3 "new" PGR3 images

The Inside Track
Bizarre said:
We are very proud to release three new high-definition PGR3 screen grabs, taken from the in-game video shown recently on British TV.

Our PGR3 announcement video, first shown on the MTV show, was aired this week on the British cable channel MotorsTV. The following screen grabs (taken from the video) are in-game, taken from real hardware. However, be aware that due to the time required to prepare in advance for E3, these images are all taken from an older build of the game.

Remember, these are not pre-rendered like the previously released movie clip. This is 100% running on real Xbox 360 hardware.

Things to look out for:

* High-definition - these stills are exactly how the game will appear on your HDTV.
* New York City - NYC returns to the Gotham franchise like never before. Take a close look at the buildings to see the detail.
* Realistic camera - simulating real-life effects like depth of field and motion blur for increased realism.
* Advanced lighting effects - new reflections on car bodies, shadows on the tarmac, and shiny windscreen glare from the sun.
* Crowd - Thousands of motion-captured, fully 3d spectators line the streets, and react to your racing.
* New cars - Featured here are the McLaren F1 LM, the Ferrari 360CS, and the TVR Sagaris.

Bolding this specific part before haters.

the first one is new, as far as I can remember

the last one looks very familiar, though (not sure about the middle one)








thanks for the heads up, Blimblim :)
 
Well, it's all taken from the movie we've seen 26093460873096 times since E3 (and a movie that was obviously "in-game" stuff.)
Nice to see those screenshots anyway ;)
 
Gorges. Gorges.

One thing I have been unable to discern is if the cars are self reflecting. If anyone remembers that shot of the front of the ferrar430 (atleast I think it was a 430) from the ourcolony days, it had some very obvious self reflection. Was it ever determined if that was a render or using in game assets?

EDIT - I guess this also confirms that the motion blur is infact done in the engine and is not a photoshop added to images taken from the game.

This Ferrari was looking billion times better than the cars here and was CG that's for sure. I would bet it's part of the CG intro of the game.
 
well, these may be running on a 360 kit at 10 FPS, and the video was "rendered" to get the FPS up, but was likely using all in game assets.

This game looks fucking awesome.

That just looks awful. I don't think the focus on the car while everything is that blurred looks right.

Good thing you put the disclaimer that these images are early blimblim because they don't look good.

However, its interesting to see the GI of the CG trailer gone. This will be an interesting one when its out. Let's see if they can pull of the visuals on X360. Bizarre will have their work cut out for them.

edit: GI = global illumination. I called the trailer = CG. Guess I was right. :/
 
It looks pretty frikkin good for something that'll be released now or soon...

but it just doesn't strike me as next gen stuff.
 
This whole next-gen preview thing is ridiculous. All this "early build" bullshit looks like it can be done with the current Xbox power + bloom lighting, so nevermind then!

this thread needs more trolling to be a proper xbox 360 screenshot thread

so far we have:
"looks awful, everything is blurred"

"buildings look worse than gta3"

"doesn't look next-gen"

you need to be more creative guys! ok ok the gta3 comment was rather creative, I guess. Where are the xbox 1.5 comments , or RE4 looks better than this comments?

Get the fook outta' here. I think you need to put your space helmet back on bubble boy. GTAnything looks like shite compared to these shots.

Heh, just wait till the PS3 threads. People have really fucking high expectations.
They still think that going from 640x480 with no AA to 1280x720 with 4xAA costs nothing...

It looks like an N64 game (if it was CD-based)
 
Did some of you people even read what Blimblim posted? Or do you simply have a copy/paste checklist of X360 related replies.
 
Odnetnin said:
does it look awesome then for a next gen ingame image? I mean, without the blur, it could be PGR2.


or Forza.

AGAIN :lol some of you are simply insane or just on crack or both even. everything from the lighting to the textures to the sheer amount of polys(look at the structures as well as lamposts, street lights and everything else) this destroys any racer from this gen without even trying. WTF. could be pgr2? :lol

regarding that trailer...
This video was created using actual in-game models and assets from PGR3, and not ones specifically made for the video. So the level of detail you see here will be not only matched, but surpassed in the game itself, as the models are getting more and more detailed as development goes on.

Nice. Damn I can't wait to get my HDTV.

Some people are obviously trolling. I mean if you can call this "awful" then you need to show me what a next gen racer is supposed to look like. Because you must know. I mean surely you have seen and played something that looks much better, if you can say this game looks awful. So please, go ahead. Because I must be missing out on something.

That car looks like Master Chief's armor. I don't know how you can say that looks like a car.

This doesn't look like a blurry, bumpmapped messed

Dude do you even know what bumpapping means? Good try. :lol
 
It may not be, but the depth on the car's hood looks just like the horrible faked depth found on masterchief. The top car may not be the best, but it's not fucked up like the bottom one.

all of the top cars detail is in textures... it has nowhere near the polys the pgr3 car has. you are a shmuck

With the awful compression artefacts I have a hard time seeing any detail on the car. But you are such an incredible art critic that I'm sure you can see more stuff than us common humans.

The "depth"? WTF? It looks like a reflective hood with the shadows from the trees or buildings casted on it, just as it should.

You should know that polys don't mean shit if they aren't used right. This generation the top car was the closest thing to being realistic as far as racing titles go. The bottom one here couldn't fool a 3 year old.

It looks beyond fake. You guys should NOT be championing something that looks as bad as that does, high poly count or not.
 
:lol

Polys don't mean shit? I thought it was bump mapped. You shouldn't talk about what looks good or not after you got done pimping that bland shit hole of a MMORPG.

Wow just wow. I give up with you dude. You're right. It looks like shit. I'm sure you're playing some racing game right now that looks like the real deal. So go have fun with that, and just don't ever worry about PG3. Because you clearly don't need to be here. We've got your input. Thanks. You deffinitely changed my mind.

Oh btw even this guy has more "depth" than you do.

Next Gen: Just Set the Bar Low
I can't believe some of you are as pleased with next gen as you are when this is what we're getting. The jump ain't what it used to be and the car still doesn't look good.
 
olimario hates...I'm not sure, Bump-mapped games with bad art on platforms called Xbox developed by MS Games Studio developers?

;)
