PS3 Trailer

[ZfrkS62]

if any of the Formula 1 graphics were near what gameplay graphics are going to be, god dammit someone find the fast forward button and get us to the unveiling already

Graphics schmaphics... if the game play sucks who cares about th eye candy anyway.

The problem is that if they spent the last 2 years working on the eye candy to exploit the new hardware, one has to woner if they bothered fixing the holes in the engine, play and AI for GT5

First Person Shooters are better and more fun on PC (because of modding) and driving simulations are better on PC because of conrol and computer power and eye candy - that leaves sports games which are already quite good on current hardware.

Someone explain exactly why one would drop $800 (console + 2 game + controller + accesory of some kind) for an XBox 360 or a PS3?

Forza 2 better be = Forza 1 + GT4 ..... and GT5 better be GT4 + Forza 1 ...

Just for anyone whos intrested. the link above is for the metalgear solid for trailer. This game was running fully on the ps3 and was'nt a pre-rendered video. It is very high standard graphics. and gameplay is almost garenteed if its a metalgear solid game.

Anyway I knw I'm english so this may sound strange. But I believe the superbowl is on.

Aren't all the trailers by definition prerendered videos... or at the very least a pre-scripted scene running on the 3D engine with optomised views, options and selections.

Which in the end is still NOT representaive of in-game graphics and play, frame rate, shading and lighting - but rather an advanced show-piece of what the engine can do.

When you boot up your $60 game - you see nothing like the preview trailer..

if you look carefully you'll notice the "ingame previews" from that clip. Any noob can dismiss this clip as just a video but any body with a fetish for the technology will be able to point out the scenes that are ingame.

but... like you said. they are mostly just scripts of prerendered areas and animation.

Im not exspert in these matters so correct me if im wrong. But I did read that during the tokyo gameshow that hideo kojima and his team was actually pausing there MGS4 trailers and moving around the scene in realtime then resuming playback and all this kinda stuff. Does this mean this is proof that MGS4 is actually running these graphics? its cant just be a pre rendered video can it?

Also from all the video's ive seen on the PS3, I aint seen anythign yet that matches the xbox360 lighting capabilities. I'm trying to figuire out which is the best, but the internet is a hard place to find the answer to that question since each website is either full of fanboys defending there console to death, or biased to the console there dedicated to.

One thing that did catch my attention was the sony employee that was sacked because he spoke out loud about how he thought the xbox360 was the better console, seems alil harsh.

Well I was always gonna go for the PS3 over the xbox360 and as someone said, if the F1 games are anywhere near as good as it looks there then its gonna be awesome.

The only thing that really gets me about these new gen consoles is the fact you HAVE to get a new hi def screen or else it almost renders the point of getting a new console useless.

On another note, I think in the next 5-10 years we are gonna be getting pretty close to photo-realistic games.... can't wait

in 5-10 years i'm hoping to have holographic video.

if you shouldn't need a highdefinition tv to enjoy the new consoles. though it helps any newer tv will look great and if you have a projector...


even better.
