First PS3 In-Game images NSF56k Fanboy's be wary.

Well say what you can about power but those aren't impressive. I don't know how they were planning on launching in spring.

Hopefully they'll give this one the same re-treatment the Frame City Killer is getting.

I dunno, they look current PC quality to me.

Take your pick if thats a good or bad thing.

[tholly]

doesnt look too bad....and im sure after a year or so developers will be able to get a lot outta the system (no, im not a fanboy, i love all 3 big companies and will get all 3 systems...i have the 360 already)

No it definitely doesn't look too bad, but it certainly doesn't come close to big Next-gen experience we're already seeing. Which is definitely not what Sony has been preaching and it certianly doesn't do much for the people sitting on the fence who have already seen products like Fight Night and GRAW running in real-time.

If that's what we see at launch things are gonna be very interesting.

RE 4 on the gamecube still looks better then that.

[incubus421]

Definitly not bad, and I'm definitly not dissapointed.
It would be alot better to see these pictures in an actual clip to see how smooth/unsmooth the animations and what not are. We will not see full potential for quite some time. I expect great things, as they said at the last E3 that the PS3 has two times the power of a XBox360. And Xbox360 has some pretty impressive looking games around.

GAF and the rest of the internet has already made fun of these screenshots over and over. These screenies are easily on par with the 'badness' that is Wallguy.

This truly is a time of 4-D gaming.

[stressboy]

My impressions: The environments don't look too bad. I would not mind seeing shots with more color in them, and I would like to see it in motion before I make a final judgement.

The main character looks absolutely horrid. I mean seriously.. who the fucked designed him?

[badinsults]

It looks pretty good, but I would be lying if I said I was blown away.

Remember when the N64 came out? The graphics for that blew me away. Same with the Dreamcast. This level of graphics has already been achieved by the Xbox 360, and even the Gamecube.

regardless of the quality of the graphics the content is mad weak for "first look" screenies.

i'm not an xbox fan- don't own one don't plan to- but let me just play devils advocate and show, for comparison purposes, one of the first screens that was made available for DOA4- one of the 360's first games. posted on gaming-age.com in May 2005.



that's what i wanna see in a "first look" screeny: close-cropped action, not too much empty background, tons of detail, way too many polygons to count, nice lighting effects, nice action shot, more than one character, and titties, titties, titties.

Haha, good point. Nothing tells me a system is great like Hitomi's sweet titties.

Show of hands: Who glanced at that first screen and immediately though "OOOH, a new Medievil!"?

With the widescreen format and the current-gen graphics I thought "Oooh, a new Medievil for the PSP!".

[Tan]

those are screens for the untold legends game coming to ps3, that's like showing off dark alliance 2 as a typical xbox game lol

[towerofsong]

Those screenshots look incredibly poor to me, not at all what I was expecting to see. But well, maybe PS3 is hard to programme for again and it will take a while to get going.
And well, maybe it's just a crap game.

Anything claiming to be a screenshot of a PS3 game in action is making quite a claim, since just TWO DAYS AGO Ken Kutaragi announced that final Dev Kits wont be shipped until June. So those graphics probably are on par with current PC, because it's running on a current PC and being developed on a current PC. I find it highly unlikely, and very improbable that those images are of the PS3 version.

Just my two cents.

You know they send out beta kits that are close to but not exactly final hardware right? While i doubt that the final game will look that bad, it is now running on something considerably more PS3 like then a PC.

But that aside here's an article that discusses how they're using the cell with the game. http://ps3.ign.com/articles/695/695890p1.html

even if that's the case there are much better looking games currently available for PC. a top of the line graphics card and the right game can look way better than that screenshot does- and any developer who's designing a game for the PS3 has a nice top of the line graphics card.

edit:

but, again, i don't think it's the quality of the graphics that make this look so bad, it's the barren, simplistic lay-out. it's reminiscent of the sorts of screens we were getting from PSone games (tomb raider anyone?).

[Lothars]

Looks pretty average but considering the type of game looks good

IMO to compare the screenshots to doa 4 screenshots to totally different looks but It's not that impressive of graphics so far, we will see.

[sabre2922]

hmmm those screenshots look like a hybrid PS2-lotsa textures-GC-SHINY STUFF- game

$400-$500 for THIS naaa ill stick with my current slim line PS2 thank u very much Sony or at least until MGS4

Even though the GC is all but dead -they r practically giving them away in Japan- Im sure that Twilight Princess will look just as good as this PS3 game

I go for what system has the GAMES not wich one has an extra polygon or two thats why I prefer PS2 for current gen over the others n to be honest the Xbox360 is looking better and better everyday especially if they continue to get large amounts of 3rd party support here in the U.S. - I dont give a shit about what happens in Japan
