odium, if you want your games to have good graphics, play them on a pc.

I can imagine myself not having any fun, at all, playing this game.

Oh, and the graphics do look hideous.

Man I can't wait until the PS3 comes out so all this guesswork will finally come to an end.

I mean, have you played NFSU2 on a PS2?
Those shots are next gen mate. i.e. 360 and PS3 shots. IGN has a bit preview of it.

If they were PS2 shots i would be saying "ok, dont like the style as such, but for a PS2 game it looks good".
Read much?

You said "When will EA stop making games for PS2 and porting them to everything else... " and I said "Er, that looks way better than the previous NFS games...".

Boy....that second screenshot looks soooooo bad. There's definitely not a graphics upgrade there. :dork:

I'm going to be playing it on high res on a 20" widescreen on my PC, so I'm pretty sure it's going to look great to me.

If it looks even marginally better than NFS:MW I'll be completely happy with it.

Yeah, there's a very visible misaligned section in the rock face.

You can't expect every console game to have high resolution textures, it just won't happen for quite some time. If this was a PC Only title, then I'd say sure, this doesn't look that fantastic, but it doesn't look really shite :)

On a side note, I too did enjoy most wanted, and I quite look forward to getting this too. Be nice if it came out on the wii as well :D

Actually, memory on consoles plays a different way compared to memory on a PC.

Look at Doom 3 on the xbox. 64meg of ram. Do you REALLY think that a PC with the spec of an xbox could handle that game?

Developing for a single platform can have a lot of GOOD results.
You'd think I'd obviously know console memory is different to pc memory right? :)

You actually made a good point about Doom 3 on the xbox, it was VERY VERY low resolution due to memory limitation :)

also, a console doesnt have to run an os with gazillion drivers, shells, services and whatnot in the background :icon32:

Either way I think this on the 360 will be much better. The demos pretty cool too.

good boy, using Underground 2 shots to compare with, handily ignoring Most Wanted which looks about the same as Carbon. :icon27:
