What happened to the graphics?
I think it was orginally 360/PS3. But I guess I kinda expected it to be going the Sony route. IIRC they used some of sony's studios, and plan on using the CGI version of the development for some kind of blu-ray movie. Not to mention the ps3 e3 booth.
Anyways, graphics are certainly great looking (though I might change the character art around a bit), but I'm interested in seeing the gameplay (whenever that will be).
Isnt that from the same thing? except one is direct feed and the other is handy cam video?

You think this looks bad?

Graphics look good to me...anyhow the video which displays that scene seemed to suggest the engine was running at a very steady but low framerate...could be just how slow the main character animates though that makes it look like that.
I wonder if its sped up at all and what is happening with the game in general. I'm guessing that the differences between the PS3 and the X360 motivated the decision for exclusivity (again...it would seem). Maybe they just didn't have the resources to tap both platforms.

You mean the CG?

Thats the same scene from the e3 real time demo, no? Looks the exact same to me except for some major AA work going on. Or maybe some downscaling going on.
It must have been deliberate act to appease the Japanese execs. They made the character look effeminate, following in the footsteps of the FF7 movie, in order to secure funding. If it were on Xbox 360, the character would have Space Marine armour.
btw, the nut cup is um... wth? Cover it up!

It looks pretty good, but not as nice as it was before:

Where do you get that from? These are from the first Wartime trailer when a platform was unspecified, I believe.
The first 2 videos released were CGI wernt they?

I don't think it was ever confirmed, most people assumed it was, but when the name of the engine is "REAL TIME ENGINE 1080" it kinda makes you think they might actually be realtime
If you look at the environment textures the new screens actually look better. Lighting too but it's hard to tell.
There's not as much going on in the scenes though.

I believe this bunch has only shown real time demonstrations. Those pics are from scenes where they go from wire frame to final output over a loop. They've done so with all the vids I've seen of the game.
They would be a fairly brazen bunch to pull such bold hoax's repeatedly. Although I'm not sure I remember them officially saying the vids were real time...it would be hard to deny that this is not what they wanted to public to believe.

Yeah I think thats just the name of the engine name though (odd name for an engine). IIRC the site referenced cgi movies with in-game assets (something similar to halo 3 I would guess), and real time stuff in engine. Two different things I always thought, I'll have to check again.I don't think it was ever confirmed, most people assumed it was, but when the name of the engine is "REAL TIME ENGINE 1080" it kinda makes you think they might actually be realtime
edit:
video of the orginal 2004 trailer when there was no specific platform

I can't imagine that being real time.

According to their website (goto images>RTE 1080 Gallery):
"All images in this gallery are down-sized from the original 1920x1080(HD) output and are 100% in-game assets. They feature DOF (depth of field) but do not show the Camera based Motion Blur."
Edit - I got it now. The original shots are "RTE 1080" showcase shots, while the latest shots are from "Enigma" which is the actual PS3 game. So both are realtime, but the enigma shots are clearly a step below to my eyes anyways.
You can browse the images by going to http://www.wardevil.com/, check out the image gallery. The old shots are under "RTE 1080 Gallery" and the new stuff under "Enigma"

Actually they claimed it was real time. They said that their engine is capable to create CGI quality visuals with effects seen in CGI movies. PR? Well I dont know. In some of their trailers they shocased various development stages of some scenes as they progressed to the final quality which was like CGI
