I remember the first few screenshots to this game actually looking quite good, but now (especially after seeing those VP2 screenies) the game looks horrible. EA should be ashamed of themselves, especially after the delays, there's no excuse to look this bad.
 
What a big shock, it looks nowhere near as good as the first pics we were shown. £10 says this is about as good as The Getaway. (and if anyone dare try and argue that The Getaway was a good game, please end yourself now because it was utter shit)
 
I'm guessing all those first batch of pics were from the XB 360 version.

While these graphics do look average, that's deffinitly not going to be the major down part of the game. EA is obviously trying to cash grab with the liscence here so anyone who thought this would turn out good trusts EA too much.
 
Wow, that is so ass. Must be 2009 already.

The poses, the models, the textures... omg.

Hires faces are a nice thing but looks stupid when there is no texture memory left for everything else.
 
I think the character models look pretty good. Background textures are the weak part. Of course, there's also little chance it will be worth playing. Not certain yet though.
 
This makes me feel sick. If this is how companies are going to make Mafia games, I hope they NEVER make one based on the Sopranos.
 
If these are current gen shots, why are you people bitching so much? Isn't this supposed to be a GTA clone? The game looks much better than San Andreas or Mafia on XB/PS2.
 
wow. EA has been on a roll lately. i dont think its so much it being current gen but EA not serving the franchise well. They're just out to make a quick buck.

That's what I was gonna say. Seems like most of the people replying have their next-gen goggles on. For a current gen game, it looks fine.

I have only played my DS in weeks and even I find these screens terrible. That's pretty telling :)

Like 'winter' said, you should take a look at some screens of San Andreas and other current-gen games from the same genre before saying things like that. I'm not an EA backer by any means but this is unwarranted.

I think most people just hate EA in general, not so much because of next gen

And of course this is current gen shots, it's in 4:3

The crates in the background in this picture tell me all I need to know about the gameplay. :lol

Haha floating boxes ftw, somebody didnt placed their entity's/brushes too high :lol
 
Man is this game FLAT and in need of proper lighting.
Just made a little test. They seriouslly need to put some time in making better lighting for this game :$

Haha, I know for a fact one of the lead lighters on this game used to work in testing and has no prior art or cg experience. That's the way EA rolls though.
 
It looks fine for a PS2 game in this genre if you ask me. The stuff they showed at E3 was pretty cool so I hope it turns out to be good.
