Graphical comparison: The Getaway PS3 looks better than GTA IV (56k warning)

[QUOTE="donalbane"]Getaway shots = proof of concept, CGI hokum. GTA shots = running in engine. Conclusion? You have no idea what the Getaway looks like.fuzzysquash

Although I do agree The Getaway looks better, I don't think the screenshots do GTA justice; it looked a lot better in motion.-The-G-Man-

for the lemroids that keep saying it was CGI...

"Eurogamer: So The Getaway was one of the things that was running on real hardware?

Phil Harrison: Yeah, good example - I mean, you could see actually, the way that those cameras worked. That zoom-in camera was done in real-time to capture the kind of video-like footage that we had."

I think we're missing the point. The Getaway always had better graphics than GTA, it's gameplay that GTA excelled in.-voodoo_child-

there is no denying that the Getaway LOOKS miles better than GTA.. However, the Getaway has never been a game with a lot of replay value, good gameplay or a strong story (especially with black monday) in my honest opinion

and for people who are saying that the Getaway is pre-rendered: at GDC there was some footage where they showed a controllable character's animations (although may not be main character). They had about four of the same guy, all in different walking cycles. Then, they all fell into different running cycles to show off the transition between walking animations and running. The character was then multiplied until there were hundreds of them in Piccadily circus, all in different stages of a walking animation. The characters, as well as the backround, looked exactly like the footage shown at e3. I would find a link, but i'm sure if you really want to prove me wrong you can search it yourself and point out WHY it is definatly CGI.

I personally prefer the cartoon style graphics of GTA over the Getaway. I think if GTA was photo realistic it would take away from its fun factor and humor, which is part of what makes it so much better than many of its clones.

That is what I was thinking LOL. Tell you one thing...Sony Fanboy 

Wow... Some of you have been living in caves haven't you?

Those Getaway Screens are as real. The game always looked realistic. And they have video demonstrations of the game around the web.

Well I thought the story of The Getaway was very good. It was like a movie that you could play, but i certainly agree that Black monday blew chunks... But hey just oppinions :)

I know, I was kind of disappointed with the GTA4 graphics myself.  Throughout the trailer I had alot of, "a month for this?" moments.  I hope they clean it up, I'll still buy it though.TheSystemLord1

What is there to clean? Those graphics are fantastic. Some of you guys just set your hopes sky high and owned yourselves for it.

Yo Fuzzy, is your point that PS3 exlusives are going to look better than multiplatform titles, the same way that games made for the Xbox looked better than games made for the Xbox AND PS2 last gen? Because that cetainly seems to be the case with titles like Motorstorm, which does look slightly better than a lot of the Xbox 360 titles out there. donalbane

those getaway shots are from e3 o5

 every think sony showed at e3 o5 was CGI..........gta looks better coz its propper in game shots 

:? Actually...(and this goes for all the other people posting ignorant comments) it was realtime with a controllable camera.  Don't  make me own you fools.  But the point is still the same.   It might not look like that during game intensive applications. It's just the engine.

Now I don't know if this game will look like this in gameplay, I do know that this is running off PS3 hardware.  Much like the earliy screen of mass effect we saw before they showed actuall gameplay screens....

yep. 

I loved the Getaway's myself, thought they were awesome games.Sketchbaz

E3 05 screens are automatically nullOemenia

one is multiplat and one is exclusive?

I don't trust The Getaway developer with the last games they tried to pass off FMV screens off as in-game and got called out by gamesites for trying it. This gen it would be less obvious if they tried it again.

lolz?? The Getaway??? Is that the best the cow can do by hyping this flop to GTA?? Cows are getting desperate I see..xyoojguy

maybe it never occured to you but GTA games never relied on high end graphics.. yet 9.6 GTA SA, these graphics are next gen enough for me, just because the getaway has slightly better graphics doesn't mean it's going to be any better than GTA4.UndyingVayne
