Xenos > 7800 GTX 512MB SLI?

:'(

 

[olimario]

Those look like bad captures.

WTF happened to the gRaPhX?

Xenos > 7800 GTX 512MB SLI?

:'(

Is someone other than Monolith doing a port from the X360 version? WTF is going on there? *scratches head*

Those jsut look like bad captures.

It's more than that. The geometry and lighting seems different, as are some textures. Fucking hell, it looks like a different game!

 

[Lil' Dice]

That's because the 360 is a BEAST!

 

[Mrbob]

Wow. That looks like an Xbox version.

BUY 360 Borys. Even PC developers know what the superior platform is now.

 

[heavy liquid]

Wow, I didn't expect that the difference would be so big. Looks pretty awful.

 

[Spider_Jerusalem]

Wow, it could easily be an Xbox version of the game... maybe it's a cheap'n'dirty porting.

Edit: and it's three wows in a row :lol

 

[Funky Papa]

Those pics are resized, the originals are 800*600 instead 640*480. Not that this changes much, they are still horrible looking.

Looks like some PR peep needs to buy a new video card or tweak the graphics settings.

 

[Oni Jazar]

I don't see much of a difference besides the lower resolution.

 

[Borys]

Shog: can you scratch my head also?

This is really puzzling to say the least.

Mrbob: it's not that I didn't think about that option. That would be the greatest betrayal in history, The Betrayal of Betraylas!

 

[Ranger X]

I tend to believe it's the quality of the screens here. Seriously, is it that much different?

**waiting for nice comparison pics** ( i know, i know, most of the time they suck)

 

[Robobandit]

PC AM CRY - Sega brings tears to us! That said.. look like shit total + 1

 

[Shogmaster]

Shog: can you scratch my head also?

Did you shampoo this morning?

 

[tedtropy]

"Oh no you did'eh!"

 

[Vark]

ouch.

 

[Borys]

Did you shampoo this morning?

Garnier Fructis, just like everyday

 

[Shogmaster]

Garnier Fructis, just like everyday

*scratch scratch*

 

[Jerkface]

:lol

F.E.A.R. should look awesome on the 360 then!

 

[Vieo]

It's pretty obvious what's going on here. Don't make me spell it out for you.

 

[nubbe]

I don’t think they look all that different… Possibly the X360 manages to push it at a higher resolution with better textures and AA.

 

[El_Victor]

Sell all your PC's it's all over.

 

[mckmas8808]

It's pretty obvious what's going on here. Don't make me spell it out for you.

Spell, spell, spell, spell!!!

 

[Deg]

Looks like very low settings. Hell FEAR can look like an n64 game if you want

MS USED MONEYHATS TO COERCE DEVELOPER INTO MAKING SHITTY PORT!

I BELEEVE!

I've played my PC less and less as time goes on. I prefer the ease of use of a console. KB/M hurts my hands quicker than a controller - and I'm on a fucking PC all day at work too - that doesn't help.

Also have gotten tired of the constant upgrade cycle. 360 FTW!

360 and PS3 are upgrades?

CONSPIRACY. C-O-N SPIRACY!

 

[Shogmaster]

It almost looks like the X360 version captured through a TV tuner card @ 640x480 or something....

 

[Gek54]

It almost looks like the X360 version captured through a TV tuner card @ 640x480 or something....

Seriously, its got to be on a super low detail setting or something.

 

[Dr_Cogent]

You're kidding me right?

I'm talking about upgrading mobo, memory, CPU, video card, blah blah blah over and over again.

Xbox 360 and PS3 are closed systems.

 

[TerryLee81]

BUY 360 Borys. Even PC developers know what the superior platform is now.

Sooner or later he will buy one, I'm sure.

As soon as there are some great western RPGs, Borys will get weak.

 

[Lil' Dice]

Seriously, its got to be on a super low detail setting or something.

You're such a fucking hater :lol
Will it kill you to give the 360 some credit for once?

 

[elostyle]

This just in! F.E.A.R is hideous!

Idiots. It will look identical to the 360 version with the right settings.

 

[Robobandit]

You're such a fucking hater :lol
Will it kill you to give the 360 some credit for once?

there is no reason that this game can't look as good or better than it does on the 360, so anything less than comparable (especially at such a low resolution) and considering how great F.E.A.R. looks on a pc (the same fucking engine) = lazy ass developers and shitty port

even if they are just low res and low settings, why on earth would those be the first screens they put out.. its just stupid

 

[Funky Papa]

and considering how great F.E.A.R. looks on a pc (the same fucking engine) = lazy ass developers and shitty port

Or PR person taking caps with lowered settings.

No, that makes way too much sense.

 

[Ark-AMN]

Indeed, Condemned freaking uses the FEAR engine, there's no way it will look worse than that game with the proper settings.

 

[elostyle]

I doubt that it's even a port, it was probably developed for the PC to begin with.

 

[Robobandit]

Or PR person taking caps with lowered settings.

No, that makes way too much sense.

Why does it make sense unless the PR person is working for Microsoft instead of Sega?

 

[Funky Papa]

Because this stuff happens quite oftenly.

 

[elostyle]

There are marketing people that release screenshots with placeholder art in this industry. You know, the kind of placeholder art that consists of one color and what it is supposed to represent spelled out on it.

 

[Seventh Son]

That's because the 360 is a BEAST!

a beast in impersonating Xbox1 mirite

 

[Tain]

Will it kill you to give the 360 some credit for once?

It just that there's zero reason for this. No sense whatsoever for effort to be put into making the game look worse when the engine's already on the PC in the first place.

So, yeah, I expect it to look exactly like the 360 version in the end, but these screenshots are a huge wtf.

 

[Deg]

Or PR person taking caps with lowered settings.

No, that makes way too much sense.

Most pc games arent shown in their highest settings in most PR shots.

Lice family: "Let's go folks!"

-------------------------------------

1) Any person who thinks high-end PC can't run a game like Condemned in same settings (quality) as 360 is dumb.
2) Any person who thinks those shots are shitty because MS said so is even dumber.
3) PC devs can't take screenshots for shit. It's almost always no AA, no AF and some ancient Win95 resolution. When there are PS2 shots in 1280, 360 shots in 2560 and PC shots in 640 res you know something is wrong.

 

[Leonsito]

Never forget... the sides are turning!

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

Don't we have some dude from Monolith around that we can harass about this?

I disagree with number 3. Usually anyone posting PC screens will do so on max settings. Especially if the shots are coming from the devs. These shots are obviously not what the final product will look like unless you have an ancient PC (like me).


On the same note, anyone that thinks those shitty FCK screens are indicative of the final product are also "dumb".
