i don' t know is this is CGI or 3d but looks better to me than gears of war or at least as good but on massive scale , which is freaking scary.


CGI OR INGAME ? or fifty fifty

They did really well with the characters, although the one in red looks like the prince in the shrek movie

It switches from CG to realtime at 1:43 and no, the realtime stuff does not look as good as Gears of War.

The difference is pretty big between the two, but if animation in the rest of the FMVs is as tight as it is in this one, I' m not sure I' ll mind full CGI video that much at all.

Yeah the scale seems to be a big talking point, as do the lighting and the water effects.

I really like Factor 5. The Rogue games were amongst my favourite last-gen and i had hoped Lair would be just as impressive as they were then. Buuuuuut, their decision to force SixAxis control has pissed me off. The only game that i' ve felt that it works with is PSN game flOw, and i get bored of that after about 2 minutes. They should have inclued analog control as an option, just like Warhawk (which is awesome).

Other than that, the games texture quality, animations and framerate could be better. They' re pushing for 1080p native and the scale of the game means the textures won' t be as detailed as games like Gears, ...but that' s the same situation and developer working on a game with vast environments faces, ...look at the Ace Combat 6 gameplay footage or Oblivion for examples.

Lair is still promising but i want analog control.

The SixAxiS Motion-Sensing doesn' t seem to work as well as the Wii' s, so let' s hope they decide to put in the analogue. I should think that the frame-rate and animation quality should round off as it gets closer to release.

Yeah motion control should have died when MS tried it in the 90' ies, it doesnt work, and isnt fun!

Considering the control in Warhawk is infinitely enhanced by SixAxis, I' d assume the decision to go with it over analog was a good decision by Factor 5.

Kills his wife, kid & then himself. The man had the rock-star lifestyle while moonlighting as a gay club-fighter... I mean... wrestler.

Oh yeah, Torr. Did you hit APPLY after selecting an avatar? That' s the only way they work.
