It's not that I necessarily disagree with your end comment, but jebus man you could have been a bit more forthcoming instead of waiting until you were caught. (It will probably 'look like' that as much as any RT graphics can closely emulate that of CGI) :lol:
That's not to say that I don't think that the real up to date Heavenly Sword doesn't look great, but these screens have a lot of flaws and can be a bit of a roller coaster ride.
They definitely 'seem' have some slight polygon issues (But you can argue that's because they aren't 'covering up' with normal mapping very surface known to man like other games do), you can see it in everything that isn't a part of the 'waterfall background' as it were, from the rocks to the trees; tons of effects are missing, etc.
There's no way these screens are from a recent build. Unless it was the mother of all downgrades in the history of this next gen era thus far.
In all it's PS1 Era Fog and 2D Bitmap Glory.

Looking forward to this game.

wait a tic... so you're saying the screens are too small to form a *positive* opioion around, but they're large enough to make the claim that its xbox1 lvl, has blocky character models, bad water, horrendous textures, etc? hilarious. and you say we lost the ability to remain objective? haha. seriously, dude, if you're going to play that role at least put a bit of effort in.XSamu said:

has the invasion of the thread begun in earnest...?
Dude what are you even talking aboutdai said:
First thing you should do is re-read my post and then re-read yours. Then re-post if you actually get your own point plz.
Did I ever say you couldn't be positive? No. I said it looked nice, but nothing "holy" or "absolutely amazing". Did I even say it looked bad or xbox1 lvl gfx? Where did I say that? Read the entire posts before you start bashing other people plz, you're making a fool out of yourself.
inconsistently underwhelming. I don't know but the visuals seem to have lost the post filter and I don't get why her face is different from shot to shot.... and the ingame stuff seems to be .... well, not very next genish - just not wowey (when it ought to be).
And here's the sinker for me. If you plopped crate man for untold legends PS3 in those screens, How out of place would he look? Not very I think. That's how, lousy I think those stills are.

Cool boxart
Is that the final boxart ? (please say yes)
What do the different logos mean ?
The only thing i want to see is actual gameplay...
This is one of the games that made me buy a PS3. Don't disapoint me NT.

You see all the out of place green shading the farther down in the level it gets? That's PS1 style 'fog' used to hide texture draw in or in this case was probably used when assets weren't complete so people wouldn't be staring at empty holes in the game world, or flat shaded polygons, plus it probably let th game run at an acceptable clip earlier in development when the focus was on play testing.
Look below the rope that Nariko is on and you can see a series of low res flat dark grey/green Bitmaps, obviously place holders for tree tops.
The light on the waterfalls is inconsistent with the rest of the level, as a random observation.
Not that it matters because we've seen a far more up to date version of this level.

wow. maybe you should read the entire thread? i never said you did. seriously, i just found it funny how you singled out one side, and ignored the other, while going on about being objective and shit.XSamu said:Dude what are you even talking about

I think the conflict on these screens is down to amazing art vs technical achievement, yet again.
IMO, this game looks competent technically but downright AMAZING in terms of art.
The scope and atmosphere portrayed in these shots harks back to the way I felt about ICO when the game first came out.
But technically, textures and polygon counts are not up to the heights of R&C or Unchartered.
But I think everyone has good reason to be hyped for this game. It could be the first ICO of this gen.

i don't see any difference.
The money they're spending on this game would've been better spent if it went to the motherland. Africa.
please tell me the bottom pic is the ngage game.

XSamu, Nozi, JCBossman, Pleomax. You know the game looks amazing when these people are busting their asses to damage control how good it looks. I think there are a couple of xbox fanboys missing from this thread but they're probably already banned. :lol
I give this thread an A+.

Last I checked, it goes about like this.DCharlie said:
My favourite platform:
1st gen lasts indefinately, or until the first multi-milion seller releases a sequel.
Examples:
Everything up to Halo2 on XBox was 1st gen.
The "other" platforms:
It starts on 3rd gen if it launched late, the best looking launch titles are edging into 4th gen. Anything that compares favourably to my platform(that I can't argue away), is at least a generation higher.
Examples:
Halo1 started development as 3rd generation, and finished as 4th gen title.
GC with Waggle:
It's on it's 10th generation titles now (2generations per year, 6 year old platform). Which is amusing, because it still looks only comparable to 5th generation PS2 titles releasing this year.

nm the closeup does look kinda weird
Looking great as always.
This game has amazing art.
Some things look unfinished but they have time to work on it still, I assume these are a couple of months old also.
For those who hate the hair art, too bad. That's how they want it to look.
After seeing the E3 videos and Heroes video I can almost say that this one will be one of the best games this year for me. I am so sure of this.

8 pages, I said wow. Just how you judge battles by the number of soldiers involved, you judge game's looks/importance by the ammount of pages it gets on GAF.

no! don't do it.le.phat said:
your game looks so much better without it. keep it out!
Ynos Yrros said:
Really?
Thats what it comes down to?
I find it rather amuzing that there's some unspoken rule where you can't criticize a game's graphics, a rule that applys mostly to big ps3 games. I think that rather ruins the board, anyway i agree with what was said about these screens, competent tech with amazing art.
We have seen much better media of the game that actually looks impressive, i don't understand how this particular screens can be considered amazing or get comments like "wow". But i guess it's one of those cases where the minds of some are set to say wow at the mention of the game, anyway...
I wanna see more videos, the last one in heroes was really cool-.

hmmm, if you check the mass effect thread the same thing went on...people were accused of trolling etc...I think peeps are bringing the double standards...personally I think this game looks great...Im not surprised some people are hating on it though. Its the nature of this place rather than the game
peace
nelsonroyale said:
Oh for sure. In this place if you say a game looks good on the rival platform you're a fanboy, if you say it looks bad you're a troll, hating and whoring without a middle ground in this place is standard.
The difference is in the ammount of bannings, where dual standards really show up, but this isn't a discussion to have in here.
Anyway, i would also like to see some bosses, just to give us some perspective on what kind o bosses we are getting in this game.

No actually it is a first gen title. Just like Gears of War imo is a first gen title. Mass Effect is a second gen title.
