Dont play Crysis, the other day I woke up, and started noticed jaggies everywhere on real life, I started to panic, but then I noticed that it was an effect from my curtain. Since then, every time I see a tree, or water, flashbacks of Crysis start to appear in my mind, and then I just go crazy, and start grabbing people by the neck...

[QUOTE="Riverwolf007"]

The difference between HD and upscaled 480p resolutions is so small yet once you see the difference it's hard to go back, especially when it comes to television.

My older DVR will only hold around 15 hours of HD but I still choose that over recording any in the old resolutions.

that is pathetic.

You can just forget classic gaming then... some of the best games are from the SNES/Genesis era and your eyes will burn because of their graphics. Appreciate something for its art and style, not just for its technical attributes.

paying 2000 dollars for a PC is lame.

Following the false thought that every computer must be $2000 to be considered good is lame. Try cutting half of that.

I did. You end up with a machine that can't even run Crysis on High. It's even more disappointing when you find this out AFTER you spent the money.

You could build a PC for less than 1K that could run Crysis on high with comperable frame rates.

The 360 run in 720p... below PC minimum recommended resolution for gaming...

I'm mostly a PC gamer and I love old school games, you don't know what a good game is.

I was playing the original Spyro (a PS1 game) on my 720p TV the other day, and using the PS2's component output too... if the jaggies had gotten any worse I would have mistaken them for climbable stairs on that tv, but they weren't nearly as noticeable when I hooked the PS2 up to an old CRT using compostie cables. You should probably do the same, if possible, for any PS2 games you have that don't support 480p and 16:9

you bought the wrong parts then

paying 2000$ for LED fans and a case that can perform light shows to the beats of Daft Punk with lasers and strobe lights attached to the case dont get you any extra frames per sec in crysis.

Being a PC and console gamer for my whole life I'm used to the stark contrast between high def resolutions on a monitor and low def resolutions on an SDTV. As long as the game is fun, it doesn't bother me.

Super Mario Galaxy looks really good. The more you get into it, the more you appreciate its beautiful, flashy visuals. I think the excellent use of colour plays a big part. They really used their imaginations to make the most of the Wii's capabilities too.

tubbyc

I agree. well i wouldnt want to see a real looking mario. Nintendo's first party characters are meant to look cartoonish. I can get back to playing first party games for the gc and wii even if i play my ps3. The first party games aim for its artstyle rather than realism. Kinda like how some ppl dont appreciate the artstyle for windwaker.

If i want realism, i will turn to my ps3.

However , starfox 64 and super mario 64 still impress the crap out of me :P

To me, Super Mario Galaxy destroys everything on the 360 in terms of graphics except Kameo and Viva Pinata. What can I say, I like color. :Pyellowandmushy

Well... whatever fits your bill. You'd be in the minority though.

To TC, that happened to me too. I don't bother with my PS2, GC, or N64 anymore. It's just not fun.

Good to hear he just wasted 2000 dollars. I wonder why most ppl prefer a console. 400-500 dollars out of the box, and superior games. Not a hard choice.

fanboyism at its best.

smg over gears of war or halo 3. come on. you say color- halo 3 has great color.



Fanboy damage control at its best.

Sure Halo 3 has okay colour, but nothing compared to SMG. and just because he prefers it. Doesn't mean you can claim hes wrong. its opinion.

I became a graphics lover. Ever since I got my 360 2 weeks ago I hate horrible graphics. I tried to play PS2 game it felt like my eyes were burning. I tried to play Mario Galaxy it couldn't play that either. The PS3 and 360 have destroyed me playing games with bad graphics. Suliman-Uchia

Mmm COLOR. What LCD HD TVs are good for!

Lucky for me, I've been gaming for so long on different screens and set ups that I don't care anymore. I'm still impressed by new games, but I can see the beauty in the old.

Nope, plain vanilla. I'm still using my old Antec SX1030 (though with a new TruePower Trio 550) that I've been building in for years.

That's a shame, if you can't enjoy a good game regardless of its texture resolution you are missing out really. I still play PS1 games from time to time (rarely but still) and it doesn't take to long to adjust and appreciate them. I enjoy going back a gen or two to remind me how far this gen has taken us ;).

I hear this all the time, and I still play on standard definition all the time.

My friend tried to get me to play a PS2 game called Escape from Colditz or something. The premise was fantastic, it was just so bad to look at, I mean it looked **ridiculous***, had to tell him to stop. Was funny to watch for 5 mins but became old pretty fast.

I find it funny how you can say such a thing when two or three years from now, 1440p is going to be the "new-HD" and the graphical capabilities of the next Xbox and Playstation are going to destroy the current consoles.

Real gamers don't play graphics, they play games they find fun.

Because there is something wrong with your 8800GT it doesn't mean it's the same for everyone. Many people including me aren't having any problems running Crysis on it so stop complaining or get it fixed. :roll:

You should play Crysis on my computer (1680x1050, High settings), and then try to play a GameBoy Advance game on my Nintendo DS. That would feel like a punishment! :D

yeah im playing mgs 1 on my ps3 and hdtv and saw how crappy it looked and I figured "well it is a ps1 game" but then i saw some pics on the internet and it looks much better than what my hdtv is projecting. Even when I put smoothing on it still looks like crap.

regardless the game has still been incredible

PS: are you using composite cables for your wii? this can be the reason why smg doesn't look good on your hdtv, get these cables and it will look great

BuckWheatJiggz

I actually thought MGS1 looked really good on my TV. Some games I have a problem playing due to the graphics, but MGS1 was fine.

NES games don't look that bad. 3D games look worse. For some reason the PS2 hurts my eyes on a HDTV but the Wii has nice grapics.
