I loved that game as well, I reviewed it and gave it a 9.0. Those Heavy Rain screens look great BTW, I want that game more than any other PS3 game in 2010, even more than God of War 3 and GT5.

I have been looking at some new pictures and am in awe these look like something on PC in high settings.

I think we may have found a new graphic king in the graphics console PS3

heres the first picture

Er...this screen doesn't look that good. And what's with the tree sticking into the table? :lol:

Really? Wow. :lol: Shows how much I know about PS3 games. Replace 'console' with 'game' and you've got the reason why MAG's devs would do it. Even if the game doesn't match the target renders, if it weren't for the target renders, the game wouldn't have had as much an impact at first and wouldn't be on the radar.

*goes off to watch MAG trailer for first time*

AnnoyedDragon

Here you go.

Anyway logging for the night.

Wow, the difference is huge!

I think there should be a rule for debut trailers. If the trailer is not for a game in a well-established franchise not in the T/FPS genre by a well-established developer e.g Blizzard, for the love of God, don't do a target render. :x

Good night to you.

Its an Adventure game, it had damn well better look that good.

However, Crysis looks just as good and better, plus it has more interactivity and a larger scale. Thus, Crysis retains its jewel and RAM encrusted crown.

Its too bad the game is a interactive movie.

simslifer

it plays like Indigo Prophecy and if that was a movie it would not have gotten an 8.4.

geez I don't know why lemmings can't just accept defeat and stop damage control.

Im not a lemming, i just don't see what the big deal about this game is. Every single video i've seen just shows off a bunch of cutscenes and a bunch of QTEs. The Gameplay is nearly non existent.

You cant move around freely with the joystic and interact with literally everything using all the face buttons in a movie;)

But of course, most lemmings know good and well that it is a game with full gameplay controls just like any other game, but they believe what they WANT.

I am not a Lemming. The game is a bunch of QTEs. It is unimpressive. I never said it looked like a bad game. I'd play it for the story.

from what i have heard about this game, i dont think that it is for me nor for most other gamers out there, it just strikes me as boring. The concept is interesting and some of the story ideas are new and fresh but it just seems like a movie where you walk around to the next place where you just hit the prompted button and the game does all the work for you

BlancoBX

Bingo. I want to have more control and actually enjoy playing a game instead of just torturing myself by sitting through an interactive movie with atrocious voice acting. Yes, it is looking nice visually, though. However, the game itself simply does not appeal to me at all based on what I have seen. Nor does the footage we have seen look quite as sharp as the obviously touched up screens floating around.

No, Heavy Rain is not the "Graphics King," especially given that it's on such a small scale.

Well, considering war/conflicts are often dirty, Psycho's pores are filled with dirt and grime from battle, making his features a bit more defined (detracting from the very clean look of the characters in Heavy Rain). Also, since when has "realism," an artistic merit, been categorized into "Graphics King?" Crysis is more advanced graphically. That's not subjective, especially when you consider that it is on a much larger scale.

Now take a look at the older Heavy Rain screens. It's definitely an improvement and it does seem to be a good looking game, but what can you expect from a game that is on such a limited scale? I would hope they were able to get it looking at least as good as they have it in the newer screenshots.

If this keeps the gameplay of Indigo Prophecy with the gfx of the last trailer This will be my game of 2010. The gfx were downgraded without a doubt, but the player models are still VERY good especially for a console. If you believe the facial graphics then you are easily fooled or a blind fanboy. The texture resolution on those faces would make the game unplayable on the ps3 if it had that much detail on more than 2-3 characters.

BTW this could also be a hint that the game may come to the PC. Those textures would be very possible on a PC with the texture settings on max.

IMO, the Heavy Rain model there looks WAY closer to photorealistic than the Crysis one. That being said, I'm aware that the Crysis shot is in-game and the Heavy Rain one is more than likely just wishful thinking. I never understand why people pick the pics they do for Crysis character models. I've seen shots people DON'T normally use that look better. Either way, I never saw character models as being a reason for Crysis' praise. I thought it was more of a textures / environments / physics kind of thing. Personally, I think if it lived up to that standard Heavy Rain would have better character models.

I enjoyed the game stop being delusional. I accept that MGSIV got a ten, but thats not gonna change my opinion. I actually have a PS3 so i can make opinions cause ive played the games on the system. You on the otherhand dont even have a 360, and view all of its games as trash. Defintion of a massive fanboy.

No, there are definitely more cows. Cows are also the most annoying faction, because literally every single exclusive HAS to be the best SOMETHING. Best graphics, best multiplayer, best story, best sound, best SOMETHING.

cows will continue to do so, just like they crowned Uncharted 2 as the next graphics king, and KZ2 as the current king................why does system wars let them bully the system like that?? Im sure im not the only person who thinks RE5/Gears 2 looks on par with it, and i actually PLAY the game quite a bit, i actually think RE5 should be leader, although graphics are subjective

though HR does look great, I still have doubts about the game itself (story/gameplay)... Same thing goes to Alan Wake...

These are 2 visually stunning titles which though interested in them, have doubts about the story & gameplay aspects which imo are far more important than visuals..

But it is true some Sony fanboys should take a break and stop crowining every single PS3 exclusive as the next 'Graphics King', that only fuels PS3 haters to hhmm well Hate even more PS3 & its exclusives..

How does predicting what a game is like before release constructive in anyway! Besides, he's talking about graphics, and from those screens, the game looks very appetising.

I think it was fairly obvious that that picture isn't in-game. I mean, for starters it has the 'clay' test model right beside it. This is just the devs showing off some of their models, which ALWAYS look much better before being imported into the actual engine itself. Anyway, I'm not impressed by Heavy Rain in the slightest. I dislike QTE in general, I think they are a cheap way to try and make people feel like they are influencing a game, and an entire game based around them just sounds awful. Graphically, it doesn't look very good. I mean, models are good, but not great. Some of the enviroments look great, I'll admit that. But the interaction between the characters and everything else looks jerky, unrealistic and ugly. Of course, the game isn't finished yet, so we can't really judge right now, but i have no faith in the developer fixing these issues before launch.

The game sure does look the business, by the time it's released it may well be the next graphics king. I just hope it plays as well as it looks, I know the story is gonna be amazing for sure.

I honestly don't see that. Not from THAT Crysis pic, anyway.

Go back to the first or second page, someone posted a picture of Prophet which looked much better than the Heavy Rain pic. The Psycho picture though is harder to compare, since it's from Crysis Warhead which was slightly more stylised, and so harder to compare to Heavy Rain which is attempting to look realistic.
