Yeah, it is now go to sleep loosey. Oh wait you can't you have $500 to pay for X1 and another $400 for PS4 and then the online fee plus the extra $10 on every game which basically plays by themselves. I can understand why you are loosing sleep over this. Oh and in 10 years you probably have to pay for the same outdated hardware (22 months by the time it launches) at least three times because of the RROD and YLOD. Poor Loosey.

Why use other pics, when those pics show PC with last gen lighting ?

You mean that other pics will magically change the crappy lighting in the PC pics above ?

The fact is that in the above pics, PC is like generations behind xbox 360 version in lighting

The bloom and absense of real light source and shadows on PC is laughable to say the least

The PS4 will beat a PC in ease of use and it will have games that normally don't come to pc but graphics is not one of things it can do better than a PC. 1000 dollar GPU is over kill all you need is a $300-500 card and make some sacrifices with some of the option on games.

because it proves the lighting in 360 is not "next gen" and the terrible graphical shortcuts they had to take in the console version.

First this guy hates on Sony for making "movie games." Now he's treating a tech demo from a developer of actual movie games as the second coming.

How so ? I was never ever proven wrong, i just posted the pics that show i am 100% right

PC lighting in the pics i posted looks like garbage and last gen comparing to 360 one and that is the only fact here

Of course some people may post dillusional comments that somehow i am wrong, but pics speak for themselves really

PC lighting in Witcher 2

LOL

Here is the deal, i posted pics and i expect comments on them, not other picsd

The very fact that people try to counter my pics with other ones, means that 360 DESTROYS PC graphics in them

So you get the picture, by posting other pics, you essentially admit 100% that my argument about my pics is 100% correct and undeniable, since noone does comment on them

Never played TW2 on 360 until last week. My god. Its waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay uglier than what i've seen on SW when played on a 42" in 720p. You look at wall textures and its like someone threw random colored paint everywhere. Its nice that CDPR could make it run on 360 but calling this or even comparing to the pc version is beyond Fanboy Goggles Mode ON. LE never played on a pc higher end than what's available for 400$ in BestBuy so don't judge him lol no wonder his 360's version of TW2 looks better than one running on a shitty onboard card that will have a hard time running games from 04.

Loosingends...I thought you had learned never to bring up TW2 again...you know the PC version got the updated lightning which the devs admitted was just created because they had become more adept at programming. Why are you hitting yourself, loosing?

i'm playing the TW2 right now and it's one of the nicest looking games I have on my PC (yes playing on max settings). That dude is just trolling. Honestly it could pass as a next gen game had they shown it at E3.

And those pics are not even showing the different lightning.

The PC version got the same lightning as the 360 in a free patch about 1 week after the release of the 360 version.

After LE found out about this, he literally stopped bringing TW2 to any discussion, if he was active in a thread, and you'd make mention of it, he would immediatly abandon the thread and never return, I have no idea why did he forgot about it and is now back on track on bragging about something that the PC already has.

No it didn't actually, the PC version got some lighting changes, especially in the third act, but not the same as the 360 version. Loosey is right that the 360 version has hdr improvements over the PC version, but that is it. The console version is still significantly downgraded compared to the pc version in nearly every way.

The PC version received the new lightning with a free patch, it's exactly the same as the one used in the 360, I have beaten the game several times and you can notice the improvements down from the start...with the vanilla lightning in PC, characters faces "glow" even in the dark, you can see diffuminated color around the edges. With the improved lightning this problem was corrected and now characters are properly illuminated instead of looking like a diffuminated color chalk.

No it didn't actually, the PC version got some lighting changes, especially in the third act, but not the same as the 360 version. Loosey is right that the 360 version has hdr improvements over the PC version, but that is it. The console version is still significantly downgraded compared to the pc version in nearly every way.

The PC version received the new lightning with a free patch, it's exactly the same as the one used in the 360, I have beaten the game several times and you can notice the improvements down from the start...with the vanilla lightning in PC, characters faces "glow" even in the dark, you can see diffuminated color around the edges. With the improved lightning this problem was corrected and now characters are properly illuminated instead of looking like a diffuminated color chalk.

No it doesn't. I literally just checked  in game 5 minutes ago in case there was a patch i missed.

I don't think we're playing the same game... The "facial glow" completely dissapeared for me, characters no longer stand out in the dark as if they had eaten 10000 fireflies.

That brightness you see is not from the lighting but is from the bloom.

You can just get rid of it if you do not like it.

Some pictures I took of The Witcher 2 a few months back.

And those pics are not even showing the different lightning.

The PC version got the same lightning as the 360 in a free patch about 1 week after the release of the 360 version.

In the pics i posted the difference is a generic light source with bloom without shadows on PC and a real next gen lighting source with shadows and proper HDR on 360

It is not "just HDR difference" at all

Unless you can show me the light on the wood in the back on PC and the shadows from that light on the charatcers, like on 360 pics

POINTS on 360:

Light falling in the wooden wall in the back

Characters have shadows and light on them, not just a bloom

I mean PC cant have such graphics in its dreams, while PS4 can do it unoptimized at launch (which means will look 10x better later)

So, what is the purpose of a 1000$ GPU (2500$-3000$ PC) when you get the whole of PS4 for 399$ and will last 8-10 years and also have JRPGs that PC does not (and all major PC games like Witcher 3)

I cant understand how one can pay 10x more to get 10x less

Exageration and Hyperbole make your words mean LESS to others. If you want people to listen to what you have to say, don't use them. If you are trying to troll, it is excellent bait. Carry on.

How so ? I was never ever proven wrong, i just posted the pics that show i am 100% right

PC lighting in the pics i posted looks like garbage and last gen comparing to 360 one and that is the only fact here

Of course some people may post dillusional comments that somehow i am wrong, but pics speak for themselves really

loosingENDS

Actually, users have consistently posted pictures in reply to yours. You shown the same few,  over and over, because no others show your points. STFU, LE, you have consistently been an idiot on this board.



PC lighting in Witcher 2

LOL

Here is the deal, i posted pics and i expect comments on them, not other picsd

The very fact that people try to counter my pics with other ones, means that 360 DESTROYS PC graphics in them

So you get the picture, by posting other pics, you essentially admit 100% that my argument about my pics is 100% correct and undeniable, since noone does comment on them

What kind of disease is the 360 suffering from that everyone is blue? You call that good lighting? :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

I like the new color scheme in this stage like 10 billion times more than the crappy yellow bloom on PC

But i never debated art and opinion, i just post about the technical side, that is clearly far ahead on 360 with real light and actual shadows and HDR, than just a bloom

Also notice how the 360 version couldn't even handle rendering Foltests's clothing correctly as a portion of it is white compared to the PC version which actually has the correct color.

Right.  But it's only a few area's of lighting, the 360 version still has some big deficiencies in lighting overall.  

I've played the 360 version extensively, and it's not great looking.  It looks good enough considering everything, but the level of texture filtering is disgusting, there's way too much pop up and slow LOD streaming (texture's don't load fast enough), the FXAA is the least they could have done, it's missing a nice chunk of vertical resolution and there's plenty of screen tear.
