Batman: Arkham Knight [PS4,XO]

Oh no the tessellation monster again

Sorry but those models look amazing cause they're chuck full of good old fashion polygons.

Could be, but frankly some of these curves are freaking hard to do the old fashioned way. Tessellation has a higher probability of being the cause of that, especially with the series history of using it on main characters in previous games.

Which curves? The last model pic looks quite angular to me. Maybe the helmet is round enough, but that's still likely to be polys... Not that it matters, looks amazing either way.

Batcup.

Batteabag?

So that's why Deathstroke wears a mask.

Which curves?

Helmets, shoulder caps,faces, ears, wheels of batmobile (displacement maps?) and even some of the statues and the big clock on the clock tower. (pictures are on the previous page)

You are a bad, bad person

BTW, how much longer will we have to wait for them to create a coop-focused game with Batman? Such a wasted opportunity. They could easily enable Bats and Batwoman to roam Gotham together.

Giantbomb crew saw the GDC demo of Arkham Knight [beefy PC], they described it as best looking game they ever saw. Car gameplay sounds great.

Just tell me the specs I need for 1080p60.

Btw, I guess some folks noticed, but these two earlier images seem to have native-res aliasing. The rest look supersampled.

An arm and a leg, probably

Some new in-game pictures: including some for the batmobile, it must be the highest detailed vehicle I have ever seen in a game.

- Batmobile is designed to be "the best car in any game ever", it takes up around 160mb of memory in game and will just about fit in an Xbox 360 (if that was the whole game). There are hundreds of thousands of polygons, as well as textures and shaders used on it

Yeah, Batmobile sure does look detailed and menacing.

 

[Wynix]

Looking at the Batmobile pic i can see the overuse of lensflares and DoF, it ruins the great looking car.

In-game trailer! WOW!

 

[ultragpu]

OMFG this footage can't really be on PS4 can it?! I didn't think this game can look so nextgen like this, dear god...E3 came early.

That's what you get when you build and optimize a game for next-gen only without the constraints of old consoles.

Judging by the amount of aliasing in that trailer... yes it can.

Man I can definitely live with that if it looks this good, hell I can live with it even if it's 900p . Something about night time, rainy street and a big bad bat really blend well for my taste.
