Those finger nails look like they could do some damage. By the way these look very similar to the pictures in Edge this month, actually only picture looks similar.
 
Why the hell does the gun take up that much of the screen? O-o

PDZ purchase +1. You proved me wrong, RARE.
 
Oh, for Pete's sakes Microsoft, exercise some freaking quality control. What are these things, resized magazine scans?
 
Is Joanna Dark fighting Magneto in that first pic?

It does look good though, still deciding whether to buy it for launch or not. It's either this or Kameo.
 
Theres a really good interview with the Kameo team in this months Edge. They were told to move the game to 360 when it was 80% complete on Xbox. The game you see on 360 they did in 12 months. I assume the same goes for PDZ.
 
Nice and a 720p pic too, I'm tired of EA's huge ass 1440 resolution pics or whatever the hell they were. Aren't 720p pics big enough as is and the console can actually output the high resolution too.
 
Every Halo screenshot was carefully chosen from a free cam view, then a 16xAA filter was applied. Every PD0 shoot is gameplay shoot that doesn't show anything great, and is full of jaggies. element, you should go back to Microsoft, it seems someone who never played a game is in charge of PR.
 
Looks pretty good, hm. Some evidence of rather weak texturing in the pic in this thread though. Some of those at the link fare better.
 
Seriously, you could almost excuse the MTV/E3 fiasco, and write it off as inexperience.

But releasing stuff like this at this point, after all they have been through, is just unbelievably incompetent.
 
Some of those look so-so but some look downright awesome.

Just the detail on that light post is pretty damn amazing.

Rhidle I think IGN has just take screen shots from a video they have. I don't think this is MS stuff. Well actually this is MS were talking about.

That screen will do more harm than good to this thread.
 
Other than some of the parallex mapping not that impressive at all IMO. Considering this is suppossed to be a huge leap. I just played Far Cry last night with 64bit extensions and HDR. That looked amazing for a 2 year old game and didnt need 2 gig of RAM like BF2 :P

The PGR screens are nice tho.

i'd guess from the blood splattered on the wall in the direction that he's falling that... he's been shot in the back?? wild guess...

lol - ignore that!
it's a bit of crap on my monitor! ;)
 
I swear, this is the weirdest fucking reveal of any major game I can remember. As someone said, it's like a god-damned rollercoaster.
 
I hate the graphics. Most detail is done using that new bumpmapping effect, even in very small areas where they could use millions of polys for objects. The jungle looks OK (about good Farcry quality) but at least one of the shots looks downright ugly (that brownish one)
 
Umm, why are there so many JAGGIES?!

It boggles the mind how the Kameo screenshots can be so amazingly beautiful, but Microsoft has yet to produce ONE impressive PD0 screenshot. I know the game looks great in motion, but WTF is wrong with Microsoft's screen-shot-taking people? Did Kameo get the good marketing people, and PD0 the bad?
 
The videos with seen obviously prove that the game looks better in motion.

Yeah but that won't get in the way of people moaning about the screens. Look at the PGR3 screens, look at the clarity and now the PDZ screens. it just seems that someone has taken crappy stills from a video. Anyway the biggest truth regarding PDZ is that its really an Xbox game upgraded to 360 in a short space of time.

Perhaps, but I'll bet Microsoft released these.

Even if IGN produced them, why is IGN being left to produce crappy looking screens from a trailer at this point? Why has Microsoft still not managed to release a single decent looking shot of their supposed showcase game to online sites?

They seem to just be leaving it up to individidual development teams to produce and release their own media, with no rhyme or reason to what gets released. It's just utterly amateurish.
 
Wow, no IQ improvement over the E3 version. But more jaggies and more vivid colors. Seriously, are they confident enough to push aside 'Xbox 1.5' bash?
 
Man that better not be real, not coz it's bad or anything, (I haven't read it or dled it yet though) but it because it's way too early and after the precautions they took with H2's single player you'd think they would be careful, plus, it's a big party pooper! >:( It better not be real.

ahh, that explains it.

The script is very good from what I've read of it--not going to potentially spoil myself any more though.

edit: anyone can feel free to make this into a topic if they feel it's worthy.

Looks like he's been shot in the back by a M60. I expect him to fly a little bit. ;)
