Repost + it's only coming out on PC. This "2 Nights to Vegas" or whatever it's called game isn't making it to consoles from what I heard.

K, I stand corrected then. I think Wolf03 said that it wasn't coming out for the new consoles.

EDIT: no proof, I'm still correct for now.

arent those the pc screenshots?

[2ndclasscitizen]

no way they are console shots, the resolution on the background textures is too high, consoles don't do that, the xbox had the capability but they didn't, they definately look like PC shots

Copied my post:
"Recent news at spong confirm that this game (2 Days to Vegas) will ONLY be available for PC - http://news.spong.com/detail/news.asp?prid=8637
Those kind of graphics on a console? HA!!! Keep dreaming. By the time consoles will be able to render those kind of graphics, there will already be virtual-reality games where you strap on a suit and play."

consoles are pretty close to those kinds of graphics jus look at Doom 3

PC 1600x1200 at 50+fps on a midrange PC with 32 bit textures.
2048x1536 is doable on top end machines.

"textures are lower in resolution, and the heat blur from flames seems a bit less impressive, but nearly every other aspect that made “Doom 3” a graphical standard bearer has made it to Microsoft’s console. Several Hell-spawned enemies look identical to their PC counterparts, and even the few that look slightly less detailed are easy to overlook, given the game’s brooding environments"

XBox is about half the resolution and frame rate. ( anyone have a link that can confirm the XBox res for the game ? )

A serious gamer will notice the difference and it's the kind of difference that makes a winner in on-line games as first to see is first to shot

thansk werty, interseting.

So it loks as if it's 720p widescreen so that would be 1280x720 resolution.
That's half of the current PCs.

BUT it says nothing about fill rate or texture size so we can assuem the graphics chip will be doing well on those at the low-ish resolution.

THREE PowerPC chips. It's going to be interesting how these can be utilised.
It might be they use one for comms and I/O, one for mainstream processing and the third for physics in place of the aegis chip ??

Interesting to see how IBM and Intel compete at the processor level with the new Extreme double pipelined, double cored HT chips at 4G ( ie core processor ALU running at an equivalent 16G ops/sec )
