The Witcher 2 - new incredible screenshots**56k Beware**

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"][QUOTE="tenaka2"] Saolin is that you? The game hasn't run on consoles at all because it hasn't even be tried yet.KingsMessenger

The quote was "Our internal tests suggest that it is possible" not that they have achieved it...

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"][QUOTE="-Unreal-"]

That video is really bad quality. Anyway I can't understand why people don't think those are in-game screens using the game engine. They are really good looking graphics but they're nothing that would make me think they are fake.

Here's a video that shows some nice graphics:

Well after you've seen the videos I posted, I don't understand why you would think the images are doctored. It's not like they are graphics that would be out of reach either, or require insane systems to render in real time. They are very very good graphics but I'm positive they're real time renderings from the game engine.

[QUOTE="KingsMessenger"]

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"] Yes they have tried it and it looks about the same as the PC version.GeneralShowzer

The quote was "Our internal tests suggest that it is possible" not that they have achieved it...

No they didn't. They said they tested it to see if it COULD work. That doesn't mean the game is working. Also, their engine is designed to be multiplatform, but that doesn't just making porting a magical button press. This engine is NOT CE3 or id Tech 5...

Stop putting words in the developers mouth and stop making things up.

[QUOTE="Riverwolf007"]

for the last year or so i have considered witcher 2 as a preview of what next gen console games may look like.

dakan45

if the nextbox releases in 2012 my guess would be it will look a lot like witcher 2 run on max settings.

Ok.... lets just take a look at the link YOU provided...

"Of course, what I say can't be too official, but from the tests that we've done so far it's possible to do a game that looks as good as what you've seen on trailers, and it works on consoles smoothly."

...

"It's doable to make a game that won't be crap," he said.

Tomasz Gop

They haven't done it yet.

You are wrong.

Even devs admit console games are crap, by deductive reasoning he is basically saying "console games are crap, but we THINK we can make a non-crap one, its doable"

[but unlikely]

haberman13

I think he's referring to The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf which was canned because CD Projekt thought it was crap.

Makes consoles look like there from the 90's...

Looks so good. Shame I have to get this on PC. I like consoles plug and play concept... But not the horrible graphics they have now a day.

Head = Implode ExESGO

Why implode? Normally it would EXPLODE from being filled with too much awesomeness. Unless if was filled so quickly that they awesomeness created a black hole. But in that case you should have said

Head = Spaghettify

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"][QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"]GeneralShowzer why are you such a hater? If you never read they designed the game to be console friendly, would you still be hating this much? You keep saying the game doesn't look "THAT" good. Which implies it looks good. Compared to what I've seen from the PC games out now no other RPG comes close to looking "THAT" good. Enjoy games, not the platform.i5750at4Ghz

As long as 150 pt fonts aren't used in a giant scrolling menu I'm OK with it. The radial wheel is a little dopey, but livable.

I'm with the General, only in that consoles ruin games, so we the PC gamers need to standup and say "no, we will not accept dumbing every game down"

Hard to enjoy games when a platform keeps destroying another platform. Lolsoles need to go, along with their "style" of gaming which I would equate to reality TV.

How do we accomplish this? Stop pirating games you pirates, and rip apart console design for what it is, publically and on game specific forums.

The most popular game of the most popular genre on PC sold? Shocking. I would love to see console RPG's like Fable III will sell on PC though.

This one isn't too compressed:

[QUOTE="tenaka2"][QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"] Please don't try and act like PC gamers are better than console gamers. The steam yearly sales charts were dominated by call of duty the most consolized game of all time. And we now know that steam is 50-70% of all total sales on PC. PC gamers like console style games just as much as console gamers. i5750at4Ghz

Maybe, but as a percentage of game-type consoles tend to lean towards his description; where on PC you have 12 million people playing the math simulator that is WoW.

That wouldn't happen on the consoles, the gameplay takes too much understanding of mechanics, which doesn't appeal to the console market which tends to focus on fast action/light depth.

Sure, those games sell on PC, but they don't define the market; I would say the console market is defined by that description.

Hence the anti-console crowd, we see the implication of a dev making a console port - it means the PC version is going to be "lightened up".

Damn consoles, you've ruined another one! :roll:

They have even more of these in-game shots, it looks absolutely fantastic, Two Worlds 2 doesn't look HALF this good. (technically it may, but artistically its horrid ugly trash)

DA2 looks like crap compared to the witcher 2.. I hope the gameplay in DA2 is good though:P

The lighting seems to be really good. It's really accurate looking.

[QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"][QUOTE="tenaka2"] Who said anything about better? Different players like different things, certain games sell better on certain platforms. It's not a case of better or worse.haberman13
