Ninja Gaiden Sigma -- Not THAT graphically impressive ..

I was just watching the latest video of NG:S.  I  have to say, when you consider that this game is jumping from last gen. console to a completely next generation system which has specs that destroy the xbox, it gets me thinking that this game should be looking a helluva lot better.  It's a beautiful game, I see that there is more detail in the environments such as swaying bushes and falling leaves.  I also see that the animation is lightning smooth.  But it was a beautiful game on the xbox too.  Take a beautiful game on a last gen, move it to ps3 and we should be getting blown away! This thing should have the horsepower for the developers to lavish it graphically (which was their purpose) to the hilt!  There should be more bumpmapping and especially more particle effects happening.  I understand Team Ninja likes to make clean looking games, but c'mon.  For a system that is supposed to be at least 10 x more powerful, this game doesn't even look twice as good.

I would have said the same until, I watched a graphical comparison by gamevideos.com yesterday. It improved a lot over the XBox versionBenderUnit22

Don't try to judge the graphics to early. The games is still quite a ways off.

Yh the videos really don't make the photos seem as good.

It doesn't look jumps ahead of the xbox version imo

Hate to break the news but the PS3 IS NOT that much more powerful than the 360. Infact the 360's GPU is leaps and bounds ahead of the Nvidia modified 7800gtx version the PS3 has. Other than that the rest of your post was fine but you really should try NOT to sound like a fanboy.

Eh, I'm more happy about getting the game on a console that I own, than whether or not the game rivals Motorstorm and Oblivion.

Besides, it seems to run at 60FPS in 1080p, and looks fine enough on my end.

I'd rather have it 60FPS and extremely fluid, but without the greatest graphics, than have it look amazing with the most spastic framerate ever.

Awwwwwww F@!k The Xbox fans are spilling out into the PS3 forums now.

From a technical aspect, Ninja Gaiden Sigma looks about as sharp as we figure games can get. Every texture in the game has been reworked for the PlayStation 3, and a number of other effects have been added to spice things up, like self-shadowing and so forth. Some creatures now shine with ooze, while others emit clouds of something as they scurry about the battlefield. Tecmo said that it has just recently managed to implement full 1080p support into the game, and at a full 60fps to boot. Yes, this is one slick-looking title.
