In all honesty, 720p and 30 fps is not "gross." If anything, it's quite plenty and good enough. Especially if the framerate is consistent and smooth; those of you who are whining and begging on about "1080p @ 60 fps" are just being too demanding for this generation of games.

According to Quaz51, MGS4 will also be "non-HD" (665p), same resolution as MGO. This is detected based off the April Fool's gameplay footage, and some in-game screenshots.

With all due respect, sir, of COURSE you don't care that MGS4 is 665p. You don't even own an HDTV,

Even though it's BETA, it's still a high chance that 665p will be the resolution for the final game (which is less than 2 months away).

First of all, Uncharted isn't "photorealistic." Secondly, this gameplay video doesn't come close to Uncharted graphically. Let's be realistic here.

If EA takes over Take Two, then you can almost forget about a PC version of GTA4. Considering EA canceled Madden and NBA on the PC, I don't think they'd be too inclined to greenlight a PC port of GTA either.

They only appear to have fewer wrinkles on their faces because of the HDR and bloom effects slightly obscuring the facial wrinkles. Otherwise, the first set of screens show much more realistic looking faces. Much more natural, like real people almost. The newer character models look more like videogames.

Just take a look at the Otacon picture. He looks way more like a real human being than in the newer version.

You people are all simply looking at the fact that the newer screenshots are SHARPER. That's because the OLD screenshots are BLURRY and LOW QUALITY, which makes the old trailers look worse than they really did. This is at best a very flawed and biased comparison. Let's at least be OBJECTIVE now, and wait for a better quality screenshots comparison, and a better quality version of the new trailer.

What's wrong with having a little OBEJCTIVITY for once, instead of having a typical ...

No, they don't look better. They SEEM to look better at first, because the screencaps of the first trailers are very blurry and low quality. This is a really, really unfair comparison. Someone needs to take HIGH-DEF screencaps of the old trailers, to make a fair comparison.

Still, I'm a graphics whore who is really acute when it comes to picking out graphical fidelity, and to my eyes, this looks like a downgrade. Which does occur quite frequently in the videogame industry. Games ...

I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS GAME.

But, this seems more of a downgrade than an improvement, going by that picture. The character models and faces seem more artificial (fewer polygons), and the post-processing effects/HDR has been toned down, from what I can tell.

Also, it's VERY UNFAIR comparison, because the screencaps from the first trailers are very blurry, making the textures look worse than they really did.

There's also a LOT less polygonal a...

While moving?

While I'll agree with you on the placement/layout of the sticks, I actually think the Dualshock's analog sticks are better than the 360's, and better for precision aiming. This is because the sticks are taller set, and have less resistance, and generally have smoother travel, making it easier to make slight, precise aiming adjustments when you're sniping at someone in COD4, or other shooters.

It's ironic, I know, but the Dualshock's analog sticks feel and work better for shooters...

How the hell are you gonna play COD4 with this, which requires you to click the left analog stick (while moving) to sprint? You're just going to snap the "FPS Freek" off.

Doesn't look like it will work.

Eff them, and eff EA. There is no good to be got out of this merger. All that happens is less competition, especially in the sports industry; while EA gets an "infusion of talent" and arguably becomes a better company, the industry as a whole doesn't get any better and likely will only get worse.

Just because it benefits EA does not mean it benefits the industry and the gamers.

Stiff a loan shark, and you'll get a free trip there. In the Pacific Ocean.

Wow, that's freaky/disturbing. Like looking at a pic of a deformed freak in a way. Or someone who's gone way overboard with the plastic surgery.

For the very last time, THERE ARE NO MODS IN THE XB360 VERSION. If you would actually READ what Mark Rein is saying, and read the damn article, you'd realize that what he meant by "mods" is that they couldn't get Microsoft to allow the XB360 owners to freely install any mods they download, so they're doing a favor to the 360 fans by personally PORTING a COUPLE of the more popular mods themselves, by hand, and distributing them through XBL as downloadable add-ons (possibly for a pric...

Oh my god... you really are another dyslexic fellow who didn't the article, or even the summary. THERE IS NO TRUE MOD SUPPORT FOR THE XB360. READ THE ARTICLE.

Doubt it, because of copyright restrictions. Not unless Epic or Microsoft wanted to get sued.

No one knows the extent of the "mod support" in the 360 version, but I highly doubt it will be the same as the open architecture and system as the PS3 version, where anyone can download and install any mod they want. The mods have to be officially approved, sanctioned, and processed/reprogrammed by both Epic AND Microsoft's certification process before they can be distributed through XBL, which means you can say goodbye to playing with copyrighted assets/alternate game characters, o...
