Yea, no idea what that thing is there.
I agree, Halo could be a better looking game, however you have to take in consideration the scale of the battles that play out. No other console FPS has that scale with over a dozen enemies per encounter.Amir0x said:The best you could call the way Uncharted sold was "mediocre", so we're playing at semantics. They put millions of dollars into making it, they advertised it with commercials, and they squeezed a couple hundred thou out of its first few months at best.
Halo, by contrast, sells fifteen billion copies every millisecond and yet ODST was such a low rent effort visually that it felt as if the commercial for the game had higher production values.
I don't even think it looks like a good game period. I applaud its use of color, in contrast to many FPS, but it has abysmal character models, extremely low geometry compared to other games in the genre on the platform. It'd make sense if they lowered that detail for multiplayer, it perplexes me that it looks so bad EVEN in single player. I don't mean to be nitpicky, but the fucking wheels on the vehicles in the early level of ODST isn't even round. It's like a hectagon or some shit.
None, and it is not a point that should be argued.Rez said:wait, what game has done 'online' better than Halo 3 on consoles?

How the hell does anyone outside of Bungie even have the opportunity to take pics off sreeen anyway?
What am I missing?
And for those proudly claiming "same engine", give me a fucking break. THEY ARE STILL, BLURRY IMAGES. No, YOU cannot discern game engine from that limited information.
Guy (who posted them on MLG), said he played it at MS. MS must be part of the testing too, as they expand their netcode testing.voltron said:Ok Im confused.

I know.. have come to really losing my temper with so many god damn idiots judging GOD DAMN ALPHA CAMERA-PHONE PICTURES!voltron said:And for those proudly claiming "same engine", give me a fucking break.

You have to look harder than that. ZOOM IN DAMNIT, ZOOM IN!Amir0x said:I can't tell shit about anything from these screens, except it seems the guns are more detailed.

Please learn to model human faces before you release this.

If you are seriously going to draw any conclusions about visual fidelity from a from blurry, off-screen pics of an early development build, you have issues better suited to a thread on the OT that the gaming forum.kylej said:I have compared the rock textures in these screens to the rocks in Uncharted 2.

Looks like some sort of distortion field effect.Second said:This pic makes me think the shots are fake. Just look ate the mountain texture. That's just horrific.

Ooops.

There are a lot of interesting features on display (backpacks?), but graphics are not one of them.
Tashi016 said:Well shit, I would that people don't make their decision whether or not to purchase games based on graphics. Especially not on this forum.
No_Style said:Seriously though, those pics are pretty much the worse. Why are leakers are the worst photographers?

Amir0x said:Whatever, I was always bad at geometry!
Octagon! That's eight sides, right? That one!
kylej said:You're right, I can't think of any reason why these aren't direct captures.

fucking sad when that's the first thing that comes to people's mind.

Haunted said:Off-screen nature, blurriness and size of the shots obviously contribute to the "the completely new engine kinda looks like the old one" effect these are having.
How are you able to tell that the game is using the same graphics engine from a few blurry pictures? Let alone that Bungie has said that the engine being used for Reach is an entirely new engine.MMaRsu said:Looks great too! Too bad its still using the same engine though .
Honestly: Do some people just enjoy concluding so much from so little?OMG Aero said:Well this is a bit disappointing, I was expecting something all new but it just looks like Halo 3 with better graphics.
And where did you hear that? Because Bungie has said otherwise.jett said:Why do people think this game is gonna use a "completely new engine"? It'll use the same thing Halo 3 and ODST used.

What is this, a Nintendo thread?
There's no need to pretend around here. In Xbox 360 and PS3 threads, individuals know graphics are one massive part of the game experience.
