What did you expect, it was obvious that the orginal screens were promo bullshots. Just like most the promo shots for almost every game this gen.

I dunno guys I think I have to disagree with most of you. I think the game looks good! I don't understand the comment about poor animations or even ugly characters. I also don't think those screens do much justice for the videos on gametrailers. There are quite a few moments in those movies where the graphics look quite stellar and I'm actually more excited about the game now than I was before I watched those vids. I also think that judging this game without playing it is going to be a big mistake for the naysayers when review scores come out later this year. Of course that's just my opinion but I guess sooner or later we'll find out who's right or wrong. Oh, and one more thing, I don't think you've seen everything there is to see graphics wise.

[QUOTE="mattbbpl"]

[QUOTE="mr-krinkles"]

That clip reminded me of the old BladeRunner videogame for PC. Anyone ever play it? It didn't get great reviews but I enjoyed it.

I thought it was well received by critics. It got a good score from PC Gamer, if I remember correctly.

Edit: I couldn't find the PC Gamer review, but it only got a 6.0 on Gamespot... Oh well.

It was a real hawt game though man, especially if youre a fan of the movie. I played it when I was about 12 though, and hadn't seen the film then. It, like Heavy Rain, was basically an interactive movie, but it had GREAT script, voice acting, characters, story, everything. Years later when I watched the movie, I thought about the game and its parallel story and how well the two complemented each other. I guess the game would be really dated by now, but it was a very special game to me. Plus there were strip clubs :D.

I heard it was good and wanted to play it (I was a big fan of adventure games), but just didn't have the money when it released. Oh well.

The same thing that happened to Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway. The target visuals were totally unrealistic.

I don't know what you're talking about, TC. The game looks almost the same as the first gameplay trailer. The only problems I see are with framerate and animations.

The main problem I have with the scene is that its stupid. The character looks awkward and out of place in that situation.

They really should have thought twice before releasing those early pics because there will be nothing but comparisons now. Smart move though because we wouldn't be here talking about it if it had normal looking early screenshot, would we? ;)

What's with all the Heavy Rain bashing threads lately??? I bet this game will be another AAAE for the PS3. Im buying it on day one. The graphics look good to me and it's still at least a year away from being released.

the chick still looks that good, you should watch the dancing video...she likes just as detail, besides..it isn't finished. you can't expect every thing in the game to look good. The main focus this game got was from the character models and too me they are just as incredible.

the last screenshot is shown in a 20min gameplay so you can't say its worser than that, maybe they choosen the wrong enviroment to show off infront of graphic whores.

Yeah they were bullshots/target renders whatever, but it's not the faces that bother me tho, they're more cartoony than realistic now but they can still do the job, it was mostly the animations and the clothes(textures and blockyness) that caught my eye in a bad way. But they'll prolly throw ton of blur and other post-processing effects on it before it's done so doesn't really matter what it looks like, you won't be able to see it anyway.

Based on recent events, it may take a while.

Agreed, as long as there are promotional shots and pre renders and people wanting to hype there will be misjudgement.

seeing as how you're the only one making the argument that the game looks the same i'd say the odds are on my side ;)

Graphics wise......yeah, I can see what your talking about. But anyone bashing the games concept clearly no nothing about the gaming medium. Only in games can you have dynamic stories which can change at any moment due to your actions. QTE's are just the way you make these decisions. Ultimately what matters is how well told the story in Heavy Rain is, cause thats all the game has going for it.

Can we stop with the "Alpha stage, Beta Stage" nonsense? Every developer uses these terms differently and they mean nothing as a result.

Killzone 2 was in an "Aplha stage" for the majority of it's development cycle and this game is reportedly only 8 months from release (which includes time after the game has gone gold as well as QA testing).
