I hope he actually knows something here and isn't just blue skying.Once the next generation of online-enabled consoles arrives, "in every living room, we'll have a wireless hub," he said.
Well since Xbox2 is probably the only thing with actual specs, he's probably talking about that, right?kaching said:purdy graphics, but this is the part that got me most excited:

Maybe, although I don't recall the leaked Xbox2 specs saying anything about a wireless hub for networking. Still, this isn't core hardware performance specs we're talking about here, its more like anciliary functionality which can easily be declared separately since it doesn't have direct impact on core hardware performance. For example, knowing nothing else about the PS3 right now, we already know that Sony intends for it to read Blu-Ray media.Jonnyram said:Well since Xbox2 is probably the only thing with actual specs, he's probably talking about that, right?

XS+ said:Umm, we'll see real-time visuals of that sort within 3 years time. Just not on a console.

No mention of Nintendo. Doomed!Jenson kicked off the presentation with a brief tease of what EA might be able to produce with the technology offered by Sony and Microsoft's next consoles.

Just imagine if you had pixel shaders for the grass (a la tony hawk 2x), about 3x the geometry detail and a much more advanced lighting model.
Top that off with much better textures and you have what you see there.
Though I'd still not put my money on it, i'm just saying it's probably not impossible at all.
Including a glimpse of how those games might look.

Madden 2000

Madden 2001

So I can see Madden 2006 being just as good as what element posted.
Wario64 said:Oh, and does this mean the next gen Need for Speed game isn't gonna be another Underground title?
Shogmaster said:That comparasin might be slightly off, since Madden 2000 was done on a hardware released in December of 1994, and the 2001 was done on hardware released in march of 2000. That's 5 years and 3 months gap in hardware developement. Time gap between XBox and XBox 2 is only going to be 4 years or so.
Also, diminishing returns play into this, and yadda yadda. Not saying those pics aren't possible on the XBox 2, but not getting my hopes up too high.
Pimpbaa said:I agree. People are underestimating the power of next gen. Looking at a xbox exclusive game like rallisport 2 makes me think that a next gen system could do that need for speed render in realtime with ease.
MightyHedgehog said:I think it's safe to say that Xenon has EA's main next-gen work. Why not? It'll be first out of the gate and the work done their can translate to PS3 and probably Rev.
McFly said:EA is a money company, they will be where they can make the most money. Analyst predictions say it's the PS3, so EA will put most resources to PS3 development as well.
MightyHedgehog said:PS3? Somehow, I doubt it.
MightyHedgehog said:I think it's safe to say that Xenon has EA's main next-gen work. Why not? It'll be first out of the gate and the work done there can translate relatively easily to PS3 and probably Rev.
