Just bought this game 8 hours ago and played it 7 hours straight and I can tell you, this game looks so ugly. I thought about trading it in and buying Eternal Sonata instead. Sigh, and I thought voice acting can't be as bad because I love Shenmue. Gees Edge is a total sag.

Is it really necessary for him to post pics? Is that going to change your opinion of his claim because if it isn't, why should he even bother?

Looks fine to me. A slight upgrade from infinite undiscovery which i thought looked good (although horrible in some areas). Anyway i heard the battle sequances look worse than when your travelling the map. can anyone confirm this?

The battle system looks fun with performing combos and chains. I'm not really interested in the story or how the graphics look.

Wish this game came out over the summer. There are too many games coming out.

I'd like to see if the game really does look terrible. If he's going to claim the game looks terrible then let him prove it.

To be honest, after seeing the picture - it doesn't really look particularly bad or good.

I mostly suggested it so that this topic would be more worthwhile instead of just some sw member making a blanket statement about the appearence of a game.

This is SW silly, no matter how much you try to fight ignorance, it'll just keep coming lol. That is a reasonable answer though so yeah, I'll give you that much.

It's a shame we live in a time when all people care about is graphics. This might be why some devs pay more attention to graphics, than anything else; they know everyone is going to like the pretty lights, and colors. Like moths to a flame. Way to go, kids. This is why KZ2 look so good. All flash, no substance.

Well I'm sure it'll look fine on my HDTV, I think the combat looks fun, I play games for fun over a specific element in them, though in RPGs, story is the prime aspect, and from the reviews I've read, its supposed to be decent as well.

Why? Because it doesn't look like your precious KZ2? I guarantee you SO4 has a far better story than KZ2. Doesn't story count anymore? Wait...I guess not. KZ1 flopped so hard, cows are still felling it...

I bought the game earlier today and the graphics are great, i have no idea what the TC is on about.

But go ahead and trade the game in for Eternal Sonata, im sure the better graphics will more than make up for the inferior gameplay and lack of content:roll:

I didn't know RPGs were about graphics and top notch technicalities. I thought you played them merely for story and fun gameplay. Sorry if that Star Ocean didn't contain any shooting, KZ2 quality graphics or Crysis environments.

I bet it'll be the gamertag from that banned user from like...what 2 years ago? No one probably knows what I'm talking about. But guy named his gamertag,and someone pulled it up a thread from a year ago where a banned user stated the same tag.

Yeah I'm right behind you, roughly 2 and a half hours in so unless the next 4 and a half hours are cut scene... also only 30 minutes of cut scenes so far which isn't too bad considering it is the just the beginning.

The graphics look decent. o.O I didn't know the game was even out...(or did you import it?). Anywhos, I'm more interested in the story and battle system rather than the graphics. P.S.- Kinda off-topic...can anyone tell me if Eternal Sonata has a good story?Blue Dragon?

His gamertag is Wiishy guys, he does have the game. Anyway, I can obviously tell the different between combat and exploration as far as graphics go but the environments are so beautiful so far that it hasn't even bothered me yet. It didn't bother me in Infinite Undiscovery and it won't bother me here.

Blue Dragon is better, the story takes awhile to get started but it is good.

Because he is a hardcore lemming who bashes anything Sony related.....that's why...Maybe if he takes his fanboy gogles off and actually plays the demo he will notice that killzone 2 is Fantastic and has been getting outstanding scores over all reviews!

Ugh, no. Eternal Sonata isn't that bad, but I had previous interest in Chopin and such, the graphics are nice and the combat is alright, Blue Dragon has no redeedming qualities.

I have a hunch. Seeing how the ONLY Thing that has been hyped about KZ2 is it's graphics. THAT'S IT.

So the impressive first person cover system, the fantastic AI that will go for cover and hunt you down...(not infinite spawn cod4 crap), the destructible environments, the 32 player mp with rotating game types in the same game, the guns that look and sound like guns and have a real fealling to them, the weight of your charcter, the badge and class system, the clan system, the bot play, the vehicles, etc... none of that stuff was mentioned...sure..ok, you must of been watching the different killzone 2 movies, interviews an writeups then I was all 200 of them ..... What did you get the official general ramm-xbox I hate the ps3 writeup? Come on, all the stuff and more has been said about killzone 2, it has fantastic graphics sure, but way more than that too!

Liar, that's all in your imagination, the awesome online multiplayer doesn't exist, all those community features such as stat tracking, clan bets, the ability to see other people matches online, the awesome A.I that you supposedly heard about, none of it. It's all made up, there wasn't even 3 stickies dedicated to all the features of Killzone 2. It was all in our heads. ;)

So a game that looks kiddy has to have great graphics? Has a Star Ocean ever had good graphics.

It doesn't help that people started hyping the visuals as some of the best based of early pics though.
