splinter cell vs MGS2

Well, the textures just reminded me so much of TimeSplitters, eventhough the game is quite dark most of the time. I think you see this pretty well from the middle until the end of the movie..

Wow, did I read that right?  Seven NOT impressed with an xbox game?  Surely all things are now possible.

:rolleyes:

LOL, I could care less on which platform this game is. If you didn\'t notice, SplinterCell is coming to all platforms (even PS2), so I don\'t know what your trying to prove this time...? :rolleyes:

Splinter cell is looking so sweet it looks like mgs2 may have some competion.:thepimp:

It\'s a bit confusing though, seven.  You are underwhelmed by the texture work on splinter cell for the xbox, but are willing to bet the ps2 textures would be better?  That\'s a bit odd... dontcha think?

Nice of you to restate the topic.  You truly are a damn moron.

Thats harsh, Ryu.

Read mm\'s topic about insulting each other.

For one you\'re looking at an xbox game/screen and two you\'re kidding yourself if you think the ps2 will look better.  Of course, you\'ve been kidding yourself for months now.

Thats harsh, Ryu.

I did.  I respect it, but this is rastalant, the new equivelant of Docwiz.  A little bit of slack is allowed.

Surely the PS2 version will look much better than the Xbox version! I mean, look at those jaggies. The game will suck I think - nothing will beat MGS2.




Just kidding, so don\'t beat me

Ryu, when did I ever say or imply that I\'d bet that the textures would look better on PS2?

It is pretty obvious that the PS2 version will most likely be ported with no graphical enhancements, so I really have no reason to judge this game any different than any other PS2 game. My opinion hasn\'t changed - this game has the superb lighting, but lacks good animation, has ugly character models and bland textures that IMO rival those of TimeSplitters in the state presented in that movie now.

You did say, if they improve the textures then you might pic it up when it comes to PS2, did you not?. If they improve the textures for the Xbox version, what makes you think it will look the same on the PS2. Not only the textures, but pretty much every other aspect that makes the game beautiful will be toned down for the PS2 version.

I just watched that video and have come to the concusion that I agree with Ryu. The character models do indeed leave much to be desired but I don\'t see the texture problem. If anygame had a texture problem it is MGS2. Anyway, these are problems that should not prevent you from playing the game.

I obviously won\'t buy a Xbox, so the PS2 would be my only option. And in the state the game is in that video, I doubt I\'ll be interested. And I didn\'t mean to imply that "only" the PS2 version could improve - but both versions. As I said, the PS2 will probably look the same at best.

Then I guess we just have different opinions on the matter. BTW; MGS2 doesn\'t have to deal with those texture issues because the developers used some kind of different graphics style which suits the surroundings and the environment you\'re in quite well. But as I said, just my opinion. We\'ll see how this game looks when it comes out.

The title looks cool,

At First:

I was considering buying an xbox if a couple more interesting titles came out.

Then later:

I found out that it was also coming out on the GCN, and I still have no reason to buy a xbox

How Seven can love and praise MGS and say he\'s not interested in this game at all should be baffling, but since we know Seven as well as we do, there is no reason to be baffled.

How he can defend the texturing in MGS while being critical of SC also falls into the above category.

This game one ups MGS in every category.  Everyone\'s hands on impressions of this game have been glowing.  But Seven\'s not interested.

We shouldn\'t be surprised.  It\'s NOT POSSIBLE that the xbox can have a single good hardware option or game, it\'s just not possible.  By admiting that SC is great he would also be admitting that the xbox has a superior version of a great game, before his beloved PS2.  This is destroy his little world and be the end of everything he holds dear in life.
