Wet - Screenshots released on illuminate labs lighting tech website

Courtesy of A2M. "A2M has used Turtle in the past, and we were consistently impressed with the speed as well as the results. When we needed a solution to generate lightmaps in our proprietary level editor, we turned to Beast and haven't looked back. Beast allows us to produce high quality lighting at an incredible rate, which is instrumental in creating the unique visual style that sets WET apart from any other product on the market." David Lightbown, Senior Artistic Technical Director at A2M Montreal

The lighting for this game is amazing! WET and Bayonetta remind me of each other.

I just eye puked from the over whelming HDR and bloom, it's meant to be eye catching for the stupid consumer and well, you figure the rest out.

pwnsause5587d ago

seems like alot of Sony 1st party games use their products alot all by looking at that site, primarly Killzone 2. And yea, WET looks good so far.

LinuxGuru5587d ago

Good lighting?

This looks like crap Unreal Engine post-processed FUZZY lighting.

Nothing looks special about this engine at all. I hate fuzzy lighting. It's not amazing, it's annoying and way over the top.

Hey look at me everyone! I can add lots and lots of bloom to every single object on screen and say I have an awesome lighting engine!

Killzone 2's lighting engine, as well S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (with global illumination turned ON!), are unsurpassed by anything in existence currently or in the near future.

Do you remember when Doom 3 came on the scene? Wow, that was truly a giant leap in lighting and shadow effects, I hope to see another leap like that soon.

LinuxGuru5587d ago

Yes, I do. Doom 3 was an amazing sight to behold, and it still is to some extent.

I believe Killzone 2's incredible lighting system is a leap into true, completely dynamic lighting from all sources. Muzzle flashes, light bulbs, lights on armor suits, explosions....everything casts rays of light, and in turn....shadows. Glorious, wonderful shadowing.

Although I think the next true leap in lighting will be consistent use of real-time global illumination like you have the option to turn on in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (it'll make pretty much any GPU cry for its mommy).

Looking Back to 2009 and WET

Nick writes: "WET was a pretty cool experimental project; a mixture of Stranglehold and Max Payne with a bullet-time mechanic and 70’s china-town movie style."

Blurs servers were the main issue but would love to see it return.

AZRoboto2472d ago

I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?

The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s

TheDCD2472d ago

Problem with sequels is that they aren't very likely. Activision dropped Blur like a bad habit, and Disney isn't doing games anymore. So I'll happily take the originals.

Remember Me
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Miss_Weeboo2472d ago

Alan Wake
Lost Odyssey
Demon Souls

TheDCD2471d ago

As much as I'd kill for a Demon's Souls remake, isn't likely. We'll probably get Bloodborne 2 instead.

PhoenixUp2472d ago

Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
