How can these be from Xbox version when they are full HD? Is this game supposed to run in native 1080p which Xbox can't pull of?

They are bulletshots and most likely from either PC version or just renders (doesn't matter which engine, they won't run at this quality anyway).


Just so you know, the 360 can do native 1080p. It's up to the dev if they can do that with their engine. It's probably an upscaled image though. As Crytek have said it will probably be 720p on 360 and PS3.

Just so you know, it cannot do native 1080p

Perfect Dark is only 720p Yeah.... its not 1080p and the 360 cant do 60 fps either.

 

 

 

actually the 360 can do 1080p and 60fps and even do it at the same time just not while doing anything to complicated in fact you could probably get it to do 120+fps by gust getting it to draw a white screen. there are 6 games confirmed to run at 1080p native
[native 1080p] Wolf of the Battlefield Commando 3 [Xbox Live Arcade]
[native 1080p] Feeding Frenzy 2 [Xbox Live Arcade]
[native 1080p] Portal [Xbox Live Arcade]
[native 1080p] Boogie Bunnies [Xbox Live Arcade]
[native 1080p] Street Home Court
[native 1080p] Virtual Tennis 3
and games have been running at 60FPS since

OT: if they are X360 shots the PC version must be AMAZING.

Wow. This has to be the first time people have gone this crazy over a set of screen shots. When did we ever care about these things before there was any gameplay footage? I know I haven't. Most pre-vid photos are just quick concoctions of how a dev wants his game to look and, therefore, will almost always look better than the final product. I think just about anyone with a brain knows that. That's why we say, "Oh that's awesome looking, but let's see some gameplay." So, none of these shots mean anything until we see how it looks in the actual game. I mean how many of you guys play games with the "old school point and click" option enabled? I don't.

And really, which system has been claiming graphics king over and over again? Pretty much outdoing itself with little competition. That's right, the PS3. And it's about to do it again with GOW3. Now, before you go off on some rant, I'm not saying 360 games look like crap. Trust me, I know they don't. I'm just saying they are good, but none have been blowing the gaming sites' collective minds like UC2 or KZ2 have. And though many have praised Alan Wake (and I think it looks pretty good, too), it hasn't blown me away in terms of graphics. Especially since I haven't seen a vid yet with more than 2 or 3 people on screen at once.

Oh and selnor, where's that MGS4 for 360? You had my hopes up for that thing. J/K.

Actually thats the PC.



Do you know what its like to live on the far side of Uranus?

So I take it this is no longer valid?

Was posted in 29. 8. 2009, so I'm not sure if there has been an update or not. Will gladly update my knowledge. Thanks!

The guy is talking out his arse.

There is 6 360 games native 1920x1080.

PS3 also has less than 10 games 1920x1080 native I believe. Even GT5P is native 1280x1080.

Vitua Tennis 3 was out long before this video you posted was made.

your site that you point to XBOX360's number ogf game's also has one for the PS3 

an the Site list's the PS3's native resolution 1080p game's number  is at 26

http://www.makeyougohmm.com/ps3-1080p-games/

Ah but read the the explainations. The 360 ones he states are all confirmed by 3rd parties like DF, Beyond 3d etc. Whereas he states that he thinks Sony does not put 1080p on the box unless it's native 1080p. Well that theory falls at GT5P which is not native 1920x1080, but 1280x1080 instead. No 3rd party confirms his PS3 claims which he openly admits.

wrong again leo.. keep up the good work.

well it does depend on the xbox360 though..

that is all xbox360's are equiped with HDMi now anyway...

Every 360 made since 2006 Xmas has HDMI. So, theres a very small amount of non HDMI consoles out there ( probably RROD anyway ). Also how badly will some Sony fans try and say PS3 is superior ( because of Sony talk before release ). @ Leo not Joerc.

@ Thismeintel.

Glad to know youve played Alan Wake to say previews are wrong. Is it a long game? What would you score it? Plot good?

And that MGS4 prediction was like 2 years ago.

@ twisted pixel

I was speaking merely between the home consoles. Sorry, should have been more specific.

@selnor

LOL! I know it was ~2 years old. But, you have to admit its pretty hilarious. You betting your house and all. Besides, I was just teasing you. And no I haven't played Alan Wake, no one has. I only am going by the vids that have been shown. But, hey, you're just going by pre-vid pics to say Crysis 2 going to look that good on the 360, so I have to say I'm pretty safe in my assumptions.

As for Cevat Yerli and the whole CryEngine 3 discussion going on, he says both consoles have advantages and disadvantages at different times. Why is it that people try so hard to say one is more powerful than the other? Especially in the case of the PS3..?

Probably because Crysis 2 sets the console graphics bar and obviously with the 360 version of multi-platform games usually performing better, that just means 360 = graphics bar, which basically undermines the "PS3 is moar teh powar" rhetoric entirely.

I'll post it again because it was conveniently ignored the first time but several of the images are not in 1080p, they are in 2130p i.e. four times the resolution of any game ever on the 360 or PS3 (from the link Selnor provided)

This means at least some of the images are bullshots, or at the very least have to be running on Satan's own PC. If some of the images of from PC, up scaled or otherwise photoshopped then you have to the question the legitimacy of the claims that any the screens are taken from the 360 build.

Their resolution is no indication of the source build. These are press shots, which means they're resolution is higher (for magazine layouts) and AA up the wazoo. This is no different then a million other previews.

Sure, but it means they've been through photo editing software, it makes the whole 1080p vs 720p debate for 360 kinda pointless and makes determination of the screens' source from the screen quality, impossible.
