You guys know current-gen PC games have some nice engines, right? I expect more than this on 360. Better lighting and more geometry. PC games ain't gonna cut it. PEACE.

Get used to it 'cause you're going to be seeing a lot of this on the X360 and PS3.

At least there's no excuse for it not to have a rock solid framerate.

 

[trmas]

Looks like a PC game. Nothing special.

 

[siege]

Not too bad. Next-gen console graphics = what PC can do now.

I saw the trailer for it on Gamespot and it reminds me of mercenaries a little. Speaking of, I wonder if Pandemic is doing mercs 2 for the next-gen, that would be a must buy.

I particularly like the gaseous fireball at the center of the explosions in some of those screens. It looks a lot like the emerging fireball found in that exploding gas station in the PS3 "demo" at Sony's pre-E3 conference. Damn, and here Sony had me, like so many others, sheepishly thinking that fireball was a PS3 exclusive.

I think I'll stick with GR3 at launch. Those screens aren't doing much for me.

"Mercenaries!" was the first thing I thought of when I saw the first pics. I love that game. It's a shame so many people are stuck on the "It doesn't look next-gen!" bandwagon...

Looks fuckin awesome. Animations could use some additions but the overall look is definitely a couple steps up from shit we see today. Thanks op.

Awesome, thanks for the link. Most games show promise, but Ultimate Spiderman really confirms that Activision sucks next-gen.

...all say you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

 

[newsguy]

Thanks Op, after seeing the vid it looks even more like mercs. It was cool to see so much stuff on sceen and then 2 guys fly in on parachutes to boot. If this is 1/3 of what we'll get when the game ships (or even 1/2 for that matter) color me impressed. Melee combat looks brutal... nice.

 

[eshwaaz]

I'm definitely interested. I'm not sick of all the WWII games; I'm just sick of all the weak, forgettable ones like Call of Duty Finest Hour and Medal of Honor Rising Sun. I think there's still plenty of fun to be had in this "sub-genre", so as long as the quality and entertainment is there, count me in.

 

[TheDiave]

Hey, look! Grass!

 

[dorio]

Wow, that's not nearly as underwhelming looking as it looks in the screens. I love me some grass.

Did that guy slash someone's neck?

 

[Chittagong]

thank god thats xbox 1 then

Please say that's true also for THUG

 

[newsguy]

Please say that's true also for THUG

I know, even though I'm burned out on the series, those graphics looked ass. To it's credit, it's based in a huge city, but so are some of those other games and they look better.

Wasteland was announced for the 360.
