First Halo 4 in game images [Up: Third New Screenshot In OP]

I notice jaggies on all console games because....they are all jaggy at that low low resolution.
Considering this, I don't think Reach was any worse than other games.

Compared to Halo 3, definitely. But it wasn't perfect, and IQ has moved on since Reach with stuff like FXAA.

I agree. And in motion, Reach looked amazing.

I was talking more about the blurriness.

I agree. It annoys me too, even. It's just that I'm so used to it now that I expect it.

Looks like it might just be an issue with the rig, rather than the model itself. Right hand looks fine, left hand looks really stretched.
Some crappy photoshop, but for fun here is one comparison with that Reach shot with it's background blurred.
nicely done.
Honestly I think it's a little depressing that we expect it now, but I digress.
Less than four hours before we get a trailer that will hopefully (it won't) contain some gameplay.
Are you kidding me?
Those images were WAY before those games came out. This is a MUCH better indicator of what we will be getting considering the game is not that far away from coming out.
What is with the gaming side and Halo?

Hey gaiyz remember how good Halo 2 looked?
Or Halo 3?
Remember how Bungie promised these were in-engine and this was exactly what we got in-game?
Oh wait, this is 343 so we should totally just take their word for it.
To be fair, those were in engine. They weren't lying, they were just very careful about what they said.
Really?
As someone who used to play a lot of Halo, I didn't even notice that the first one was Reach and the second one was 3. Halo 3 and Reach are extremely consistent in art style. Yes, there are minor details such as the business of armour and ODST is easier to pick out because of its colour pallet. But you sound like a crazy person when you're in complete disbelief that anyone could mistake those two images as coming from two different sequels.
fucking what.
I didn't get the memo where people with different opinions aren't allowed to post in a discussion thread.
That's the very definition of supersampling.
No.

Dude all you've been doing is bitching in this thread about how the other Halo screenshots were not indicative of the final product and so we should disregard these too...
Except for the fact that this game is coming out in like 6 months (most likely), while those reveals were closer to 20 months before launch. So enough with your constant bitching and bringing up Bungie. It's getting really lame and annoying.
So it was excusable because they had no idea that the actual consoles would never produce such images at an acceptable framerate?

There's just three and a half hours left, jeez...
I never said it was excusable did I?
Personally I HATED how Bungie showed us shit too early and to see it drastically changed when the retail product hit. Again those images you posted where long before the games hit, Halo 4 is coming out soon so it is MUCH closer if not exactly what we will be seeing in the final game.
My brain refuses to understand the bitching going on.
I'm happy for those two shots because it makes the 4hrs wait less painful but excpet the few finds about the new code piece and the finger tech we have nothing.
looking at a picture resolution tells me nothing.
343i basically just said, "yeah look at those pics, pretty, no? our game will look pretty."

It would be supersampling if they were then downsampled to 720p. Nobody was trying to deceive you.
My greater point is that there's a history of deception surrounding Halo reveals, and the 360 can't produce moving images of the quality shown in the OP shots.
I fucking love Halo.

In Bungie's defense, the Spartan models of the Halo 3 beta did look like the in-game versions of that in-engine MC render.
Why wouldn't it? It's healthy discussion.
It actually does though.

Umm, someone's a little defensive I say...
Personally, I don't think it's that unreasonable for the game to look like this in game. It looks good but not THAT good.
And you wouldn't call that deception?
from the pic release
Environments are where the goods are apparently.
Hummmm, sounds mighty good for immersion.

For some reason this reminds me of the Killzone 2 gameplay reveal with that infamous screenshot. I can't wait to see this thing in motion.
It's a first-person perspective game. If you don't have a debug kit, you'll never be looking at MC from this angle, except in cutscenes. Were you deceived into thinking Halo was going third-person?
That looks like screen capturing from Halo 3 and Halo 2 reveal trailers. Why not post the first released in-game screenshots of those games, its sort of what this thread is about you know.
Do you honestly think they stand financially to gain from a couple of doctored promos? I see your point but other than creating debates like these, its main purpose is to look nice.

Would you? If so, why? You know the term in-game exists and yet they use the term in-engine. That should alert you.
I thought it was a modified Halo 3 -> Halo: Reach [-> Halo 4] engine?
