But will it blow us visually away after what we've witnessed running on the PS4?

CDP better hope those fabled skin shaders they're working on are impressive, to say the least lol

Deep Down has already blown over anything by CDPR

^^Deep down looked way too good dude.I seriously doubt they'll be able to produce the same visual quality in an actual game so early in the next gen.

Of all people, you are doubting Capcom's capabilities

 

[Chandoo]

yeah that "game play" gif threw me off a bit

like I said, wouldn't doubt if its IN-ENGINE, just not in-game.

It is not in-game but at least it seemed real time enough

Isn't the point of next gen = unbelievable

Its not like they are releasing it this year. We don't even have a release date or proper title for it yet

2005 was full of teasers. No dev claimed it to be realtime renders of their engines. The replies were only vague.
It's darn impressive, but still believable to be realtime.

I have my doubts about what Evolution studios showed.

The only thing that looked unbelieveable was the fire that the dragon breathed. I haven't seen such amazing fire effect TBH.
Otherwise, most of the stuff is definitely possible.

 

[Gizmo]

WIth the amount of power the PS4 packs compared to current gen machines it's definitely possible but I wouldn't expect something that good looking to come out for the first couple of years atleast.

No, but the president of Sony did good old Tretton.

It's time to forget Tretton, Stinger and good old Ken Kutaragi.

Only evidence that the Sony Defense Force is as much of a graphics Abuses will lead to ban as any PC gamer they criticize

I think they're trying to make the most of this period, where console gamers can actually rub off graphical prowess over PC gamers.

 

[geralt]

[h=1]New Witcher 3 Screens Are Totally Wild, Gameplay To Last 100 Hours[/h]

CD Projekt Red has released a slew of new screens from its upcoming, next-gen, story-driven RPG The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. In them, we're treated to a visual tour of the chilly islands of Skellige while getting a glimpse of Geralt on his search for his loved ones. In addition, fans have learned exactly how much play time they can expect from the game and it's sounding like they're going to have to create some free time on their schedules.

As you can see, the screens are pretty impressive, but CD Projekt Red points out that they come from an early version of the game as the team develops a new renderer that will be used in the final version of Wild Hunt, which is slated for release in 2014 for "high-end" platforms including the PlayStation 4. I've uploaded all of today's newly-released screens to the GT Facebook page right here and highly suggest you take a moment to give them a look while letting us know which ones you "LIKE" the most.

In addition to the screens, CDPR let it be known that the main narrative in The Witcher 3 will account for around 50 hours of of gameplay in one playthrough and that the additional stories will add another 50 hours of role playing, taking the game to a total of around 100 hours.

Here's what else CDPR had to say about the game today:


“The Witcher 3 is full of impactful decisions, and gamers will choose between storylines that exclude one another in a single playthrough, ensuring extensive replay value. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt crowns the trilogy with the main narrative, revolving around Geralt’s search for his loved ones and his conflict with the Wild Hunt. As players travel through the game, they visit lands with their own unique atmosphere, communities and memorable characters. CD Projekt RED didn’t create an open world with a singular theme, but concentrated on delivering diversified and engaging environments, 30 times larger than those in The Witcher 2.” said Adam Badowski, head of CD projekt RED sudio. "This setting changes depending on gamers’ actions not only when completing Geralt’s personal storyline, but also because of his involvement in major local plotlines in each land visited and many other carefully-designed side quests. All threads of this player-crafted tale interact with each other and the world, creating an even more nonlinear experience than ever before."


So, are you impressed by these latest screens? Where does The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt rank on your watch list?
