The "bad art" show may now begin.
 
I love it.

Kameo is a solid #2 for my Xbox 360 most wanted right after PD0.

Something tells me that a Game Over screen isn't too far away...
 
beautiful

I don't really need anymore Kameo media after what I saw at TGS to be honest

I'm as sold on the game as one can be :lol
 
These don't look quite as good as the last batch released.

Shadows in the second shot in particular look pretty bad.

Still, it's Rare and a big X360 game, so I'm sure it'll be good.

Sweet! I hope Nintendo's ATI chip is comparable to the X360's -- the next cel-shaded/WindWaker-esque Zelda should look freakin' awesome.
 
Beautiful game, some of the screens are amazing.

Art looks pretty good too imho.

I just don't have any faith in Rare anymore though. Wouldn't mind being proven wrong though.

Nice ass btw :D

#2 game just behind PDZ
 
This game is looking really good. Like true next-gen good.

My guess is Kameo makes launch, and PDZ gets the delay. But even if Perfect Dark comes out by the end of the year, that might as well be launch. Although I'm not convinced it won't slip into next year.

Nice, but how come the pics still aren't anti-aliased?
Perhaps it is the result of some of the effects they are using?

Maybe they are trying to create a better contrast between sharp objects and those affected by various levels of blurring? I don't think AA will be necessary...
 

Isn't that the sidekick from Star Fox Adventures pretty much?

This game looks so average to me. Would you really be exicted about this if it wasn't a launch game for a next-gen console? I think we both know the answer to that. OR DO WE?

And before you slag me off for "trolling": isn't it as much being a troll to have nothing but relentless praise for something so undeserving of it?

Are you kidding?

Eventually, the game will be anti-aliased, but I wonder what's taking so long.

only a handful of people really cared for Kameo until BlimBlim and Gamespot posted their videos and impressiosn. Since then its pretty much been on everyone's launch list not only here but on most other forums . Im even shoked at how well the game looks and plays. Looks like great fun

Have you seen the TGS vids?
 
That first shot is niiiiiice. Neato effects. I like this batch more than previous ones, as there's more stuff going on and it's indicative of actual gameplay. Some of the earlier shots had me really scratching my head as to how anyone could be anticipating Kameo's release, but now I can see the appeal.
 
I hope these screens don't respresent the actual in-game camera, cause if they do the game will make me sick. Rare platformers have had problems with that sort of thing.

Advice to Rare camera designers: BACK UP! The character doesn't need to be 6 inches from the camera.
 
That first pic may not be bad art, but it looks like a bad trip. Anyone know what's going on in the game to make it look like that, some weird spell or something?
 
xbots:
- amazing!!!
- OH MY GAWD!111
- looks like pixar just bettar

sony-people:
- looks complete shit
- it isn't MGS4
- CELL

the truth lies in between.
 
I really don't like the look of the game, so I'm hoping the gameplay makes up for it... =\

(And who else is absolutely sick of motion blur?)
 
What happened to the guaranteed 8x Anisotropic filtering in every X360 game? Did they just forget to turn it on in these shots? It's difficult for me to not have it anymore.

Other than that, these look great. This has now become a must have launch title for me. Co-op baby! :D

P.S. I should say this to clarify... I remember reading some time ago that ALL X360 games, by default, will have on 4x FSAA and 8x AF. These shots obviously have neither.

Has this 'rule' changed? I hope not... that really appealed to me, as I love ATI's AA and image quality.

Focus mode, slows down time so you can for example use the plant uppercut to launch an ennemy in the air, than change to the ice creature to finish them while they are still flying. Makes some nice combos.

you live in a shanty. pay no attention to the homeless man.

I honestly did not mean it as a troll. There is just something about this game I do not care for. I guess I can use the dreaded "I don't care for the art" excuse.
 
It doesn't look bad, but I'm not too terribly impressed, the game still has that "last generation assets with next-gen effects layered on top" look to it. You can tell it was originally started on less powerful hardware.

I think you just hit the nail on the head for me.

Camera is free, totally up to the player.

Actually, I've been interested in Kameo since I tried the Gamecube version at E3 before the cube and xbox even came out. It had promise then, and now it looks pretty amazing.

Take a look at my or Gamespot's videos of the TGS build for a good idea of how the camera works. Seemed fine to me.
 
I must say that Kameo looked great at TGS, I was really surprised. This shots are taken from a "dramatic" position, but for the time I passed playing, I don´t think cameras will be an issue.

I suppose you will have to see it for judge yourself. But it looks great in motion, and it feels quite epic. I think it has potential.
 
Is it weird that I cannot honestly say bad art or think these screens are dissappointing in any way? Why does that underwater pic make me feel so tingly inside?

I totally agree. I was planning on getting the game when it was in development for the 'Cube, so if I get a 360, this will definitely be on my list.

I'm not even close to being an Xbot (in fact, MS is my least liked company of the big 3), but I still say these are AMAZING!!!
