In-game shot.... (possibly)

in game shot of a CG video maybe. Not gameplay.

No really - have a look on the website... this is NUTS - it is actually an in-game shot of a city siege

Here's another one :)

It just looks phenomenally good... but 6/7 months to wait. Hope the new new Stalker and Metro games I've heard rumours of do actually materialise

it doesn't say shit on the website, just shows the picture.
^^ that one is an in game shot, the first one is not.

Those two images look pretty similar in terms of foreground / bg detail, bg blurring, smoke etc. Whether they're renders or in game, I'd guess they're both the same.

Spelunky is sadistic. I've barely gotten anywhere in three hours of playing.

I know, it's hardcore and oldskool. Loving it. Getting nowhere ... slowly.

Where's your optimism Sumo? ;-) just hoping, that's all. Who knows - if they've used real actors for the cut scenes, then maybe they've put enough effort in to the actual game to give it a pre-rendered look...

Doesn't seem to be much they can't do, graphic-wise, in games these days

Like command and conquer.

I've just started playing Skyrim again... really debating getting a newer pc to see what it looks like with everything maxed

Equally I heard a car alarm yesterday as I was waiting at the ATM and froze with a panicked look on my face.

I bought Civ 5 in the Steam sale, it's really good.

hmm probably should start an ID list to make it easier to add everyone ?

ID list for?

Steam/PS3/Xbox etc... Can't be arsed going through the last 127 pages to add people

I know Max Payne had mixed reviews but I'm enjoying it, even if it is linear. Its also fucking gorgeous. Really absorbs you into the in game world, I think.

Bought bf3 yesterday. Awesome game - who plays so i can add you and get some squad play on the go?!

It looks pretty good though the colours are too grey. Love the bullet time effects

MP3 was awesome. Just a great story, love his comments all the time

Mass Effect 3.

So good.

Want to give l4d 2 a go soon? Such a great game.

Only have access to OSX for now I'm afraid - in a couple of weeks when the new laptop is (finally) arranged I'll get on it (I have the SteamPlay version).

Anyone here play EVE? I'm looking for a new corp to join...
