Title: Why Consoles > PC\'s (this one is for you mm)
Post by: Bobs_Hardware on May 02, 2002, 04:26:42 AM
remember those pictures you posted ol\' buddy showing why TOCA on PC was graphically superior to GT3.. well, they were mock-ups, here are the real things..

what is that the old toca PC game?  i didnt even post toca screens
look again

that is PRO RACE DRIVER
NOT TOCA


dont make me load up aquanox and take some screenies at 1280x1024x32  at 4X FSAA and 8 tap anistropy

consoles simply cannot compete with todays high end GPU\'s

cost aside, that is

and define "mock ups", what do you think they are, 3dmax images?

oh, and here\'s another shot to help to ease the pain

Pro Race Driver, ahhh, you lied to me Fastson!

im just a puppet mm, Fastson is the true evil behind this post..

but i was just posting it as a joke, feel free to post your pics when you get home  :)

and those pro race driver pics look exactly the same quality as the Toca pics that were released (click the link i posted it shows them) anyway.. guess we\'ll have to wait and see then

huh, you both mean the same game. It\'s called TOCA Pro Race Driver - and the screens that Bob posted reflect the graphics of that downloadable demo.

*looks at screens again*

buahahahahahhahahawwwww!!!!!!!!!!!! :D


mm,

I\'d be still quite interested to see if it runs better on your PC though... keep us updated. :)

my bad, i didnt see TOCA written anywhere in the review

but i went back and saw "latest in the TOCA series" buried

why wouldnt they put TOCA in the title though?

so i went to codemasters pro race driver site, and dont see TOCA written anywhere, but regardless this pic comes directly off thier site

the demo is dated 5/1
so it should be fairly accurate of the final product

we\'ll find out tonight i guess

Yeah, that b*tch is getting a P4 1.8a and overclocking it to 2.5Ghz.

No more worries!

And just to think, not that long ago, this guy was playing Q3 at 800x600x16x2x FSAA. Now he\'s b*tchin about playing at 1280x1024x32 4x FSAA and 8x aniso?

i apologize for the size, but i wanted to keep them with as uncompressed as possible, but these are 500k jpeg shots

pic 1 (http://www.psx2central.com/mm/pcownz.jpg)
pic 2 (http://www.psx2central.com/mm/pcownz1.jpg)
pic 3 (http://www.psx2central.com/mm/pcownz2.jpg)

these are taken on a geforce 4 ti4600 at 1024x768x32 bit color
4x FSAA and 8-tap anistropy.

the game has a warning at the start of the demo that it is only 60% into production

cool. thanks mm. IMO, they look a little better than the ones posted in that other thread - and no where as good as the PR screens. I do hope that this is due to a early build and does not rerflect the graphics of the game when its finished.

The backgrounds are horrible - infact, I haven\'t seen that bad backgrounds since GT1 & 2 on PSX. The cars have a feel of Destruction Derby feel to them (the way the car falls apart) - although this might be because of the screens.

Anyway, I do hope that the game will look better once it\'s fully finished - and I hope that the PS2 version will look as good, if not better. ;)
