It's not as pretty as I remember... Maybe what I remember was just the fluidness of the motion of the actual gameplay.

I'd tap that.


I remember it looking better...?

[Jon Liu]

Yeah... something about those screens seem just a little bit "last-gen."

Maybe it's the lack of real quality textures... it seems too bland.

I guess it may have been taken from gamepro according to a poster at AVS.

The gamepro ones are smaller in size, but watermarked.
Here's one of the pics. Hence my earlier question, was the Frenchie site uprezzed or the gamepro's images downrezzed. My opinion is that the image looks like it was blown up (similar to what IGN does to their pics). Regardless, it's nothing extraordinary or special (IMHO).

Ahhh, the picture in it's "actual" size does looks better. The colors pop, the definition of the textures and such look more where they should be.

Thanks for posting that Goat.

Jon,
I still agree with your earlier assessment. The colors look betetr in the original, but the textures aren't there. Small details are really lacking (last gen) also. Look at how her leg doesn't have any definition or any distinction from the thigh to the knee. Also look at her hair - a few chunks of red. Hopefully, given the delays on this, it ends up looking better than this.

[Jon Liu]

Yeah, it'll probably get better.
