I get the feeling that Sony told Ready at Dawn to just make a gears of war clone

Kind of like how PS3's launch title was a sci-fi WW2 FPS that wanted to emulate the success of Halo and Call of Duty 2.

 

[Terbinator]

You should probably try harder. As someone else pointed out, your comparison is wrong.

Nah, they got the joke.

 

[Abriael]

Press exclusives. Flying in the face of fair competition in news reporting since 1886.

 

[Goldmund]

First thing that came to mind:


DEAD SPACE


GEARS OF WAR (Boomers!)


UNCHARTED 3


RESIDENT EVIL 6


THE LAST OF US


RESIDENT EVIL 4

God damn it.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

Well yeah its not a video its screenshots.

I like the game's aesthetic a lot, but I can't deny that these shots are not very inspired. Other than the atmospheric haze and camera filters, these interiors aren't any more interesting or advanced than those we've seen in current gen games.

This is okay with me, because I don't play games strictly for their set-dressing, but I completely understand why someone would not be impressed by these shots.

This post is kinda scary good.

 

[Yoshichan]

These game websites can be such shit. No 1080p screens, really?

The game isn't even 1080p though, right?

 

[Can Crusher]

Lightning and environment in the 3rd shot reminds me of Resident Evil Remake pre rendered backdrops.

 

[Metalingus5150]

I'm getting Resident Evil 4 vibes from this game.

 

[not_so_special]

i dont know why but im not very impressed with these screens

 

[VanWinkle]

The game isn't even 1080p though, right?

Well it would be 1080p screenshots with the bars.

 

[Salex_]

I wish they switched it to 1920x1080 or made it an option so people can stop talking about it all the time. It's so annoying seeing every The Order thread turn into this resolution battle.

 

[Liha]

The atmosphere looks good.

 

[Dragon]

The game isn't even 1080p though, right?

1920 x 800 right?

Nah, they got the joke.

Maybe you could fill me in because I've seen funnier things on a modern episode of The Simpsons.

Oh yes, despite the fact Resistance was announced before CoD2 was even released, it was in fact a direct result of CoD2's sales.

 

[iamshadowlark]

This game looks fucking amazing.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Game looks insane. What game will be the first one to bring in the next gen in crazy fashion: Infamous: SS or The Order?

Yeah I understand that.

But looks boring is a weird word choice.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

It's rendered in a resolution that will map 1:1 with the pixels in a 1080p display. It's just missing parts of the image where the bars are. It is not being upscaled to fit a 1080p resolution, which is what's important for image quality.

Holy fuck, that's kinda depressing even though I love re4, TLOU and DS :/

 

[Vizzeh]

Its design choice...the game isn't due for a long time, they could run 1080p easily with the time they have...they said day1 the aspect.

 

[UrbanRats]

The game looks great, but what's up with the texture filtering on those bricks? Almost looks like there's no AF, or something.

Then again, these images are all shitty and compressed.

 

[Feindflug]

Looks amazing IMO, that soft look in the IQ gives it a CG like look.

Can't wait to see some gameplay footage, hopefully at the VGA's.

 

[SSReborn]

Wow alot of quality is lost when the screens are stretched out like that. They look much better when you look at them in their smaller form on the actual site and they should've just uploaded all of the ones they had in the magazine.

 

[Violater]

Nice detail on the hair.

 

[TheKastorian]

Looks great! The images are a bit dark though...

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Correct, in the article they are talking about the gameplay demo Game Informer got to see.

Damn, so it is. Damn it, I can't wait for this game.

 

[walking fiend]

doesn't look special really; small scales, reduced lighting to cover for shortcomings

 

[KOHIPEET]

Lightning is simply fenomenal. I want to see this in motion.

 

[iamshadowlark]

Are these images from scans? There's something weird about the pictures.

sure thing bud

 

[Salvor.Hardin]

Really hope this game is good. I would buy a PS4 for it.

I wonder how many times this has been explained since it was announced.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Shit looks real on my phone. But that's on my phone.

 

[StuBurns]

There are a couple more shoots I'm guessing we'll get soon, one of them shows an encounter in a street... Prepare yourself.

RaD pitched the game to them, not the other way around. Plus from what they've said it doesn't really sound very much like some hardcore TPS. There are shooting sections but i'm pretty sure there are also supposed to be slower more exploration friendly sections where you're investigating.

 

[FourMyle]

Looks amazing

 

[jett]

The game isn't even 1080p though, right?

Same difference. Like calling 2.35:1 blu-rays not 1080p.

 

[Silky]

Not impressed. Need cold, uncompressed footy.

 

[Anteater]

I think it's the Chromatic Aberration, it adds a bit of depth but also seem to "blur" the background a bit.

 

[purnoman3000]

Terrible image compression but you can at least tell the game will look fantastic on screen.

I for one love the aspect ratio.

Skip putting it into my veins and just shove it up the ole cornhole for me, can't wait.

[Pai Pai Master]

I get where they're coming from but these are really awful choices for the first in-gameplay screenshots we're getting for this game. Most of the screens are just characters standing around in dusty empty rooms, and there's one with a guy kneeling under cover and we can barely see what he is hiding from.

Screenshots for this game are a huge occasion and they kinda blew it, reminds me of when we got Killzone screenshots and one of them was just a fucking box on top of another box. Just bad choices all around.

 

[IonicSnake]

I see that these are not all the screens that they had in the article. My favorite one is not there.

 

[Always-honest]

Lightning is simply fenomenal. I want to see this in motion.

Just because someone helped me once, it's lighting, without the n .

But yeah... This looks amazing.

Lol at the guy who compared the screens to other games. Brilliant.

/sigh.

Are they using the letter boxing at all for UI elements?

 

[jacksepticeye]

Holy shit that's good looking

 

[Dennis]

Those are disappointing.

Last of Us looks better*. I hope it is due to shit quality images from GI.






*I WILL post screenshots if challenged.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

I must live ina cave, but... what is this game's genre ? Shooter ? multiplayer game ?

 

[VanWinkle]

They should have at least shown one screenshot with a set piece in it, instead of all/most being screenshots of a room. Still looks great, obviously, even though the pictures are annoyingly small and low quality.
