Too smooth and clean to be in-game. If it is in-game, I doubt the player can actually walk all the way down to those individual buildings and enjoy scenery like you would in Oblivion.

I played kotor 1 and kotor 2. Even though I saved the galaxy from doom in the first game, the 2nd game started off with the Sith controlling everything. With that in mind, it's possible for ME2 to be designed in a way like kotor 2, without really needing the player to have played ME1 to be able to enjoy the game.

Or maybe this is misinterpretation, like that one time when the media interviewed Kojima about MGS4, and they translated it as him saying the PS3 wasn't powerful enough for MGS4 and he was disappointed. But what he really meant was that he had wildly high expectations of the PS3 but in the end, there weren't enough resources for him to create a masterpiece of his vision.

Just woke up, but I believe that site has new HD pictures (actual HD, not camera phone resolution) not from the video, and a 151 mb HD video someone linked to megaupload.

I wonder if DR2 will freeze on me just like how the first game froze during the first cutscene. Capcom you hear me!?

When a company comes to you to look at the amazing product you're developing and they want it on their system, they'll give you incentives to produce for them. Incentives may be advertising, cheaper development tools, paying for publishing costs. In the end of the day, it's still your product to toy around with.

When a company comes and tells you they want to buy your product to release on their system, they're purchasing your IP. After that, you either work for that company...

Lol Stoya. She just has to appear at the door of a pure gaming nerd and they'll ask "Sorry, who are you?"

But! If she cosplayed as Tyrande Whisperwind and appeared at their door, they'll probably cream their pants at first sight.

Well I believe CryEngine 3 got nitpicked to death because 360 owners were saying that it trumps the poor PS3 owners and their KZ2, so obviously the PS3 owners will defend their system.

And then it got nitpicked further when people were watching the videos and noticed in some scenes the PS3 version being far more detailed than the 360 version, as well as the frame rate issues the 360 version particularly during lightning and particle effects.

All in all, who started...

I think when you see a game that's pretty much a "port", people expect it to be at most the same deal all over again with just retouches here and there. I think arguing about NGS2 being sub-hd is kinda moot since this game is obviously a port, and not an entirely "new engine" like some sites were claiming.

Fixing the camera issue is a good thing. The blood? Hmm... though I think a couple articles back said the amount of gore was censored for media. And o...

I don't think there was a framerate problem in the video. It seemed to me it was more of that "shaky screen" effect everytime his cyclops was taking a smack on the skellies. That effect is used on other games too.

OMG this game is so cool. If you're a WoW player, you'll definitely like HKO. Even Wowinsider.com decided to skip WoW and become HKOinsider.com on April 1st last year. That's how much they loved it!

Nah, this engine tells us it's possible to have Uncharted graphics on the 360. I have both systems and I think Uncharted blows away GeOW 1 & 2's graphics away. Uncharted is just so much more detailed and the animation is pretty wicked, but the art/camera direction of GeoW is top notch. Same goes for KZ2. I think KZ2's art direction is pretty darn good and gives a good sense to us gamers what the team envisioned as the nitty gritty all-hell-broken-loose sci-fi world.

But t...

Definitely. I'm sure they can both perform on par with each other. The 360 definitely needs a better framerate. Some animation on both versions are choppy. If all goes well, looks like a game with this engine would be good to pick up for either 360 or PS3.

It could be developed w/ the PS3 in mind. I recall maybe a year ago there was an article of them hiring people with PS3 developing experience.

Is it me or is the 360 having framerate problems w/ the lightning and particle effects, particularly the beginning of the video with the light orbs and the segment with the grenade launching smoke effects?

Edit: That PS3 scene with the foglamps on the wall and the funky sharp light it casts seems to be code they'll have to fix.

Another edit: Oh wow and the mountain scene in the PS3 version is more detailed and sharper than the 360 one. More grass too! Some scene...

Ahh N-gigabit router. Maybe that's why. I just have an old linksys g router (w/ DD-wrt) and QoS works on and off, but not good enough to give me lag-free transcoding with the # of devices connected to the router in my house. Anyway thanks and bubbles to you morgan.

Pandora works on the PS3?

Oh and Morgan, you use the PS3 media server and you like it right? Is your PS3 wired to your computer or is it wireless? I've used the software for a couple months now and it lags on video files that have encoded subtitles. I'm not sure if it's because I don't have the settings right on the app or if I need to configure some other settings on my router. Btw I'm on wireless. Any tips?
