Did you take the screenshots yourself? I don't know what kind of magic PS3 enhancing HD TV you have, but my HD TV doesn't show God of War III looking as AA smooth and crisp as the shots show in this thread. Devs often release what they call "In-Game" screens, and while they were in fact rendered on the console they often have more AA than the actual game will have when you play it. It happens all the time. For example "The Last of Us" is going to be full of jaggies just like all the other games this generation but you wouldn't know by looking at the "In-Game" screens released by Naughty Dog so far. It's what's called "Bullshots" and everybody does it. The internet is full of "in-game" screen shots that look far better than games look when we get to play them. I'm not saying the game looks bad. But this thread is full of bullshots and in some posts flat out CGI. |
Some people don't understand the difference between actual gameplay character models and cut scene character models. With a cut scene the game developer has absolute control of the camera angle and distance with little or no player input so can just cram much more detail into the mix. Also it does depend on your TV and it's settings on how good a game can look. I got plenty of friends who know sweet FA about console settings, tv settings etc. I had one friend who was playing SD resolution on his PS3 on an HD TV until I corrected it. On my TV I got the settings so the games look really contrasty and vibrant with soft motion flow to give the illusion of 60fps. When my friends come round and watch me play they think the same game looks a lot better than on their TV.
