Just when Consoles graphics were amazing.....

You know what the funniest thing is. People are bringing up budget, time and projects (in another thread) and that will ALWAYS be a factor...so theres NO way you can objectivley look at images or videos...simply because the budget, time and projects factor. What Kojima or Cliffy have done are not definitive of the technology their using. So theirs no point to bring up Xenos or RSX in this post...unless the post is called "lets talk about Xenos or RSX" everything else would be off topic. Also...which has been stated time and time again...Art direction is a major factor. Even if the game is a technological feat...if it look like ass..no one will like it. Varying tastes muddles it up a little more.
I don't think the moderator of that forum wants this thread there any more than you want it here. I don't even understand the point of it, what exactly is it you want to say with it?onetimeposter said:
While DX10 adds extended possibilities over DX9, rest assured that the fixed hardware nature of consoles will enable developers to fake most anything you can do with DX10 anyway, saying "this can't be done on consoles!" seems more than a bit premature to me.
I actually would love to see something like this in the next Jak & Daxter game from Naughty Dog. The previous parts (namely Jak 3) already had the night and day cycle (though very primitive in comparasment of course) and some very nice destructable environments (some platforms broke fairly realistic into l ittle pieces as you jumped onto them). The leaves etc weren't done at all I think, but if they could add something like in MGS3, that would already look quite comparable...
All in all, I pretty much expect the next game from Naughty Dog to be around this kind of level on many accounts.

It's amusing to note, that absolutely none of these things requires DX10 to implement...Phil said:

yes! prettyyy!!
i do agree with the lurker though.
Does look very pretty indeed. Can't find anything on the Crytek website about it though.
Incidentally, what will DX10 offer over DX9/OpenGL 2.0? Anything actually visible or is it all developer friendliness?

That's what i was wondering... I'd bet it's "faster rendering for DX10 boards, with some slight improvements in IQ", much like the SM1-2-3-clap-your-hands mess we've had for quite a while.

If anyone here is interested in DX10 (also referred to as WGF2.0 and DirectX Next) then there's plenty of topics over in the 3D Hardware and Technology forum to browse. Not to mention B3D's own article on the subject

Been through this already. Based on nothing. The guy is a troll and has been banned. Twice.
Now we can either talk about the Crytech engine and keep the thread alive or keep pestering a guy who's no longer here, and get the thread locked.
I know what i'd do.

You should remain silent.
I just got done telling you that Software layering has ZERO graphical impact, other than to REDUCE performance.
And you think that's a good thing? Can you give me one reason why you would want your game to run slower?
Why is a 25-50% loss in performance a good thing to you? I seriously don't understand your logic.
