Winner of best graphics of e3 2010 (GT)

[QUOTE="amaneuvering"] You don't have to. You just have to look how they categorize their scoring at the end. They don't split it into art style and graphics, or even art style and technical graphics or graphics technology. They simply score GRAPHICS, in the vast majority of cases, and that covers both the art style and the graphics technology. See, I did all the work for you in proving my point.wolverine4262

Art style is art style.

Technical graphics is technical graphics.

Graphics is both.

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"][QUOTE="Fried_Shrimp"] Yes it does. I did a course in Graphic Design. Fried_Shrimp

[QUOTE="amaneuvering"]

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"] No it doesn't. There's art style and there's technical graphics. Kirby shows no great display of technical graphics.tomarlyn

I tell you what...

Show me the reviews that rate the "art style" and "graphics" as separate categories...

In fact, show me the reviews that differentiate between art style and "technical graphics" yet only use the word "graphics" when they specifically mean "technical graphics" or "graphics technology"...

"Graphics" on it's own means BOTH the art style and the graphics technology powering the visuals when discussing a games "graphics".

Anyone who thinks differently is the one that is in the wrong imo and if they are using the word graphics when they actually mean just the technology/engine behind the graphics then they should specify it as such, using terms like "technical graphics" or "graphics technology" or something like that, and not the other way around.

It's called the Internet.

It has millions of reviews.

Try looking at some of them and seeing how they categories the scoring at the end.

Let's see if they call it art style, technical graphics/graphics technology or just plain old Graphics...

I tell you what..I'll save you the hassle too.

The vast majority of reviews use GRAPHICS when referring to BOTH the art style and the "technical graphics" or "graphics technology".

Art style means art style.

Technical graphics/graphics technology means technical graphics/graphics technology.

GRAPHICS means BOTH.

Ah, common sense indeed...

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"][QUOTE="Fried_Shrimp"] Graphics means the overall art style, and Kirby wiped the floor clean.Ontain

[QUOTE="g0ddyX"]

All this just means that developers will work even harder on their current games to look more impressive.
Which is a good thing.

To be beaten by Kirby is a joke. But the joke will be on those who think that this is the best graphics, artsy or not.

[QUOTE="amaneuvering"][QUOTE="tomarlyn"] Where do you get your reviews from? A professional review most often comments on the specifics of the art style and technical graphics in a game seperately (lighting, textures, etc). Anyone assuming art style and technical achievement is the same thing has no common sense imo.tomarlyn

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"]Anyone with two pairs of eye'sFried_Shrimp

Um since when are Graphics and art style the same thing?? This best GRAPHICS of e3 = fail.

bigblunt537

All of the other nominees were based on actual graphical quality, while Kirby was based on the art style.

In other words, this was just a big attention grab designed to get this posted on forums.

Stay classy, Gametrailers.

[QUOTE="amaneuvering"][QUOTE="tomarlyn"] Your taste of reviews is a poor one IMO. Here at Gamespota game isn't hung out to dry like that anymore thankfully.

i5750at4Ghz

Maybe all the other games got a 4 in art style and an 8 in graphics technology but Kriby got a 10 in art style and a 3 in graphics technology.

[QUOTE="Fried_Shrimp"] I've seen photo's of you on the internet. Fried_Shrimp

Yup,

I'd go with that.

I do agree that Kirby looked better than most of the games there.

Of course I don't like realistic looking games so that could just be me. :P

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"][QUOTE="amaneuvering"] I know what you said but you should have said "The Conduit is a TECHNICAL graphic king for Wii" if that is what you meant. You are the one confusing things here. Graphics means both art style and technical graphics.brandontwb

Graphics also means art style. Kirby is legit.Fried_Shrimp

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"] No it doesn't, there's graphics and there's art style/presentation whatever you want to call it. We can do this all day if you want so I'll offer a truce and a box of cookies to share.tomarlyn

I hate it when websites do this. It's 100% for the publicity and to get more traffic to their website.

Most likely I'm right. In any case, people get too impressed over art styles like that. Sure, it's creative. But the amount of effort needed to make that style vs technically cutting edge style isn't even close.

[QUOTE="Fried_Shrimp"]Graphics also means art style. Kirby is legit.x8VXU6

why is everybody so mad about this its just a gaming website get over it.

GT felt like kirby was the best game pleasing to the eye and not the same as every other realistic game its not that hard to understand.

Because it was a stretch that was evidently going to create debate. Cheap publicity and unworthy of the award.

Guys, if they were only considering technicals merits, no console game would win ever. (Maybe at launch). How many of you guys would complain if, lets say, Kz3 had won the award? "WTF?, Kz3? Metro 2033 (PC) got robbed!"

why it has to be publicity it jsut cant be that they actually like the art style then all the other technical games out there?

you dont have to think kirby has the best graphics this E3 but they do and it is a nice looking game.

im pretty sure if it was on ps3 or 360 this wouldnt even be a debate most likely

the video is a joke it should be counted as best art style

Epic Yarn looked quite Epic.

bigblunt537

Meh. It certainly does look different and cool, but i don't think it is anything that should be winning any awards.

It should be the best art style not the best graphics.
