Starcraft Ghost screens

What is it. I swear this does look low end next-gen. Look at gun and look at this. At a bare minimum this is PC or 1080i. I played this at E3 and it did not look like this, not this clean and sharp.

its current gen so that's a great vote of confidence. :D
 
That has to be the XBox version - too sharp for PS2, and not nice enough for PC or next-gen. Looks kind of like MGS with a blond chick instead. I'm interested :)
 
anybody else think the first version of Starcraft Ghost looked more amazing than this? it looks like they degraded the graphics from the first shown version ever

Thanks, I almost thought they had switched to next-gen platforms (not based on the pics, just something I recall hearing some time ago).
Oh, and it looks great for being current-gen IMO. :)

So, is there going to be any point at which this game doesen't look like a mix of Metroid and Halo, diluted heavily?

Two and a half years ago when it was an awesome sci-fi version of Splinter Cell.
 
I'm thinking of picking up P.N.03 because of that gif. Sigh.

Ghost is looking good. I wish there were plot details to divulge.

Im not sure if anyones mentioned it yet but you can play as ZERG in multiplayer!

Apparantly the multiplayer is really fast moving aswell(and one mode earns you point so you can upgrade within the match).

Holy shit.

2006 GOTY.

X360 version PLZKTHX!

The multiplayer sounds amazing. Looks like elements from the RTS games are being implemented! Hope you can use lurkers in multiplayer mode. :D

It has been four years since the Brood War Conflict ended within the ravaged Koprulu Sector. In that time, Sarah Kerrigan, the self-styled Queen of Blades, has become the undisputed ruler of the zerg Swarm - and the most powerful entity in the galaxy. Emperor Arcturus Mengsk, Kerrigan's sworn enemy, has rebuilt much of his Terran Dominion and consolidated a new military force despite the ever-present threat of the zerg.

Mengsk, with the aid of his newly appointed advisor - General Horace Warfield - has begun a clandestine research project code-named Project: Shadow Blade. This covert program utilizes a rare and deadly form of gas known as terrazine to alter the genetic makeup of the Dominion's psychic Ghost operatives. These Ghosts are transformed into terrifying Spectres - shadowy superhuman beings bent on executing the will of their true master.
In this boiling cauldron of strife and subversion, the young Ghost known as Nova has come of age. Having received years of intensive physical and psychic training, Nova has become the Dominion's most lethal and promising Ghost in years. Utilizing a combination of pure physical aptitude, innate psychic power, and advanced technology, Nova can infiltrate any situation and strike without being seen or heard. Like a phantom in the shadows, she exists only as a myth to the enemies of the Dominion she serves.

Yet, despite her skill and cunning, Nova is about to uncover a conspiracy that will force her to question her deepest loyalties as well as her own identity. Ensnared in a bitter struggle between the Dominion and the rebel Koprulu Liberation Front, Nova will embark upon a perilous mission to uncover the frightening truth behind Project: Shadow Blade. Now, the dark path that Nova must tread threatens to not only change her forever - but upset the very balance of the galaxy.

no doubt it'll be backwards compatible ;)
 
Nonononononono.

I know the Xbox version will work on tree sitty. I want a version made specifically for Xbox 360. Blizzard could really expand on the multiplayer mode with the extra horsepower and make it the ultimate console multiplayer game!

This is my most anticpated game at the moment please don't screw it up Swinging Ape Studios. I think I'm going to go play through Starcraft and Brood War campaign again in celebration of this hot multiplayer news!

Sweet! Hiding underground and popping up at the last moment to take out your enemy from behind ftw! Lurkers + hydralisk combo could do some major damage. Use the hydralisks to drive the enemies to where the lurkers are hiding!

I wish we had some videos of the multiplayer mode right now. I wonder how things will balance out online? How many people can play online at once the article doesn't state. Zerglings are tiny so it would you need a bunch of them to go accomplish anything and they shouldn't go by themselves. Probably be a ton of bitching online about zergling rushes by Terran controlled people! :lol
 
I play WoW all the time with a guy who's working on this. Must be progressing nicely, cause he has lots of time to play WoW :lol
 
ah, so that's the reason for all these delays.

fucking WoW. ruining lives and release deadlines.
 
You need to earn points during the match to be able to upgrade to the other classes, here they are:

Terran:

Infantry(Start class, 0points), Marines(2points), Firebats(3points), Ghosts(5points)


Zerg:

Zergling(Start class, 0 points), Hydralisk(1 point), Infested Marine(2 points), Mutalisk(5 points).

(Note: A class needing more points ain't necessery better, all classes have their highpoints. Infantry can place gun mounts..etc)

No Protoss multiplayer? :(
Click to expand...
yeah, I don't know what's up with that. Around the time SC:G was first announced there were screens/renders/art of Protoss characters (for single player at least), but they since seem to have disappeared. I have a feeling they've being culled from the game. Could be in a hidden level or something, or perhaps they're saving them for a sequel?

Anyway, here's a wallpaper I haven't seen of the game yet.

The original Nova design looked way better. But atleast this is much improved from the shitty E3 screens. I think they should have kept the gfx from the previous version and just had Swingin Ape work on the gameplay.
 
Not only can you play as Zerg in multiplayer now but you can also have 16 players at it. The previous number was 8.

And yeah, Im betting everyone that Protoss will be playable when the game releases.

I hope i can sit on the ceiling like you can in natural selection. I used to scare the shit out of people doing that. Over xbox live it would be hilarious :lol.

Last week I found a Ghost vid on my hard drive. The date on it was E3 2001. Nova looked exactly like she looks now except her hair had more of a reddish tone to it. Graphics looked exactly like they do now. The end of the video said coming in 2003 to Xbox, PS2, GC :lol
 
Make fun of the graphics all you want, this will probably play quite awesomely. I have complete faith in Blizzard and Swinging Ape studios.
