It's not that much worse in my opinion... Eurogamer and others compared it. I don't even think that the E3 2012 looked as impressive as everyone says... Some parts during the rain at night were as shiny as games with cartoony graphics. I don't like that in games with realistic graphics. |
Comparing to the E3 demos:
What is good:
- Games looks awesome with rain. They toned down the reflexes and achieved a pretty realistic look but keeping that impressive look.
- Reflexes in general are pretty good (the water ones).
- Shadows are good.
- Lightning is good.
What is worse:
- Textures are pretty bad.
- Reflexes on metal and glass are bad.
- Car models are terrible.
Of course, when I say "good", it's simple and plain "good", not equivalent to top 8th gen graphics and in the same level than late 7th open world games. From a visual standpoint, GTA V (as an example of a late 7th gen sandbox) wins in some aspects and lose in others.
