$199 Playstation 3, New SKU Inbound?

[semitop]

Semi, I have played them all, and it is not a very polygon heavy game. The game uses abandoned temples, and abandoned Villages, all made of STONE. All the emphasis is on Kratos and who he is fighting at present.

Not even going to debate it further......

FALSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not even going to debate beyond that. I played them all as well.

Did you even watch that? GAming isnt just about polygons either. Particle effects and physics ftw, environment realization isnt just poly

just about everything we've seen in the video oozes technical class, especially in terms of lighting and texture work.

From digitalfoundry.... guess i debated a bit more than i intended

[pezz]

so whats your choice going to be, get a ps3, half little exclusive games to play (most of which are single player) or you get a wii and enjoy all the crazy party games and watch the ladies work out to wii fit

and yes them clearing the store means the ps3 slim is on its way

but 40GB model dead long time

[semitop]

no real diff besides hard drive size lately so it not quite dead

You make this too easy:

DF says:

• Low resolution buffer for smoke.
• Decent Texture filtering
• Colur Palette Hides ALiasing.
• Depth of Field BLURS BACKGROUND
• Large Scale environments with no activity
• Flames are light sources but cast no shadows nor change existing ones.
• Statues show compression issues at angular details, before up close LOD POP's In...
• Feathers use low res buffers
• Opaque blood to avid rendering transparencies
• Low Res environment maps
• Static Clouds
• Edge Aliasing noticable in colour changes
• BAKED in AO in several textures to save on rendering
• Kratos has no shadowmap of his own while under another shadow
• The Environment is destroyed revealing pre-baked showmaps, so you can know if something is going to be destroyed.
• Rocks look out of place without Ambient Occulsion (AO)

LOL, poor dude, I have analysing video and textures since Quake 1 days....

Again, I am proven right.. great lighting, so so textures, with all the focus on Kratos and his current enemy and ALL Art direction not technical programming prowess.
GREAT SERIES, great gameplay, but it no genius coding, it is all Art and art direction.

Semi , I am at 37 secs in so far with three minutes to go.... Oh lord, too easy..

so this fails technically , but is still a good game

Hmmmmm? Any analysis of any game will show things like that. No game on a console goes without compromise... the fact is they called it what u said it wasnt.

depth of field is a bad thing? What kind of activity u want in the environment? Rocks moving and talking? Or did you miss the waving flags, smoke and creatures in parts of the game?

goes to show you if the game runs at 1080p and 60 fps it has nothign to do with power of the ps3..

[Nestersan]

Semi a try defend him PS3, the fact is the game is no technical showstopper. SF IV might push the PS3 more than that... ROTFL
The best thing is that he cannot complain cause is DF say so, word for word....

As for 1080P, with no AA how hard could that be ??

[semitop]

Another pointless argument. Here starts the propaganda that typically kills ps3 game sales. If those "negatives" (cause they are likely in several games and are not necessarily bad) are the only things in the vid then why did the DF ppl say it oozes technical class? Well.... w/e to u.

Pezz i dont get what u saying so i not going comment.

answer to this

And i guess neither is a refurb from manufacture 199-399$ console thats 1/2 expected to last you the year.

I hear gow 3 is aiming for 1080p at 60FPS. If they pull that off u and the rest of ur ps3haters will have to shaddup

from what nesta post if it runs at 1080p at 60 fps, is is nothing another hardware couldnt have done because the games doesnt require alot to run
