Quick test of Silent Hill 3 at 8Kx4K to eliminate all aliasing (DX8 prevents AA)

What sort of frame rate do you get with that?
I'm sure like most people, the PT announcement got me sort of energized on Silent Hill and I might try and get through the first three games.

20-30 range. Only good for a screenshot run. 4x2 should run fine though.

Also, I did a free camera for Fable 3 but couldn't get FOV (weird).
Also also, I did a free camera for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2. With FOV =)
Might be the first game I've played that uses static addresses for camera coordinates. It works during any part of the game. Normal gameplay, fixed camera scenes, even cut scenes.
Problem is, I did that with the demo. Not sure if I want to pay $40 to port that to the full version....
Yup.
Here's a similar situation with MB on [.jpg, unluckily].
IQ-fanatics maybe disapprove, but I find the 'painted-like' feeling that occurs in some shots pretty enchanting.
Unfortunately there is no way, how stop time in Morrowind, so make screenshots of monsters in good position is tricky. But I can try!
Bring up console, click on a monster and type TAI. That should stop the monster moving. I guess that is as close you are gonna get to a timestop.
I would like to get monsters in movement, ideally with my play character during fight. But that is impossible. "TFC 1" like in Skyrim would be absolutely hilarious.
Despite the aliasing, looks nice. If you get a chance, injecting SMAA works well in m2033 and costs little performance and if your hardware can afford it, downsampling works nicely as well.

Edit: Had to re-up second pic
Those Morrowind shots are great, that game holds a special place in my heart.

The saturation in this image stood out as I was scanning the page. Gotta love the 'hog...even when she's gussied up like a trollop!
Thanks for the comparison, I've been looking for a clear differentiation and that clearly shows the improvements.Original (4k downsampled, ultra smaa):

What game is this (no title)?

I prefer the lighting in the original. Incandescent lighting and lanterns would be giving off a dull orange glow rather than a bright blue light.
Looks like Morrowind

Another shot I grabbed last night during a cut scene. I alt-tabbed (playing in windowed mode) to pause, then used Cheat Engine to control the camera, fov, and rotation (with arrow keys).
It's not a great shot, but it demonstrates the possibilities. I'm not a big fan of the DoF they're using... and a lot of the assets really don't look too great up close.

The lighting in the new DLC is much better than the base game. It's almost pre-downgrade.

The outdoor section of both Metro games still blow me away. And I am loving the look of the Redux 2033.

To contrast, I love how well it handles darkness. The Metro series and The Last of Us do darkness so, so well.
@Stallion Thanks for the framerate info on Silent Hill
I really appreciate good motion blur. Stick with it if you like it too.
Yup.

A year and a half later (Korean release), still a pretty game (during daylight).

There's no question that the redux is an improvement over the original when it comes to animation, character models, textures, and surface levels.
The lighting is tougher to judge. This is the part of the game I've seen that has seen the biggest changes -- some for the better and some for the worse. When it comes to the lighting, I fall somewhere in the middle.

I think it's easy to see why Metro 2033 was so demanding on hardware. The lighting and various other effects look pretty intensive compared to the Redux. I think in many places the Redux and LL look sort of flatter. Not sure how to describe it. The lighting in the original Metro seemed to add a lot of depth to the scene. Some of the other effects seem to have a similar impact. Not sure if it's depth of field too but there's something about it that stands out.
The models and textures generally look like they've been improved though.

Warlords of Draenor. A couple of Asrhan, the PvP zone (like Wintergrasp/Tol Barad). Also serves as your faction hub in Draenor.
