Then again, the 360 is a last gen console.

and the trailer that was first shown wasn't, so what does that mean?
it means the trailer is newer.

"this stage in development a lot of it is computer generated. Nothing in game is finish"

"the level of scattered detail is higher than Halo3's"

JasonPC360PS3Wii5201d ago

PS3 has and will never have a game this big.

SaberEdge5201d ago

I think it looks incredible. It seems a lot of the detail is lost on some people.

I mean honestly, which one do you think looks better?
http://n4g.com/ViewComImage...

I think the bottom two look better.

iDystopia5200d ago

Not really, but it looks good. Halo is about gameplay anyways. Who has ever bought halo for its graphics. Still this is what halo 3 should have looked like. I like the more realistic aproach. But i want to see better scans of gameplay. No one really knows what it will look like exactly.

NewZealander5201d ago

the game is only 70% complete, so lets just wait for the full game before crying doom and gloom about graphics, im sure it will shape up really well, just look at how far god of war has come along since the demo, its looking amazeing, and im sure halo reach will too.

u got owned5201d ago (Edited 5201d ago )

Looking awesome and this is an old build, cant wait to see the new build.

Megan Fox5201d ago

This game is looking amazing, look at the level of detail in the 1st person view screenshot.

if is true that this is and 4-5 month old build, i can imagine how this game will look like when is done.

SaberEdge5201d ago

Yeah I like the particular look this game has. It looks really amazing.

starchild5201d ago

You shouldn't be so quick to judge. Scans can make games look worse than they are. Do you remember some of the scans of Killzone 2 we got? Some of those didn't look that good. Remember this: http://item.slide.com/r/1/3...

Or this: http://item.slide.com/r/1/6...

Compare those to the Halo Reach scans and I would say Halo Reach looks a lot better.

vhero5201d ago

Images are dead on the link unfortunately. Either way they probably won't be final as it's still too early in the games development to get anything near final graphics.

LEGENDARY PELON5201d ago

Get out of here! Leave!!
We dnt need you BS about Halo this Halo that!
Your proving yourself a hater!!

Like i said, go look at some of your 2080p vids of Unfarted 2 or GOW3! "Just dont get to horny about it"

Like my grandpa once said, haters always hate on the King!!

talltony5201d ago

Which is why I said "No one really knows what it will look like exactly" But from what we have all seen no one should be impressed, thats all I am saying. We just need some freakin gameplay already.

MNicholas5200d ago

It looks not better or worse than one could reasonably expect.

It's running on hardware that was maxed out years ago. It's foolish to continue hoping for miracles.

Traveler5200d ago

Neither console is maxed out. Naughty Dog said Uncharted 2 used the PS3 100% but that doesn't meant that they can't make improvements to how the software uses the hardware. The same can be said for the 360. We will surely see better looking games on both consoles.

MNicholas5199d ago

the PS3 (Uncharted 2, Killzone 2) and 360 (lots of games) are both maxed out already.

The difference is that, unlike the 360's CPU, the Cell benefits tremendously from a little bit of optimization. This means that, unlike the 360's CPU, the Cell has a lot of head-room left while the 360 does not.

Uncharted 1 looks better than any game on the 360 (and until Killzone 2) any game on the PS3 and barely touched the Cell. Goal for the sequel: Develop a system to use all the SPUs all the time.

Uncharted 2 looks better than any other game, even on PS3, and uses all the SPUs on the Cell processor. Goal for the sequel: Now that we have a good system in place to utilize all the SPUs, let's refine the code so that it's more efficient in how it uses the SPUs.

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion474d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad474d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90474d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183474d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90474d ago (Edited 474d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde474d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90473d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde473d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator474d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13474d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183474d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.

Halo’s best Bungie campaign has its worst feature fixed after 12 years

Awesome news - so can we look forward to playing Halo: Infinite with no online issues circa 2033?

just_looken559d ago

"You can download the improved Reach AI mod at Mod DB" This was a mod 343 did nothing so the online will be fixed in our dreams.

SullysCigar559d ago

Par for the course with 343.

Profchaos558d ago

They did say they had a 10 year plan for infinite we just all assumed it would be DLC could of been a 10 year netcode rollout.

But seriously this is a mod the community won't be able to modify infinite in the same way

Cikatriz_ESP559d ago

Combat Evolved was the best campaign, and it's not even close.

just_looken559d ago

You should have tried this version of reach when it first came out remastered for a year there was no sound because 343 could not locate the sound files.

It was a special challenge.

badz149559d ago

more like the bunch at 343i are simply mentally challenged

ACEMANWISE559d ago

Well I guess 12 years is faster than most fixes. I guess this is a cheap way to "remaster" something nowadays.....by just fixing something that used to always be broken.

zidane1341559d ago

Did you even read the article? This is a mod to improve AI from back almost 2 gens ago. Nobody is claiming this is remastering anything. Yeesh.

Crows90559d ago

Halo is dead. Microsoft has other shooter franchises it cares more about now. 343 are no longer Xbox golden studio. They are likely to shift things around or even close it all together and give the IP to someone else.

343i decided to pummel the IP into the ground...and when they see it didn't quite look like Glenn's face they decided to just keep on pummeling. Not sure if Glenn is the IP or the fanbase in this case though.

Profchaos558d ago

343 were never the golden studio they were a hastily thrown together b team when bungie said we want to do something else cya

Crows90558d ago

Well ...I didn't want to say it but I agree. Makes you wonder why Microsoft gave them the IP and didn't keep Bungie or any of the talent they acquired from any studio.

CobraKai558d ago

“ Halo Infinite, Halo 3, or Halo: Combat Evolved. It’s hard to say which of the sci-fi FPS games offers the best experience all round.”
He lost me with Halo Infinite.
