I really like the second action clip. Looks like some fun games, although I'm not sure what they were. Also not sure why they had the stupid messags flashing on screen. Its not subliminal if you can see it and subliminial messages don't even work. I really liked the gundam bit at the end. I've been waiting so long for another good gundam shooter like Gundam Side Story 0079 on Dreamcast. Now if they would just let you play those shooters with mouse and keyboard, I might be interested.

So far Sony is the only one showing off real next generation capabilities. The Explosion dynamics arn't too bad. Nothing compared to how the system can handle some serious geometry and still run like that. Kill Zone is what i'm waiting to play, cause it's the first game i ever seen that looks like a full blown FMV, except it's not a video it's all done in real time 3D.
After reading about Kill Zone on PS3 i was convinced that what they show is actually how the game plays. When i show the clip to friends they think what they see in the video is not even possible.
-Smoke Particles looks totally baked.
-Textures appear to be high rez.
-Motion Blurr Never seen it done properly in real time playback until now.
-High Geometry, Looking at images of the ingame content the tires on that vehicle alone is covered in pegs, all made up of actaully poly surfacing and not textures and bump mapping, and still the system is handling other attributes that would cause a modern PC to choke.
-Bump mapping in games looks better than ever here. Honestly.
I feel it's because of Kill Zone, Microsoft has to show us TV commercials that lie about what the game actually looks like, and the commercials that do show us what the game looks like, those commercials usually show us people with their jaw dropped for most of the scene.
As we all know it's not the graphics that deliver all greatness in video games. But looks do play a role in the experience of gaming. And our good friend Sony has been pretty damn good at delivering great games. Things arn't looking too good for Microsoft, i'd like to see the 360 put up an amazing battle this time around, so in 5 more years we can have a video game system that is so awsome it would be almost illeagal.

Gundam Side Story 0079...thats a bad ass game. For the PC? Keyboard and Mouse? Check. Japan has an assload of Gundam games available for PC, most of which are ported over to the home consoles. Personally I don't know the names of the games, but some of the internet cafes I go to, have Japanese kids playing them online. I know it's Gundam because I can recognize the characters from the assload of Gundam advertisements all over the place. If I find out the name I'll be sure to post it. The game might have been played in LAN party when I seen it, I wasn't too sure. I only stopped by to pick up a girl so we could spend the weekend together snowboarding.
The first video wasnt mean to look pretty, it was just there to show that the ps3 is able to create virtual environments with physics properties. In other words, an animator had no part in creating that explosion. The ps3 was able to create that explosion itself. The debreee flying, smoke wafting and dissipating, fire dying, everything in that was determined by the ps3; no motion capture or animation involved, all ps3 goodness.
