Apparantly, cutscene graphics >>>> ingame graphics. SH3 looks about SH2 level with better lighting.
Cant say im surprised here.

What else is there to improve? It has better lighting and shadowing, better textures (with multitexture effects), better looking effects (fog is actually lit by your light now...) And, cutscene graphics will always be better than ingame graphics, if nothing because you get to see closeup faces and facial animation.

Why wonder? Do you get some sort of reward for accurately proclaiming the "end of the line" for a certain hardware? It is what it is.
Geez, the compulsion to gravitate toward the negative so you can finally dismiss a certain "older" console system as a significant participant in the group of current generation consoles is bit tired. The competitor platforms must truly be feeble if the only way to acknowledge them is to ceaselessly denigrate the dominant platform.

I guess wondering is not allowed. I guess i can't wonder if its going to be hot outside. Can't wonder if bladerunner will be on today. Can't wonder if i'm going to hook up at the party tonight. Can't wondering if soul caliber 2 maxes out the gamecube or if this game maxes out the ps2. Didn't know wondering wasn't allowed. Thanks for filling me in on rule .
I downloaded a SH3 clip (TGS?)......Do FMVs/Cut scenes and gameplay share the same engine??
I would like to see Parasite Eve3 without that RPG styled battle system with spells etc....in Dini Crisis mould!!!!
Any new about Parasite Eve3....?? Is there any plan for it??

What's interesting is that there is a guy in that thread that chap linked to who actually played the two games side-by-side and there was very little difference between the two... only improved lighting in SH3 stood out.

I don't think you should completely ignore it either. They say the cutscenes look really great, but when you're actually playing the game it doesn't look much different than SH2.
I think you're expecting too much if you think you're going to get an image that looks as good as the screens captured from the PS2 dev kit or a PC, or whatever.

Well, Indoors it's likely the difference might not be much... but outdoors just by looking at the screens you can see it's quite a big improvement.

Yeah sure, of course you have these "random" wonderings. If it were just random wonderings by you (which I don't oppose at all), I wouldn't be making my post here, would I? After seeing a variety of your posts as of late, it is clear your "wonder" about anything Sony is far from random. You aren't fooling anyone (anymore). Your agenda is quite apparent. You may be more subtle and explanatory than ole Chap, but in the end, the agenda is the same, and so it comes off as similarly annoying- no matter how good something comes out, there is always a negative aspect to dwell on. Wouldn't it be nice if people could just come here w/o an agenda (or claim it and really mean it) and just talk eye-to-eye with people?... You would think people could be more enlightened at a forum such as this, but when it comes down to being polarized on an issue, people sometimes do no better than the 12 yr olds you find on the IGN Vestibule (for example).

Yes. Cutscenes have higher poly models, though (ingame you never get to see them upclose, anyways)
Oh, trust me... For that guy, if it's not made by Sony Europe, it's trash. He's weird like that, and wouldn't accept a Japanese game looks better than a SCEE game, for the love of him.
There are very obvious improvements from SH2 to SH3, it's clear even from videos.

You should watch your little digs against me. If you actually read my prior posts you will see that when i have something to say negative or positive about something I allways post it and i don't back down from my opinion. My opinion based on screens is that this is a good looking game. I wonder though due to the amount of lights and effects used coupled with the amount of polygons and textures pushed if this is the limit of what the ps2 can do. I also said the same about zoe2. My agenda is easy to see . If i wanted to bad mouth the ps2 i would just bad mouth it. But since i have no problems with the ps2 and i do enjoy some games on it i don't bash it.

Yes, of course you are "perfectly objective" and are capable of giving the positive and the negative. That boilerplate disclaimer pops up a lot. It just always "happens" to end up being negative or positive with a veiled negative. We hear that over and over. It was plausible the 1st or 2nd time you offered that explanation, but now it just isn't washing anymore. Sorry to tell you. You may disagree to the very end. You can adamantly proclaim you are utterly neutral in the big scheme of things, but doing so won't make it true if it isn't. That's just the way things work.

I never said i was netrual i'm just not so bias that i can't admit when a game is good. I give props to many Playstation 2 and 1 games. I have admitted to to time constraints at school i only have my gamecube with me (mostly for smash brothers drinking games and my ex gf) . I have admitted that i favor sega more than the other companys.
Now randy what are your bias's and don't tell me u don't have them because everyone has them .

This isn't about me. It is about you. I don't seem to have a problem endlessly trashing (or subtly "leveling down") xyz console/games day after day. It's a different mindset than you altogether. It doesn't even matter if you care to acknowledge it or not. Just don't say no one ever warned you. What you do with that bit of constructive criticism is your own business, and I'm certainly not going to lose any sleep over making you believe it.
