Found this from Gamescom, looking very nice and seems to translate well to consoles.

Thats not 360, it can't be

Holy crap, that looks amazing! :o

I'm no fanboy, hell I admit Uncharted 3 is more a looker than Gears 3, but that looks better than both. I'm blown away.

That looks surprisingly fantastic, looking like a great port. :)

Hope it doesn't get canceled like The Witcher. :P

any offscreen video will look great.. i'll wait for direct feed

That was quite awesome. What are you looking forward the most Raven, this or Skyrim?

man i wish the 360 and ps3 had just a little more power, watching that vid makes me realize how much both consoles are pretty much out of date compared to the pc. alfy57

I will consider getting this game when it comes out. That is if I have the money/ time. There are ALOTof games coming out that I'm getting.

It's the first time I've heard somebody saying that offscreen, low quality video somehow makes a game look better, but hey, it's your opinion, I respect it.

I'm surprised so many people are impressed with the visuals showcased here. Coming from someone who played the PC version on the higher settings, this is a far cry from that one.

There are several shortcomings noticeable even in this low quality off-screen clip, out of which the complete lack of antialiasing and the severe screen tearing issues stand out the most.

I'm guessing those who claim to see no difference between the two never actually looked at the PC version, much less played it on a decent rig themselves.

All things considered it looks good. They'll need to push for vsync though.

So much for hermits claim that the game would look like complete crap on the consoles. That looks better than what some PC gamers got.i5750at4Ghz

looks good for a console game, on par with some laptops I've seen. I'm glad I can play the PC version but this is a nice option for those who don't have one. Heil68

Hey, quit making posts that make sense and aren't bashing something! You're in system wars! Take sides!

Damn that looks good. I was going to fire up Mafia 2, but after seeing that I'm in The Witcher 2 kinda mood.

The dialog in this game is so very bad. Just like The Witcher 1 it sounds so forced, and the way things are phrased often seems wrong and out of place.

It is probably a translation thing, a lot of European made games come off sounding like this in American English.

The biggest problem is the low-res and poor AA/AF imho. They should've given the PS3 more RAM and a RAM update for the 360.

looks real sweet.

Looks fantastic running on the 360. If they manage to smooth out how it runs, while keeping it looking like that then I will be a very happy camper indeed.

[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"][QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"] I doubt ver, very much the game doesn't have AA. MLAA is extremely cheap, even on the consoles.i5750at4Ghz

I thought SSAO was important gave the game a lot of character.

The game looks bare bones without the effects, like in this video.

Ubersampling makes the game look a lot better especially in motion, but yes it's too taxing. I turned it off and on, depending on how crowded the situation was :P

Anyway, needless to say CD Projekt has optimized the engine a lot since launch with the patches. And it will be more optimized with The Witcher 2 2.0.

I can't wait. My PC struggles with the game, so i've stopped playing it until I upgrade. I will be buying it on 360 as well though.

[QUOTE="Heil68"][QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"] True, but that doesn't make my statement any less true. PCs maybe powerful, but unless the games showcase it who cares. As of right now, very few PC games showcase the power in most modern PCs.i5750at4Ghz

There's some screenshots posted on the game page.

How the hell could you guys tell if that looked good or not? The quality was crap!

I guess im getting old..and this gen is getting old because it doesnt look any different or better than any games Ive played this gen. Doesnt look bad, but nothing that screams...OMG look at this game...
