New Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter Screens - Hires

i think people are overrating the graphics for this game... it looks good but it's too blocky, too polygonized, the normal maps are inconsistent (look at the sidewalk in the 3rd pic, looks good close but the opposite farther away)... the animation better be amazing. i'm getting it but more because of the big drought in 360 games and Live play rather than it looking hot

Nah, I don't think they're overrated at all. And it doesn't look blocky in the least. The animation in the new 1up videos looks pretty great, too. The hires texturing makes it look really nice :)

I think it looks nice, but I also think you have a point. Did anyone give a rat's ass about the Ghost Recon series before this game?

It's probably getting a lot of attention cause of the lack of titles on the 360. These shots look good, but nothing special. The gameplay from the 1up video looks nice, and I am sure 360 owners will love it.
 
Quite frankly i think you all setting yourselves up for many dissapointments during this genereration. Drought, or no drought this game looks amazing.
 
it's the yang to the yin of the other graw thread... lovers kissing screen over there, haters bah-humbugging over here. if you consider that it sounds and looks like the game takes place in different areas of what's essentially one ginourmous map [which stretches as far as the eye can see in the videos] then the simpler architecture makes sense. just look at the character models, the textures, the weapons... hell, the helicopter! it looks amazing and I can't wait to play this.

never played a GR game in my life. But this looks special

And i have plenty of 360 games to play, nothing to do with the drought

PDZ and PGR3 are still keeping me busy
 
I've seen this before... and I think they are from the target video (but not sure)

check out last week's 1up show, they have the game in motion and it looks awesome :)

This looks alot better then the videos that were recently posted...hmmm.. maybe those were multiplayer?

They were.

Unless you were referring to the footage in the last 1UP Show. That was single-player, and it looked great, so I don't see how you could be. ;)

Nope, these are fresh, new screens. note the hi-res textures, and the different looking Crosscom. Looks better than the target video, I think, because more is going on, and the lighting-detail is much higher (less bloom)
