Not too bad to say the least.

And speaking of Epic games in development, while 360 action title Gears of War was undoubtedly one of the more visually amazing titles on show during May' s gaming spectacular, Rein promised that improved tech will mean that the final version will raise the bar still further.

" was using our single-threaded renderer. We have our new Gemini multi-threaded renderer working in the engine right now," Rein explained. " The final game' s built on it, it gives us better frame rates and more fluidity - UT 2007 will also benefit from it. It only gets better from here. So if you were impressed with Gears of War at E3, the finished game' s going to be much better, it' s going to be spectacular."

cool i expect constant 60fps...

£10.00 bet they go for 30fps and more particle effects and bigger explosion and
more rps on the chainsaw. They' ll also give Marcus more muscle as well.

I think they' ll really go all out to impress. On a side note have you guys seen the grainy but visable screen shots of blue dragon I don' t know why but just looking at them sorta gives me a good feeling about the game.

Lol but I really think i' m gonna love this game.

Whilst BD looks a bit kiddy, I wanna see more in-game stuff before I make a
clear judgement, that, and I pray both this and LO are not turn-based..

Or at least not generically turn-based..

Yea more in game would be good but I kinda had the feeling they were holding off to either make them have more of an impact coming up to launch or they haven' t really finished everything yet. I dunno about lost oddysey yet but have high hopes for bd.

Both Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey are turn based, but with revolutionary twists.

Just expect to be able to run around freely while you are fighting that much I' m sure of.

There will be a lot to mess around with in both blue dragon and lost odyssey as far as battle is concerned. Blue Dragon in my opinion is one of the 360' s more impressive looking games ignoring the crappy photos taken and the june 30th 2005 screenshots Microsoft released during E3 of this year. (Those screens are indeed as old as June 30th)

Blue Dragon is going to be extremely impressive and so will Lost Odyssey.

What no swede yet?`

Now though, Mistwalker is actually making me consider playing jap RPGs, though they probably wont ever compare with Western ones :P

The swede' s probably sleeping....

AS LONG AS EVERYBODY REALISES THAT HE' S NOT TALKING ABOUT THE GRAPHICS GETTING ANY BETTER THEN I DON' T HAVE TO BASH ANYBODY.

This specifically concerns framerate, collision detection, AI, geometry etc... all of which are handled by the processor.

Xenon has 3 cores and each core has 2 threads. All 3 cores were/are being used and Epic were simply only using one thread per core.

All this means is that now they' ve moved over to using all 6 threads the framerate, AI and everything handled specifically by the processor will all improve in performance.

(note that this also means that the game is done graphically and Epic have begun tweaking everything and working the bugs out)

So basically what you are telling me is to go down and buy a game tomorrow?

K im gonna go down and buy BMFE2.

Btw late august im gonna get 8000 kronor for my work.

I fukking hate my 360,too many great games comes :P

Well you' d better be getting BOTH SC and RB6!!!

RB6 is a must have ffs,dont insult me and think i like wii/ds games like gangsta [:' (]

oh sorry,wii60 ftw!!!

The holy alliance against the evil empire SONY

For a game like Gears of War, the GPU will be the bigger factor in deciding how many frames per second it will do. 1000$ says it will target 30 fps.

I dunno man, cliffy b is a cool guy. I think he might go for 60.

No,its going 30.
