Its funny how fanboys bash Left 4 Dead's graphics (click here for irony)

I can see where some of these fanboys are coming from, but they are definitely far too critical of the game's graphics.  Now here's where the irony comes in.

Many fanboys, I assume cows, bash Left 4 Dead's graphics (one of them even saying it could be done on the original Xbox, even though Half-Life 2 struggled and the frame-rate was incredibly inconsistent).  So they bash the graphics, but I guess they don't remember when the Orange Box was ported to the PS3 last year and scored AA because the engine didn't run well on the PS3.  Its funny how fanboys bash games without even thinking about how those same games run worse on their preferred console :lol:

So keep bashing the game's graphics, even though EA is going to port the game and you will get yet another inferior version of a Valve product.  I guess if you guys can't win you might as well bash the game because your console can't even run it properly :lol:

I hope they make a decent port to the ps3 if they ever want to make one.

I really want to enjoy this game but dont got a x360 or a good enough pc to run it.

Btw i dont care much about graphics i care more about the gameplay.

What about it?..

What morons said l4d could be done on original xbox? half life 2 on original xbox was low/medium with a bad framerate....

left 4 dead has better textures than half life 2, far better lighting, real time dynamic shadows and more going on onscreen. if you put left 4 dead running on an xbox you'd see single digit framerates. like 3 fps.

First of all, The Orange Box on PS3 was marked down .5 points, but was still AAA.

Second of all, the XBox hardware is from, like, 2001... Half Life 2 was one of the most advanced games in 2004, and wasn't possible on consoles. Left 4 Dead is even more advanced, so why would anyone think the original XBox could handle it? There would definitely have to be a major downgrade.

Watch the GameTrailers review of Half Life 2 for the 360.

Well, can you blame cows?  I mean they have been playing (read: hyping) the greatest shooter evah created in Killzone 2 that they look down at L4D with pity and content.

What about it?..

:lol:I think he's making an example of another game that could probably run on the original Xbox.:|

PS3 is my preferred console..

And I honestly don't give a snakes big toe about L4D, as the game is currently irrelevant to me. It sounds like a decent concept to me, but I honestly.. PERSONALLY don't find it worthy of all the hype. But I probably know about as much about L4D as a 360 only owner knows/cares about Killzone 2, which is also an amazing game, despite what fanboys say.

I think we are at a crossroads here.

I'm pretty sure it is safe to say Killzone 2, and Left 4 Dead are both decent games. Maybe one is better than the other in different peoples perspectives, but that is entirely moot.

No srsly, the game look like a 2000 PC shooter. AND I LOOOOVE my 360.

And don't trust the fact that SONY is behind the title? a ton more devs are behind the titlte, people learning from there mistakes, better hardware? If anything PS2 held the original game back. 

When has a SONY title flopped, again? 

besides IMPRESSION/PREVIEWS say the game is AWSOME.

I'm pretty sure that was his point. And Guerrilla Games have yet to achieve even an 'A' on consoles yet. Killzone 1=6.9.

rachet & clank anyone :D

nah, this game looks better than HL2 lol (xbox version)

but L4D reminded me of HL2 alot, mostly due to the Source engine I think. Gameplay feels kinda wacky compared to other shooters this gen imo. (360 demo)

Still a very fun game. But I'll pass

No srsly, the game look like a 2000 PC shooter. AND I LOOOOVE my 360.

That's funny cause the game looks damn good on PC. 

THE REAL irony is that ea ported orange box to the ps3 not valve....

and here its valve own work on the xbox360 which happens to be inferior

spin that one

So if you're talking about the 360 version being inferior, then inferior to what?

did you even bother reading the opening post?

he was saying how the orange box on ps3 was inferior when it was a port by EA not valve! so of course it will be bad.

yet valves own work of l4d on xbox360 happens to be inferior too.

so what im saying is that is the real irony!

im not bashing. which is what you seemed to have assumed....i know the pc is the superios version....obvious thing really

understand now?

but it is ture that L4D doesnt look sweet in terms of GRAPHIC.

Im glad that Im not blind.

Inferior to what? PC? Yeah it is slightly inferior to the PC version but isn't that to be expected?

yes it is to be expected. but TC says EA's port of orange box was bad. as if valve ported it. when they didnt.

you would expect valves own work to be a good job done. like orange box was on the xbox360. but l4d came out inferior to that too.

so i dont see why he bashed the ps3.

The Source engine has proved superior on the 360 vs the PS3 thus far, so how is L4D inferior to any game on consoles thus far using the Source engine?

PC native games tend to not port well to consoles; even if the game isn't necessarily pushing technology, I assume because they are not designed from the ground up for a system with a low memory budget. It is the reason many cross platform games base the game on 360 and port over to PC, it is guaranteed to run on both platforms were as PC to console requires re-optimisation.

cows don't need PC ports because all ps3's come with high end PC's capable of running all PC?360 games, jeez everybody knows that.htotheo

well...that would be a fair pack: PS3 + PC = $400

Killzone 2, nuff saidUltra-Fatality

Having played HL2 on Xbox and playing both PS3 and 360's version of Orange Box, I think The graphics looked great on the Xbox for its time and I don't see much of a difference at all between both versions on modern consoles. That being said, I always thought the original Xbox had HUGE potential, after seeing games like Half-Life 2 and Riddick, but lo and behold, they killed the system too early, making it the shortest lived of last gen's consoles. The jump from Xbox to 360 wasn't very big at all IMO, since all I really see added to games anymore are more Riddick shadows and some silly motion blur. On the other hand, PS2 to PS3 is a much bigger jump, with the span between PS2 and PS3 is the largest and seeing the most visual improvements.

So yeah, I would say it's a safe bet to say Microsoft had some damn powerful hardware in their original system, but with Xbox taking tippy toe steps since last gen's days, I'm not surprised with how Left for dead looks. As for PS3, the only reason certain games get flack for visual issues is because of lazy development. Believe me, the horsepower is there, but not many developers know how to weild that sort of potential.

i dont think the graphics are what  make L4D a great game, rather how you play and how the game itself(ai director) toys with you.

though, most say the 360 version is noticably inferior to the pc version.

but orange box was awesome on either? :?

so the $10million for advertising the game was too much?

though, i'm still leaning to buy this game(PC version, thank you.) :D
