the best lighting i seen on the market was in doom3 flare mod where u can toss like over 500 slowing pc to 0 fps lol dynamic shadow/lightsource flares or crysis warhead the cave level where u can toss around light fixtures casting dynamic shadows.
If used properly i think doom3 engine is one of the most atmospheric engines. crysis warhead updated 2 engine is badass also, but i think doom3 does interiors better. lol this one game necrovision uses the painkiller engine they basically ripped straight off the doom3 hell level except it's not as atmospheric. the lighting isnt as good even when they updated the lighting, the painkiller engine used to be like the source engine prerendered/lightmaps old school lighting. but even when updated cant compare to doom3 or crysis's lighting.
[QUOTE="wordtoyobraind"]they should of atleast licensed the doom3 engine so the lighting didnt suck as much.biggest_loser
I doubt the doom 3 engine could support as many character models on a map like L4D - Source has always been a superior engine and secondly L4D was never about amazing visuals anyway. Umm lmfao, source engine uses quake 1 engine code dude.
bungie actually basically only good at graphics,it's just on halo 3 they used the original xbox halo 2 engine they were too lazy. bungie sucks at level design or weapons balance or weapons or core gameplay.
bungie actually built the halo 2 engine for the original xbox and the game was pretty damn impressive for it's time, halo combat evolved looked badass when it was first released. only reason halo 3 graphics suck they didnt make a new engine for the new console xbox360, halo reach they finally are from what people are saying if they do it's gonna own playstation 3 crap.
You can talk about multi-plats all you want, but we know that when devs put their minds to it, multiplats can look the same on both the PS3 and 360.
However, when it comes to exclusives, the PS3 is litterally storming ahead. Uncharted 1 still looks better than 99% of 360 games, and it is 2 years old!!! How is the 360 going to compete graphically when Uncharted 2 comes out? And what with the news that the Killzone 2 engine is being used in many upcoming PS3 games... oh dear MS, oh dear...

wait untill halo reach comes out finally a game with engine built for 360 will pwn all ps3 games.
[QUOTE="wordtoyobraind"]ps3 kids are gonna be in for a surprise when dev's finally start do making engines built ground up for xbox360 like sony developers have been doing that's the only reason ps3 even has any impressive games because they built the engines and everything ground up for ps3. while 360 games like halo 3 & ost use the halo 2 engine made for the original xbox and gears of war uses multiplatform engine used on pc/ps3 also. It's almost kinda unfair for people to even say ps3 is graphics king because killzone2 is built ground up for ps3 there is no first person shooters built ground up for xbox360. halo reach might finally be that game though and i bet it destroys killzone2. read that^^ people arent very smart lol
