The amazing thing is that this is their first attempt at creating an engine for the PS3 and they admitted to only be using a third to half of the PS3's true power (I believe he meant in terms of optimization for the Cell architecture).
There's really no reason now for developers to make subpar PS3 games when both a first party (Naughty Dog) and third party (Insomniac) are able to produce these kind of games nonstop.
Can you believe that the PS3 is hard to develop for and it still hasn't turned one year old yet?
NaughtyDog must be doin some serious black magic to pull this off on the PS3, at least that is what some of the more bitter developers who shall remain nameless were saying. I wonder what that fat guy from Valve thinks when he sees this game, judging from how angry he was toward the PS3, I am sure he will have a heart attack from shock and the years of buildup in his arteries.
1st year 360 standout (GOW)
Less than 1 year PS3 standouts Uncharted R&C More to come.
See, its all about consistent performance. I had a Sega Genesis, Sega CD and a 32X, after that (though there were some great games), I lost faith in Sega. Sony came out with a new system, and after much debate I got a PS1 and never looked back. For me, I have been a gamer for a long time, and there isn't much that I have not experienced gaming wise, for me, Sony is the only company that takes me back to my gaming roots of staying up late, and anticipating getting home to play some more. Not to mention the system has nice visuals too.
I believe our culture of instant gratification is to blame for this console war, there are a lot of sour grapes when it comes to the debate between PS3 and 360. I think the 360 has done a decent job thus far, but I really can't give the system credit just yet. Its main competitor is about to hit its stride, and the real test is going to be what will change once the PS3 increasingly becomes the lead platform. It will be interesting to watch, but if I were a 360 bot, I would choose my battles very carefully as there is a very good chance you might end up putting your foot in your mouth later, you know who you are.
Heavenly Sword was a standout (to some), Motorstorm, even insomniacs other title Resistance. Those got a few 10s, Resistance being the best selling title.
I did leave out a few games, but my point was that even taking out all the games that weren't "Critically" received by the various industry "professionals", the PS3 still is delivering way more than the 360 did at the same time in its life cycle. Gears was the 360's beginning a year after its release, not even a year after the PS3's release we are seeing quality FIRST party products, and I believe 1st party innovation is what will make the PS3 excel.
FU(K!N HELL! less than a year only usin 30% of the cell and weve already got a game that bests anything on the xbox graphics wise.im seriously excited bout the next year!
WOW seriously this looks ALOT better than what i've seen lately...damn Naugty Dog..did you discover something about the PS3..that others haven't...this game will be S-I-C-K...bring on the demo...
Graphics are Awesome! but u cant call a game good until it releases. Don know how the story will pan out. Remember what happened to Lair. Nobody played it and everybody speculated the game would rock based sorely on graphics. And look what happened when it was released! I have not played it personally( Don own any next gen console!!!!) but the overall review from all the boards were in the negative. So wait with a bated breath for the game to come out and see what feedback it will receive...
Ist enough with the whole look at how Lair turned out I own that game it's quite good...the motion controls didn't kill the game as reviews would have you believe ..it has a steep learning curve yes but once you get the hang of it fun..except for the 180 turns...and the targeting system...everything else is alright for the most part.
NOW the reason why this game won't suck and the story will be great ..it's developed by "Naughty Dog'..check there track record never disappointed
LOL at #8 Epic happend to be further along with their game than other devs. The 360 launched one year earily not one year late [wink wink]. This game looks alright dam good for a PS3 game though(despite its rubbish art and weak effects, water is cool reminds me of that 360 launch title Tomb Raiders Legends water effects).
Its not the meh graphics you should be worrying about its the last generation gameplay. The gameplay is a joke the bad guys AI is 5 th generation and so is the Lara Croft! "RAIL SYSTEM" mechanics. Dude running around like a Chicken with its head cut off; ON RAILS!!!. Clearly the devs bit off more than they can chew the game isn't well thought out and would score average if it were for the 360.
Don't be suprized when this game gets good score's with the gameplay causing gripes amoung reviewers.
Hey POG point on the doll where the bad PS3 touched you?
Anyway, I love how you come into a PS3 topic and already are trying to dish your BS. Man, do they pay you for this? As for looking like Tomb Raider, man, you must have 0/0 vision, give me any game on the 360 that looks that good, oh wait...there is none ^^
Oh and btw, what does earily mean? ^^ A Ear with lies? O.o
OH MAN DID YOU GET TO GO TO NAUGHTY DOGS STUDIOS TO PLAY THE GAME AND TELL US ALL OF THIS OH WOW, THATS JUST LIKE SO TOTALLY COOL, YOUVE ACTUALLY PLAYED THE GAME AND KNOW ALL OF THIS INFORMATION Hahahaha, "Clearly" you just made yourself look so stupid by saying how the game will be without even touching it.
I don't see what all the fuss is about? this game does not look as good as Crysis no way; the water looks on par with Bioshock but the enviroments look like so many other games e.g. Halo 3 and just does not look realistic, maybe this is just art direction; I will say this though, the character look and animation is top notch, hopefully this is not just a tomb raider rip off.
first halo is crap graphic wise the enviroments are not destroyable while this game has deforrestation aka crysis and second bioshock doesnot has reflex in the water so uncharted water is a level above .BTw the normal enemies in bioshock look like crap. U are retarded this game looks better than anything u have seen in the 2 years old console so go back to watch ur crappy mass effect palstic effects or what is halo3 to laggy today hahahahah what a fuk the best multiplayer ever has more lag than the worst ones wow is awsome not to deal with lag and free with mi ps3 P.S: compare this two images one from a first gen ps3 title and other from ur crappy mass effect
@ Zor, i was talking abt Lair. I don know how the game plays but majority of the review sites gave it a poor score. am giving a picture in general. Some ppl like it and some dont.
@ Idonttakesides
Naughty dog does have a good track record. But that does NOT automatically make this game to be good. As what i have said, we have to wait for the game to release, only then we can come to any conclusion.
@Power of Green
Rubbish art and Weak effects!! How did you come to that conclusion! Care to tell me what was the "rubbish art and weak effects" in this game!!
When 360 games stop looking like last gen plastic, give me a call.
If you want to talk fx, Crysis full up is the best there is fullstop.
But this game, so early in ps3's life, something different, and its going to be a franchise, is miles above any 360 games, animations alone are the best i've seen on any console.
Even 1up were mightly impressed and the section of shooting while the lady is driving, their jaw dropped many times:) They could not understand how there was no pop up,lol.
looks 1000x better then E3 cant wait till it comes out which is i think november 19th
...look better then all the other ones I've seen.These must be from the finished version.Never thought it could look better then it already did.
great pics. im happy I decided to buy it =)
photos look so good
o miss one great detail. look at this picture high details. specially the guys reflection on the water. is the last pic.
