Resistance PS3 video(awesome)(also, High res Warhawk)

Smokey Bones said:
Just watched the WH video again..

I think the problem may be that the world looks too empty? Maybe that's why it's not too impressive looking to me. There's water, clouds and what 3-4 big ships in the air; and some little planes thrown in for good measure.

The quality of the vid is such that background detail is harder to make out. Certain things only become visible reasonably close to the camera, so I think we are missing some detail there.

I think this was just a preview though. Technically what they're doing is very sophisticated - if they can maintain that quality across all parts of the game, more and less 'busy', I'll be very impressed.

A little reminder but those are actually december 2005 builds of the games. :D

AFAIK, Harrison only dated the Resistance demo as that. He didn't date the others.

I understand, that's why I'm not COMPLETELY dissapointed. I'm sure that isn't one of the more jaw dropping parts of the game.

I'm fuckin impressed by R&C though.
 
Ah, the files are mp4?/Quicktime, just load them up in the Quicktime player and they work.

But...these videos are still the same ones from GDC, so not exactly reason to jump for joy.
 
am i the only dumbass that cant get the megaupload download working? ive tried a bunch of times on firefox and ie and after the counter runs down nothing happens, and i cant find a link to download...

I've always found people who can determine the quality fo a game's gameplay after five seconds of video amusing. I could show you minute long clips of Halo/Half-Life/whatever that look terribly boring.

(that said, my interest in the game is roughly 0)
if you're talking about me, i'm not the type of person to completely judge a game from 5 second clips. however, there was nothing in those 2 vids that made me remotely interested in either of those games. i saw a little clip of Lair and i think it's beautiful and the idea of flying through the air on a dragon with a bunch of other dragons on-screen excites me.

I-8 gives me a very generic fps vibe & warhawk just didn't have enough going on & it didn't look exciting. with that being said i would never really judge a game unless i've played it.
 
I see cars dissappearing in R&C...This makes me happy..
Why?
Its 1 more step closer to knowing htat it truely is real-time and that the actual game may look like this. :D

I know it's a good ways off, but it doesn't seem to impressive to me right now. Not enough to make my 360 worry at least.

R&C on the other hand...

Well I think that's because they were GDC demonstrations, showing off technologies rather than games. Phil Harrison said during the MotorStorm demonstration that they stripped out most of the game just to show off the technology. It's the same thing for Warhawk, a small envrionment to show of the main technologies. I don't think the final game is going to have those tiny clouds so close to the water. For the more gameplay oriented footage I think we're best off waiting until E3.

You've got to quit the stupid ad that pops up right under the timer.

This demo was mostly Dylan Jobe (of Incognito) flying around the environment talking about various rendering techniques they're using with Cell+RSX. While it certainly looked nice, I wouldn't really consider it a level scenario showing off much of the action we'll see in the final game. A lot of this GDC footage has been taken out of context anyway. Im sure we'll get a more robust glimpse of these builds at E3, hopefully fully playable at that.
 
All games look pretty amazing, especially R&C and Warhawk. :)

I don't think so, the clarification was only made about MS, not WH.

hukasmokincaterpillar summed it up nicely. When you watch the older footage we got with the developer talking over it, all he's talking about is the technologies they're employing. It's clearly a tech demo.
 
R&C looks awesome, can't wait to learn more about that game at E3 hopefully, Resistance and Warhawk look alright, hopefully they'll look alot better at E3 and the gameplay will look better

Maybe tech demo, but not a stripped down one like MS.
 
Warhawk fap
Ratchet and Clank fap

Resistance no third fap?:( Sorry but that video just didn't do it for me, probably the least next gen game I've seen on PS3. I hope physics were turned off, animation unfinished /cut down and graphics are far from finished for that trailer. Otherwise.

Well atleast the weapons looked nice
 
anybody else think they need to give God of War 2 a new costume for kratos? to give a feeling of a new game? they should give him some of that armor seriously

Untold Legends says howdy.

But yeah, Ted Price pointed out a lot of the SPE optimization for physics/interaction hadn't been implemented yet in this build. Plus its not exactly the most riveting scenario we saw here... a dark alleyway shooting some bugs and a couple enemies. I could pick a similar scene from HL2 and say thats all the game had to offer. *shrug* At least the lighting/texturing looked nice. :)
 
Warhawk: 8 out of 10
Resistance: 8 out of 10
R&C: 9 out of 10
Heavenly Sword: 9 out of 10

next!
 
I think that the Resistance suffers a bit from the dark video because the game seems very dark itself. Makes it hard to see any details. But damn that R&C clip is nice!
 
I'm about to find out in ten seconds, but are these more of those encoded-with-an-obscure-third-party-codec type videos? If so, what's the codec and where do I get it? :)

I use BSplayer. That plays EVERYTHING.

resistance/r-c is .avi

so quicktime or winamp should do
 
Everything looks great and all, but why are the clouds so low in the Warhawk clip? It doesn't make sense.
 
:lol I like how Wollans puts there "december 2005 build". Pre-emptive damage control, huh. Resistance looks just uninspired and uninteresting...and as crappy as it looked at E3. R&C looks pretty nice, but I'll wait until a gameplay video. Right now, for me, it's pretty hard to get excited about playing the same damn thing with prettier graphics.

Warhawk...I'm not even gonna bother downloading the vid.

You heard it here first folks.

Just download VLC player. It handles most types of videos just fine with extra no codec installations needed. Pretty kickass video player like that.

Because if they were where they should be, wouldn't he be having to fly for 20 seconds to reach them? That wouldn't have made a very exciting tech demo.
