The GameInformer Halo: Reach Screens *56k Insert Witty Saying Here*

[QUOTE="Panosola"]

[QUOTE="mitu123"] That explains everything, I knew the game wasn't going to look exactly like this, unlike most people in this thread.:lol:

If those photos are just not even alpha stage yet then i can't imagine how it will look at the and.....maybe not the same like U2,because it is a open FPS,but i am sure at the end it will look like the trailer and a lot better than KZ2.

............they are not even alpha stage yet and already look very good and better than Halo 3.

Those are just better quality photos,just more clear......i find them in Google.The first photos here are just bad quality photos.

[QUOTE="mayceV"][QUOTE="MangaJ"]

So, if somebody can actually enhance an image like that in private, why wouldn't the developers be able to just enhance the graphics like that with all their equipment and skill?

MangaJ

No, I mean why wouldn't the developers just enhance the graphics like that in the actual gamem you know? Surely they could fiddle with contrast and sharpness for the ingame graphics.

Not enhance the graphics, up the bump detail in the textures...From the before and after pictures, looks as if they just pulled the bump and spec slider down a little.

No, those are the real pictures that were leaked the other two touched up pictures... I would love it if you could find me a site not a forum a site that has those pictures and prove me wrong.

[QUOTE="inertk"]So you decided to rehost them on your photobucket account? Where'd you get the pictures, not to say I don't believe you, but you must have a source. Too_tight_shoes

Sorry but i think the first photos here are touched up...they look a lot blur and i think they have done that just to bashing the game.I think it is a conspiracy against the Halo:REACH.I can't remember the link but i will try to find this again....i think it was from a france forum.I i don't think that the difference is big....they are just more clear.

[QUOTE="Panosola"][QUOTE="Too_tight_shoes"] I have a dozen sites with all the same images, believe me these are touched up.Too_tight_shoes

Wow guys, this thing is getting pretty heavy. This conspiracy obviously goes up higher than we can imagine. I think we might have to call in Mulder and Scully.

The image is not blurred. It's not even alpha. What do you expect? Crysis???

I think it looks pretty great.

Not console graphics king but a big improvement over Halo 3.

whelp all that CG stuff they showed .... rofl, this looks like Halo3+ColdfireTrilogy

Off-topic: your sig made me lol in my pants.

Why are people trying to make Halo into a graphics whore? The series never relied on graphics, and it never will. That's what makes it great. Don't get me wrong, games like Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 had great visuals. Butthey don'thave anywhere near the longevity that a Halo game has. COD was never "teh graphix king"...but again, it has the gameplay depth that keep people coming back.

None of the previous Halo installments had the best graphics outin their respective times- so expecting this game to be ground breaking in the graphics department is an expectation that deviates from what Bungie is focused on. They've always been focused on giving an all-around complete product. None of the other proposed "graphics kings" have anywhere near the amount of depth that Halo 3 had. And the results are evident. Offline coop/multiplayer 4 player splitscreen, online with 4 player splitscreen, forge, theater, internet uploading/downloading etc. If you are a graphics kind of guy, than that's great. But I'd rather have solid graphics and more features. And Bungie seems to think the same.

"Naturally you can understand how people's expectations weren't fulfilled by these screenshots"...who's fault is that? How stupid do you have to be toexpect top notch screenshots from a game thatisn't due for another 8-12 months. Not only that, the screens weren't dated, so who knows how early they were taken. I know this is system wars, and logic is hard to come by...but be reasonable. I'm starting to think that common sense isn't so common anymore.

looks like halo 3 to me just with a diffrent enemy. hope they add better weapons

So I actually READ the GI article, instead of just looking at the screens, and its starting to sound like theyre doing some new stuff with the formula, and battles should be more epic. Not to mention the grittier darker feel, while still maintaining the Halo artstyle. This will no doubt be an awesome game.

What are you talking about? The first 2 had some of the best console graphics for their time.

[QUOTE="inertk"] It's not exactly ludicrous to expect Microsoft's largest title to look the best, or at least as good as the other top-tier games available -- especially considering the budget and resources the team must be allocated. Especially what, 3 years after their first showing -- which had the old engine as an excuse for it's lackluster presentation. Naturally you can understand how people's expectations weren't fulfilled by these screenshots, forgetting the lofty expectations created by what I said above, but even compared to the trailer they released not so long ago. Even if the final product is the best looking game ever imagined, what we're being shown here doesn't really impress me. But again, I'd rather wait for gameplay footage. topgunmv

No there's a new enemy in the screens. They're like a cousin to the Jackals.
