The PDF specifically mentions Game AI Physics within the PPU and 4 SPE's.

How does the upper lip of the helmet get illuminated then ? I can understand the bottom lip being lit by the goggles, but I wouldn't think it be possible for the upper lip to be lit by them ?

I think it would have been a wee bit difficult on that stage with anything more. As others have stated, GT4's environments are not lacking, especially when compared to other racers.

I don't understand how anyone could not be impressed with KZ. Seriously. People could go into detailed analysis of why it looks so good, but why bother .. will it convert you? will it impress you? If for some reason you are not impressed with the video, how are words going to convince you ...

Why does a game have to necessarily bring something new to be considered a good experience? Resistance/Halo, pretty much any FPS didn't really bring anything new, but it is still a fun experience. They evolved the 'experience' which I'm sure KZ will do as well. And as for Motorstorm. It is...

The GT series offers too much grip. That is the first time I have heard anyone say that and from GT1/2 and using the DFP with 4, I can't say that I've noticed at all. So either I am completely oblivious to it, or someone is completely overstating it ..

Wow, so Nintendo created the advertising paradigm showing a group of people playing a game appearing to have fun ..... I guess all those PS2 singstar ads I saw must have been a dream. <cue someone showing an earlier ad than this>

I disagee, the new 'air' fireball effect looks greatly improved from previous versions. Doesn't have that obvious 'shrinking 2d sprite to give the allusion that it is travelling away from you' effect. The ground based fire looks quite awesome. The game looks amazing. However, I truly...

1-Up Podcast discussed HS Just listening to 1-Up's Podcast where they discuss various aspects of HS. QTE's They comment on the use of QTE's as being lazy. I can't agree with this. I definitely think QTE's have a place in some games. It's basically adding interactivity to what would...

I am playing my PAL version of Motorstorm right now, and I can say that it is definitely employing some form of AA. I know what AA less games are, and Motorstorm is not one of them. As for HDR / Bloom, I think people get too caught up in the technical side of things, because Motorstorm has...

I agree, I think that % can be construed either way, and people are getting hung up on them. I wouldn't go as far as to say that this thread is an accurate measure of that exact % (just checked the % now .. almost 50% ?) , but hopefully there is a general consensus, just from what we have...

I still don't get why people are trying to downplay these statistics. They represent the number of people who have difficulties with their X360, PS3 and Wii on Beyond3d. People say they don't represent the average consumer, so what, they don't need to. They provide equal representation in...

Have you played GT:HD yet ? Coming out of the tunnel there are some nice 'next-gen' lighting effects. I hope we don't get to the stage where games have to have unrealistic levels of bloom/hdr to be considered to have 'next-gen' lighting though. EDIT: Having said that though, I would like to...

It's not just a poll, but a much wider range of 'voices' that are complaining about defect X360's. Do you honestly believe that there isn't a problem, that the failure rate of X360's is normal? If you do believe this, then are you saying that X360 failure rate = normal/average PS3...

I believe the release date is May 3rd in the US. Does anyone know the Euro/Aus release date for CAC ?
