I wonder if Ubi wanted us to notice their lighting effects? hmm..

 

[DSN2K]

looks downgraded or were the early shots PC ?

 

[Guns N' Poops]

Why so grainy? PC version looked kinda cleaner so far,

 

[wobedraggled]

Looks pretty, now they just need to work on the FUN part.

 

[Wario64]

OOps, I reposted the same set of images twice, haha. Fixed.

Go back to your Donkey Konga and shaddap.

 

[JayFro]

I'm all over this!

 

[wobedraggled]

Go back to your Donkey Konga and shaddap.

With pleasure....

 

[Shogmaster]

You nailed it

LOL, indeed. I'm a little sick of the SC trolling myself.

 

[Shogmaster]

Not really. I forgot to put an "n" before "angry grimace". :| My second language ya know. :lol

No, but If I told you there's an option for nicer vid cards.

 

[AtomicShroom]

Early shots were direct video memory dumps from the console. These were captured from the console's video output. That would explain it.

 

[shpankey]

this series has always been pretty. and it's also never been the problem with it. the problem lies in the gameplay. although the control and perspective and camera kick the ever lovin shit out of everything else. it's truely magnificent!

 

[Bishman]

Does the gameplay still consists of trail and error?

 

[AtomicShroom]

It's still Splinter Cell. But now you can save and load at any time you want. It allows you to truly play with the game and experiment with everything without fear of having to start over a whole section. Makes the game much more enjoyable, IMO.

 

[Wario64]

You can save anywhere now? Wow...I'll be saving like after every room :lol

They finally added in the feature that the PC versions have had from the beginning?

 

[Schmo Florez]

WTF is up with all the hate? Must be the graphic whore in me that loves the series so much.

 

[AtomicShroom]

Yep. If you have access to IGN Insider, the video interview with the game's producer explains about the game's non-linearity and save anywhere system, why it was implemented, etc.

And come on people! I'm not seeing enough love for this game!

 

[Deg]

Why should we love it after all the overated Ubi crap the past few years? :lol

 

[Powdered Toastman]

I never quite understood the use of infrared 'see in the dark' googles that themselves emit this yellowish glow. Do the guards think they're three pretty little fireflies flying in a triangle formation?

That's one of the lines between videogame and reality. The concept is that these lights are completely invisible to the guards. They're a reference point so the player doesn't lose track of Sam on screen.

 

[Koshiro]

I can't see shit. They should skip masses of screenshots for the SC games and just release a few alongside a video, because they might as well be showing us gigantic black squares for screens at this rate.

 

[TTP]

PSP version?

 

[Ramirez]

Looks awesome,the usual dumbass replies never cease to amaze me.

 

[Scottlarock]

someone please hit the light switch... I can't see shit!

 

[Spider_Jerusalem]

Looks very nice! Too bad that RS4: Lockdown don't seem to use the same gfx engine...

However, cant'wait to play Sam Fisher again: I loved the first game and really liked Pandora Tomorrow, even if the single player was nothing more than a mission pack built upon the engine of the first.

 

[siamesedreamer]

The real love is for the multiplayer action.

 

[Insertia]

Graphics look poor.
Here's hoping they inject some fun into this sterile series.

i think maybe you should adjust the brightness for you monitor...

Poor?

:lol :lol :lol

:lol :lol :lol

Yes!

Well, you took care of the two cliched troll comments. It looks like your work is done in this thread.

I think it looks fantastic...especially the night shots with the search light and the tower.

 

[Insertia]

^^
That looks awesome.

The screens in original topic look like Pandora Tomorrow coated with a messy layer of bump/normal mapping.

Those do look better but I wouldn't go as far as to call the original pictures "poor."

 

[Mikey 2x4]

I like the series, but it might just be the stealth game over in me. SC has always looked good, imo, but this one seems to take the cake. Though, co-op is going to be where it's at in this one.
