and Pikmin does?

Yes. Pikmin does interest me alot. I am getting it for gamecube.

That game looks great for a ps2 game.

How can you say this game looks stupid? Thats just like saying mario is stupid.

I thought Naughty Dog was capable of using the texture streaming ability of the PS2...

i think zelda looks stupid...

Looks like some awesome platforming action to me.

"Stupid as hell" doesn\'t even enter into the equation.

Mario is stupid!

I\'m not a big fan of the genre but the graphics for these shots are very impressive

No they aren\'t. I have seen better. The textures are very simple. Also, the character designs make me cringe. This game kind of looks like an oddworld rip off to me. Maybe I\'ll like it if I try it though.

I like the graphics a lot,
and hope the game will provide a solid 15 hours of platforming fun.

No, your stupid.

Ok, enough with the s word people.

Anyways, this game does not graphically impress me at all. The textures and character models are average, and it has a terrible draw-distance(see blurry horizon). I find it funny how NG talked so much trash about PS2 being so powerful and now their own game isn\'t on par with other PS2 games like MGS2, and FFX. Ha.

That\'s pretty short if you ask me.

Animal Mother, the animation makes up for the "poor" character designs.  (If you have seen Jak and Daxter in motion, and you still think the character designs look poor, you must be crazy or a really big Nintendo fan).  The little cat thing (Daxter) is probably the coolest character I\'ve seen in any game.  It is full of personality and expression.

From ps2.IGN
the duo move effortlessly, smoothly, and with some of the most detailed and eye-appealing animation seen on the PlayStation 2. In case you haven\'t seen the screenshots of movies in our preview or from our E3 coverage, the control and animation is are both exquisite.

Jumpman, did you completely ignore the reviews that were done way back at E3?  This is what ps2.ign said about the draw distance:

No matter where you are in the game, players can see from one to the next and can actually view moving objects and scenes occurring from one to two islands away. For instance, players can see the enemy launching cannon balls from one island away, and watch as the cannonball are shot, fly through the air, and then land in the water, or on land, and see the animation that follows, be it flying dust and dirt, or splashing water.

If you\'re at a high-point in one area, you can see other places that you were before at a great distance, as there\'s no load screens or seperate areas that aren\'t connected. Everything is connected to each other and there\'s never a time that you\'ll leave one area and then just magically appear in another.

It the game is supposed to be 20+ hours, which is pretty good for a platformer.

the graphic is superb.  Highest quality texture, very high pixel fill rate, high polygon counts.  I heard the scene is fill with lots if polygons, and it so big.  Imagine running around a big scene without any load time or game.

Bad thing about this game is, although Naughty Dog did not mention, I know for sure the game run in interlaced mode.  meaning it have to do with VRAM limitation.  There is no jaggies whatsoever, but there is slight because of interlaced trying to align two different frames from different motion together to get a full frame...  2nd, black spot shadow, that\'s not a bad thing because the game have high texture and polygon counts.  With shadow only limit the texture quality.
