Consoles are so outdated

[Oligarch]

Grand Turismo 5 in reality:

and now how consoletards can call Fallout 2 ugly and outdated?????

 

[Lyric Suite]

Blurred textures and lack of anti-aliasing betray its console origins. Would have looked three times as good had they made it for PC.

 

[MetalCraze]

is that really gt5?

Cuz it looks like a trollin' attempt with GT4

 

[Konjad]

consoles suck news at 11

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Who cares about driving games. Where's the excitement of driving really fast if you can't crash and die?

Nor get those cool car chicks.

 

[Blackula]

lol

Runs on the same hardware, what can you do.

 

[Sceptic]

The guy with his lower midsection cut off in #2 looks p. lulzy.

Otherwise, what LS said. #4 in particular looks awful.

 

[Black]

But it's just in the beta!
But there will be patches!
But modders will fix it!
But it's only a piece of shit!

Uh?

 

[MetalCraze]

Well in any case PS3 hardware is a weakling losing even to XBawks360.

So let's see what the other camp has to offer:

And unlike Gran Turdismo it's actually a good game. And you can crash and if your car is seriously fuck up man - then it's game over.

I havn't played dirt 2 but from what I can see it's on GRID engine which is very good. I suppose I should try it then.

 

[MetalCraze]

Yeah it's GRID engine, except prettier (none of that bloom anymore)

It still has semi-realistic car behaviour, physics and car damage.
When it comes to racing games semi-sims-semi-arcades is what I like. Another thing I like is that AI can do mistakes too in contrast to your generic racing games where AI just rides on rails.

I especially enjoy the "trailblazer" rally game mode with its crazy speeds:

[MapMan]

LOL! Did you upload this vid? TheMonocleMan? Oh wow.

 

[MetalCraze]

I decided to contribute to the Cause

 

[fizzelopeguss]

[treave]

6 years and it looks like shit.

Wow. I'm impressed.

 

[Lyric Suite]

So let's see what the other camp has to offer:

Why is there a haze over everything? WHY? I'm starting to think developers actually use bloom to cover up shitty textures.

I'm curious what the next consoles will have hardware wise at this point. Seems like all they really need is more RAM and a better video card and they could do a lot more with the games.

 

[Genma:TheDestroyer]

I don't get it, back in the day when Gran Tourismo came out relatively routinely each release still managed to have a pretty big jump in visual quality. They weren't 'I can't tell the difference between my TV and my window' level, but for the time they were nice.


I can remember the wait for this game before the current gen consoles even came out. WTF happened? They had more space and resources to work on a GT than ever before, and this is what they come up with?


Edit: There's shit in these screenshots for the backgrounds that would embarrass folks from the tail end of the PSX days, and for once that's not even a exaggeration.

Next-gen faggots.

 

[Reject_666_6]

GRID >> Dirt 2

Just sayin'.

 

[baronjohn]

Well most console gamers are trailer trash that can't afford a big TV, so it's a waste making quality textures

 

[SimpleComplexity]

Consoles actually have Anti-Aliasing.

Sit 2 meters away from your TV/monitor = 2 x AA
Sit 4 meters away from your TV/monitor = 4 x AA
Sit 8 meters away from your TV/Monitor = 8 x AA

Try it out and watch those screenshots again.

 

[Rogue]

You're all a bunch of graphics whores.

 

[KalosKagathos]

Fail thread is fail. This is prettier than Crysis.
