You two have your expectations too low. I'd be disappointed if next gen games looked like any current gen game.
Also BF3 on PC isn't matched with any console game, including Sony's exclusives.
You'll definitely be able to spot the difference. BF3 is beautiful, just not a technological marvel. The PS4 and 720 will probably also be a notch more powerful than the Wii U. But yeah, it won't be about graphics this time. But then again, graphics haven't mattered any time ever, except for next-gen topics on gaming forums![]()
Problem is, how many people game on 50inch screens and I'm sure that's a statistic both MS and Sony know and are aware of.
For launch title uncharted or killzone at 1080 p resolution would look glorious.
Not to mention that some of those could be considered as spoilers.Dude, you just posted like 100mb worth of gifs
Are the gifs really necessary? Can't stand how any topic here about graphics has to be a PS3 gif thread. =/
If you say so, though I'd be happier with BF3 level graphics.

Now Chrome god damn stutters whenever you scroll past all those GIFs.
You're mistaken. Graphics have never made that differencein the history of gaming. Graphics only matter for enthusiasts. I definitely love me some good graphics, but I am too going to buy the console with the games and special controller I like best (probably Wii U first and PS4 later if this-gen exclusives are anything to go by) like the majority of people.Graphics always matter, how else will they over-shadow each other at shows and conferences.
It's one of the biggest reasons to try and sell their console more than the other. If PS4 can do the same games as nextbox but with more effects and a higher resolution and framerate which version will you purchase?
We already know next gen will look like this

Current gen games like uncharted 3 and killzone 3 will look better then bf3 with 1080p resolution and thats what i feel how launch games will look atleast the ps4 exclusives.

DCKing said:Somehow it seems that people find it some sort of obligation console manufacturers have to give them a super power console. Since the last ~7 years however, you simply can't get this power in a box everyone can fit under your TV. It's not as if the manufacturer's aren't trying.
if we can have samaritan level of graphics next gen, that would be fantastic. Somewhere in canada, dyack wishes he hadn't fucked relations with EPiC.
StevieP said:I swear, Samaritan has completely poisoned the discussion of next generation consoles.
1) *none* of the next gen consoles will have the computational power required to render it
2) "bu-bu-bu it can be optimized for one GTX 580, they said!" equates to the downscaling of resolution, textures, light sources, etc. not to mention a GTX 580 is too hot and power hungry still for a console and its 22nm counterparts aren't going to help you here. Whatever is going into a 2012 console is not going to be a 2013 part.
3) Samaritan was a cutscene. There was no "game code" in it. By design, more of its i7+3 tri-SLI GTX 580s could be used to shiny it up
4) The cost to create a game that looks like that the whole way through for is not feasible, even if we had $799 consoles with the required minimum hardware for it
The end. Stop looking at it.

No, in the realm of consoles - graphics have NEVER mattered. Ever. If the last few generations haven't taught you anything, the next generation won't have taught you anything either.
It's always about the software. Always. Visuals mean jack.
No... I swear, every one of these threads. I'm going to quote myself from a month ago:
The end. Stop looking at it.
you find this impressive? this is on par with current gen (PS360) if not worse looking that some games.
Because You're mistaking art with technology. BF 3 is so ahead KZ 3 and U3 in terms of technology, that its not even funny.
BTW i still think God of War 3 is technologically more advanced that U3.
you find this impressive? this is on par with current gen (PS360) if not worse looking that some games.
maybe 4k resolution in the middle of the generation?
FALSE
Yeah you can spam current gen gifs like crazy but that doesn't make consoles come any closer to godly games like Crysis 2 in DX11.
What ?
Zelda on wiiu did look impressive
F.E.A.R (October 2005) was in some ways prettier than 360's Condemned, and the F.E.A.R port to consoles might have had bloom added, but otherwise it was worse looking and running.
It's impressive for current gen standards, not NEXT gen standards.
A 360/PS3 has held fast over 6 years. I doubt you could take a late 2005 PC and run Battlefield 3 on it, but you can run a competent version of Battlefield 3 on a 360.
Posted them, because the expectations are much lower that expected. Also, IQ is never that important in console realm![]()
Anyone remember Dreamcast in 1999? With Soul Calibur, NBA 2K and Shenmue (in Japan)? There isn't anything close on PC at that year. And i'm not talking IQ related stuff - res, AA, AF, FPS will always be better on PC. Always. If this components are so important for you, just buy a powerful PC.
True. BF3 has huuuuuge levels in mp. KZ3 and UC3 are corridor shooters.
There is a lot more lighting/GI going on in that Zelda demo than either current gen HD console could pull off without grinding to a halt.
I assure you, it can.

I do not get the BF3 graphical love. I am playing the pc version but I have played a lot of things similar to it on 360/ps3. It goe3s with the used and abused mostly baked in shadows and lighting approach with a high contrast hdr lighting effect.
There are more technically impressive games out there.
they're examples of prime examples of current gen best graphics and isn't about PS3 gifs. I welcome gears gifs if anyone wants to post. Your fanboy flag is showing.
And would it measure up to the 360 version?
So lightning = next gen? Ok cute. Besides you are over exaggerating, AND that is TECH demo. Killzone 2 tech demo, and few other looked very "bright" and what not. We remember how that one ended. So we can discuss about lighting when we see the game in motion.
BF3 on PC
Metro 2033 on PC
Witcher 2 on PC
Anyone have a Core 2 Duo and an X1900xt lying around for some comparison screens?
Yes, lighting and tessellation will be the defining features of next gen. That, and more consistent 720p resolution (with some 1080 sprinkled in for some select games), rather than 540p/600p near-SD crap.
Killzone 2 was entirely CGI. Zelda was running on hardware, being rendered twice from different angles on both a TV and a tablet on dev hardware. Gigantic difference.
If those examples are what next gen looks like then next gen will be severely disappointing.

Even Though Uncharted is not as open as BF3 but the amount of stuff going on in the background and the animations make it worth it.
Starting titles will look like that for sure, but next-gen will bring graphics even better than Samaritan demo ;]If those examples are what next gen looks like then next gen will be severely disappointing.
1080p/60fps/AA aren't just bullet points. I consider anything less to be unacceptable image quality. I doubt that we'll be getting Cry2/BF3 caliber visuals at the next gen's launch with that kind of IQ, and if we did it would be ridiculous to complain about it.I have both versions also. The difference is strong but not a generation gap. I use ultra settings on PC>high.
Main difference is the resolution, shadows.
I also happen to have two 27" monitors (well, my PC monitor and my 2nd TV are both 27) and been meaning to put them side by side and directly compare just for my own shits and giggles, haven't done that yet though. Going to do the same With Crysis 2, should be fun.
If next gen just gives me BF3 on PC ultra in 1080P, I'll cry, because it's not that impressive. I fond Crysis 2 PC more impressive than BF3.
Animation is just amount of assets. And background? You mean those low poly building or 2D images?
Lighting is ahead both games [KZ 3 dont even have HDR lol].
Particles? Ahead
Amount of geometry? Ahead
Destructibility? Ahead
Streaming? Ahead
