Still rockin' the dev kit controllers, it seems.

..it's not that they can't, but no ones bothering.
IIRC, it's just a tech demo. I bet you we'll not see a game like that. If we do, it'll be probably short and lacking as I assume then textures will take up shitloads of space.

apparently textures in that demo took up less than 1.5GB of the PS4's 8GB.
Meh, i'll believe it when I see an actual game running like that, in 1080p, and in 60fps as they say without any scaling down.

I want to believe, but I just can't! I'm too cautious. I will however gladly stuff some crow down if I'm wrong (because I really want to be).

Poor textures on those rocks on the right... PS4 sucks!!! lol
Yeah that's the critter. Never thought anyone could make a goblin look adorable. That's a next gen achievement right there...
Was watching this at my work and when a co-worker passed by, they were like what movie is that and which actor was it. I told them it's a game. He didn't believe me. I said look for yourself and after finding out it was in-game and running realtime on PS4, he immediately went to Amazon ordered a PS4.

Unfortunately no. But they apparently plan to release some making of footage soon. Expect a direct feed video along with it (I hope).

Hahaha, I see the ressemblance.
Everything is being calculated on the fly. You can move the camera, change things around, interact with the scene.

I think it's of comparable quality to deep down and agni's philosophy.
A lot of people are counting this gen out just because a lot of stuff is up-rezzed last gen ports....they're going to be in for a huge surprise at the quality we will be getting.
Especially since QD has significantly passed all of their tech demos with the full game that follows. This isn't even running on final hardware. While it's true that QD's games are far more controlled experiences than other genres, I expect we're going to see some amazing stuff out of Sony's first party throughout this gen.

Yep. And looking at games like The Last of Us and Uncharted 3, they arguably look better than Quantic Dream's efforts and aren't quite as restricted either.
Heck, InFamous: Second Son looks downright amazing and a clear generational leap, is nearly a launch title, and is open world.
I feel like I'm going to be comparing next gen games' amount of unique detail and lighting to TLoU for a while.
And yeah, SS looks incredible and SP isn't even known for being one of the graphical powerhouses.

Between this and Deep Down I'm really curious to see 1st Party PS4 efforts. I started wondering though. Why aren't there any tech demos like this for the Xbox One.

man get out of here with that crap. You speak as if a gtx 670 couldn't run that demo at 60fps and above.
:edit Lets not forget about the Infiltrator tech demo by Unreal which was far bigger in scale than that tech Demo. It looks impressive sure but that's thanks to the skill of the developers, the ps4's hardware isn't that great outside of the design. It's still by comparison a mid to low grade pc. Until I start seeing graphics like that in games with AI and physics all in the package I won't really be impressed with the ps4 hardware wise.

Rofl!!!! Are you kidding me? only 4gb of ram used? Im guessing even the games showed at e3 were running on 4 as well? I can't imagine what 7 will bring.
OMG THE HDR
I'm with you on this.

He has a point but is a bit clueless. The tools are only part of the equation. TA good craftsman is also important. Of course top end PC hardware is more powerful, but there are a lot of talented devs creating stuff for the system. It is part of reason that stuff like GoW:A can hold up to stuff on top end PC hardware. Dev talent, not hardware.

The demo is incredible, but it is a tech demo and from QD, so I'm not interested in whatever semi-gaming QTE experience they have to offer. I'm looking forward to seeing what Naughty Dog can accomplish with this hardware because I want to see what the best next gen conventional game will look like.
Farenheight and Heavy Rain were awesome games, different strokes for different folks, I suppose.
One thing no one should deny though, their games always end up looking better than their tech demos do. This alone makes for a very exciting proposition.

PS4 is not a low grade PC. I think it's more akin to a mid-range gaming PC. Also, if we get games which look as good as TLS, I certainly won't be complaining.
Not sure what a GTX670 has got to do with this. Besides, that GPU costs as much as a PS4.

Just because Rocket cars exist doesn't make a Ferrari low end slow cars. Your sense of scale has been skewed by over priced cards that no game developers will ever target.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
The 8GB announcement took virtually everybody by surprise.
So, it's no stretch to assume virtually all games shown in playable form were using 4GB as the target.

An amazing demo with brilliant graphics. I really hope some games get to that level of fidelity and image IQ.
