[Wario64]

wtf is up with the last pic?

 

[Reilly]

did they mention why the ground looks like shit?

 

[PhatSaqs]

kameo looks good.

 

[op_ivy]

no shadows at all? hope that gets added...

 

[Blimblim]

did they mention why the ground looks like shit?

Cause they want this game to be as successful as the next Zelda.

 

[olimario]

Kameo is casting a shadow.

 

[Mama Smurf]

The fat guy character seems a bit out of place.

 

[Jonnyram]

no shadows at all? hope that gets added...

We must be looking at different pictures!
1st pic, guy has a shadow covering half of his face.
Other pics, trees are casting crazy shadows and there's a shadow of that chair on one pic too.

 

[DECK'ARD]

Is that Velocity Girl?

i didnt see any underneath the characters... but i see kameo's now

 

[Ruzbeh]

The ground looks like molten chocolate.

Scenery casts shadows (more or less) but Kameo doesn't. Look at her feet - there's no shadow.

Anyway, looks like it might be fun, like a good old RARE platformer.

 

[..pakbeka..]

I see the character designer is the same from the banjo games :lol

The ground looks like molten chocolate.

isn't that the texture from the great mighty poo?

 

[StephaneC]

shit ... when I see this game I want Xbox 360 : /

 

[Mama Smurf]

The video clearly shows Kameo has a shadow in that scene.

 

[Kunai]

From 360 presentation:

 

[Dr_Cogent]

Does this look next gen to you?

 

[Geek]

It's there. Keep checking. Keep in mind her feet aren't touching the ground in one shot.

 

[OptimusPrime]

Ahh people want real black shadows, like in the old days a big black blob. :lol

People we are talking realtime shadows here, most are soft shadows. Look at kameo's face you clearly can see that half of the face(that is facing us) has a soft shadow, also the creature. Even the grass has shadow, seems like it's dynamic shadowing and lightning.

But most of you wouldn't see it...

 

[Blimblim]

The game as it is is obviously lacking in the lighting and shadowing department. I hope it will be corrected/added before release.

er, no. speaking for only myself, it didnt look like any character was casting a shadow on the ground. in both pics with kameo, her shadow is mostly obscured, and not immediately obvious. being that the game is still a work in progress, i just figured that wasnt added yet.

 

[ToyMachine228]

Graphically, it's much more impressive than Rare's other Xbox 360 game, Perfect Dark Zero, but I'm still looking forward to PDZ more. I like the way the universe in Kameo looks, but I'm not sure if it's going to be the game I want to play when it comes out this fall.

this is rare, so that would probably delay the game for at least 3 months

 

[krypt0nian]

After watching Blim's high rez version of the presentation......hell yes.

DoA4 has problems with shadow and lighting too. I thought the X360 GPU was supposed to make this process easy. What gives?

I don't think this is a hardware problem. Saint's Row has some very impressive shadowing and it runs ok (I guess) on Xbox 360.
Lighting and shadowing has always been a big problem for Team Ninja. Rare has proven that they could do some awesome shadowing and lighting with Conker, so I admit I don't understand how Kameo can't look better...

 

[ejdonk]

I think it's looking good enough not to bitch about it.

 

[Izzy]

A bit low on the poly side, but looks good to me.

 

[op_ivy]

I think it's looking good enough not to bitch about it.

junior member, eh? this forum bitches about next-gen def jam's graphics. they bitch about pgr3's trackside textures.

 

[madara]

Gorgeous colors, gives me hope for BK1 remake or BK3.

 

[ejdonk]

Well, I won't.. guess that stuff is looking alright.

 

[olimario]

Missed a good one

 

[Jeff-DSA]

I love the colors.

ATi has a way of getting rich colors displayed in a way that nVidia hasn't yet. It's VERY evident this generation when looking at the GameCube games, they are always so rich and vibrant.

All of the characters are casting shadows, including Kameo

 

[TheJollyCorner]

damn.... I need a 20ft HD TV! *fat guy not included*

Err, no.

It depends on the game, obviously. There is no technical reason for what you are saying.

 

[bill0527]

That's it.

I'm getting this damn game on launch day.

Fuck the haterz

 

[dammitmattt]

I don't like the clear straight lines of grass along the pathway. It looks very unnatural.

 

[Ranger X]

Velocity Girl looks real for a girl that doesn't exist!

 

[dorio]

I don't like the fact that these screens of Kameo and PGR3 are making me want my xbox badge back. I guess its not the developer's fault that they work for such a clueless company.

 

[jett]

Kameo IS casting a shadow. You can easily in the second pic. Not so much in the first one because she's in the air(either running or during a jump), but it's there, sort of behind her. This game looks nice to me.

 

[..pakbeka..]

I can't tell which one is the girl

 

[SyNapSe]

shit ... when I see this game I want Xbox 360 : /

Me too. It's the only game that really jumps out at me.. seems like a lot of other people don't like it.

 

[sangreal]

I think Kameo has the potential to be a sleeper hit.

I was kind of dissapointed by this demo because the combat seemed pretty weak, but opy_ivy played it and said the combat was great.

 

[Zer0]

looks better than the other stills

 

[djtiesto]

Velocity Girl looks real for a girl that doesn't exist!

I thought that was an image of how FF would look on the Xbox 360
