I'll be the first to say this ... but if they can do a 50 person multiplayer games, that have coherent objectives, variety of playmodes and good weapon balance .. sign me up. Fuck graphics.

I kinda doubt any of Halo 2's multiplayer maps have over 300,000 polygons in their geometry.Quote:
100,000 ~ 300,000 for "backgrounds?" That sounds really low to me... like original Xbox kind of numbers.
Anyway.
This looks like it's been a pretty bad debut. Gears of War looked great, as did PGR3, but Christ, apparently most of this stuff isn't even off finished hardware. I can't wrap my head around some of this shit.
I just can't imagine that with the console launching in 5 months that a developer like rare doesn't have finished hardware yetQuote:

Im sorry i just cant swallow that
and if they do have finished hardware then why are you taking shots and videos of games running on lesser unfinished stuff to show off for your premier it just doesnt make sense to me
I have done some more looking and I take back what I said .. fuck this. This is EPIC proportion bad.
This next jump in hardware was supposed to be a quantam leap. Like going from the SNES to PS1. No game that has had this much development, money and hype should look this bad ... ever.
I think back to that time, and looking at BAT and Demolition Derby made my jaw drop. Now my jaw drops for a different reason.
Yep. That's all I could think about when I watched it on TV too.Quote:

Mircrosoft= heading for a big floppy cock of a launch.
Differently colored faceplates isn't going to save it.
I think they'll up the graphics just a bit before release. I think Rares main problem is that they need to get their hands on a decent character designer (oh, and they're also shit).
Looks like Toy Story.

I swear I heard during that queer Rare interview on the MTV show that the character models only have 5,000 polys. WTF!?
Laugh out loud at THIS game. Regardless, I'll still buy it.
To bad it looks like shit. Halo 2 > PD0
