I agree. X360 is looking like this gen's Dreamcast so far, though I'm sure it will sell better. Apologies to Dreamcast crazies, I'm only referring to the power level of a system launched much earlier than its competitors. Soon you can make fun of Revolution for its power level even after launching later than its competitors.

How can you make such a statement if we have yet to see what the others really can do? Just wondering. Heck we have yet to see what the 360 can really do.

*looks at calendar* They sure are taking their sweet ass time showing what 360 'can really do'...
Like I've said in the past, I just hope they give Moss his Playoff '05 afro with complete texturing.

Will the final game sport all of the graphical effects of that original video?

It really does look like ass compared to the CG hype trailer. The Xbox 360 however shouldn't be judged on EA's shitty efforts. I'm not sure why people do that...well actually I am. I sense even more tears when Madden 07 on PS3, Xbox 360 & Rev looks equally crappy. Welcome to the next 10 years :lol

Thats what happens when you generalize a bunch of seperate opinions to suit your own strawmen. All sorts of crazy contradictions pop up, its zany!

LakeEarth said:I hope that's true too. You know, maybe the "bullshot" joke is a good thing, give this practice an actual name so maybe they'll lay off ... probably not though. I can't wait till we see the real Killzone 2...
Word is Killzone 2 might be for PS2, PS3 gets Killzone 3.

I always hear this, but I guess I need somebody to show me.
Show me firstgen PS2 games that look better than firstgen DC games.
I'm not saying that the DC is more powerful than the PS2, FYI. But during its very short life, how did it look worse? Comparing third and fourth generation PS2 games to the DC is not a fair comparison.
First gen PS2 games did have their fair share of problems, but you could see the potential. PS2 games generally displayed much more geometry with a whole host of effects that the DC was never able to handle. Before the PS2 was even a year old in Japan, Metal Gear Solid 2 (the demo) was playable in our homes. ZOE, The Bouncer, Tekken Tag, and a host of others all demonstrated some of its strengths. That's when I started to become interested in the hardware, really. A lot of the things it was doing were things I had really been wanting to see and was very impressed.beermonkey@tehbias said:
DC took the old PC approach of great image quality and good textures. Pardon this bizarre comparison, but DC was kinda like Duke Nukem 3D. It took the methods common to 3D games at the time and displayed them at their best. It was rooted in the past.
PS2 was kinda like Quake. Started off a bit rough, but represented a new direction for 3D rendering by introducing a lot of new things. XBOX and GC were kinda like the Quake 2 engine, then, as they took all of those ideas and did more with them while also introducing a few new kinks (colored lighting == pixel shaders).
This only applies to the current gen, though. Next-gen shots are all going to be high-res because they DO run at those resolutions.
