Ninja Gaiden: Sigma demo out
- Thread starter Mideon
- Start date
Punch in the Junk mode. Description says to unzip, pull out your sack & close your eyes. I haven't tried it yet though.Crypto said:Anyone try the score uploading thing, I noticed a big bug in it, I got the same score in the Rachel level as a Japanese guy, so my score wasn't uploaded, when I choose 'my score' it only shows his name...
Does anyone know what the thing in between the 'very hard' difficulty and Rachel missions are? I can't beat very hard

Yes, quite a bit of jaggies and shimmering at 720p on a 45" Samsung DLP. Learn to texture filter, Team Ninja.
It becomes far less noticeable once you move inside the darker areas.
Other than that, the game is gorgeous.

well, i'm guessing that has to be a new demo to the one at TGS and on the streets of Aki because i'd have to say - no ****ing way!
ESPECIALLY graphically - DMC4 is a jaggie fest of the highest order (or at least , the prior demo was)
Gameplay wise - same old DMC , i thought the demo was insanely boring - not that this demo is doing too much for me, not played through as the alt character yet but (obviously) it's the same game that Xbots were fapping over X years ago.
*shrug*
Anyways - NGZ is great for those that haven't played the game before.

I think the jaggies in the DMC4 stations were from being on shit LCDs. I've seen it running at some places where it didn't look all that jaggy. And lighting, geometry, polygon count, effects are all in DMC4s favor. DMC4 looks like a X360/PS3 gen game, Sigma looks like an Xbox game in HD with some falling leaves.
I dug the gameplay in the DMC4 demo. The devil bringing was quite fun. But yeah, it's same old DMC vs. same old NG here and I'm a much bigger DMC3 gameplay fan, though I do think NG is great.
Sigma will not be worth upgrading for the graphics. It'll be worth upgrading for the new levels, bosses, weapons, rachel, etc... and unfortunately this demo doesn't show much of that beside Rachel and the new sword.

well, the DMC4 demos in Tsutaya are all running on Bravia 46X2500's - and they actually made things look worse. It might be that things have been tarted up, but who knows.
To be honest, i thought DMC4 looked like a hires PS2 game - it looks good. At TGS from a distance i was blown away - once i got up close it looked a bit sharper.
but yeah, i guess i do agree - in the end NGZ is an upgraded Xbox game - in the end, DMC4 should have it beaten.

A beauty at 1080p and blazing 60 fps hotness. I've almost forgotten how well the game animates to and so damn fast!!

I dunno why everyone's going on about jaggies. There really isn't a whole lot of painfully noticeable aliasing... now, if you want to talk about shimmery texture, OH BROTHER. The floor outside the base was just horrible. I don't understand why it's so dang hard to add some AF. That's the least of their problems though... no AA, no AF, no precievable HDR, no dynamic lighting (at least for spells, just light maps), no self shadowing, POOR shadows that look like they're made from black construction paper (no penumbra, too dark, well at least they aren't jaggy so that's something), and Ayane looks like her face was used to clean the ninja toilets... still it's a pretty game, but a miserable use of the hardware... I'm honestly pretty sure they just dumped NGB's engine onto the PS3 and went from there.
Maybe I'm just full of it and plain wrong, some dev come and slap some sense into me, please.

Lack of AF?
How can there be a lack of AF when AF is just used to handle the mip-mapping that takes care of shimmering in the first place? If everything is razor sharp close or at a distance, then lack of AF wouldn't be an issue right?

There's no mipmapping either...HomerSimpson-Man said:
P.S. I'm hoping I'm crzy and completely wrong, but it sure seems that way.
