Another Ourcolony Pic, But This Time A Screenshot!

[saintdragon]

the pic isnt all that special but not crap either....

though i think that it will come out with games that will amaze us like the ps2... remember red faction 1??? well there like half the graphics the ps2 can do now, so i guess if thats the first images then the later games will be amazing... i really do think sooo!!!!

and the resolution is sweat!!! might need to go out and buy a high res t.v to see the full potential of the baby...

well thats what i think any way.... :huh:

EDIT: spelling mistakes...

I heard that the next XBOX etc wont be a huge graphical leap but the key is supporting much higher resolutions. Which, at the moment, means FA to me as I still play games on an old, albeit huge, tv.

It looks pretty nice but nothing that 3dmark2005 hasn't been showing off for months now. Actually I'd wager that Far Cry looks better and that game's a year old.

​

not for me! once you play in high rez you'll hate standard definition. with the xbox 360, i hear all games will have a minimum of 720p, which should ensure all games look clean and clear.
but yeah, you're right, don't expect a huge graphical leap

edit:
farcry doesn't look too good, and the xbox 2's gpu/cpu power should rival a really high end pc
hl2 looks better

​

That should be 640X480, that's what normal TVs are. Do we even have HDTV in Britain? Hi def's gonna make GFX better how? 640X480 is fine, for instance does normal television look pixelated? I rest my case.

 

[markusdragon]

That's the one. I was thinking of the GP screen again, wasn't I?

And no. Europe doesn't have a HDTV standard, ergo no HDTV.

​

It is not just the resolution that gives HD its better look. It is also the scan rate (progressive scan) which is DOUBLE the current one. This eliminates that annoying interlace flicker of a normal telly. Especially you blokes in the UK that have the PAL standard which is only 50 HZ, which is even flickerier that the 60 Hz US images. I remember using PAL mode on my Amiga for UK games. It had more resolution but more flicker too. The HDTV will have no visible flicker.

 

[markusdragon]

I haven't noticed a TV flicker in years though >_<

 

[junker]

you're kidding, right? when you play at a higher resolution the graphics ARE better(higher rez textures and less jaggies).

 

[markusdragon]

true. but having never been able to see this on a TV, i don't give a crap.

Here's another pic from our colony. Looks like some xbox360 online profile thing.
