Ps2 - Psx Fmv
« on: July 28, 2002, 02:53:02 PM »



What do you think? Which looks better? Does PS2 ingame graphics look better than some of PSXs FMVs?

I say yes. Sure there is some extremely nice looking FMV on PSX, but IMO PS2 beats most of them.

I tried to find shots of GT1 and 2 FMV but I didn’t find any good screens. However GT3 easily beats them IMO.

This is something that I have always said, but I will say it again. Because of the way the PS2 graphic engine works, its very difficult to get graphics that look like rendered FMV, and this is because of jaggies and shimmering. Sure, character models and textures are very similar, and the games do run at 60 instead of 28, but on the whole FMV always has looked better, simply because of the smoothness and perspective camera effects.

I am certainly thinking that something like GT4 could easily top some of GT1\'s intro\'s (GT2\'s intro was actually a GT 2000 build running on two PS2\'s). Thats how that got rid of the jaggies.

The bottleneck isn\'t the PS2 graphic engine (you probably ment GPU), but the lack of effort and talent with most developers.

Ah yes Fast, I agree about the FMV thing. Jak and Daxter looks incredible in motion and reminds me more of a Disney cartoon than anything else. Baulder\'s Gate has some awesome animation (the lip synching is probably the best I\'ve seen in a game, together with Jak & Daxter), Final Fantasy has some great character models, GT3 looks significantly better than the intro in GT1/2 (thanks to wet stages and real time reflections on the cars), Tekken TAG looks about as good as the FMV\'s (would have to compare them again to be sure though)... and and and!

The great thing is, there\'s still heaps to be improved graphicswise....

*waits for Jak and Daxter II

Perhaps the detail of PS2 characters is bigger, but I think PSX FMV are better in quality than realtime PS2 graphics. Of course, it also depends on the game you compare, because FFVII FMV are not the FFIX FMV. Perhaps next generation has twice the quality of PS2 FMV :D I don\'t think so ;)

Screenshots... BAH I say. (notice usage of capital letters).

Look at FFX ingame, IN MOTION.
Look at FFVIII FMV, IN MOTION.

Eh?

It\'s nowhere near that FMV guality. It does surpass some lame mid-90s FMV, sure, but you\'re really lost with this comparison... :)

The picture quality is better in the FMVs (FFX has some shimmering problems). But the models look like ass.

Im not just comparing FF series though.. Have a look at GT3, Ace Combat 4 vs AC on PSX ect.

Some things look better, others dont.
