Wow you make it sound as if the graphics took a backwards step from even the early shots we've all seen before.
Is it really that bad?
HA! I had forgotten about the promising screenshots that had already been released. Thanks for reminding me...
I just saw all the new, terrible shots in OXM and got bummed about how bad it looked
without thinking about the mostly good stuff I've already seen.
Hopefully the previous shots we've seen are closer to the truth then the new OXM
shots (shudder...). I already threw the magazine away but let me get it to see what they
said.
Ughh... buried under scraps of tonights dinner.
Anyway it says they can say with confidence the game is looking much more impressive
than before "closer to what we expect from the next-gen power of the Xbox 360"
It mostly talks about gameplay from the first 3 levels but they never really rave about
graphics or effects much except for "visual tricks like the new lighting and parallax mapping
capabilities".
They mention it was running on newer Beta hardware and that it 's "much more impressive",
but other than that they seem to be ignoring graphics.
Although they do mention Kameo and say that Kameo "felt like we were looking at true
next-generation graphics. hmmm... meaning PDZ doesn't?
