I think Need For Speed:MWU compares quite well with NFS:Rivals, to the point where I could see a 720p version on Wii U, with all features intact(though it won't happen). The console could prove to be quite a capable little machine if only devs/pubs cared enough to invest the effort. That's why I'm anxious to see how Project Cars is going to look on it.

Nice pic, by the way! I have to give props to GG for not being afraid to actually use some color in KillZone. It's makes such a big difference!

 

[Timu]

And yes that last shot is gameplay with the HUD off.

 

[LittleJohnny]

Wow that texture is not looking so hot right there.

Streaming textures hadn't kicked in, but what you say other than... Internetz!

Those of you who wish to export the PS4 screenshots without uploading them to Facebook or Twitter, you can attach them via PSN messages and retrieve those attachments through the messages in PlayStation App. I saved them to my Photo Stream on iOS and got them on my computer that way.

Unfortunately you cannot send messages to yourself so you will need a buddy or a dummy account.

Inconvenient workaround but it works. I tested with my brother and I managed to get the 1080p 260KB JPG out.

Quick and dirty next gen faces comparison. Only one that was resized is the Assassins Creed one (downsampled to fit), otherwise the others are all 1:1 pixel crops from their original 1080p capture.

This is probably definitely my bias speaking but I prefer Shadowfall. Crysis 3's would look better if the face chosen wasn't so gaunt and I'm not a fan of BF4's faces at all, looks like someone smeared vaseline over all of them and every character seems to have weird cuts.

How do you get the full res screenshots?

Woah, thanks! If you have a Vita you can download it through a message as well and either send it to your email or copy it to your computer with Content Manager Assistant.

Just tried it with this pic.

It's still a bit compressed but it is much cleaner.

I use a capture card.

Locked to Twitter and Facebook right now. Eventually we'll be able to export via USB

Shit, guess no screen captures for me then. Hopefully it's soon.

Someone should post a comparison of the messages and Facebook options.

What's the lighting KZ is using?

I don't think they're using any 3rd party lighting engine so it's built in house.

You should probably spoiler that second one.

 

[PumpkinPie]

Just stole this from Eurogamer's video, so not great quality. I've never seen anything look as good as this. Incredible.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Tell me you have this in higher quality. I want to make it my wallpaper. D:

Battlefield's faces are weird. They're mapped after the voice performers. Sometimes it looks like there's too much blur or something being applied. Other times they look fantastic.

There's hardly any difference between FB and Twitter uploads.

Not really much of difference between the two. Both seem to chop the already too small filesizes in half.

Desperately need PNG > USB export ASAP.

 

[Vorundor]

Pikmin 3 - some of the best natural lighting in any game. Wii "Roots" and all. Brilliant.

Let me know if there is anything else you guys want to see.

I need this game now. @_@

 

[foxuzamaki]

Damn, night and day. AC looks like a cartoon

If you think it looks like a cartoon than that most likely has to do with artstyle.

Looks much better, you guys should use this method from now on. I hope the xbox one allows screencaps.

That looks great, almost as good as Ryse, the teeth look well done too. Hope we can compare soon.

What is "Messages"?

Also can't you use the web browser to upload directly to Abload or Minus?

Attaching the screenshot to a message and sending it to someone then downloading the picture from the PlayStation App or the Messages app on the Vita.

Just tried minus and abload from the browser and they don't work :/

Can't get enough of Killzone Shadowfall's visual splendor.

just edited it. didn't know how to put an image in spoiler tags so I just linked it and put a spoiler warning in front

 

[Pitmonkey]

720p from my understanding.

 

[Pitmonkey]

My PS4 should be arriving tomorrow morning, hyped. I'll post some shots here if I can (I have an external capture card so the quality should be pretty good, no compression).

Unless you have an HDCP stripper or DVI converter external capture cards won't work as of yet.

 

[phosphor112]

What do you mean? It's their own engine.

This should be in OP.

 

[Timu]

Recording videos may not work unless you use Fraps or Bandicam for software recording, but taking screenshots from them does using Fraps or Bandicam, and external capture cards like Roxio, Elgato, Avermedia, PVR2 all work with the PS4 for screenshots.

 

[Satchel]

They do. There's a shit tonne of compression in some of these shots. In-fact, in some like for like scenario's even Gamersyde's video grabs look sharper lol. Having said that, these really look fugly to you?

/pics/

Your re-posts look nicer. The only one that look s odd (not visually, but just....odd) is the one of the Helgan on the ground.

Other than that. Pretty.

I need to ask, as someone who liked KZ3 and ated KZ2, will I like SF?

 

[VanWinkle]

Quick and dirty next gen faces comparison. Only one that was resized is the Assassins Creed one (downsampled to fit), otherwise the others are all 1:1 pixel crops from their original 1080p capture.

Faces are all nicely detailed. I prefer the skin shaders on KZ from those.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

Yeah IMO pikmin is the all arond best game on Wii U right now... plus the best graphics IMO... and just to think this started as a Wii game. I really want Pikmin 4 ground up with new engine.... people are not ready!

Slightly off topic(but on the topic of reused engines), isn't KZSF using a modified KZ3 engine? Or is it an all new engine built for next gen?

 

[phosphor112]

I'm sure it's all based on the same stuff, but the lighting is mostly new. Almost all dynamic. No more "point" lights either. It's all area lights.

 

[teh_pwn]

Lord the last 2 pages have been full of fugly.

Even the Killzone shots posted in the last page or 2 have looked downright average. Surely all these games look way better than some of these screens.

Having just played through Killzone, and being a PC gamer, I'll say that Killzone's graphics are very inconsistent. There areas without much going on, low resolution textures, not a lot of geometry, and frivolous use of flare and other effects. Then there are levels with next gen effects and large scale (beginning of chapter 4). Seems to me the game originated on PS3 or was a rushed launch title. I expect that PS4 titles in 2 years will be defined by:
1. Large scale
2. No load times
3. Areas with texture bombs - areas where the tiniest of details in game are high enough resolution that you can read papers/ads/warning signs/pictures.

Ansisotropic filtering would also be nice.

PS4 shots are looking great, so are Wii U! Its about time Nintendo took the proper HD jump.

Hmmm...I think the AC4 face is better. Just seems more vibrant and less plasticy. Honestly, they all look good but I think it's simply a matter of personal artistic taste at this point.

 

[Mashing]

Those faces look more detailed than what was in FF: Spirits Within movie IMO. It's very hard to pull off imperfection in human skin, but developers are making fantastic headway in that regard.

We should include Ryse.

 

[Pitmonkey]

Can we keep these facial comparisons for a separate thread? Not hating what so ever, just out of context for this threads intent.

That said - I'm constantly surprised with Assassin's Creed 4 for the Wii U. The texture work is so far beyond AC3 it's laughable.

 

[mo60]

Wow at some of the shots in this thread especially the shots from Killzone SF and some of the WiiU games.

 

[Timu]

What are you using to capture?

Roxio, but I use either Bandicam or Fraps for taking screenshots of PNG, BMP and TGA.
