Now THAT looks next gen

 

[LakeEarth]

Before anyone jumps on him for posting 'old news', none of the pics shown in the other thread work anymore. Better quality too. So this thread is welcome.

 

[C- Warrior]

Hmm...

Dead or Alive 4 = Miss

Perfect Dark = Miss

Wonder how GAF will treat Ghost Recon?

 

[Hellraizah]

Now that looks good.

 

[Socreges]

HOT

 

[dark10x]

That looks really nice. I would have been disappointed yesterday, as it doesn't really seem to look that much better than top PC games, but after the other 360 games shown today...that looks amazing. :\

 

[Smiles and Cries]

After seeing PDZ this looks like it has been created by GOD

looks damn good

can't shake Metroid Prime coming to mind though

 

[tsp_gatmog]

this place is runnin slow...how will it be monday?

 

[VictimOfGrief]

HAWTT.

Linking incase IGN goes down.

That looks like its airbrushed. Is that really in game?

 

[golem]

the brief clip on MTV was pretty good

 

[soul.less]

Now THIS looks like a next-generation game.

 

[Rorschach]

Ubi for the save.

 

[Johnas]

this place is runnin slow...how will it be monday?

Yeah, it's like molasses for me. It should melt when E3 comes.

This game really looks better than PDZ and DOA4, but it's nothing astounding yet. I'm sure it will look great in motion.

 

[automagnus]

Our frothing demand increases

 

[Kai]

This looks better, but does anyone else kinda see what Iwata was talking about now? I at least kind of do as I am seeing these screen shots come out.... it's not necessarily about graphcis anymore because these arn't looking all that much different than current generation games.....

I dunno, I guess my curiosity has now peaked regarding "innovative" ways to play versus a few more polygons and a nice "glowing screen" effect.....

Anyone else feel the same?

 

[Insertia]

It's not too impressive imo.

It looks good (i guess), but nothing about it really phases me.

 

[pxleyes]

True, THIS looks like a next-gen game (at least a first-gen one).

 

[ge-man]

Now this is impressive. UbiSoft has shown up most of everyone (with the possible exception of PGR developers).

 

[TheTurtleTitan]

Probably the best looking 360 game so far.

 

[golem]

From TXB:

its so reeel

 

[The Faceless Master]

man, the one AWESOME looking game is the type of game i don't like... :/

but DAMN it looks awesome!

 

[Mrbob]

Is it this bad we have to resort to splooging over GR3?

This looks like a high res PC title.

It looks better than PD0 for sure. But it looks like something I can run on my 9800PRO.

 

[AirBrian]

Lighting is HOT! Best-looking 360 game to date.

 

[Manders]

looks pretty good. maybe it won't be the xbox 1.5 afterall...

 

[Doube D]

eh, it looks much better than the other crap shown but next gen? I don't know maybe us pc gamers have been spoiled but put this next to a high rez high settings frame of Half life 2 and you got a tie AT BEST (IMO HL2 wins hands down).

 

[siege]

Somewhere Iwata is rubbing his hands together in front of his face thinking, 'It has begun.'

...and yea, I feel the same way.

 

[Lord Error]

This looks good but not great. I think Full Spectrum Warrior was quite close as good looking as this, in fact.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

This looks next-gen. But fuck, PD0 WTF.

Still at least this gives confidence when it comes to X360's power. Not going to make much of a difference if very few games at launch actually push the machine in anyway :/

 

[quin]

we used to get oversized pics of games and now they give us shrunken versions. I want actual size pics

 

[Baron Aloha]

The lighting and the filters are what make this game look good. The geometry looks to be around HL2 levels. I expected slightly more from the first wave of next-gen games than this.

I don't get it. The hardware power is there so it can't be that. I think we are reaching a point where the technology is outpacing the developers. If you ask me, most of them haven't even realized the full potential of the current consoles (especially Xbox and Gamecube).

The devs better kick it into high gear because if people don't perceive a big difference then they won't upgrade and the entire industry will suffer.

 

[dark10x]

I'm interested in both, but I think you underestimate would can be done with visuals...

3D visuals have a LOOOONG way to go. We haven't reached the ceiling. Not enough close...

 

[byproduct]

It looks good... doesn't look like they're from the same system as those PD0 and DOA4 shots.

 

[Monk]

Meh, I was expecting next gen to be much harder to differentiate from real life.

 

[Doube D]

For comparison, a game runnin on a 9800 from last year:

The sony fanboy in me wants to jump in joy. The graphics whore in me wants to cry. WTF

 

[TheDuce22]

I dont understand the huge disparity between xbox 360 games. Some look almost photorealistic (nba2k, ghost recon) and other look like complete garbage.

 

[Suikoguy]

Yeah, underneath the umpteenth filters, it looks just like an average PC game of today.
Thanks for the HL2 images, that pretty much nails it.
Add the filters to HL2 and it would look even better.

But, considering you will be playing it with the filters, that looks really nice. Adds a nice effect. Unfortunatly it will only work with a game like that.

 

[FightyF]

DD: The shadows in HL2 don't take into account sources of light. That's a huge difference right there.

 

[xabre]

In motion this explotion scene is extremely impressive -

For comparison, a game runnin on a 9800 from last year:

Nah GR3 is a definite step up graphically from Half Life 2 and that is made all the more obvious by seeing the game in motion.

 

[Suikoguy]

Yah, but that one has no HUD, probably a cutscene. I won't deny it does look great though

 

[ChrisReid]

After ten Clancy games on the original XBox, I thought I might take a break from them for a while. God, hope this is a 360 launch title.

 

[Joe]

Yah, but that one has no HUD, probably a cutscene. I won't deny it does look great though

in the mtv.com trailer that scene is shown with a complete hud.

 

[C- Warrior]

In motion this explotion scene is extremely impressive -

.

I take your comment and raise it a hell fuckin yes.

UBI SOFT in with the save.

Hmmm, wonder how Prince of Persia 4 will look on Xbox 360....

 

[trmas]

Looks much better than any of the other crap we've seen so far...

Agreed completely. That explosion was almost eerie in how good it looked.

 

[Ghost]

These are still the scans, they do look good, but where are the real shots?


edit: Oh, guess they arent scans, then why are they all so bloody small?

 

[Gek54]

No shadow on your gun???

 

[Rhindle]

Higher-rez versions here: http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=25423&mode=thread&order=0

And those are still only half-resolution.

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

The screens don't too much for me and I'm not really a fan of GR, but I gotta agree that this looks amazing in motion.


An actual next gen title? Who'd a thunk it.
