God of War 3 has better than 2x AA

"Off the top of my head features added since E3 include: anti-aliasing on the CPU – looks much better then the 2x at E3; motion-blur that works for the camera, object and inner object; lens flare/god ray tech; reflection and refraction; improved character lighting; and improved texture streaming – the E3 demo was problematic and had blurry textures due to streaming not texture authoring. That has been fixed." http://www.playstationuniversity.com/improvements-to-gowiii-since-demo-explained-2774/ 4x AA (At least) + HDR + Object Based Motion Blur at 30-60 FPS (forgot the exact number or average. I heard it would be around 60 fps most of the time, but I may be wrong). Lots of work offloaded to Cell. That's what you get when it's properly utilized. More than makes up for the shortcomings of RSX.

Nice. AA can make all the difference with certain games.

GRAPHICS KING CONFIRMED!!! 8X AAAA!!! :P

Very impressive the 4x AA... even if it is 720.

The demo looked pretty good if you realized it was a 1 year old beta build.

Thats good to know. The demo looked pretty bad compared to games like Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2...Heck I'd even say Heavy Rain if it weren't for all its graphical glitches. Speakin of that, anyone else notice the bug in the GOW 3 demo when Kratos smashed the guys head against the wall...right before you ride the cyclops, and right after you shoot down helios?

I thot PS3 cant handel 4XMSAA thats why they use QSAA in Killzone/Uncharted ( ops forgot thers a SUPER DUPER CHIP TOP SECRET INSIDE THE PS3 ) for god sakes the game looks good dont make it look bad by talking inorance

I think GoW3 is going to get AAAAE. Kratos will definitely going to pull this off.DEATH775

Boy, if a game doesn't measure up in certain technical aspects, people jump all over it.

I do think the way old E3 2009 GOW 3 demo that folks are playing now looked pretty good, but I knew it was old.

I don't know if GOW will be able to dethrone Killzone 2 or Uncharted 2 for Console Graphics Kings, but I'm looking forward to playing it nonetheless.:P

I surpose AA can make up for low resolution and poor polygon count.

:D

Uh there are different AA types better than 2xAA but inferior to 4xAA. For example Quincunx simulates the anti-aliasing level of 4x at 2xQAA.Brownesque

Yeah it definitely wouldn't be equivalent to 4xMSAA. If you looked at stills the edges would probably look cleaner than 4xMSAA, but like I said in motion you're still going to see artificacts that you wouldn't with MSAA.

There's a lot of discussion here if you're interested.

The demo looked amazing you people are way too picky. The final product will look even betterbigboss5ak

some of these people walk outside and complain that there aren't high enough polygon counts on the blades of grass in their yard and that the lighting is all wrong, they can tell by the way the shadows move....

I don't think that's true..From what I played of the God Of War III demo, it looks to be a jagfest.

This is interesting. I swear, just the other week cows went on and on about how insignificant and unnoticeable features such as anti-aliasing were.

Along comes a PS3 game that boasts 4xAA (which, undeniably, is more than welcome at resolutions of 720p and less), and suddenly it makes all the difference in the world. :)

Anyway, I feel like I'm in cow territory right now, so I should probably lay low and say that God of War 3 will be one hell of a game. Because it will.

Its on a scale thats much larger then most games, lets take a look at pc titles that are linear such as Dragon Age Orgins and the Wticher. How do they hold up? Not very well.

My god, not this again. It's a linear, confined, button masher, that's why it looks good.Revan_911

Um,

no.

It looks good because developers took their time and specific care in making the the game look good. And because of the PS3's unrivaled console power, they were able to do it.

I have to graduate from "Playstation University" so that I can tell how much anti-aliasing a game has.

I didn't even bring up graphics king or anything about how good the graphics of GOW3 are. I just said no matter how good the anti-aliasing on the PC is, they will still never be able to play the amazing game that is God of War 3.

[QUOTE="Sollet"][QUOTE="Revan_911"] What Scale? It takes more than a couple of scripted quick time events to impress me. Probably if they put more than 10 enemies in the screen the game will fall apart. And the Witcher is on much larger scale, if you played it you would know.Revan_911

can anyone explain me what is AA, 2XAA AND 4XAA?

:D. The graphic card is basiclay a carbon copy of 7900 GT, what a joke. The PS3 is in no way better than the 360.Revan_911

XBOX 360 GPU has a few extra features than the RSX, Xenos is slightly better. However, the PS3 has the CELL PROCESSOR which can graphics process and graphics render by itself, making it SIGNIFICANTLY more powerful than the Xenos. See the difference between slightly and significantly? In a rudamentary kind of explaination, the PS3 has nearly 2 GPU's....of course PS3 is more powerful

When the XBOX 360 delivers a game that is the pinnacle of console graphics technology, like it did back in 2006, that the PS3 keep on producing over and over and over, let me know.

As of now, there's no leg to be stood upon regarding XBOX 360.

that's not even covering the BluRay or Harddrive in every PS3, which obviously furthers the gap.

Oh wow, it's Revan_911 again, never falting in his dangerously efficient damage control.

I still don't have it quite figured out though, so would you mind informing me for later reference: Are you a Hermit or a Lemming? Or an interbreed of both?
