Sheesh, another blind fanboy! How many of them are there?
Halo Reach is easily among the very best looking games to ever appear on a console.
Judging by that video, it surpasses Uncharted 1 and Uncharted 2.
Yeah, I found a lot of baked shadows in Killzone 2 (i.e. not generated real-time, but rather "painted on"). What you said about the textures is also spot on. If you actually analyze the textures you will find that a majority of them are fairly low res. But the art direction combined with a healthy slathering of particle and post processing effects helps to create a cohesive, great looking game.
The Halo Reach video was very impressive and is likely doing many similar...
Halo ODST was not crap. It was worth every cent I paid for it.
Pot calling kettle black...
You sound pretty deluded yourself. Killzone 2 "several notches above" Halo Reach? Uncharted 2 even above that? What absurd statements. Some of you really are blinded by your loyalty to the PS3. I love my PS3, but I also love my 360 and I don't have any strong loyalty to bias me one way or another. If you can't see that Halo Reach is AT LEAST on par with the best looking games on both consoles then you are simply denying the obvious.
I agree that we won't know anything for absolute sure until we see actual gameplay, but that doesn't stop us hard core gamers from coming to some tentative conclusions. I agree with lowcarb that IF gameplay turns out to be fairly close to this cinematic then Halo Reach will surpass both Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2. I have been playing games since their inception and I have a strong technical background, so I have a very good grasp of what constitutes "good graphics". Halo Reach s...
Those are some great screen shots from Uncharted 2 (ah the memories), but they still don't look better than Halo Reach. Are you sure you know how to judge graphics?
That makes no sense. Come out with a new system when an upcoming game on the system surpasses all the competitor's games?
Absurd. All you proved here is that you know absolutely nothing about game graphics or the technology that powers them.
Halo Reach's lighting model alone is more accurate and advanced than anything I have seen in a console game before.
"PS3 games have done circles around this trailer"? Ha ha ha PS3 fanatics are always good for a laugh.
Halo Reach looks better than any console game I have every seen. I own Gears 1, Gears 2, Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2. Halo Reach is more impressive than any of them.
You have no idea how much I love Uncharted 2, but I have to agree that this looks even better to me.
YOu say that, Bjornbear, but I don't agree. I was stunned at how fantastic it looked and I think it looks better than Killzone 2.
I think you need to get your eyes checked, IronChef. Halo Reach does indeed look better than Killzone 2.
I wasn't disappointed by Halo ODST, so I seriously doubt I will be disappointed by Halo Reach.
You want to know which shooter ended up disappointing me? Resistance 2.
No they don't. Killzone 2 is a really nice looking game, but this surpasses it.
Ultimately there is no reason to argue it. Halo Reach is an exceptional looking game and you are either going to acknowledge that fact or deny it because it clashes with you sense of allegiance to a particular console.
Blind, blind fanboy. *shakes head*
You are full of crap. 'nough said.
Reach looks amazing.
I'll say it again, if the video is anything to go by it already looks better than Uncharted and Uncharted 2.
