| HappySqurriel said: Just because they state that it is realtime doesn't mean that you should expect graphics like this in game for quite a while. If you take a Tripple Geforce 8800GTX set up and run a demo which has a lot of the clipping and culling pre-computed, which has no noticeable AI, and with the "physics" being animation, and rendering at 720p @30fps, you should be able to approximate the graphics the PS4 will produce. |
That doesn't mean that its for sure what they did though either.
Really people put way way too much thought into this. It looks great, they said it was real-time ...case closed. Maybe there isn't AI to worry about and they did it on a beefy rig...but does that really matter? At the end of the day its still an impressive tech demo and a great show of what to expect soon.
I guess what I'm saying is that its a little too cliche for me to believe they sat around and discussed the best way to decieve people and make it look far better than it actually is....particularly when this demo comes from a show where they are selling this technology to other industry experts who are going to quickly pick up on shortcomings that were promised as more then they are and ultimately hurt their ability to sell the engine far more than it will help it.
