Lair Most Graphically Impressive Title Since Geow

Then you sir, need to go back to school and learn how to count. Their are over a 100 solders in the second screen, about 50 in this first.

There is a lot of soldiers on the screenshot, but the reality is, they all look the same and in the same position. And if you go check any posted screenshot in this thread, you will see, that all the soldiers are always in the same position. It's like they cut down on the animation.

This alone saves tons of computing power. And all of the screens thus far look grainy and blurry and some smart usage of bitmaps to make some objects look 3D while it is in reality 2D, and the actual playing characters the dragon looks out of place because of his detail compared to the rest in most of the shots.

Lair does indeed look good, but the some characters models need more work and when flying it sometimes look blurry. Gears, Crysis, and Mass Effect looks better IMO.

Sorry, but this is a game you loose, i happen to have 10x better Mass Effect pics of the LATEST kind, and ME is released 6-7 month from now, when you do not have pics of Lair that look better, those rae LATEST BEST PICS, unlike the latest on ME that look stunning, and Lair is released in a month

greg_splicer

in case you didnt see what i posted about 4 times in this thread. the pictures you posted were known and confirmed to be alpha builds of the game unlike the ones i showed you of mass effect. you failed misreably and did nothing but self own yourself.

It's currently in an alpha state, development-wise, so there is a lot of time left before the game ships in July.

So, beeing alpha means that the 4 weeks until Lair releases are somehow turned to 6 months ?

Because i do not see them do anythign in 4 weeks

Also yout Mass Effect pics are confirmed not alpha, not beta, but from a totally unfinished level, understand the difference, and ME has 6-7 months more, unlike Lair,and developers CONFIRMED this is the case

thats lemming logic for you.

[QUOTE="Pro_wrestler"]:lol: This is Hilarious, what kind of GPU is PS3 using? A GPU from 1986. More Lair shots:

20,000? ROFL!!! TCHBO, I count 27 at the most.
No draw distance ahahaha WTF???
InfamousC

doesnt look like 27 to me. stop with the damage control.

Yeah there are alot more than 27, but there my point about the models. I am not blind, but some of them and even that dragon in the second pic need work. Really Gears models look alot better then those.

[QUOTE="ToScA-"][QUOTE="Evil-Zero86"][QUOTE="Mkavanaugh77"]

Yeah it is probably the most impressive, but still doesn't match GEARS

And it will be surpassed by upcoming games like Mass Effect, Bioshock, Halo3

InfamousC

Please leave Halo 3 out of this...we've seen that game already, Mass Effect doesn't look better than Lair. no comment on bioshock, haven't seen enough screens.

Oh, but it does :|

no it doesnt. i also dont see mass effect with 32km areas with 25k enemies on screen. 360 doesnt have the power to run this game.

This coming from the human being who said Halo 3 will be the biggest disapointment this decade lol Go away troll 

Mass Effect kills it, sorry.Verge_6

I agree...well maybe not those words exactly lol

I honestly don't think Lair looks amazing... it looks good but at times it looks bad in some shots in terms of graphics.

In terms of Art Direction I don't like how it looks overall. Some people will compare it to Gears but gears had an art style of it's own that was done in an amazing way. Something I would see in a movie theatre really in terms of it's detail and great work.

I think a lot of Gears of War getting the title as best looking next gen console game has to do with it's art direction which is amazing.

Let them pretend. Blind faith and hope is all they have while waiting for a worthy game to play. Just let them be

Isn't that exactly what you, and all other cows, are doing?

Putting blind faith into Lair and Killzone 2.  

LOL @ people STILL posting IGN stretched alpha shots of this game... Guys, give it up, that game does not look choppy at all in the videos, or other aplpha none stretched screenshots.

In motion I defeinitely see a large scale in this game, and it's definitely about as good looking as gears, or a tad better looking in my opinion.... The dev walkthrought videos proved that.

Mass Effect definately looks more impressive than Lair. The whole damn game is real-time! No cut-scenes with better graphics, it's all the same. The power of the U3 engine.

Because maybe I ain't clauded like most of you are, that might explain it.

Anyway here the image to see what I'm talking about, I marked the most obvious ones, but basicly there's 5 different poses in this screenshot and most characters are stuck in the same ones. No really looking so special if you fly with your dragon over them and all are stuck in the same pose, or start to hit you at the same time with the same animation. 

But you might aswell ignore this. To me it looks dumb.

Theres the fanboyish comments we were looking for. Area size now means good graphics? Lair looks good in a few area's but horrible in many.

360 cant even run the games ps3 can on the same scale at such high graphical output. 360 should stick to what it does best coridoor to coridoor first person shooters.

I'm actually quite sure out of all the PS3 games that are on Xbox 360, the Xbox 360 whips the hell out of the PS3 version even in the graphical department.

Really? I have yet to see a single game looking better than GeOW or close to it. Lair looks subpar itself. Textures are subpar. All I see going for it is water effects. maybe im spoiled primarily being a pc gamer but I don't have to brainwash myself to justify a $600 paperweight purchase. 

just wait until a dev like Epic puts the UE3 to use on the PS3..  Unreal Tournament 3 will be the definitive end of the "nothing on the PS3 looks as good as Gears" comments..

but anyway, on topic, Lair's sense of scale looks absolutely awesome..  but in terms of "looking better than Gears", i'll have to wait to play the PSN demo before i know for sure..
