So how about HD for Rev, any news ?

The first one is oblivian for 360, the second is twilight princess for gamecube, and the thrid is resident evil 4 for gamecube. I dont see much difference. Noting that the last two are running on regular SD. The Revl promised us better graphics than this, so im happy regardless. I also do find the last 2 pictures better looking, even while the resident evil 4 picture is really low quality cause its a jpeg.

it's funny to compare the FIRST Xbox 360 games with the LAST GC games... oh yes, the graphics from the FIRST GC games are exactly the same to the LAST GC games, the same happens to PS2 and Xbox... [sarcasm] spd39th

[QUOTE="fiercedeity901"]lets see who would buy it,hmmm...lets see who would be in their right minds to pass up a deal of a $150 console, tons of great games including old schools, and new ways to play them, and a system to own all FPS genre type games,hmmm...yep i guess your right i'd pass all this up just for a better looking game anyday i mean afterall it is about looks and how high the price is right, i mean you just can't get a good game without it's sytem being $600, hmmm....now that you metion it i guess no one will buy it SARCASM^^^^^^^nasos_333_basic

Under 300$ means 150$. SINCE WHEN ? By the way, do you have a pc. You would know then that setting any game on 640x480 res look like crap compaing to 1024x768 one. So do we want more crap looking BLURRY games ? NO WAY.

EDIT: By the way, a good HDTV 32'' costs a bit more than 1000$, xbox 360 can show HD on PC screens too, and HDTV will be in every house in some years. Anyway, i am a gamer, i want the best, who cares if some gamers do not have HDTV, i have and would like to see amazing graphics not blurry stuff as with GC and xbox, is that clear ? I can't support a console that will give blurry graphics in this generation, i want choice to enable high res ones too. By the way you do realise xbox 360 plays on normal tv's too, right ?

The REV is aimed at the mass market, not those who can afford a HDTV for 1000 bucks and a console for 400+ bucks and then games that are 10bucks more expensive just for having HD support.

There are only about 1-5% of the house holds in the world that have HD(not counting afrika, asia(exept japan) and south america) if you count the whole world its much less then 1%.

And when Xbox 360 is played on a statndard TV it wont look better then REV, it even may look worse since REV is built for 480p and has the power to look awesome on the res and the xbox 360 is both 720p and 1080i and thats why it needs more power. If 360 was 480p only then it wont have/need more power then the REV.

And BTW you do realise that REV playes on HDTVs, PC monitors and standard TVs too, right?

Look at the original metroid prime game, meh, no use...

I hooked up my n64 to my hd plasma, looks awsome. Same with my gamedcube. 360 probably looks better but still. I still enjoy 8bit games. The rev will be 2-4 times as more powerful, so does it really matter? the 360 will be more powerful but it cant show it cause it uses all of its power to support HD. Just as in last gen, and same as in current/next gen the rev will probably do the most with the least.

And Metroid Prime witch is the second best looking game this gen. The first beeing RE4 and not counting LoZ:TP since its not out yet

I admit it does look better... but is it worth paying $50-60 more on the console and $5 more on every game?

The Revolution is'nt going down the HD road because it's got somthing better than HD. It's like Iwata said " when you see the graphics you will say wow".nintencat

i agree with that

Here is the real deal. First on is 1024x700 and the other in 640x380 upscaled. See the blurryness now ? Textures loose all detail too, grass seems less individual.

Yes, but you compare the graphical difference of 1 game to another. But the topic is explaining HD. And HD only allows you to achieve a better visual clarity. It's a given that games from one time period to another will have progression. But the only benefit that HD is gonna give you is a clearer vision.Reptile711

400$ for what xbox360 offers is CHEAP as hell. Even if games are 25$ more expensive than pc ones, still you would have to get 100 games to reach the 2500$ for a pc able to run those games today properly. 100 games are really many.

As for the few HDTV's, anyone with a pc could as well hook xbox up on the screen, and enjoy amazing clarity, so that makes the possible HDTV/pc screen owners a huge percent. By the way, whatever the case, even if you have SD only or HD or PC screen, xbox supports it all. While Rev for users with HDTV's and pc screens will be like connecting xbox 1 to them, which would make anyone with a HDTV SAD

I don't see what the argument is about.

The XBox360's HD games are definetly going to look better then any SD games, and those who claim they can't tell the difference are either in denial or need to get thier eyes checked. Go play a game like Timesplitters 2, run it in 4 player split-screen, and have a look at how blurry each of those screens are, if you were running it in HD, each screen would be much clearer. As for fullscreen games, it's harder to see it for yourself because unless you've seen a game running in HD, you probably wouldn't realise your missing anything. However, I play both console and PC games, and even older PC games can look better then console games due to being a higher res.

I just thought of something, if you have an N64 or PS1, take it out and play it, notice how blury it looks? It didn't seem that blurry when you first got it, but after playing on the GC and getting used to those graphics, the last generation now look very blurry. You'll find the same thing will happen this comming gen, at least for people or buy a PS3 or 360, they'll get used to the higher res and find games on older systems will look blurry.

lol, it would be nice to get HD, but most of us don't have HD tv's anyway, only thing I'll be in denial about is if we don't get a cool online mode like XBoxLive. However, if we get a cool online mode and it's free, it won't be us in denial :D

Even if some do not have HDTV

1. They get cheaper all the time, so one could be affordable in near future

2. I would like to have the option if i buy a HDTV later, to be able to play all my games in HD

By the way, the bigger the tv, the worst SD shows, so all those that spends much money on huge HDTV's will see terrible blurry images from Rev, i think that will hurt when comparing to standard 720p of xbox 360 and ps3

who cares about graphics? i sure as hell dont. i mean, would you want a game with the most realistic, best graphics ever, OR a game that is ACTUALLY good, a game that you will enjoy.

That's what i say.

Nintendo already said you can hook up Revolution to a computer monitor.

http://cube.ign.com/articles/522/522559p2.html

Q: Will Revolution hook up to a television?

A: Yes. It will also be able to interface with a computer monitor. In June 2004 Nintendo engineer Genyo Takeda said: "You'll be able to play [Revolution] not just by linking up to a television but to a computer monitor as well."

For me, computer monitor >>>>>>>> HDTV anytime for the resolutions. Anyway, I'm not a graphic whore. I really don't care about HD. In Canada, HD won't be standard on the Revolution era.

Graphics will be great no doubt about them. As long the world, characters, etc have good drawings, I'll be in heaven. It's the resolution that may be weak not the graphics.
