An apology is due (Sorry Sony users)

Around a year to 6 months back, arguments where made. Many Sony users boasted Uncharted 4 was graphics king; while pc gamers such as myself argued Crysis 3 destroyed it.

Having seen the footage first hand, I must concede: a Crysis 3 comparison should not have been made.

Crysis Warhead would have been more comparable.

Have a nice day.

Isn't that from a cutscene

don't use compressed videos for graphics comparisons

I'm a Sony user and I didn't boast shit. The consoles are weak amd APU garbage. Don't expect them to beat PC games from even 2-3 years ago

Will never buy an AMD product ever again

its a let down no doubt..

What's funny is that the face of Nathan Drake there is evidently some sort of pre-baked effect like in most real time cutscenes. His in game model looks even worse.

Youtube screengrabs.

Lul.

Sony should just apologize ahead of time, every time.

compressed video vs off camera

the stoic delivery, lmao

For me graphics are nice, but it's all about the fun game play and story. So let me see... a boring FPS that only PC elitists care
about for graphics wars, or a fun action/adventure that looks to have graphics that can rival most games? Yep, Uncharted for
me.

nice job TC

comparing a pre alpha VS a finished product.

you know that most graphical enhancemets are done at the end of dev cycle ?

and compressed pics foh real ?

That's what I was thinking it didn't look as good but according to scotts it was because of some cinematic angle in the cut scene

Comparing a 2014 game to 2008 game.

From boasting to excuses. The depravity knows no end.

Well you can see sweat alpha channel effects which are probably going to be disabled during normal gameplay because it's a minor detail. Textures are probably changed, too.

UC4 looks so unimpressive. Seems like ND is done pushing graphics on Playstation.

LOL Uninspiredcup thread.

Umm, not really:

First Crysis pic is too blocky, face textures aren't smooth enough and the stubble is clearly low-res because it hardly actually looks like facial hair. If you actually look at the suit he's wearing, those textures are god-awful I mean honestly look at his left shoulder.

Second Crysis pic is too washed out, lots of distortion all over the screen. I don't know what the devs were thinking there. Too much blue, not enough vibrant colour. Gun is too dark, you can see very lazy lighting on the right side of the picture. Instead of realistic light pollution it looks like they coloured a side of the cave with yellow crayons.

Third Crysis pic is way too bright, reminiscent of all those "omg lens flare" shooters these days. Look at the foliage on the left, it's extremely flat and is honestly disappointing even for last gen standards. The trees aren't much better, they look very 2D. The rocky wall on the right lacks tesselation. The ground looks decent I'll admit that, but that's not that impressive when all the resources go into making a nice ground while everything else looks like crap.

So yeah man, if you want to apologize that you were wrong and rightfully place Uncharted 4 up on the graphics king pedestal then I'm totally ok with that :).

Excuses, excuses, excuses.

Being mature, I can admit when I am bestest; Sadly: appears Sony users would rather live in a magical land devoid of love.

UC4 looks much better than Crysis Warhead but it's definitely not graphics king, based on the gameplay shown today.

Better than living in a magical land devoid of games :P.

I'm swimming in AAA exclusives.

It looks like graphics king to me so far, I don't see anything coming out for consoles that looks as good as this (except for Batman Arkham Knight or The Witcher 3, but those are in the argument).

Talking about gameplay in a graphics thread.

Did you buy a Wii U?

No.

Okay, correction.

I WILL be swimming in AAA exclusives when these announced games come out :P.

I would get the Wii U if there was a price drop and a couple more great games though!

Being a pc gamer: I play intellectual titles such as Wasteland 2, that have more gameplay mechanics in the first 20 minutes than Uncharted has in 8 hours.

This is what happens when you're a pc gamer.

You play the same over-the-top strategy/rpg games all over again?

This looks like a post-apocalyptic starcraft. If clicking things gets you pumped, then that's your thing man. I'm all for cinematic experiences ;).

I like the idea of AMD APUs in their proper use. To bring decent capabilities to low end computers. I certainly never wanted then in consoles.

And I really assumed MS and Sony knew what they were doing putting a low clocked, low end AMD CPU in the consoles. On the one hand the physics in FM5 beat the crap out of the 360s FM4, on the other hand there are indications it's turning out to be a bottleneck like in GTAV.

I think that last gen was costly to MS with the RROD and costly to Sony with the expensive PS3 hardware and this gen they just threw something cheap together that benefits them more so than us. Because after the previous 8 year gen, this is not what I had in mind.

I'm not planning to get an AMD product unless they do something ground breaking, but not because I don't like them, but Intel impresses me with their CPUs and I like Nvidia graphics cards and their software.

@b4x: Because I know what matters.

Well yeah but Uncharted 4 has better artstyle and the colors look all purty./Nintendofanboyargument

the first thing to notice is that Drake has an actual expressive face with soft skin and everything while the guy from Crysis has a hard looking texture that makes him look like he suffers from a frozen face just like the characters on The Witcher 3.

/thread

I'm a PC gamer and has played all the Uncharted games to date and you are wrong.

I've also played Wasteland 2, the game is a confusing mess that requires determination to play. At character creation you are presented confusing character creation screen that requires you to look at forums to determine what to do, and the random encounters are not even random they are the same enemies and maps over and over again.

But I like both games for different reasons, Uncharted is an action adventure game with gun play... you are not going to get an RPG experience out of it obviously, but you are going to get a well done story and good scripted sequences and shoot people in the face while solving puzzles (although the puzzles could be better I must admit).

just ignore him. TC is full of shit

The models in Crysis aren't that great, Crysis and Crysis Warhead are quite dated by now and lack a lot of modern rendering going on in Uncharted 4.

gr8 b8 m8, i r8 8/8!

That game was quite shallow gameplay wise.

In the end Cryisis would still win.

Crysis looks pretty generic and uninspired, Uncharted has loads of personality and style, which is far more important.

Not sure if serious...

This made me laugh big time.

Jokes on you TC. This game will run at 60 fps with these glorious graphics at a crisp 720p cuz there's no difference between 720p/1080p. Try building a PC with that price that can run Dying Light at 4k resolution. Lol you can't gg no re. /s

Wow Uncharted looks awful, what happened?

e).

Agreed.

Just when you thought Uninspiredcups threads couldn't get any worse.

Pre-alpha footage screengrabbed from a highly compressed youtube video.

That's what happened.

You should apologize for creating such a terrible thread.

Go ahead and laugh. You think its funny, just like I think its funny as hell how people like to compare Mario Kart 8 with Infamous 2nd Son and say that Mario Kart looks better.

The U4 trailer was graphically underwhelming. The geometry is basic and the textures look washed out. I thought the decline in Image Quality was because ND is aiming for 1080 @ 60 FPS but I read on Eurogamer that the game is actually running at 30 FPS.

Anyways, in the first comparison pic, Drake looks a lot more realistic than Psycho because of the eyes. Psycho looks dead-eyed. And in the third comparison pic, it seems like the textures didn't load in time.
