I especially love how the reflections aren't even close to matching up.

it's a pity, but it's a huge improvement.

So is this one of those racing games where you spend most of your time six inches away from the front bumper of your vehicle staring at the pretty bump-mapped reflection?

Why are you asking me? I'm just surprised it made such a big improvement.

Huh?? I don't see anything wrong with the reflections...

gate & river

 

[rounin]

these aren't full res screenshots so the actual quality can't really be seen I think. For all we know it could be jagilicious w/ low res textures.

gate & river

I see it now, nvm.

Ignoring the quadragillion x AA, there almost appears to be some sharpening in those shots. Esp no. 3.

Anyone else notice that latly that lots of PS3 shots are comming out in 1024x576?

Surely they wouldn't be rendering to this format and scaling up ala PGR3..

not sure the AA is really that extreme, maybe 2xAA or 4xAA, couple that with the downscaled screens I'm not surprised the AA looks almost perfect.

nintenho didnt quite post all the images, there seems to be some alaising shown on the others.

these for example

havent really noticed the 1024x576 shots either, infact quite the opposite if you go to some sites you see 720 and 1080 res shots, virtua tennis 3 is an example of this. other sites seem to downscale the PR shots released.

Surely they wouldn't be rendering to this format and scaling up ala PGR3..

doubtful, there have been 720p res shots of the game before. I think we are getting ahead of ourselves guys.

 

[scooby_dooby]

game looks sweet bottom line, very nice

 

[Shifty Geezer]

That's a considerable improvement on what we've been shown so far. I wonder how much difference the MotorStorm Blur makes?

IGN has 720p screens:

Anyway, it's looking really great, has come along in a big way. Will be interesting to see video and/or how it plays at TGS.

Well..it is looking good but not great or anything IMO.

I don't like the ship design a whole lot, though it's passable, but otherwise I'm quite impressed technically. There was a time when people considered it to be average at best, but it seems to belatedly be putting UE3 to good use.

Yeah, it certainly has come a long way. Even when taking into account the amount promotion AA, it still looks very fine.

Looks like all they have done is add'd motion blur.
