Vision Game Engine image

This must have been the engine they slipped in Namco's drink while they were developing FCK and Love Soccer for X360.
 
I don't think it deserves the hate you guys are getting. Looks as good as Oblivion easily and seems to be the same game-setting (I know its just a demo picture), so if its an example of a huge RPG or even the MMO I'm impressed. A bit plasticy, but thats an art issue (or should be).

I'm mildly interested now in seeing what they present at GDC, but theres really only one engine I really am excited about (Naughty Dog's).

Looks as good as Obliviion?When, where, how? :smile:
 
You know, I always thought that lighting was supposed to show off more detail and make the game more immersive. But then I see a game like this and my mind completely implodes. Dammit!

Easily as good. Especially compared to the newer screens (without the IQ cleaned to hell of the early ones). Not that Oblivion is a real looker, except when accounting for scope...people give it alot more credit than it deserves.

....actually Vision Game Engine wins easily...its not even close. At least not to the last 50-odd screens of Oblivion I just sifted through; nothing compared :p

Nonsense. Things that are not shiny shouldn't be shiny.

You know what's really cool in games, when they use more than ten different textures....

....yeah, huh?
 
Okay I think that you guys are being just a little to harsh on this engine at the moment. Yes it definitly needs work but it' could be alot worse.

It's the artist's fault mostly.

No seriously how do you really feel about that screenshot?

If I were just joining this thread and didn't know the names of engines, I would of thought the first screenshot was the Vision game engine. I prefer that screenshot by far.

Of course it's not to say that the engine in the second screenshot isn't better than the first. Just that the art direction in the first is much superior.

art direction > technical features and effects

Is this the engine used for 5th Phantom Saga? :p

Well at least the walls don't look like jelly.

ROG27, I think FCK uses UE3 lol
 
don't know, but maybe both teams have this one thing in common. they think that more in-your-face effects equals better

*shudder*
 
I'm still not convinced. although it doesn't look quite as bad (probably because the character is hard to see) there's nothing in that screenshot that looks next-gen to me. also, the stone still looks like shiny aluminum foil
