There's only so much time to improve until it's supposed spring release. And if it takes them as long to perfect as killzone did, we'll be using natal on xbox1080.
@ 8.1, I have SEEN natal in action, I was there. I know why they decided to use the jumpsuits... The video explains it all...
"Did anybody watch e3 and see that they infact did not need the jumpsuits to use Natal"
I was there in person, and I saw the glitching (ever see the bottom of an avatar's foot? bam!... ignore the fact that the avatar is all twisted and contorted out of shape and the fact that i'm facing backwards and it's still facing forwards), half second of lag (even have pictures to prove it, though we've all seen it by now), I saw why they decided to use jumpsuits on that show.
The release date can't come sooner than late 2010 without a miracle. We aren't even past the phase where people of all colors can play natal with no lag or no need for jumpsuits. Natal has a looong way to go.
Just a laugh, let's all dress up in the same color to demo a game! It'll be funny! everyone will get a good laugh. of course it isn't to prevent any on show glitches because the tech is too early in development to show off to the public! Of course not. No, sir, that's not lag you are seeing! It's just a joke. See! hahahahahhaha, everyone laugh, see the applause sign? we thought we'd get a kick out of seeing you struggle to control your character, so we put in a half second lag on screen just ...
No, it doesn't show the accuracy, but to be fair there is still a lot of time left for them to improve on that. However, I wouldn't have showed it so soon with so many obvious flaws.
PSEye can already do facial and voice recognition (natal uses the same principal, a 2d camera and voice recognition software).
"Be honest if this was on PS3 you will be singing its praises... "
No, i would never sing praises for something that would only serve to get me killed even faster. If I'm playing a shooter, and there's a half second lag from the time I move until my character moves, that's enough to get you killed. Factor in internet bandwidth lag,...
The on stage demos of natal were laggy (half second lag between your movement vs. when you see it on screen), and now since we're hearing reports of natal having trouble seeing dark skin we see MS forcing people to wear orange jumpsuits. natal is vaporware until these issues can be worked out, sorry to burst your bubble ms fanboys, but for now this tech is broken. hope they can get it ironed out by spring, but i know it'll end up getting delayed.
I know over 21 million people who WON'T boycott if you bring the game to their system...
@ 3, "I even wonder if this person walked out when they announced Halo Reach.". No, we were all there during it. We all saw the extremely vague all CG trailer that only showed a planet with a bunch of explosions going off. We all know that given the fact that nothing was said about the game, it could turn out to be a 2d tower defense game for all we know. That's why we expressed disappointment with the lack of a true Halo sequel (or spinoff) that looked good enough to keep up with t...
Though we didn't get to play it, the lag was rather apparent just by seeing the demonstration. couple that with the reports of Milo being fake, and this tech seems to be more vaporware than anything.
bjornbear, actually it does matter. more pixels being natively rendered equals a sharper image. a sharper image equals being able to see clearly farther into the distance, and looking down the track to anticipate every single subtle turn and curve coming your way is very important. Sure, a racer is playable at less than 480p, but when racing online and such, the clearer the overall image the better for being able to accurately judge the track ahead of you. I'd rather be able to see a curve a ...
no problem. i knew i smelled feces of the bovine variety when i saw that... so i made it my first order of business yesterday to clear this up. i'm glad i was able to be of assistance.
for those of you who say you can't tell the difference between 720p and 1080p, that's total crap. I am a videographer by trade (in addition to running psinsider.com), and I can tell you that the difference is very apparent even on smaller screens. You are literally getting over twice the pixel count on screen. To say you can't tell the difference between 1080p and 720p is not much different than saying you can't tell the difference between 480p and 720p. The difference is there and it is clea...
As I said, I have posted proof that this article is BS.
Forza 3 Does NOT Run at 1080p + Gameplay Video
http://n4g.com/events_e3200...
Be sure to check out today's edition, we'll be giving away Uncharted 2 beta codes at the end of the podcast.
No, you won't. I can confirm this game does not run natively at 1080p. It is upscaled. I will post a video interview tomorrow for proof.
Neither next gen console is capable of running a game with advanced visuals at 1080p60. The closest either has come is Wipeout HD so far, but even it used a dynamic resolution system that would lower the res for frames that required too much processing to render. God of War 3 is rumored to be 1080p, but only 30fps.
The game definitely has a god of war style to it. it'll be interesting to see what they do, if anything, to distinguish this from gow.
I'm at e3 right now, spoke to developer. The game is upscaled to 1080p. Not native. End of story.
Very entertaining read. Couldn't be more true.
