Looks familiar to that render...

 

[Widfara]

PRETTYY COLORZ

 

[monchi-kun]

in the absence of PGR 3 looks like this will be the game i get for launch

 

[op_ivy]

lol that had to be released to make a few gaffers eat their hats

shame its not 60fps, cause i think it looks pretty decent

 

[radrelic]

Garbage.

 

[bobjuice]

^^^

Well it's not a japanese box, but still, kinda nice.

 

[Raistlin]

Wow ... can't believe I'm saying this ...

... but, good job EA! Nice art!

 

[Insertia]

The lighting in the render is like 10x better.

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

Dope shit

 

[Tamashii]

Wow, first the new Tiger Woods 06 X360 images look solid, now this; EA is on a freakin' roll (and I'm not the type of person to compliment EA so easily).

 

[Ryck]

: | .......I don't know why but it doesn't look that great to me.

 

[Dagless M.D.]

......nice art

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Well, color me surprised. The only real difference is the softer lighting look the render has.

 

[dark10x]

Heh, I like it. Looks pretty damn nice.

However, as with PGR3, the lack of 60 fps is a serious problem.

:crosses "call mountain dew to switch free game to madden" off to-do list:

:lol

that looks like a game i REALLY want to play.

 

[Straightballin]

I hate the "just add light bloom" look

 

[Doom_Bringer]

Love the enviornment, reminds of the french track from NFS High Stakes.

That's what I was thinking. The shot reminds me a lot of High Stakes and Porsche Unleashed. It's actually really nice.

 

[op_ivy]

when i first opened the thread and saw part of the new pic i laughed a bit, thinking it was a bash EA thread.

of course seeing both side by side yu can nit pick details, but surprisingly, its no where near as big a difference as i would have thought seeing some of the other shots that have been released.

the game doesnt look bad, but certainly not great. at 60 fps with graphics like this, i'd be much more interested. otherwise, there are just to many awesome games that deserve my money

 

[Shabaz]

Praise be to EA!

 

[Suburban Cowboy]

in my opinion that screen would represent what the average next gen game will look like. Its in no way bad or disappointing, but its no more than expected.

 

[Dr.Guru of Peru]

So...what explains the shit screens we saw the other day?

 

[GhaleonEB]

in my opinion that screen would represent what the average next gen game will look like. Its in no way bad or disappointing, but its no more than expected.

I think the term is, "good for a launch title". I don't think this will look great 18 months from now.

 

[joaomgcd]

Why are there dry leaves all over this game's roads? Every pic I've seen has those blurred, oversized brown leaves lying on the road.. :/

 

[PhatSaqs]

So...what explains the shit screens we saw the other day?

Yeah really. This huge disparity between the media EA has released is worrisome.

Chalk it up to Beta kits?

Spoiler

or PS3 versions

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

You can tell a positive 360 thread by the lack of participants in the thread :lol

Seriously...I actually missed the latest Madden screens thread because it dropped off the front page so quick :lol

 

[human5892]

Looks pretty good, but like someone else pointed out, this is a pretty big disparity compared to those other abortions of screenshots. Maybe those were PC shots after all.

the others were 640 x 480

Same here. That shot is really pretty. Has a very nice atmosphere to it.

 

[jimbo]

Wow that looks, dar I say, almost on par with PGR3. I might have to get this.

 

[fartblast]

all sorts of mapping going on in that shit goodamn o__O

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

Looks pretty good. Though if I decide to pick up a racer it'll be PGR3 despite if it's a launch title or not. I can wait.

 

[newsguy]

Damn, so far EA leads the pack with screenshot inconsistency. Thankfully they are going from bad to good and not vice versa.

no, that would be rare

 

[DCX]

Nice,very Nice!!

[Agent Icebeezy]

I know people read our posts. It has to come as validation or a we told you so about these. Shit was in dire straits back in May. Things are on the up and up now

 

[Blimblim]

1280x820 version

And yes, 820. Not a typo...

 

[Ceb]

Unless the leaves on the road are gonna get kicked up by the passing cars, why even bother adding them? They sort of look like they're fossilized...

Nice to see a change of scenery though, but it really does look inferior to the render. Shame on you, EA.

 

[Shompola]

The target render is IMO way better. Look at the soft look it has compared to the rough and sharp one on the Xbox 360 version.

 

[DCX]

[DMX] " Here comes the bloom, here comes the bloom..." [/DMX]

DCX

 

[Hajaz]

the road surface is just too shiny for me in this game

 

[dark10x]

Yeah, the target render has a lot of additional details missing from the other shot. From the softer look, to the shadows and the reflections.

 

[commish]

the road surface is just too shiny for me in this game

What if it had just rained and that was the sun's reflection off of the water?

 

[Hyoushi]

There we go, EA are back! :lol :lol :lol

 

[joshschw]

What if it had just rained and that was the sun's reflection off of the water?

in every screenshot and video?

 

[FiRez]

So...what explains the shit screens we saw the other day?

Those were from the PC version

 

[Jibber Hack]

Methinks I'm going to be very happy with this game at launch. Looks hot!

 

[dorio]

I think this looks better. Screw that soft look. Anyone can throw blur effect on a screen.

 

[urk]

Yeah, the target render is better. Check out the tree shadows on the road, the trees themselves, the glass reflection, and the realistic lighting effects.

That said, the comparison shot looks decent. Much better than previous NFS stuff. If they can dial that bllom down from eleven and maybe tone down the normal mapped road surface, things would look quite a bit better.
