[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"]Fable is an amazing looking game with a great deal of style, but its hardly as good as many of the people here are making it out to be. You would think fable fans [I myself am one] would realize this hype is working against them.Pro_wrestler

Indeed, remeber what happen last time:) Though it was still one of the more memorable games last gen.

[QUOTE="Pro_wrestler"]How something looks != graphics. Fable's universe is more beautiful. THE END, get over it and go hump your PC parts.WARxSnake

go hump your xbox you defend so valiantly.

goes both ways.

I already have...how is that an insult?

FYI I defend the PC on occasions, I guess your oil black fanboy goggles are to jaded to notice that.

check your goggles as well because i didnt really go fanboy on anything in this thread, i just thought your comments were ironic. or is it natural for a fanboy to treat anybody else like one?

Fable 2 has:

- dynamic real time shadows from each tree leaf on everything CHECK

- amazing shadows on grass, full gras coverage CHECK

- amazingly detailed 120.000 leaves trees CHECK

- amazing light beams, volumetric effects that move as the sun moves CHECK

- amazing detail around, ground full of grass, flowers, rocks, trees CHECK

- great textures CHECK

- amazing HDR CHECK

- amazing lighting CHECK

- day/night cycles that make everyhting look different at each time of day, and make shadows and light beams move and filter throught the foliage etc CHECK

Are you people SURE Fable 2 is nothing like Far Cry 2 and Crysis ? I see a HOST of the main totally next gen cutting edge things that make those games amazing, fully implemented in Fable 2, all shown in the latest forest pic, posted a few days back !!!!

Just different styles, for different games for different targets. Not my style, not my target, but I'm sure many will enjoy it as I enjoy other kinds of RPG's

As I recall the first Fable wasn't neccessarily the most realistic-looking either. It had a kind of cartoony look actually, with oversized heads and hands. I just enjoyed the RPG elements and the combat, which was fun in its own way. Plus it was tons of fun to go around with flies buzzing over your head and horns sprouting out of your hair :twisted:. I've long since given up comparing games based on graphics. I pretty much expect graphics to improve, on average, and really only look at gameplay. Only if the graphics are atrocious do I start looking at it, but if not, OK graphics are fine by me if the gameplay is good.

Im no fable fanboy, but Fables graphics are more pleasant, and happy like i really cant describe it. while killzone trys to go for the realsim feel. So i dont think you can really compare the two, if you want to compare killzone compare it with GeOW they both go for the realism look.

It looks better than that hideous pic of Killzone 2, FarCry 2 also isn't all its being hyped to be and is laughable that its graphics are being compared to crysis.

Comapring Fable 2 to Killzone 2 was just a joke the TC made IMO, the only thing you can compare this kind of detail vast world, lighting, and shadows in Fable 2 forest with, is Crysis and Far Cry 2, but FC2 feels empty comparing TBH

It's amazing how a revolutionary game comes around like Fable 2 (If it DOES live up to the hype) and all you people care about are the technical side of the graphics.

How pathetic.

sexy_chimp

indeed, if it delivers on its immersion (features) it could well be one of the best games to date, along with spore when it comes out

stop bringing fable2 to the same level as crysis technically. its really annoying that even after 2 days of pretty much the whole forum community disproving you, you still try to point it out every chance you get.

fable 2 is NOT at the same technical level as Crysis, DEAL with it.

he is a fanboy, u can't stop him and them. Its like; hey can u stop a cow from hyping resistance 2 and uncharted as the best looking games and mgs4 as game of the year? no, but u can tell it will be a good game and thats that, u don't have to care what a fanboy think really. A prime example of people agreeing is with gears of war, it looks amazing, yes? yeah, but is it the best, no, but u can agree it looks good...

Only Fable 2 has some huge forests, with 10x the detail, trees etc RE5 has, volumetric lightign that is 10x more next gen than RE5 lighting, a fully dynamic day night cycle and shadows, light beams moving along etc

Do not compare RE5 graphics to Fable 2, there is no contest, RE5 are just great, Fable 2 are the best that could possibly be

it is not that it looks better, but as other people have said, it is a differnt style of art. also fable 2 is a much bigger game than some of the ones you are comparing it to, which means that f2 has to compress there data to fit, simple put f2 is big, and it takes a lot of memory to store all the new things in the game that the graphics might not be perfect.

Now, i'm going to step out of my own personal bubble here, and say superb graphics != a superb game.

Less than great graphics != a less than great game.

Whilst I generally prefer to have the best of both worlds (take MGS4 for instance, awesome graphics, and really fun gameplay)

I also think that Fable 2 looks really fun. And honestly, i'd rather play a fun game/RPG (I single out RPG's cause there isn't enough, and its one of my favorite genres) with decent graphics (like fable 2) rather than a average/slightly above average game/FPS (i single out FPS's cause they are way overdone) with superb graphics (like Crysis)|

Take LBP for instance. It doesn't have mind-bending photo-realistic graphics (though IMO It does look REALLY good for what it is), but it just looks FUN. thats all. FUN. Just like Fable 2.
