Don't know. That enemy doesn't look like it's the same guy. Overall, the game'll look better than MP2, so no worries.

Possibly upgrade, but definitely not a downgrade.

top is old bottom is new

what do you think?Rahnyc4

It's hard to tell because one looks like it was a pic taken off of a monitor while viewing the agme (top one) and the other one looks like it has a totally different color scheme.

i think its safe to say, that the older images and trailer could of been from the gamecube dev kit maybe? either way this is what polish wii games could look like, if devs actually spend time on the hardware, instead of rushing.

Hard to tell, the lighting in the rooms is totally different. Definitely more detail on the bottom monster though.

Wow, usually pics on this game pales to what it's like in motion. They look too different to compare though.

looks like Nintendo is showing the Wii is stronger than the gc.

But the first looks like it was from the gc dev kit.

Downgrade, but mostly because the top isn't just a screen, it looks a capture from a television where a demo or earlier build was being played. Captures of the game actually running tend to look better. Just look at Gears captures vs GS screenshots comparisons. The difference is massive.

that's an upgrade, clear as day. It's possible to prefer the more gleamy-ness of the top pic, but the second pic has much more detail. kudos on the other pics too, bc1391, they look great.

um no. darkening a scene is what you do when you want to cover up a lack of detail. Brighter means you show off more. Where do you see all this extra detail in the darker pic?

On the actual enemy. Where there is detail on him it has been replaced by bright bland blue balls.. ahem..

Also on the level they replaced the detail with blue lights. Unelss if its completely a diff enemy and diff room?

I still think Prime to looks great. So even if its only a 1% upgrade I will be happy.

you know the top pic is the before and the bottom is the after right?Do you mean those blue balls surrounding the head in the top pic? The bottom pic actually looksgritty and textured with more colours, while the top one is shinier with only a few colours. The top one apparently has a few jags in it as well, on the blue ball at the top of the head. I think they are the same enemy and the same room, although it isn't the exact same shot
