Awesome PS3 gfx....

Doobiwan, I get what you're saying. Then edit the post and say that. But crossing out everything and saying it's bull**** now that you find out it's over 2 years old, is just stupid...

No, because I still think those are b***shots, my sceptical opinion and my logical deduction tell me not to believe them.

Development starts low and works up. If you have shots, as good as your intended final product, over a year before your dev platform is even available, those are target renders by definition.
 
After seeing the hyped up Killzone 2 fake gameplay footage i wont believe in anything for the PS3 unless its a proper review of the game. Have already had enough lies and PR k@k from pretty pictures for PS3 games.
 
for a guy who's name is "retro" you DO care alot about nice graphics huh ?
 
lol... this thread's topic is gone to a galaxy far far away already. :p
 
i think the graphics are valid... somewhat awesome... dont see how they better then half life 2 on my geforce 6600GT...

and looking at gears of war on the xbox... nothing to really compare.

mapping a photo onto a well built model is easy.

i think the ps3 is an awesome console... but my decisions to go for xbox was price centric... cuz as far as i can see they seem to be the same in other departments. er... except ps3 doesnt have gears of war :D
 
That's the one I posted, what I mean is what's the source for the original post? The one you're basing the fact that the pics are fake and the PS3 is in trouble cause they're re-releasing the same pics?

GavinMannion? Can't find the source anymore?

;)
 
I wasn't even looking I start ignoring you when you lose the plot...

I never said they where fake, I said they could be. It was also my opinion that the PS3 might be in trouble with Sony demoing the same screen shots again. I took that from what you gave me.

The original beginning of my story was here http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-34650.aspx

From your website:

It has been pointed out that this montage was made from pictures that where first shown to the media in 2005. Therefore it has to be called fake...

From your first post:

I am now calling bull **** on these images.

It was also my opinion that the PS3 might be in trouble with Sony demoing the same screen shots again. I took that from what you gave me.

The link I gave you was from IGN with an article where Sony tried to show that the video they showed wasn't pre-rendered. It's was from beginning last year. Nothing about Sony demoing the screenshots again.
 
Playing with semantics here Retro,

The pictures are real. They are possibly not in game pictures. The montage was in the news yesterday and it contained pictures which where over 2 years old. Why the sudden revival of old pictures. Sony re-showed a demo to prove that it wasn't fake but they never played a game they just showed a moving camera.

My opinion. Getaway does not look like that in game therefore fake/inaccurate images.
 
These graphics aren't as good as the ones in GTA IV's trailer. Should we be calling BS on this release as well?

Unless there is a trailer I missed I didn't think GTA IV was in game footage?

Videos:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjJO9FhAYNE --> CGI... Very nice but not gameplay, more like a cut scene
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et-iyIuy88o --> CGI... even nicer, great reflections on the vehicles but this is not even a cut scene it is just a wow video and no gameplay at all
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00j51vXprYk --> Phil chatting about how Blu-Ray is fantastic and moving a camera around a small area in PCircus... again no gameplay and not even a cut scene.... just another video that means nothing.

Sorry but this is just like the Motorstorm hype, they show us things which are fantastic and then release games which don't match the expectations. Not that motorstorm looks bad but Sony made it look so much better.

I regret posting about this now

I dunno, ask the guy who posted them. But why is the PS3 suddenly in trouble cause some dude posted the pics again? That's what I don't get.

GavinMannion, I don't see Sony saying anywhere that these pics are ingame. What they are saying is that it's not pre-rendered. And that was a year ago already. It's as if you're looking for reasons to diss Sony?

I don't see people running around calling fake and bull**** on all the 360 trailers out there, even though they're just videos as well.
