Just watched a movie again FF:Advent Children, then it suddenly hit me how far we have come and how we are practically playing today what just a few years ago we would have called CG or bullshots. So I made this thread, nd you can join too...

Rules, put a then and now pic of a game from the same franchise. You can use either ingame footage or CG footage for the then pic but the now has to be realtime footage of its current gen iteration.

FF:Advent Children CGI 2005

FF13 CGI 2009

FF15 In Game

Yep. To be fair, FF13, even on the Xbox360 was already beyond gorgeous. FF always shows technical prowess on new hardware. But I fear it will be style over substance all over again =/

Let me join the fun with ALIEN:

ALIEN (Atari)

Alien 3 (NES):

Alien Trilogy (PS1)

Alien Isolation (PS4)

Not quite there, but close enough.

I wonder how big the downgrade will be when they get round to actually getting it to run on the PS4/XBOne. Could be Watch Dogs all over again.

Did 13 have big downgrades?

FF games always look stunning!

Not really, the game was not that good but it was beyond beautiful.

Pictures people!!! Pictures!!! this is a pictography, lets keep the chatter to a minimum!!!

That's what I remember, trying to understand why he things XV is gonna be downgraded.

And some people will still complain.
