Fable 2 is really VASTLY IMPRESSIVE both visually and in gameplay !!!

I hope you're paid to do things like this.ithilgore2006

lol

TC: give it up allready. there is no need to convince EVERYONE on GS. You cant. I know this will be a great game fable1(with lost chapters) was allready a great title back then. how can Fable2 be bad if it features everything fable1 had + the features you listed here? some people might not like it, youll have to live with that fact.

Until YOU provide some 'real in game graphics' from Fable 2 - which is impossible at this stage, mind you - you'll continue to come off as nothing but a biased, ignorant troll. NYHoustonman

Well it is NOT my fault you are uninformed, those pics ARE in game graphics, chech out GDC videos !!!! hahahaha, you ar so OWNED now

BTW Oblivion is 2 generations behind Fable 2 graphics, the gam looks liek a joke comparing IMO, it does not ven have real shadows, verything is predefined, and you have to LOAD to get in a house, Morrowiind did it that way you know, VERY next gen indeed !!! hahahaha

It trees are horrible looking too, they are not lit or shadowed like in Fable 2, and there are no light beams or real shadows from trees

Well, it is OBVIOUS a 1st gen 360 game would look 2 generations behind Fable 2 anyway

I have never seen a screenshot of Crysis that isn't "In-game" The game doesn't have a single CGI movie in it, unless you count the opening video which is a mix of CGI with in-engine stuff, FACE IT! Crysis looks easily twice as good as ANY game the 360 will EVER produce.catlin_czirr

Sorry that Fable 2 forest pics looks EVERY BIT as good as Cryis best pics easilly, in shadows, grass, trees, lighting, and the only thing now shown here is how big the scale is, but it IS big

[QUOTE="saolin323"]The detail, lighting and shadows are hot technically though, Crysis hot actually

BTW in 9 months the game WILL look much much better, even than that

catlin_czirr

NO, i am NOT saying it is better overall, just that Fable 2 engine does as good lighitng, shadows and near detail in grass/trees, and some big levels with all those

But due to ram limitations it can't do a whole isle, i agree to that, and doesnot do physics as good

BTW this is NOT debatable, since the Fable 2 forest pic i provide PROVES 100% what i say

You know, I actually agree with saolin for the most part when it comes to graphics. Fable 2 does look very impressive.

Gameplay is a different matter.

Wow, Oblivion does look better than Fable 2mismajor99

[QUOTE="mismajor99"]Wow, Oblivion does look better than Fable 2zero9167

I don't know. They're preety close, save for better art direction and lighting in Fable2.

In-game media shown so far from Fable have beeb very underwhelming and even those are touched up media

No, they are NOT touched up media, there are videos that those pics came from you know, from GDC, stop spreading lies

Oblivion is old gen now, just get over it, ANYONE can see that, it does not even has proper tree shadows, they are fake, same for buildings

Fable 2 will not load to get in a house you know, has REAL shadows from each tree leaf, that move as the sun does, and has light beams filtered through trees, something ONLY Crysis does so far, no other game

Then it trees are real lit, with proper shadows on them, making them absolutly GENRATIONS ahead of Oblivion fak lit and shadowed trees

But why do you think a 1st gen 360 game, that was a port from PC on top, would be anything important in visuals ?

No, they are NOT touched up media, there are videos that those pics came from you know, from GDC, stop spreading liessaolin323

You're just in denial. Some Fable2 pics have zero jaggies, there's no way F2 will run with 16XFSAA on 360. they propably caught them in high res on devkit and then downscaled

I've said Fable2 has better lighting, so I don't know what's your problem. It is sad though that the only thing that truly puts Fable2 above the, as you called "old gen game" is lighting

no, you are 100% wrong, the pics do have jaggies, and are 100% in game, they are just negligible, but they are there

BTW the GDC video proves the game has nobig jaggies as well TBH, why did you expect pics to have jaggies all of the sudden ? I mean if the REAL TIME playable game has no jaggies, you did not expect them to add jaggies in the pics, just for you to know they are real, right ???

And yes, lighting IS a najor thing, THE most important thing in a next gen looking title IMO, and shaders, it does shaders better than Oblivion, check the ground, it is not flat like Oblivion

How about homes that have no loading ? Isn't that a difference to you ? Fable 2 goes well above Oblivion in ever thing imaginable TBH, not just lighting/shaodws

BTW saying that Fable 2 forest pic is not in game is CRAZY, it is clearly in game, and i have confirmation it is in game by the devleopers in the official forum, if you want the link here

So, here is proof we have a while until those graphics are near final

The forest in the demo was still in-progress as regards thickness of foliage in areas.
We did not add more so we could ensure smoothness for the demo (though we could have with no issues easily I reckon).
The forest in the screenshot is in-game (no filters or cheating), and again unfinished. I know because I took the screenshot.
It is a different region to the GDC region.
In fact, it looks much better on a tv, as the shots were pretty low res.

HAPPY NOW ? !!!! Straight from the devleper's mouth, now you can stop spreading rumors and bashing the game

no, you are 100% wrong, the pics do have jaggies, and are 100% in game, they are just negligible, but they are there

you mean the cam recorded video? Please...even PS2 games don't have jaggies when filmed like those. There is vast diffrence in ammount of jaggies between screens. So either they are touched up, or they downraged the game alread

Oh...actualy I believe the forest pic is real, because it the most jaggy Fable2 pic we've seen so far

An sorry, but Fable2 looks medicore at best graphicaly

those are Xbox1 level of textures and foliage. It's just sad

Lighting looks great, but unfortunately it seems that to achieve it Lionhead had to sacrifice graphical quality of everthing else

Did it take you long to find the worst pics of an unfinished game ?

I bet i can find 10x worst looking Crysis pics than those, why do you still think the game will look like those pics everywhere, and not like the stunning pics i posted before ???

Biased much ?

I do not see anything last gen, or "sacrificed" in the below pics TBH

BTW in case you did not know, when in combat (the pics you posted) there is a filter applied hat makes lighting different, and removes color a bit, see GDC video, that is why textures look flat there, but in the pics i posted outside battle, it is a different story, but i take itt you did not know

Did it take you long to find the worst pics of an unfinished game ?

Does the combat mode also makes all the textures low-res, the foliage weak, the draw-distance short and turns everything to low poly count? Damn.... what crazy combat effects Lionhead has included :D

Sorry, the low res textures are just in your mind, check the house roof, the rock behind it, and the ground, all look totally 3D and stunning, compare that to the FLAT gorunds in Oblivion now, and the FLAT textures in houses

Yep...all in my mind:

:D :D :D

Fable2 textures look decent only when they are far away, get close and they look like crap, altough that's how all low-res textures in any game behave to be honest

I see nothing low res in these textures, sorry

so you wanted a screenshot of crysis with a hud to prove its in-game?? wel here you go

The 53 AAA reviews of Fable 1 say hi

Listen I really liked the first Fable the game had a lot of pre-release hype and ended up being a disappointment to a lot of people, to me it was just a great overall game. The graphics were excellent, the gameplay was solid and the story was engaging I would have given it an 8.5.

Now we move on to Fable 2. Saolin alone has hyped Fable 2 more than Killzone 2, Starcraft 2, God of War 3, Gears of War 1&2, Metal Gear Solid 4, Halo 3, Ninja Gaiden 2, Crysis, Half Life 2, hell even the original Fable. I mean I've nver seen a fanboy so enthused about a game. If Gamespot were to change its scale back just to give Fable a 9.9 the game would still be a disappointment to Saolin. The kid obviously doesn't even know about in game visuals because hes busy saying that Fable 2 looks better than Crysis and Uncharted in its current state. Please leave.............now......... lmao

Uncharted ?? hahahahahaha, why do you even have Uncharted in the same sentence as Fable 2 and Crysis ? Is that a joke or something ?

Art style? - The same old generic rubbish with a fantastic forest and city that is stolen from Kingdom heart 2? Pass

Gameplay? - First one didnt have anything spectacular in gameplay. Pass

Overall? Hyped FF killer, and failed miserably. Pass

Watch this game score AA only

This is sad. I hope this developer finds you and asks you to stop ruining their game. Fable 2 is gonna suck by itself. It doesn't need you to make it any worse for them or their shareholders.MadExponent

I doubt it, considering the first one got very good reviews and was one of the biggest selling Xbox games.

FFXIII > Fable 2.

It isnt even a contest.

I doubt it, considering the first one got very good reviews and was one of the biggest selling Xbox games.

I played the first one on PC with superior graphics, controls, and audio to the Xbox version and it sucked so bad I was actually angry for having wasted my time and money. I'm sorry to disagree with the reviewers, but there should never have been a sequel to that steaming pile. For saolin to continue to hype Fable 2 just makes me question his motives. He must be getting paid by the dev or he is the dev. Either way IMO he is annoying people who know better.
