Could some explain

Ok look at this first pic, amazing looks so real best graphics of any game

Now look at this one, jaggies everywhere, it looks exactly like gt3 which ain't a bad thing because gt3 is the most realistic looking racer out

Shouldn't the second pic look as real as the first one or is that in early development?

its maybe that the pic was took with a bad camera..

i think that course in the first pic is still in development

Look how amazing this one looks and this one is old

The one with the LMP has to be in early development because those cars should look this real but I know they will look amazing.

The "better looking" pics are renders done on a very, very powerful computer. The "bad looking" pics are on the PS2.

So let's hope that "playing" (in movement) they will look a little bit better (that of course will be)

whats the web address for that Game Watch icon on the pics?

oops

its not there!

all of those pix are amazing. that track in the first one looks great...looks like a small town in italy

i think that track in the first pic is Grindelwald from GT2

I don't think so man, if you check out some vids you see everything looks the same and looks just as detailed as that pic with the Skyliner.

hello?

I agree.

The PS2 pics will be direct screen captures to a PC & therefore will look more pixelated as all PS1 games do on PC if you run em on an emulator with their native resolution. (I.e. 320*200 on a lot)

It'd look better on a TV (More like the renders) as TV's are grainy rather than pixelated.

i think the track in the first pic is Grindelwald. What do you guys think?

Could be, not sure but I want to race on it

i cant believe how realistic that 1st picture is. its incredible!!

So I just this replay shot is being ran on a pc, I'm not sure

But I'm sure gt4 will look exaclty like that, was gt3 ran on a pc?

Check out these vids amazing
Everything is super detailed, these movies came out 2 days ago, I think everyone has already seen them but I can hardly tell if it's videogame or real life.

on the PS2 it should hopefully look like that thanks to the fact TV's portray lower resolution images well.

But for direct-port screens they will look like the 2nd pic in the 1st post I'd expect

I find it particually noticable on my old GT2 magazine reviews with loads of extremely pixelated screenies, and although GT2 was pixelated it was never as bad as it looked in the magazines on the PSX.

I'd be weary of those super high res pics though, the PS2 isn't that powerful.

/I'll check out them vids

You haven't seen them? After seeing those vids you will see everything looks the same and is as detailed as the pic of the skyline.

Also check this one out omg
The ps2 is powerful enough to make those kinds of graphics, don't for get, gt3 didn't even use 25% of the ps2s power.

I'm d/l it's soo slow

the server seems to be in Korea i think

Yea, I know I got some on my pc, if you got AOL IM I could send to you faster if you got cable

I have a slow DSL

thanx anyway

Well they look very good undoubtably but from the quality of the vid you can't really tell whether the quality is as clear as pic 1, which I doubt it could be. But it'll look great nonetheless (I got the vids @ 25k/s btw, not too bad)

I'm pretty certain GT3 used more than 25% of the power, I reckon 100% infact. But, they can probably optimise it a lot more to make it look a bit better than GT3, which did already look great & sometimes photorealisitc.

God I want GT4 dammit, so bored of GT3.

PD has already stated that gt3 olny used about 25% of the ps2 power.

Yeah I thought it was GT2 that used 100% of the consoles power (PSone)

Yeah they also said GT1 only used 75% of the PS1's power, what a load of crap, GT2 may of had a little extra detail but the framerate wasnt as high & the draw distance was like cut in half!

If GT3 only used 25% of the PS2's power, why didn't they stick 20 cars on the track? Put the game in a stupidly high resolution? Why wasn't Monza (The best looking track) available in 2 player mode?

GT3 only using 25% of the power of a 300mhz console, is bollocks.

Otherwise it could have practically run on PSX hardware

If GT3 only used 25% the power, GT4 has no excuse to but to look real. Oh yeah, they also said they had difficulties improving on GT3 because of hardware limitations....
