Old? RE4 PS2 trailer

I think those are from one of the extra game modes correctly. Anyway, I am wondering if Screenshots have indeed lost thier ability to convery the true promise of a game since the vid of RE4 do look a lot better then the screenshots.
 
I think it looks fantastic in the trailer. You can see the downgrades if you are looking for them, but it actually comes off as a very accurate port. I was questioning whether or not it was actually PS2 footage up until they showed the PS2 HUD...

I wanna know what exactly!
 
Wow, that really looks fantastic. I can't believe Capcom pulled this off. If the extra features include a slew of new weapons I'm definitely picking this up. If Ada is somehow playable in the main game then I'm even more giddy.
 
I wonder if Capcom had a playable PS2 demo of the game on the showfloor.
Probably not otherwise we would have had already hands on impressions.

I can't wait to see a trailer of the load times...That could probably make a 2 minute trailer by itself. :lol
Hehe it looked a little too good for you huh? That's gotta hurt. I wonder what you will knock down on next when the loadtimes turns out to be good.
 
This looks quite inferior to the Cube version to my eyes, but I still think it looks damn fantastic, which goes to show you how good the game actuall looked. It is obvious that the game has worse IQ, lower res textures in a lot of places and there are some modeling hits. I won't harp on the lighting as that is usually one of the last graphical touches to be applied. Looks great, but noticably different from Cube in a few areas.
 
Watching the trailer gave me some good memories... have to play it again this summer. The graphics obviously took a hit but it's still pretty damn nice.

God, I love how you frame things sometimes. You bitch relentlessly about the GC version's graphics, but now "you have to look for" the downgrades to the PS2 version. Horseshit. For someone with such an apparently discerning eye, you sure do go blind when appropriate.

Yeah, same. I think I'm going to fire it up this weekend.

I just have to say WHO'S FUCKING RETARDED NOW?! HUH?! And the Winter release just gives them more time to polish the game...

and all you GC fanboys:

Uh, you're still retarded for waiting a whole year for a slightly graphically-watered down version of a game you can currently buy that will most likely have no more than an hour of new content (if even that).

Besides, we don't even know if they'll bring it to america.

I know that I definitely wouldn't wait a whole year for a few minimal additions.
 
I also think it's NOT possible to judge from the small quicktimes. I've downloaded so many videos over the year and they've NEVER been true to what I see onscreen.

I wasn't aware Capcom even announced all the extra content...What is being added?

Ha ha, it sure seems that way, doesn't it?

It's the result of viewing a low-bitrate streaming internet video as opposed to actually seeing it in person. In video form, the differences are not really very noticible.

The ONLY thing that I bitched about in regards to the GC version could not possibly be seen in such a video. The image quality was poor and the dithering really hurt the otherwise amazing visuals. Those are the only complaints I've had about the games visuals. The PS2 version is likely just as bad in that regard and also introduces a number of other downgrades. It would be incredibly obvious in person, but not so much in video.

Honestly, the reaction is one of suprise. I expected the best looking game ever made out of the GC version, and the flaws were disappointing. However, I expected a SERIOUS downgrade on the PS2 (like XBOX Splinter Cell -> PS2 Splinter Cell) and am quite shocked at how accurate it turned out.

I sold my GC... there's no future in it, and with only 60 games coming out this year... well I can live without it. Waiting for the PS2 just made me realize it's the only thing GC owners had to look forward to... and with that it was sold and I got to playing the huge backlog of PS2 games I had like GOW, FF-X2, GT4, Stellus Deus, Gradius V, MGS3, and MANY MANY more big hits so waiting for a port of a game doesn't bother me since I have other games to pass my time. And the fact that we don't know if it will come to US well I'll import, there's NOTHING nintendo can do to get me to buy another GC... NOTHING!.

You seem determined. :lol
 
dark, did you maybe watch the wmv stream and not the mov (which is locked)? Of course I understand that seeing it in real life vs just video will make a big difference, but there were still a handful of scenes that jumped out as downgraded - generally the darker ones, plus just a general drop in sharpness. The cut-scenes, btw, seemed to be identical.

I've only seen a WMV trailer that was very low in resolution.

people like you shouldn't talk then.

that's all.
 
Nice, thanks.

This has been a sad day for GC. This was definitely the penultimate reason to own one. But I guess sales say otherwise.

Nah, GC owners still got to play a fantastic game many months before the inevitable PS2 release. The problem is, there's just not as much of a market for this game on the GC and I certainly can't blame Capcom for wanting to make as much profit as they can when they've sunk so much money and time into it.

I also think it's premature to declare this the death knell for GC before the new Zelda has been released. After that, we'll see.
 
Unless the PS2 extras are a new minigame and an extra cutscene thats the equal to the Wesker kicking Chris' butt in CV scene not interested. I've beaten it on GC like 6 times. Part of me hopes it bombs on PS2 so Capcom learns not to do stupid things like announce you're porting a game before the original is out.
