Gears of war 3 looks so good. I think its proof that xbox 360 is about equal in power to ps3. To me its the most realistic game on consoles with all the blood and gore it has. Im sure theres gonna be better looking games on 360 than gears of war 3. The 360 isnt at any disadvantage in graphics power.gears ofw ar 3gears of war 3

The games you guys are slapping "realistic" on is really making me wonder if I live in the same world as you. :?

Seems like the first thing everyone notices is your poor choice of screenshots.

:lol: Real shots, but real bad shots. Game looks terrible. Gears 3 is just incredibly generic looking. Beefy men in metal, cliched dialog and vocals, big monsters, and the typical "this land has been torn apart look...blah. I'll stick to Halo and Killzone.

I don't really care about the technical side because I know Gears 3 destroys KZ3 when it comes to art direction. Epic has always been so good at that.

Will Gears 3 feature the ability to vault over obstacles without having to go into cover first? Stuff like that just makes the engine feel dated to me.

I just hated whenever ME2 went vertical on me not to mention narrow passageways lol...... "Ok, time to get out of cover and sprint forewards.. Oh, I entered cover on the other side instead.... Ok then, time to spri... Oh, cover again...."

ahaqhahaahahahahahahahahahaha both designers on both games worked on Jazz Jackrabbit.Idea's must've been thrown around both are extremely similar in so many ways it makes you look a bit silly both are a modernish take on futuristic setting both are of the same creed of design and all that its easy to see it aswell.

I agree but for the game to look this good this early is a very good sign.

So because they both worked on Jazz Jackrabbit it means both studios have the exact same art style and talent?

Varies. Especially if a game has good motion blur, scale, whatever. Still shots usually don't do a game justice.

So because they both worked on Jazz Jackrabbit it means both studios have the exact same art style and talent?

use a little logic as i said ideas of games like these MUST have been thrown around way back in those days it would explain the similar artystyles and some of the design choices aswell.Its not one of those ohhh it must be coincidence that both games are pretty similar in the artstyle.I mean cmon you got 2 guys designing similar games who worked on a project together.Its like tallica and megadeth without the feuds.

But lemming logic would never dictate that i guess.

But just because they worked on one project together doesn't mean they're talent and skills are exactly the same. The way you put it makes it illogical.

No, gears 3 looks exactly like gears 2, which looked like gears 1... Just face it, the 360 is maxed, it cant compete with ps3 exclusives which are getting better and better.

i appreciate the way you linked the killzone vid to a 720p version, but the left the gears one as the default 360p. nice try

Oh please, I simply copied the url from my address bar. assure you it wasnt my "master plan" to decieve you. :roll: Do you have that short of an attention span that you cannot change it for yourself?

As if I need to "trick" or "fool" somebody into thinking Killzone 3 is superior, anyone with eyes can see that.

read my edit. sts106mat
my bad lol. But in all fairness to gears 3, it does look like an improvement over gears 2. But IMO Killzone is starting to hang with the big boys when it comes to art direction. Also, the Killzone vid is off screen so the unnatral lighting could be the angle of the cam.

EDIT: I just reread my post and realize how fail that sounded. in fairness to KZ3, there are orange lights on the buildings.

I mean it looks good, but not that good. Personally I don't get what's so hard to accept. The PS3 has more power under the hood. Might be a slight advantage, but it's showing in the exclusives.

john carmack disagree's with you, and if you think gears 3 looks like gears one you need your eyes tested, then again, ain't you the guy that keeps saying Reach looks like halo 3?

You shouldn't blame the console for a developer's choice in engine. I really don't see how that's supposed to prove anything.

That is ridiculous, 360 is incapable of doing 500 FPS, even PS3 can only manage 120FPS :P. He also said test level, so it's not actually Gears of War 1.

Lems said the same thing 'bout Alan Wake before its release, remember the"huge world" and day and night cycle? It didn't have those and it didn't look better than Uncharted 2.

Minor note: it wasn't even true HD, although that doesn't make much difference.

And didn't gears 2 have bullshot screenshots before its release? I'm not saying Epic will do this twice, but its a possibility.

So please, before jumping to conclusions, lets just wait until the game comes out this time.

I think you got the hyperbole. I quoted a guy who said G3 looks like G1. In fact Gears3 engine is actually a huge improvement over the first two games.

and if i am picky, everything in that killzone vid looks has an un-natural light bouncing of it like all the surfaces are super-reflective.

the gears 3 one looks exactly like gears 2.

Go's into youtube lower the resolution of the video to match that of Gears 3 movie...

Oh god what give Killzone 3 still look better after lowering the resolution of the video,for got sake dude din't you have a better excuse,just downgrade the version video to match the one on gears 3 360p and you will see still the same Killzone 3 just look way better.

I think the fact that the graphics of the PS3 have continued to improve while those of the X360 have stayed relatively stagnant isn't due to hardware, but the fact that Sony has a lot of talented first and second parties who are good at pushing the hardware and willing to share programming tips with each other whereas MS's talent pool is smaller and more diffuse (its not clear the guys behind Crackdown 2 got tech tips from the guys behind Halo Reach or Alan Wake). I think Rage and Crysis both look amazing and I suspect those games will push the X360 harder than Gears 3. I also expect great things of Dead Space 2 (the original was excellent).

Actually the detail in character models and their textures is quite nice. The problem is in the lighting and the special effects which were always too flat in GeoW series.

dude, anybody with sight can see gears 3 looks far better than gears 2
