cubeadvance Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Seriously, this had better perk up. I can't be arsed to pay all that money for a sub-par shooter that seems to be going down like a lead balloon, and a high def version of a game I already have.

squirtle Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 You know someone who's working on the game don't you? Bethsda or whatever come up with the goods they get praise, the console looks great and well kitted out so it gets praise. Bizzare seem to have worked their ass off to create the best looking and most complete game for launch window so of course they get praise.Rare release a shiney looking FPS with sub far cry graphics that according to reports plays like it's 1998 and also now runs at 25FPS. Yes, let's sing their praises in the street. Start the parade! Also wasn't Halo locked at 30fps with the occasioanl dippage. This isn't even there yet. ← Ok, to be fair, as nice as Oblivion did look in that video, it ran like a dog. The frame rate was all over the place. Second, Bizarre have turned out what looks like a miracle. I'll wait and give mu full verdict when I see more than one car on the track and it still holding up (replay footage doesn't count). Halo was not locked at 30fps. Not even close a lot of the time. As for me knowing someone, ha! I wish. I agree that from the screenshots it don't look the best. But man alive, I don't need to blurt out every thought in my head all the time. You've said it doesn't look too good. Now move on. Stop repeating it.

badgerpie Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 But that's probably not going to speed them actually producing the next Halo any quicker is it ? if it was a choice between a mediocre PDZ and some new Halo news, or a version of PDZ that was so good it kept us satisfied until Halo3 came out, I know which one i'd go for.

Beertiger Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 See what I mean... ← Pff that was me saying that they may be forced to show the Halo 3 hand sooner rather than later. IF PD0 is a disspointment and people start to lose interest then all they'll need is a teaser for Halo 3 and suddenly everyone's excited again.Other than that I've only posted the new information and given a comment. It's not like I'm going back to the first shots ever released and saying they suck. If they release a new HD video that looks amazing then I'll probably comment that I was wrong and I can't wait. You'll probably see nothing wrong with that at all but it's exactly the same as posting something negative. I just call it as I see em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazychu Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Ok, to be fair, as nice as Oblivion did look in that video, it ran like a dog. The frame rate was all over the place. ← Was that not a pre E3 build though? Running on an Alpha dev kit no doubt then. I'm sure they'll have fixed the framerate by now.

museman123 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/655/655574p1.html Halo 3 ready when it's ready. Has this been posted? Robbie Bach, President of Microsoft's Xbox entertainment and devices division, indicated that earlier comments made by Bill Gates that Halo 3 would be available to counter the release of Sony's PlayStation 3 next-generation gaming console were "philosophical" and not to be taken as a literal pledge, according to an interview at InfoWorld.com.

scottcr Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 semi-cellshaded look about crackdown makes it much more appealing to me. Looks like a busier and more hi-res XIII now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beertiger Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Looks bland and shit. Oh wait, I haven't played it yet! IT LOOKS FOOKING AWESOME I THINK ← Yep keep up that positive thinking, negative thoughts kill pokemon.Scottcr - It doesn't look as cartoony as XIII though which I think lets it down a bit, it's kind of stuck between realism and cell shading. It's an interesting choice though and possibley one to watch as I have no idea how it plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 This is Perfect Dark Zero though, ya know THE big 360 game. The most important launch title since Halo and it looks little better than Quake 3. ← So you've played the finished version then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretentious_helvetica Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Nice railroad stones texture! Hang on, it'll play beautifully!! It doesn't matter then. Actually, anyone shelling out money for a 360 and not getting beautifulness in their visuals would feel cheated. I want modelled railroad stones, goddamnit. At least make em normal mapped and covered in bloom or something. Where's the horse hordes? Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sega_kid Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 i had a brief chance to play perfect dark the other week, and to me it seemed great. no noticeable framerate issues at all, and yes it looks gorgeous including the walls! up until seeing it, i had no interest in it, so it came as a pleasent surprise when i actually saw how good it was (and it was running from a dev kit) i think everyone slating it on here will be eating at least some of their words when they get a chance to play it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
