Has fanboys gotten this stupid? Seriously this is the most stupid thing I have ever heardsomeone say. Ok companys been doing this for YEARS everyone has done it. Its called selling a product. When its in-game it says it in the bottem of the screen. This is buisness, companys and I mean everyone MS,sony and nintendo try to trick casual gamers by showing CG sometimes. Thats fact get over it and I'm guessing the TC is a freaking 4 year old.

OMG I'm actually agreeing with you :shock:

Hey hey dont get me wrong Im all for bashing sony but when people try to use ignorant and ridiculous statments like "teh cgi in teh commercials" as ownage I gotta call them out.

ignorant statement? whats ignorant about it?

the way you use the word is a way in which allows you to misinterpret the word as a synonym of stupidity, and is thus taken as an insult. Its a way in which morons like you can try to insult some1 but at the same time have a feeling that your not guility of anything and dont get in trouble

if you have something to say then say it. *****

It's in engine, but it is kind of like how the original MGS4 footage was. That actual game doesnt look that good(well it might for MGS4, they still have another 6 months but that is besides the point).

The original Halo3 at E3 has to be the biggest CGI lie yet. Gates: Here is exclusive in game footage of a game you might all know... X360 crowd goes crazy.

They looked like they built the CGI trailer up from the game engine. The smoke effect and water effects arent even close to being that good in the actual game.

The only thing pathetic or desperate in this thread or the fanboy haters. Not only is this market standard (ever seen the Xmen game commercials, don't think they had even 1 second of in game footage), nobody is innocent on this front.

The engine if def able to pull that off. and i would not be suprised if at least the PC version looks like that.

One of the first repleys talked about an CoD 4 commercial being CGI, ive looked all over youtube and could not find that commercial, and the commercial running here (i live in Denmark) is deff engine, all commercials looks exactly as how the game looks when im playing it. I play CoD 4 on pc with 16x ani 4x antial all maxed.

No it's not , it has even been explicitly stated by epic that it is in-engine.

The in game cinematics are just as detailed

wow i must have really hit some strings with the cows :lol:

5 min and its already5 pages.

damage control like crazy.

All of a sudden every single game commercial ever made has used cgi.

and even if that were the case, how does that make it ok?

its ok to lie about my product to simply get sales?

if you buy a 20 pound turkey online for thankgiving only to realize your only getting a 6 pound turkey then im sure you would not be happy

the cows would say "its ok every company does this. They are trying to get sales! the fact that your complaining is the dumbest thing i ever heard!"

Nobody said it was okay. The issue here is that it CLEARLY didn't bother you at all until you noticed Sony doing it. You seem to have no issue at all with all the times it has been done for 360 games. Only now that you think a Sony game has done it, do you feel outrage.

ANd then when EVERYONE, fanboy and not has pointed out both your mistake and hypocrisy, you call them all cows and write off their posts as "damage control"? Clearly the biggest fanboy here is you, sir.

how can you say that, theres lemmings in here calling you a retard too. you're just ignoring the facts. nobody said every game advertises with CGI. but just about everybody has said game companies have been doing it for years.

look at teh CGIssssssssssss!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wimuv5rtzmw

you're a pretty pethetic fanboy when you have to start bashing for little thing like this. and then modding the guy for a post that wasn't bad in any way??? does anybody know if there a way to do a rebuttal for him or something if he gets banned??BTW microsoft has also done this for many commercials. GRAW and gears are proof of that. hell even pc games do it and pc games look fantastic already.

Please... get your head out your bums and realize that advertising is about making the first impression a sticking one. Don't say that companies like Sony are the ONLY one, this has been going around for over a decade. When you advertise, you want to show the best of your product, make a remark/statement that sticks in one's head/ impress/etc in any way to keep that commercial marketing in your head so it may otherwise lead to a possible sale.

Yep, Sony's so pathetic. They did that CGI trick with the first footage for Killzone 2, Heavenly Sword, Ratchet, and now Uncharted. There's more games that did that CGI trick commercials with, but those games I already forgotten about.

too bad that uncharted and hs and r+c all have amazing graphics. r+c is compared to pixar movies. uncharted has, or at least almost has, the best console graphics.

They never say "In-game footage"

Also, note that Heavenly Sword did the same, as did BioShock, Halo 3, Gears of War....see where I am going?

Did you happen to see that they used gameplay as well? Uncharted is hands down the best looking game this generation, so it can get away with graphics hype from commercials. Plus, if it turns profit for Sony and Naughty Dog, it would be stupid for them not to use CG in the commericals.

Yeah, it's stupid as hell. They're also getting all multi plats to be advertised as sony only which I think is a stupid thing to do by game developers.

Most games now though are having the "In game footage" put in.

Wait.... Im totally confused now. I just finished Drakes Fortune... and there is no CG used in it. LOL you Lemmings and your ignorance. Go to Gametrailers.com and watch the review, thats gameplay... not CG.. DURRRRRR. Yes, Cutscenes in the game are done using the ingame engine. Thanks for your time, NEXT!
