Sony's previous stuff was better than this. Also dodgy framrate. I actually think the PS2 could have done this. As it's not ingame. The processor would have to work hard at this at all.

 yes, it is in game. using an engine means that you could interact with it if you wanted to. If its not that, all it is is a video, and the ps1 could have played it.

 

think about it, if its not using in game stuff, its just a video that you play. i mean look at the cutscenes in FF7 for ps1.

a tech demo means its IN GAME and if it was a game, that would be its graphics.

 You are completely wrong. As others have mentioned already. Every object in this video is on a pre determined path. There is no physics engine. Yes it's built using real world Poly's and textures and so on. But the processor is not running the following.....AI, Physics, Remap(essentually cause and effect) Player input. Change in sound effects(player caused) Immediate change in Poly count( say spinning the camera 360 degrees like a player would.) The list goes on. IT's a Pre determined Video nothing more.

 Um, you can use an engine to play a video.

yeah wii can do better

 Since when do wii fanboys care about physics or graphics, art style is everything aint it.

The thing does feature a cool style.

it was nice vid. reminds me of japanise manga. something like the recycle movie or the final fantasy movie. if those graphics are ingame then thats impressive

For those who don't know how tech demo looks like

Cutscenes which this are clearly pointless my £9.99 DVD player can handle this cut scene if i burn it on a DVD i would hope any console from PS! up could also handle it which im sure they could as its just animated with no interaction they just need the ability to play media to showcase this.

As twesterm said, these objects seem to be following a predetermined path, and they're not interacting which doesn't seem to indicate heavy physics calculations.

I'm sorry that you can't take my statement (and this demo) for what it is, but that's clearly not my problem. If you have something to contribute to the thread besides the usual bickering, we're here to listen.
