Halo Anniversary sub HD confirmed.

www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-halo-anniversary-demo-analysis

rather dissapointing to be honest for a game that is 10 years old. it should be running at 60fps and native 1080p but instead we get choppy 30 frames and 640p. 343 should be ashamed the game doesn't even look that good, in fact much worse than 360 launch titles and those games ran on only 1 core lol. although real-time engine change is something iv'e never seen before.

Halo has never run at 60 fps. The only game on a console that has run at 60 fps that I can think of is Call of DutyEliteM0nk3y

true, all the more emberrassing that it's sub hd

Halo has never run at 60 fps. The only game on a console that has run at 60 fps that I can think of is Call of DutyEliteM0nk3y

Forza Motorsport 3, Gran Turismo 5, a ton of sports games.

Since when is 30 fps choppy and 60 fps become the standard for all games?

Lol,what?

I've lost count of how many games have run on 60fps :S

Check your sources.

Most of the games that run at 60fps are sports games or racing games with an extremely controled camera. CoD hasn't had a major graphical upgrade in 4 years.

Nothing wrong with 30fps on the consoles. 99% of people can't tell the difference anyways.

Read bolded part. And I actually don't care or pay attention to what games are 60 FPS, if it's playable, then that's fine by me.

Come now, I agree that 30 fps is fine in most cases but your bolded comment just is'nt true at all, even if it's meant to be exaggerated.

99% please don't trow around numbers to make console gamers feel stupid, while it's true many casual players can't tell the difference there are many who can spot it. Sub HD in this game is sad, it should easily be 1080p, even Halo 3 should have been 1080. if Ragecan do graphics at that level at 60 frames then no excuses, just lazy coding.

That is completely false. I don't know anyone that couldn't tell the difference in frame rate.

navyguy21

come on people those 2 graphics engines use like 40% of 360's power, it should not be difficult to do real HD.

Most console games aren't 1080p and 60 FPS.

Hell is there any that isn't a downloadable game? :/

Have you seen the grpahics? This isn't just a 1:1 port of the graphical renderer, it's a whole new engine. They are also adding the ability to go back and see the original game with a click of a button (a really sweet feature).

Oh yeah. 8)

but seriously 30fps is just fine. But I wonder why they're using halo 3's resolution instead of halo reach's 1152x720 res.

30 fps isn't choppy >.>mrmusicman247

if you watch the video it dips below 30 frequently, although it's not the final product so we will see.

I expected 1080p, or atleast 720p.

It's not as if the game even looks good. Looks worse then COD.

that feature is cool, but honestly 360 launch titles look better imo, also no AA has been done on the original.

[QUOTE="GotNugz"]

[QUOTE="navyguy21"] Its a remake, not just a resolution upgrade like GOW collection. The game is running 2 engines AND sports new HD textures and lighting. Its not the same as the other remasters. People need to understand taht.navyguy21

come on people those 2 graphics engines use like 40% of 360's power, it should not be difficult to do real HD.

if games like Crysis 2, Killzone3, Uncharted, GOW, and Rage look 5x better than it is lazy code, or no motivation to put out a real hd game. i don't mind sub hd looking games as long as they look like the games i mentioned, and processing 3D it takes actual power to render. if you think running Halo anniversary is taxing on the system you should read up some more.

Games certainly need sincere help from motion blur below 30 fps. Stable framerates are also important for the fluidity of an experience of course.

Edit: While switching to the original graphics is a neat feature, I think it's a bit of a wasted effort.

The Monkey Island: SE games do this (although strictly in a cosmetic sense) and it is kinda cool. It's just not something you do much and hardly worth the dual engine occultism 343 is partaking in.

oh god, not another armchair developer, 30 FPs is fine for consoles and some of the best looking games including crysis 2 are sub HD.delta3074

but crysis 2 pushes the xbox near limits, Halo ann not so much.

The game looks fine, and it switched between the newer HD look and classic mode. What exactly is the problem, because there isn't a problem.

i dont have high standards for games so 30 frames is fine but no 720p that is odd

i still cant wait for this i want the maps, coop, and gametypes

That's pretty amusing, people hate on HD remasters because all they do is upscale to 1080p and make it 60FPS, yet the remake that's supposed to be better ends up sub HD and 30 FPS, and sometimes dips below that lol1stPlaceWinner

i give up, i guess people are satisfied with 640p. let me ask you a question what looks better Halo remake, or Perfect Dark Zero?

30fps is ok but subHD? Damn 343 :?

That's disappointing. I don't see what's so special with with the visuals that the game has to be sub-HD or limited to 30FPS. When a game like Gears of War is 720p and 30FPS and looks way better.

You're the one yelling lazy coding when you have never once programed graphics on the 360 once in your life. You have absolutely no idea the kind of constraints that are put on programmers developing on the consoles.

looking better doesn not excuse it being below 30fps in some parts and sub hd.

I know plenty of gamers that can tell the difference. But they, like myself, don't care.

As long as the frame rate is generally stable, there's no problem. A fun game is a fun game, regardless of the pixel-counting.
