Looks good

Not bad

Ok

Wall textures are...

Grainy looking

 

[sergio_r]

that actually looks alright, apart from the shot with the beams of light.

 

[PC-Engine]

That hazy effect with the lazers are pretty nice actually

 

[marconelly!]

I think this looks better than most expected it to be (myself included) Porting great looking Xbox games to other platforms has been pretty much disasterous so far, and I've been the last to expect ubi soft to put some real effort into the port.

It's nice that they preserved light bloom effect. The game had a lot of nice looking scenes that used it for a good effect.

 

[alexsok]

Looks nice, although definitely not on par with the XBox version

 

[Teasy]

Are those images scans?

 

[marconelly!]

They are obviously framebuffer shots. You can distinguish every pixel in them. I wish I had a scanner like that

 

[Teasy]

But the first pic is just SO grainy! Which is why I thought it could have been a scan. Although yeah not all of the pics look like scans.

 

[marconelly!]

It's supposed to look like that. That's a night vision gadget in action.

 

[Fafalada]

But the first pic is just SO grainy

That's the night vision filter.

 

[Teasy]

Oh right, I didn't think of that. Although shouldn't night vision be green?

 

[sergio_r]

Oh right, I didn't think of that. Although shouldn't night vision be green?

Nah, i was watching a wildlife program the other day and they were filming in nigh vision and it was in black and white - but grainy

 

[marconelly!]

There are various night vision devices. Some have green picture, some don't.

 

[Crusher]

Oddly enough, in the Splinter Cell PC demo the night vision mode is green on my GeForce 2, but black and white on my roommate's GeForce 4. Don't know why.

 

[Glonk]

I'm impressed, I didn't think they could pull this off.

It'll be more interesting to see the framerate though.

 

[marconelly!]

Well, it's still much worse looking that Silent Hill 3 for example, but I'm pretty surprised nonetheless. Two more screens:

 

[Glonk]

Why did they need to change the UI to look more amateurish?

 

[marconelly!]

UI was pretty amateurish looking to begin with, if you ask me :\

 

[Glonk]

Keyword being "more"...

 

[iscariot]

dare to compare:
