We all know that Cows have been giving Lemmings a hard time with the recently released "downgraded" screenshots of Mass Effect. So Lemmings, do you think Heavenly Sword has been downgraded? Opinions please.

Here is a comparison of the 2005 Heavenly Sword Trailer and the footage that has been shown in 2007.

Context is important for this comparison. The 2005 trailer was made from gameplay footage, but of course including effects that they hoped to achieve.

The footage that has been shown in 2007 is actually from a 2006 September/November build. There is reason to believe that the game looks even better now as claimed by the developers themselves and from the recent screenshot they revealed.

stop worrying about how Heavely Sword will look. It'll look fine. The question is how well it'll play. A screenshot will never tell us that. Just wait and see.

I'm pretty sure it was gameplay with some CGI effects thrown in? Not sure. I personally think the gfx were upgraded since then.

Cool, looks really close to the target footage (supasses it in some cases).  For the first two pics the target beats the graphics for PS3 gameplay, but for the rest of them PS3 ingame graphics look better.  Very cool.

Its obvious that was CGI. Anyway, call me crazy but in some shots I actually prefer the in game graphics. The in game graphics in the first picture for example look far more realistic in some areas of her face imo then the CGI pick.

The old screenshots kind of remind me of Lara Croft, but in the newer screenshots she looks a lot more sexier.

Which in any case is ownage in itself because what you're basically saying a PS3 game's ingame graphics > that of CGI concept footage.  Sweet

Umm while I do agree that some things look better in terms of a realistic point like I said a few posts back, its obvious that some things don't in the technical area. There is a reason of why in the CGI pick you actually see the shadow of the characters hair in accordance with its movement in the characters body, or some light effects that completely destroy the in game footage. This is only a drop in the bucket of what the in game will not have in accordance to what the CGI movie showed. Both of those are not even comparable, much like the Motorstorm situation.

To be fair, the most recent screenshots were from a 2006 September/November build. It probably looks even better now.

Thats definitely true. I am in fact just taking stuff out of my behind. "This is only a drop in the bucket of what the in game will not have in accordance to what the CGI movie showed" Don't even consider those words, the game could in fact in the long run achieve better things than what the CGI has shown. My point was mostly directed at the current footage.

Keep in mind the face was cgi in that trailer.  Other than the face, I'd say it the same, if not improved.  They need to work on the number of enemies on screen still.

Downgrade threads are a prime example of weak sauce. I'm not sure which one is better. Screenshots mean nearly zippo if you haven't played the game.

Wow, the 2007 screenshots look a lot better.  The only difference I see is that back in 2005, she looked more Asian than she does now.

The game is looking better as times goes on, as is the PS3.  That's my point.  If you're talking about keeping things in people's pants, you must be enjoying a bit too much porno.  Office porno, methinks.

Did you honestly just tell me that? And with Acts 2:38 in your sig?... Lets be adult here. I was making a joke. If your point was that the game is looking better as times goes on- then say that, instead of sounding like a total fanboy.

The 2005 footage looks better from an animation point,but that's not too say the 2007 pics don't look awesome.

It will be the best looking game on the ps3 yet,and may also be the first ps3 game that shows it can do more thanthe 360,but we'll have to wait and see

It's official. You HAVE to be a fakeboy. Nobody with any gray matter between their ears would post like this. And keeping it on topic, these screenshot comparisons are cool, but it's hard judge the game (or the progression of said game) with them.
