean, his YouTube comment the other day. Hilarious.
 
My favorite part is the shield slightly bumping the soldier's arm when Marius passes. So good.

That's a great detail but the real star of this scene is Marius' armor; every piece moves individually without clipping

Add those gorgeous metal shaders and textures and you got yourself a winner - damn
 
Everything is impressive. The lightning, the goddamn grass, the faces, the fucking armor. Crytek went to town with this bitch.
Yeah, but grass/ground has been a specific point of neglect on current-gen consoles. Even in The Last of Us and GTA V we got fantastic, impressive lighting and facial modeling.

But grass and ground textures have been fucking hideous, this generation. Usually just one huge texture smudge, so painful.
