*checks out blims footage and the new jeux-france vid... game still looks pretty good to me

+1 looks really hot ... oblivion seems so good too

kameo + Oblivion + PD0

 

[trmas]

Afraid not. That exact same cutscene was show on Attack of the Show tonight. It was interesting...

 

[DaMan121]

Death animations were great fun....but it still looked like ass to me. Hell at the time 2D games slaughted that fuzzy mess.

Fuzzy? :lol You are either blind, or you didnt play it when it came out 8 years ago.

Mirror for the multiplayer vid

 

[hgplayer1]

ok saw the multiplayer deathmatch vid and it looked pretty boring. that one map looked boring as hell but maybe it was just showing a small portion of the map. Im wondering how much time they were able to devote to multiplayer to this point?

You did play the N64 right?

 

[Izzy]

Goldeneye was straight up fugly even at the time

No, it actually looked pretty good for its time. I remember having a huge party at my house in the late '97, and my PC gaming friends were just awed by GE's and Star Fox 64 (Lylat Wars in Europe) visuals. It wasn't until early '98 and Quake II release that the PC took the FPS graphics crown back. Coincidentally, Voodoo 2 had a great launch in March 1998.

Death animations look fantastic. The bit at the end when she shot the dude with 2 SMGs he was launched in the air. But it looked satisfying, he had weight, he drop on the floor like a ton of bricks.

IMO one of the most important part of FPS games is the feedback from the guns and enemies. Rare seem to have done a great job with that

Oh, multiplayer map looks far more fun than burial mounds. hg am cry

 

[super-heated plasma]

That last vid with the multi play in it looks great.

 

[bumpkin]

You know, up until now, there were only two games on the 360 that did an excellent job of blowing up my skirt; Ridge Racer 6 (always been an RR fan) and NBA 2K6. But after finally seeing how PDZ looks? SOLD.

are you kidding? that one snowy map there was a hut in the center and everyone would spawn and run inside. woohoo!

its too bad they announced Wolfenstein, I doubt youll be able to sell a copy of PD to PhantomGoal now. :lol

 

[Prine]

:lol @ guy waiting to jump on next guy to run through the door, BAM 2 guys come running in guns blazing. He panicks and starts melee attacking wall

:lol :lol

 

[fartblast]

Yeah seriously

Why on earth would IGN release an unfinshed cutscene of PDZ with no actual gameplay footage and label it as a trailer is beyond me. It seemed like an early storyboard by Rare artist to demostrate how the cutscene will play out, just to give the sound, and editing guys an idea of what they are shooting for.

If anyone has seen starwars DVD extras, this is a process used to generate a picture for all of those involved to bring the scene to life. Its part of pre-production

What the fuck is MS playing at

i think it's a joke too. i watched the trailer again and lolled, cause i mean while the audio is out of sync, it's done in a way so that when the radio guy says "hit the ground runnin' kid" joanna's lips sync up almost perfectly to him and it looks hilarious

I think that is debatable. The original Voodoo was released in '96 alongside GLQuake.

Yeah, instantly more interesting than burial fucking mounds. The guy behind that map need to be fired

Dont worry, Phantoms sold on both Rare games

I dunno - I had a Celeron 333A/Voodoo 2 SLI set-up that made GLQuake's shortcomings all too apparent. For some reason I really disliked that game from the GFX viewpoint.

BLAH BLAH BLAH!!

IGN has a couple more of the sp rooftop level

 

[Shaheed79]

I wonder why no one was roll dodging out of the way in that multiplayer vid? Did rare remove the move altogether? I thought it looked silly how it would jump to 3rd person just to show you rolling so if it was I'm glad it was removed. Multiplayer looks pretty standard. Not bad and not great.

 

[Mrbob]

SOLD!

On video 2 with the co-op mode.

Looks so fun!

 

[BigBoss]

Theres a roll 7 seconds into the multiplayer video, the roll move is still there.

 

[Prine]

IGN has some great game play vids. Here's what they said about the ealier vid

q. Yes Tal, wtf was with that cutscene?

a. Dude, we're saying the same thing here in the office. I have NO idea why MS would release that, especially in that state.

Tal
IGN

IGN vids looks beautiful

 

[DaMan121]

You did play the N64 right?

Ofcourse. Im not interested in posting GE pics, but if we establish a scale, say something like PSX Tomb Raider2 - then compare it to GE, its night and day. Admitedly the superior crispness had alot to do with colour pallete employed, grey and softer colors, while PD used alot more color on most levels, and suffered from bluriness / fuziness ( the best looking maps were the ones with softer / duller colors - like the snow map(s), Area51 etc).

now we're talkin. That shit is HAWT. Finally, some good video, and the game looks superb.

 

[dorio]

Does MS have any type of pr/marketing department? They seem inept.

 

[Shaheed79]

Indeed. Disregard then.

:lol :lol
Is it because you suck with BR's ?

From that multi-player vid of PDZ. It looks Boring!! Much more so than Burial Mounds.
Single player and Co-op is HOT.

[hgplayer1]

my thinking on that live action vid is that its basically a commercial spot for tv. I think Ghost Recon 2 and a few other games have done something similar. first thing I thought when I saw it was, they must have paid that model some serious cash and they are getting every pennies worth.

 

[suikodan]

The coop mode sounded excellent.

I'm officially excited for this game.

 

[Pimpwerx]

When people say this looks current-gen, they must mean current-gen PC. And yes, this game looks underwhelming in every pic and vid. I don't see a need to make excuses for this just b/c it was ported around earlier. No excuse anymore. For a game running at 30fps, you'd expect a noticeable step up from what we're seeing on a high-end PC today, right? Maybe the bar was set so low, everything beyond absolute crap is noteworthy. PEACE.

There is a good chance that one's receptiveness to Quake, visually, depends heavily on how much tolerance the viewer has for the color brown.

from all the x05 impressions both rare games have great gameplay your personal vendetta against them seems silly now.

Not hardly. Seriously--watch the IGN vids, the new direct feed ones. They EASILY stand up to the very best the PC can offer current gen, and thensome when the varied gameplay modes are thrown into the mix.

 

[Deg]

The epic engine is also coming to pc. Along with GOW and UT. Pc owners wont miss out on nice graphics.

The IGN vids are insider only....how am I supposed to see them...

 

[Gahiggidy]

Is that all realtime?

got an e-mail account?

assuming, I mean, you can't just click the 'WATCH IT NOW' link here http://media.xbox360.ign.com/media/015/015335/vids_1.html ? Aren't those available to non-insiders?

 

[radrelic]

teamxbox has the same IGN videos up on their site

 

[xtwo]

i got one

 

[hgplayer1]

the two rooftop vids on IGN are not direct feed though are they? I mean you cant even see all of the HUD. the only one that looks to be direct feed is the bad one. the one that seems to be a joke with the lack of sounds and out of synch voice acting.
