Now check this out..

Xbox versus 360..click on link...

http://server5.theim..._vs_Xbox360.jpg

Look at the fire, the ground, walls, the opening that shows whats beyond that room. You cant even see thru the rain on the xbox version to the outside. Not bad for a port I must admit. Not next gen for sure, but but not bad not bad beerchug.gif

Sorry dude, I wish I could see what you are talking about. I love the Xbox 360 thus far, just like you, but I don't see any noticable difference blink.gif

If he can't see a difference then he never will...

Don't even bother buying a PS3 your PS1 will do just fine...

Yeah, the problem is that we often tend to forget how crappy the graphics actually are in Xbox and this is a good reminder that even a slight upgrade in resolution, texture resolution and number of polygons will make a huge difference when seen next to each other.

We all have memories from the past and those memories that we cherish the most, we tend to create conceptions in our minds that are usually better than they actually were in reality. This is called nostalgia, to which all of us must be quilty to some extend. I remember many n64 and PSX games looking much better than they actually are (or how they play) and when I try them later, I feel seriously underwhelmed.

Here's a plausible scenario: many people will get the x360, play for a year and think that the graphics are quite nice, but that x360 wasn't such a big step from original Xbox. Then, in some occasion they try out the original Xbox when visiting a friend or something and have this oh-my-eyes, were Xbox graphics really *this* bad -experience  ph34r.gif

You know, It has happened before.

i agree mostly,apart from your first point.i dont see xbox graphics as 'crappy' but then the only thing ive had to compare with is ps2.i suppose we all have differing opinions,which is why life is so fun pop.gif

Wow... I am speechless...

For all the wrong reasons.

The Xbox 360 version blew me away with how CRAPPY it looks.

Sure it looks way better then the xbox version, but those graphics are hardly anything I would ever oggle at, I mean its not even running AA!

Meh I guess I was expecting to much, you know I thought it would at least surpase the Mad Mod Mike/Luna/Toy Shop demos.

Get a 37" LCD tv and a component cable and 480p games definitely look pretty crappy when compared to the few 720p ones wink.gif

i have seen vids of the ps2 and xbox version and have played the 360 version in person but i didnt even realize the huge jump they have made in graphics until i have seen the comparison shot.  hot damn they did a lot to improve.  whoever cant see the difference is a loon and needs to have their eyes checked.  this game looked gorgeous for a multi-gen port and i cant wait to own it.  at the walmart this is one of the games that drew the crowd and razzle-dazzled them how good the animals looked and moved.  everything from the weatber to how the rocks and fire look took a huge leap beyond what even i imagined.

Im the person that took the xbox screen capture and put the comparison screenshot together. Ive played both the xbox and xbox360 demo of king kong and I must say the 360 version truly looks next gen while the xbox version looks great for an xbox game but looks like crap in comparison.

The only bad thing about next gen is that its gonna cost me about $1000 come 11/22/05. The pics are great. Got any other side by sides!

cross platform will always dissapoint some people but still make others happy. just like a "cross platform" hooker.

this thread is stupid

look at the lighting, quit paying attention to the textures. u think thats possible on the xbox? and keeping a steady framerate at high res?

heh, sure weve seen lighting like this, but only a few lights on shit like splinter cell.. screenshots mean shit anyways, videos are where ull see a huge difference

quit paying attention to the textures? things like that are important. are you brainwashed? theres alot of things the 360 can do that the xbox cant. duh. were looking for what 3-4 years of video game hardware advancement is sopposed to give us, as awsome as the hardware is, compared to some of the other games, some people are just saying, "MEH..."

Well if that were the case, the PS2 wouldn't even exist now.  San Andreas sold like a bajillion copies, and it looks like a piece of dog shit.  But it's fun shit to play with.

Xbox 360 4 life!

(Until the next system)

Well i said some games look great, but the majority just blow.  This isnt due to the xbox's hardware or limitations, but the willingness for devs to put out quality shit.

Its definately the best console out, thats not even argueable.  

Anyway, thats what I meant.

I dont like what I am seeing, looks like a Turok kind of game. The edges need to be more smooth.
