The Official Chaos Rings Hype Thread: Ipod RPG from the developers of Wild Arms!

[QUOTE="Hakkai007"]

[QUOTE="ghost392"]

By that logic any game using prerendered sucks??? FFIX Xenogears etc. all SUCK?

Seriously its called art dirrection they are making it look unique with painting esq in CC it was the same universe as FF7 so Chaos Rings is a un ique game and this is a HYPE thread not a HATE thread

ghost392

Ummmm excuse me, I may be wrong about this, but weren't you the one complaining about SMT: Strange Journey not have animations in battle.....

...seems hypocritical to use this "design choice" arguement if it was you who said that.

Also CC does look better and is more demanding.

Well if making characters jaggy and backgrounds static is a design choice it was a very terrible one imo.

Wow you ask me about snow particles when you posted the pics with them... Chaos Rings has nice smoke effect in lava too soo it wins in particles. Its CC fault it uses bad 3D backgrounds as opposed to good 2D ones... Also the 2D is a design choice because they want to make it like FF7,8,9, Xnogears, etc. The backgrounds look very nice In Chaos rings like a painting.ghost392

I guess he got ownd too fast to respond...Desmonic

No I was adding a poll

FF13 has good 3D backgrounds but games like FFX would look better with prerendered imo

FWIW, Final Fantasy X used a combination of 3D and pre-rendered backgrounds.

When is this getting stickied and Im hoping AAAAE because Chrono Cross got itghost392

I couldn't say what this game will get, but it does look like something worth keeping an eye on.

[QUOTE="ghost392"]

[QUOTE="Desmonic"] Again, what snow particles? The ones in the Chaos RIngs pic? What about them? Do you think having snow particles but not even being able to do 3D backgrounds is a good thing? So because Caos Rings has a little fog above the (which is likely a part of the actual background) lava it wins in particles!? LAWL! XD Also, going with your logic 2D backgrounds >>>> 3D backgrounds/enviornments.. So FF 13, in your opinion would have been better with 2D backgrounds...heck, it wouldn't even need to be a next gen game! It could all still be done on the PS2, GameCube and Xbox! Either way, Crisis Core is far more impressive for a handheld RPG and as I said will most likely end up as the better game. Desmonic

I told you it was a design choice because other Ipod Touch games do 3D and the particles are amazing compared to CC and Good 2d > jaggiefest 3D backgrounds

FF13 has good 3D backgrounds but games like FFX would look better with prerendered imo

To be fair though CC uses alot more space then Chaos Rings so stop comparing... or I will compare to DS rpg graphics XDghost392

Um Im sure it can handle it and what is defeat? It would look much better then CC if Apple wanted to dump UMD on their consumer... Ipod Touch has best spec btw.

Are you seriously going to use strange journey

^ Your saying STRANGE JOURNEY does XD Chaos Rings is more impressive btw considering its sizeghost392

Pick your poison.

[QUOTE="ghost392"]^ Other reviews arent on GS site though... Any review on GS has credit in system wars. Go to their site and you will find a plethora of Ipod Touch reviews and GS handpicked the ones they accepted and placed them on this site ( Why write the same review when they are both owned by CNET) Skittles_McGee

Keyword LINKED and go look and the Slide2Play reviews they have a GAMESPOT SCORE meaning the review is agreed with and gamespot scores the game the same

[QUOTE="ghost392"]

[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"] So basically you're admitting defeat. Of course if you're gonna compare graphics with DS RPGs, then be prepared compare everything else too. So now you have to make Chaos Rings compete with Devil Survivor, Strange Journey, The World Ends with You, FFIV, Chrono Trigger, Lunar Knights, you know what the point is there. Good luck :|HuusAsking

Cant find ipod Touch gpu but I know Ipod Touch is better because it has better video playback the only reason CC looks good is space DS- 656 KB VRAM 260,000 colors PS- 2 MB EDRAM 16.77 million colorsghost392

UPDATE: OK, I got the answers myself. The iPhone's GPU is a PowerVR part. This makes its 3D capabilities a wildcard in that no one really knows its limits. The PSPs is unknown, too, because it's proprietary, but odds are it's related to the Graphics Synthesizer that was on the PS2.

When is this getting stickied and Im hoping AAAAE because Chrono Cross got itghost392

I can't believe you just said that.

Chrono Cross ANNIHILATES this game! This game is NOTHING compared to Chrono Cross! Let along Chrono Trigger!

The only game that can beat Chrono Cross would be another "Chrono" game AND THAT'S A FACT! Don't compare this to Chrono Cross. heck NEVER Compare this to Chrono Cross!

I'm guessing AAA, since the site that does the iPhone/iPod Touch reviews here are an iPhone exclusive reviewer.

Why they are made by the same people and this has a visually unique art dirrection to it

Reviews dont convert to AAA scores do and GS scores the games (Unless your trying to call them liers *glares* which would not only be reckless but unnecessary as the other site gave Eliminate Pro a 4/4 which would be roughly 10/10 here but GS scored it a 9/10)

I know you say GS goes by scores, but GS didn't even write the review, and prob. didn't even play the game. The editor isn't even from Gamespot.
