You're trying too hard xabre, no, really, you are.
SCEE is a 3rd party?
Motorstorm is in development at Evolution studios who already showed this gen that they're capable of excellent graphics. Plus GT clearly isn't as long in development as Motorstorm (PD was working on GT4 till February and then there's also GT4 mobile). And "Vision" clearly states that this was made a few week's work.

There's a discrepancy because

Visually, this(Fifth Phantom Saga) was one of the more simple PS3 demos, while also being one of the few that was clearly and undeniably running gameplay and not perhaps concept rendering. The game is clearly a very, very early project.

And no that doesn't mean the reality of the PS3 is a dissapointment, so save it.

Very interesting. I wonder will any ps3 games be playable. One of the most impressive demos was the epic demo though which was clearly realtime. I'll wait to see games running on final hardware before I decide which one gets my cash. No way I'm spending $400 apiece for more than one console.
Look, however you all want to spin it, there is a discrepency in the shots released so far and IMO this discrepency is so obvious that you could mistake the games for entirely different systems. This leads me to the conclusion that the less spectacular looking games, such as eyedentify and fifth phantom saga look like total arse compared with the likes of killzone or motor storm so much so that the later two couldn't possibly be running on the same hardware. Therefore, the later two games are pre-rendered and make use of in-game assets such as models and effects to give an artists impression of how they believe the end product will look.

What an odd thread. Of course PS3 games, like 360 games are going to vary wildly in quality depending on how long the dev has had to work on the game and the scene they would show, how many they assets they had at their disposal, etc..
I think the moral of this thread is that crashing buggy screenshots excite gamers and frighten fanboys.

"Pointless 1st gen vs 5th gen comparison."
How is it pointless?

It's not pointless. What you have is a developer that knows what they're doing vs. one that doesn't.
But here's 2 launch games for ya

I think the moral is that no mater how hard one tries to point out the bleedin' obvious, people stick steadfast to what they hope in spite of what the reality actually is, i.e. gullibility.
I know PS3 is an impressive piece of kit because killing day was real-time and it was very impressive; however motor storm and killzone were sure as hell not realtime, but I suppose if your happy to live in fictitious land where pre-rendered movies are accepted as real-time graphics then so be it.

Oh come on, didn't someone post a preemptive reminder thread of PS2's tech demos to counter this exact thread?
Anyway, the shots others are providing clearly show that developers can create wildly different visuals on the same hardware. I'm not sure why you are having such a hard time accepting this.
I don't know what you posted but it sure looks like one; full of pixellation.
Have a look at the Tekken 6 shot form the link I posted above, do you think that is a real-time grab? Compare it to the characters from Eyedentify...the image quality of the Tekken shot clearly shows it to be CG. Why is it so hard for you to consider the prospect that at least some of the demos shown were concepts of what they believe the end product will look like? Why is this so inconceivable? This is not a knock on PS3, just an observation.

It's a PS2 game and another example of how games on the same platform can look drastically different depending on the developer.
xabre said:
Eidentify is an adventure game and Tekken 6 is a fighting game. Fighting games almost always have the best character models due to them only having 2 characters on screen at once. Another thing to remember is that NAMCO just got done creating the best looking fighter on the PS2 in T5, they've always been really good when it comes to graphics. I'll wait to see what NAMCO says about it. Alot of people really believed that early screen of Jin from the PS2 conference was CG too even though it wasn't.

I totally agree that some of the stuff shown is pre-rendered. But the stuff I basically feel is 100% real-time has me as hyped about the PS3 as the pre-rendered stuff. That's all.

I can tell you that Insomniac's FPS, Killing Day, FFVII and a few other games were real-time. And they were impressive. Stop the damage control already.

Taken down a notch or knocked back a peg? Its one or the other not both.
I will admit there are some discrepencies but that might be due to the different developers and not the system. Are we to pretend that GoW doesn't exist because we have PDZ shown being hit with the ugly stick?
