Seven BAJILLION dollars.

 

[open_mouth_]

I'll gladly pay on tuesday for a next-gen system today.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

You can keep it. The resources needed would make dev cycles way too long and expensive.

Plus those are all close-up. Show me some environments! Fuk faces and close ups.

 

[neptunes]

nothing,

there are far too many reasons.

 

[The Shadow]

Tech mean nothing if people can't use it properly.

[levious]

as long as I can wall jump off of that

 

[Grizzlyjin]

My soul, whatever that old thing is worth.

 

[Semjaza Azazel]

I'd not spend more than $300 on a console no matter how good its graphics output was.

I guess you wont buy another console then!

 

[mrmyth]

I'd be all sweaty from her plastic skin, but I'd hit it.

 

[nubbe]

Only if it has DoA.... and Link

 

[Semjaza Azazel]

Don't see why considering I've never paid that much in the 15 years I've been playing videogames, even when I could have. Prices go down.

 

[human5892]

I have high doubts that any future console will ever debut at more than $300.

Unless you were talking about the hypothetical console from this thread, which would probably cost several GAZILLION dollars.

 

[Midas]

I really dont think PS3, XBX2 and Revolution (or whatever it's called) will cost less than $300 at launch. But I sure hope I'm wrong.

 

[human5892]

Why? None of their predecessors did, and console history (i.e., Panasonic 3DO) has shown that a pricepoint higher than $300 is difficult for people to swallow.

 

[levious]

I guess you wont buy another console then!

future price drops are inconceivable?

 

[Studs Ramrod]

I wouldn't pay a fucking dime. Why the fuck you want ultra real? Go live life then. Give me fantasy and exaggerated anyday - versus 'realistic'. Some things should not be meddled with. And that's my videogames. Sewer Shark rules!! 2D and exaggeration forever!!

 

[XS+]

What is up with that first picture, it looks like a Michael Turner drawing in 3D.

 

[MattCoz]

I really dont think PS3, XBX2 and Revolution (or whatever it's called) will cost less than $300 at launch. But I sure hope I'm wrong.

Nintendo has never released a console for more than $200, why would they release one for over $300?

Ultra Realistic would work in some games not all, especially in sports games.

DCX

 

[GigaDrive]

ummm, I think I'll just wait until Xbox3, N6, PS4 come out at $300

 

[Studs Ramrod]

DCX, true. I should have stated that fact. Gran Tourismo even. Those fit the niche. That is all.

 

[sc0la]

DenisDuckFat?

It is but a dream, he just referred to GT without disdain.

 

[shibbs]

Seven BAJILLION dollars.

 

[Justin Bailey]

This one isn't helping the "realistic VG characters don't look like corpses" argument.

 

[Dr.Guru of Peru]

No more than $500.

 

[jedimike]

I like this guy's vehicles

 

[FightyF]

I think that next gen will do graphics akin to that.

Remember that everything will be faked rather than rendered in real-time. Textures will be used...the lighting will be more basic...but the end result can look very close to all of these pictures.

 

[Alcibiades]

$199

 

[Mr. Lemming]

$99

 

[FitzOfRage]

I'd buy that for a dollar...

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

if they cant come out with consoles at reasonable prices, then they shouldnt bother to release them at all.

 

[sprsk]

zzzzzzzzz

 

[GaimeGuy]

if they cant come out with consoles at reasonable prices, then they shouldnt bother to release them at all.

I love you.

 

[Jumpman]

The girl in the first picture looks exactly like my friend Kathy. Eerie stuff. I think I'm going to have to ask her if she did any modeling for a CG render. She is an actress, so not to much of a stretch.

Oh and $299.99.

 

[belgurdo]

This one isn't helping the "realistic VG characters don't look like corpses" argument.

Like I said in the topic concerning that article, chalk that up to bad art rather than a latent fear of artificial humanity

 

[Dreamfixx]

What's the point of games being that realistic? Who cares for that sort of detail?

 

[RiZ III]

I wouldnt ever pay more than 200 dollars for any console.

 

[belgurdo]

War games and racers come to mind

 

[Pimpbaa]

What's the point of games being that realistic? Who cares for that sort of detail?

The point is it looks a hell of a lot better. I really don't understand this anti-progressive attitude some gamers have. Even if you don't like a realistic look, think of what this kind of power will do for more stylised graphics.

 

[Gattsu25]

the power of wiping out smaller developers due to production costs required to keep up with the bigger devs?


I'd pay $300 for a console...give me a video card that can do that in a PC @ 60 FPS and i'll pay much more, however :b

 

[hobbitx]

Is that girl in the first pic anyone in particular? Like another made up character like Eve Solal, or is that just a one shot rendering? Damn she's hot, if she looks like a corpse, you can call me the biggest necrophiliac around!

I wouldn't pay a fucking dime. Why the fuck you want ultra real? Go live life then. Give me fantasy and exaggerated anyday

Uhh, that's the point, we want exaggerated sci-fi and fantasy fiction that looks ultra real.

 

[pcostabel]

I'll pay $1,000 for a console with graphics like these:

Exactly! Realistic graphics doesn't necessarily have to mean realistic themes. It just helps you become more immersed in a fictional world.

Yep!

I was going to say the same thing, but the only Shirow pic I have on my friends server is this one, and I was reluctant to post it. Context of image may well be NSFW. :X

Gimme a game that looks like that = SOLD!

 

[Gattsu25]

lol@TTOB

that pic = SHANTAE RAWKS!

 

[dorio]

Problem is that game hardware would have to render dozens of that girl model in realtime so this hardware would be pretty worthless.
