Is this a madden-like "target" or realtime or..? It looks plausibly realtime, but you never know with EA's stuff now.
 
It's funny how everyone is laughing and calling the PS2 weak all the time. Yet it's PS2 games we are comparing to whenever a 360 title gets shown :lol

I hope everyone here will remember to bring their cynicism along with them to the Sony and Nintendo press conferences.
Wah

You and your Xbox cronies will bring your cynicism to the Sony conference, along with Nintendo fans
Likewise with Xbox and Sony fans for the Nintendo conference

Do you understand how GAF works yet?

Really? Better?
Comparable is more like it.

If you told me these were a generation apart I would call you a liar.

would depend on the actual environments though. one is inside an actual city. ahh nevermind.

I don't participate in that kind of bullshit but thanks for lumping me in with the crowd.

no one said this is a in game screenshot though
Why did this post not occur earlier in the thread? Exactly what I was thinking when I was reading some of the replies here.

I want to see more stuff like Ghost Recon 3, nice and detailed in game shots. Good stuff there.
 
well its next gen arent we suppose to have finding nemo real time graphics no matter what type of game it is?

open ended GTA style or not !

the graphics should never suffer.
 
Sh3 picture has most details textured, whereas GF has them fully modelled in 3D.
I think the difference can get huge when the camera gets closer.
That, and GF textures and self shadowing are a much higher quality; you can tell even from that little screenshot.
Looks very good and lòoks like it might be in-game or at least in-engine.
 
Don Vito Corleone model = awesome
backgrounds = shitty

maybe a high-res upgrade of the current consoles version ? still looks great.

Show a picture that's just as close up as the godfather shot and then say that again.

Xenon is the lead platform for The Godfather.
Ho, and how can you tell the backgrounds quality with so much DOF on them ?

So a real life shot of someones face compared to either model in those games, does that look like a generational gap? What the hell are you expecting?

This is a game based upon the f***ing GODFATHER!!! I don't care how good the graphics look this is still a terrible idea.

This is the correct answer.


I know a question was never asked, but whatever. :P

If the new one is real-time and the old one was a render (i don't remember) -- Xbox360 wins EASY.

the background looks very good to me, from what i can see, which isn't saying much, but at least the lightning is very 'convincing'. textures look good and it seems to have some depth.

And i need to say that again, SH3 models looks very good from a distance, but it's already obvious from these tiny shots that those meshes are leagues apart;

I don't see how Corleone could look better than this; That took quite some modeling and texturing skill..hell, it's very hard to achieve such realistic results even when you can take all the time to render a single frame.
 
that image really isn't bad. Looks stupendous - Its close to some of the CG images that people on CG forums do/make so I'm sort of okay with it. But I'd want to know if its ingame or cg?


PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BUY THIS SACRILIGEOUS POS THOUGH? It'd send the wrong signal and we can probably expect the shawshank redemption next year.

The old one is real time, If I recall correctly.

The old one - all the stills; including the ingame looking ones were all artist's impressions ala madden - read it in EDGE, whose main concern was how the good looking images translated into a playable game that captured the movie's themes without breaking the timeline/lineage

Yeah, it's a shame on how they are making a mockery about what the film was really about.
 
This is purely speculation, but it's interesting to bring Silent Hill up. The Silent Hill 1 & 2 character designer/modeller went to EA and worked on GoldenEye... but I bet you the reason why these character models are looking so good is because he's working on this game.
