Dear Watch_Dogs: please take note. (New Infamous Second Son Screenshots Inside)

Yep, game looks great. Even with some low res assets and wonky shadows. Gotta take a hit somewhere.
As for the thread title about Watch_Dogs taking note, don't think that's quite a fair comparison. Having to concentrate on one platform is far easier than spreading yourself over several, with half those being last-gen.

Damn, this is amazing!
You joke, but I know they'll find a way to give this game the lowest acceptable score possible :/
"Took us too far into the experience. At that moment in our lives, we didn't WANT to be in Seattle."
I'll be shocked if they don't. Which is fucking sad for a supposed "neutral" website.
Leg.
I bet whoever's reviewing Ground Zeroes must be near tears straining to come up with a reason not to favor the PS4 version.
I can almost see them squirming.

Love the art style/use of colours
Well, it did get what was coming after the initial reveal. You can't mislead people and expect zero backlash.

Really nice to see a game upgrade its visuals or at least keep them really similar to reveals for a change.

It'll be similar reasoning as TR. "720p is fine for the kind of game MGS is".
What would you say the downsides are for you, keeping in mind, of course, that it's open world?
YEAH BUT CAN YOU DRIVE THE CARS?!? NOT TRUE OPEN WORLD!!!!!SHADOWS!
I know you're joking, but I never understood the people who actually did want that. Why would you want to drive a car in a superhero game...

Saints Row allowed it and it was pointless

Next gen has arrived. This game is so beautiful. Sony needs to be marketing the hell out of it

Yeah, because Ubisoft open world games are known for their great gameplay *cough*.

"Curiously, the PS4 version of Ground Zeroes appears to be too smooth for our eyes. Further investigation shows that Kojima Production's choice of running the game at 60 fps might have been the wrong choice, ruining the series signature cinematic feel and in some cases even causing nausea amongst our reviewers.
In conclusion, we recommend beginners and long time veterans of the series to play the game on the Xbox One or Xbox 360. Because FUCK IT, they both look the same anyway."
You bring a tear to my eye, you're a great solider in this war, I shall inform the higher ranks of your dedication.

I'm not a fan of Xbox One at all, but subtle trolling like this is annoying.

"The realism of the game took us too close to the uncanny valley. The visuals told us we were on a rainy Seattle street, yet our mind knew otherwise. We found that feeling unsettling."
But it's really sad when publishers pull a bait and switch, then get cagey that people notice and are not happy.
Especially when there's other options / devs currently in the marketplace that don't do that, and do uphold their promises of what they intend to release to their fans. At the least thres more that od apologize and cover why issues came up and choices had to be made; instead of trying to stay mum and hope less media savvy people only remember the E3 bullshit when they go to pick up their preorder.
If watchdog was more grounded in showing what PS4/XB1 should expect, there'd be no issue here. No one forced them to stretch the truth so far that it causes backlash as they crashed back down to earth. No one but themselves.
mother of FUCK at the screens. Like I said in the other thread, even if I end up cold on the gameplay like I have for the past inFamous games, I probably will still think I got my moneys worth just from the sheer spectacle alone. Good Grief is this game gorgeous, easily one of the prettiest open world games ever made @_@

Obviously Infamous is way sharper with being native 1080p, but I honestly think its visuals are beaten out by GTA 5.
And this is a launch window, open world title from a studio not known for visuals last gen. We're going to see some insane shit over the next few years.
I dare you to back this up with actual captures from GTAV.

The fuck are shadows doing in this game, wtf will the naysayers say? Stapstapstap!!!SHADOWS!

Based on what I've played so far it's pretty rare for Delsin to cast a shadow.

One example would be these shots of Infamous. They're very clear and sharp, which is a massive plus, but everything looks overly glossy, and the textures either look a bit muddy or the "transition" between them is too clear, like the road stripes. In terms of rain shots with puddles, rain drops, and the natural-ness of city textures (if that makes sense), I think GTA V takes it. Obviously they're not as high res with being last gen, but their general design looks nicer and you can't beat good design.
My god at those pics, makes me wanna get a ps4 faster.
Everything gets a beanie
Can my avatar get one
It's like he's not even trying to hid his fanboyism anymore lol
