Xbox360\'s own \'Dynasty Warriors\' !

I see geometry instancing/branching came in handy.

nice graphic if that is realtime.

Looks nice! Could be fun to see some LOTR style battles in real time.

EDIT: After looking more carefully at the pic, the grass texture looks like ass. Oh well, it\'s still early in development.

I am amazed by the huge number of characters on screen but the character models and enviroment arent that much of a deal

like i said : geometry instancing.

It\'s the data of 1 single model which is then like a look-up-table for the x times
instancing.

Branching is then used to probably have a sort of \'random\' AI behavior for \'em.

The gameplay clips, which looked to be all realtime, blew us away. Imagine Dynasty Warriors but with no fog, no visual barricades, perfect image quality and hundreds of detailed enemies on screen simultaneously. Now picture that running at sixty frames per second, and that is Ninety Nine Nights. One jaw-dropping scene in the trailer showed an explosion, with hundreds of characters being smoothly tossed into the air. Judging by the trailer, the feel of a massive battle will be perfectly captured in Ninety Nine Nights.
...
At the press conference, Mizuguchi introduced Ninety Nine Nights\' director, Phantagram CEO Sang Youn Lee. Through a translator, Lee, who seemed to be a bit overwhelmed at speaking before a crowd of a few hundred people, commented that, as this was his first collaboration, he was a bit worried, but the game is progressing well. The Xbox 360 is more powerful than his team had originally been expecting, he disclosed.
