I don't doubt it, I was looking at the Official Xbox Magazine at my local Gamestop, and from the pictures I saw, I can totally agree. This game will be so awesome.

unral 2 is like shadowrun. but, i wanna know, if the game concept is gonna change like it did from 1 to 2 and so on. i know its going back to first person view. i hope they take out the one shot kill game option. that ruined part 1. the one hit red laser. will see how good it is. next gen games are changing quick. for fps. i really dont think i m even going to buy halo 3. its just to boring compared to whats out now.

Not. XBOX magazine has full coverage of UT3 & although it looks marginally better than GeOW, I saw nothing that would make me think that Gears is "ugly". It doen't look that much better, but who knows, maybe screenshots doesn't do UT3 justice.

framerate is a big factor for FPS games. PC addicts go nuts when they are unable to have 60+ framerates in their games.

I've never gotten as worked up about gears' graphics (despite giving it a 10 in my review, as it's relative to the 360 and it's release....)... Perhaps it's because I'm also a PC gamer with a nice gaming rig ;) I expect UT3 to do some serious thrashing, as it's releasing a year later.

I have to agree with people who are saying the 30fps might dent the game a little. A game like unreal, the fastest FPS on the planet. Yeah, it needs to be perfect, the reason it was built on skill is because it was so fast giving everyone the ability to learn to dodge bullets. But hey, if you guys are gunna be-hotch about it, then dont buy the game. I am going to be the first one at gamestop on release day

FPS locked at 30 isn't a big deal when all other 360 players are playing it that way. Frame-rate didn't stop Halo 1/2 from being great competitive games and UT3 should be no exception especially when they must slow down the game speed in relation to the PC version. It's all about balance and flow. The more smooth action that Epic can get on screen--the better.

The 360 /=/ PC gaming. 360 Gaming is a lot slower, it wouldn't matter much with a slow frame rate because you can't hinder much anyways. The reason low FPS is bad in PC gaming because it hinders the mouse.

You ever played UT2004, do you realise how fast it is, imagine Quake 4 on speed, its insanely fast and PC players require a rock solid framerate that is running quite high due to the game being so fast (usually at least 60fps), this isnt Halo we are talking about, UT is much different from you average console shooter, if you want to play UT fast and presice then imo it gets majorly improved if it has a higher framerate, understand?

UT3 is way way more stressful on graphics than Forza, they will have to really really drain the 360 to get it to run at 60 fps. I know a lot of this sounds stupid, for most console FPS 30fps with a little motion blur is fine, but if you have play UT2K4 you will know what I am saying.

Yea exactly. Newer game in theory released from same DEVS should = a improvement on graphics. at least a year or so after gears was released. Mind you dont be surprised if they are just trying to market their product people and the grapx end up being on par.

They're talking about the PC, idiot.

On the PC, you got hte following:

24x Q CSAA, compared to Xboxs' 4x regular AA

16x AF compared to 4x AF

8000x8000 res textures compared to xbox's 2000x2000 textures (maximum supported for the xbox's amount of RAM)

Manual polygon control

The capability to turn certain settings so high that it runs like crap on your computer.

Of course, if the manage to manage VRAM on the xbox a bit better, it'd therefore be the best looking game EVAR!

That's true, but all the same after seeing how Gears' online runs, I don't have high hopes for what they can do with UT.
