Forums - Sony - New ratchet and clank WILL bring toy story 2 like graphic

WheelStriker said:

Ratchet and Clank A Crack in Time finally brings the graphical quality of pre-rendered CGI to video game consoles. Insomniac's hard work has finally produced CGI quality graphics rendered in real-time on the PlayStation 3. Sure, it might not quite be at Wall-E level yet, but Toy Story 2 quality pre-rendered graphics have definately been reached. Insomniac Games, who have produced more games for the PS3 than any other developer (Resistance 1, Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction, Resistance 2) brings their fourth game, Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time (or what they like to call Clock Blockers) with an even more polished engine. The pre-defined animation and limited scope of the cutscenes mean that Insomniac can pull more out of the PS3 for their real-time rendered cutscenes in A Crack in Time, though the gameplay graphics are just as spectacular. Have a look at the comparison picture below, featuring a new screenshot released by Insomniac and Sony (it may be a super-sampled shot, but that's what you can expect to see in the in-game cutscenes), to see how far video game graphics have come, from a rumoured Sony comment that the PlayStation 2 could produced Toy Story quality graphics, to the reality of Insomniac's work on the PS3.

CGI-Quality!

OT: It's amazing how much they improved on ToD's graphics. Though those screenshots are probably doctored a little (everyone does it).

These images are not good enough!

PS3 fans have moved on to Blu Ray quality animated features, which means 1920/1080! These images are 720P DVD quality images. DVD quality in unacceptable to true PS3 fans. As a true fan of the PS3 im appalled that the game will have to be upscaled on my 53" Bravia.

DVD its not 1280x720p.

DVD is 720x480p.



 

  

Wow, only Toy Story 2 like visuals? That's pretty lame! I expected much much more...

Quality != resolution.



Tease.

Absolutely amazing how far they've come in the past 2 years.

i am pretty sure you know that ;)... but that post up there points otherwise.



I can still spot a few jaggies, but... it definitely looks more impressive than Toy Story.

Please tell me you aren't being serious. I mean, have you watched Toy Story lately? Even the original, much less the sequel.

I mean on a purely eye candy level... obviously not technically (I noted the jaggies).


 



Eye candy meaning what? The fact that everything appears to be made of metal so it can be lit in the same way, how light seems to be coming from every direction there is....

Or the fact that you're comparing a big robotic future landscape to a child's bedroom?
