Perfect Dark screen shot ownage

[Acert93]

Questions:

1. Why are these not widescreen 16:9 like almost all of the other media so far?

2. The aliasing.

Pic #2 really feels like a PD game and looks next gen enough for me (some nice shaders and design imo... good enough for me) BUT the above 2 questions make me wonder if this is legit.

Xbox will be 'dead' at the end of the year, near fact.

Not dead, discontinued....and this will prevent xbox 1 owners from wanting/buying new software?

Hence the '.

And yes, when a product's hardware is discontinued it will attract less consumers, less developers, resulting in a general decline of that console's software sales as well, when compared to products that remain supported that is.

Xbox will have massive shortages at the end of the year, Xbox 360 will have shortages since they'll launch it worldwide.

She looks like garbage. Why do companies insist on making their women look like cheap barbie dolls.

- MUCH too narrow waist to be realistic.

- Boobs sits too high up on her chest; she looks deformed. Besides, they're *cough, ahem* a bit on the large side as well...

- And why on earth would a secret agent woman wear a nylon stocking around her stomach area? That's just stupid.

Shot 2 and 4 don't look impressive at all, the other two do look better, but given the discrepancy in quality, I wouldn't be surprised if they were touched up and/or renders. The kind of quality in 2 and 4 are the least I'd expect from the game, but technical qualities aside, I'm not sure if I dig the style...I'd prefer something slightly grittier, more realistic looking. I know it's supposed to be a younger joanna dark, but..

Maybe because

1. Sex sells
2. Their main demographic, especially the early adopter market, are young men who don't have real dates with Barbie dolls so they want to play with them in games
3. It worked for the competition
4. Sex sells

Don't get me wrong, I hate it too. But look at Tomb Raiders... I don't know how many people I have heard in person get excited over a pixelated woman.

If that were not enough, just look at the heat Nintendo takes for their "kiddie" looking games. Even if they have great play mechanics these young men diss on the look. So why not give them games that look they way they want... sad, but I think there is a lot of truth to it.

Maybe I should clarify...I meant it as...literally they are making their models look like plastic dolls. Why not render a HOT, realistic looking woman? I'm a horn dog, but I don't get hot and bothered over something that looks like cheap plastic. They should just use one of them 3d full body laser scanners and hire a gorgeous model to be featured in the game. Now that would be hot.

Man the charachter model in the first shot looks so much better than the old shots. It's a completely different model. Makes me think these are fakes. Anyone remember SSX on the original XBox and how they released fake screens with high quality player models photoshopped in? Same deal.

No that was Amped, but the final game looked exactly like the PS images anyway so it's moot.

Oh... hmmm... sorry then man Looks like they went with the anime look... maybe Sony or a 3rd party will scan some SI Swim suit model for you

Me? I just want a good Mario. That Princess Toadstool, now that is one hot game property

IRT quake2 vs goldeneye...
i think i have to point twards goldeneye as the better looking game. the characters looked better, with photomapped faces and the perfect (at the time) bleeding on clothes. and the environments looked nicer with a bit more variety in color and textures. goldeneye had destructable objects (chairs, crates, computers), bullet holes on walls and wide open environments (with fog of course). netal objects had a metalic env. map, glass had a nifty moch reflection. explosions left a swirling cloud of smoke. i loved quake2, but goldeneye looked better.

perfect dark zero in it's present form looks weak. i'm slightly impressed with the number of characters on screen but they aren't that nice looking. i don't want to repeat what everyone else is saying, but this game really looks like a current gen title more than anything.

on a side note, i keep reading "PDZ" or "PD0" and thinking "panzer dragoon", then i remember it's perfect dark and get depressed.
