Yeah, like those Perfect Dark 0 screens? It is not valid in any way whatsoever. The only video that has been shown that looks better than the current gen is just pre-rendered garbage anyway.

I think I just decided I hate E3.

According the newspaper, the Xbox is suppose to be 10-to-13 times more powerful, which I still think is an overstatment. Its the PS3 that is suppose to be 35 times more powerful. And that is from Sony the King of overstatment.

One bad game doesn't make the case from where I sit. A lot of the demos were not pre-rendered.

This thread is fun

You honestly think Nintendo is going to show videos less impressive than XBOX360? Does the XBOX360 look three times better than RE4? Hardly.

Did IBM and ATI not say their chips were slightly more powerful than the 360?

For a bunch of 'IT'S GAMEPLAY NOT GRAPHICS, MORON!' Nintendo fans you guys sure are being quick to assume things we've every reason to believe otherwise.

Geez, I fall asleep for a mere 6.5 hours and look what happens. OK, no more sleep for me for the rest of the week.
But now I have seen a small, fairly jpeg'ed picture. I have tasted the forbidden fruit. I now crave a 1 Giga pixel photo that not only shows the revolution in action...it shows it's soul.

Remember, though, if we're discussing power - Nintendo had the advantage to highlight it's features last. And yet they still chose to reveal that it's 2 to 3 times more powerful than the current gen?

I don't care how overstated the competition is, Sony said 35. Nintendo, knowing this said 2 to 3.

Nintendo isn't dumb, but this seems like an incredibly stupid move. Why admit you're last without revealing a strategy to make you first?
What are they planning to show us in 145 minutes?

(Also, still holding off on eating my hat.)

EDIT: I really like the new term IGN gave Nintendo fanboys: Revolutionaries. Makes it sound like a Holy War.

Dryden, you don't know when that quote was taken. ATI and IBM said it'd be slightly more powerful than the 360. There's literally no loical reason for it to not be. 360 doesn't use any groundbreaking hardware just the top of line. Nintendo wouldn't try and retake market share with something that isn't even top of the line for right now!

BigJim · « **Reply #57 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:04:59 AM »

They said what? where? Would like to see (I hope it is)...

Do Xbox 360 and PS3 games look 3 times better than Resident Evil 4?

Savior · « **Reply #59 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:07:04 AM »

Hmmm. If its trullly less powerfull then i hope Nintentdo trully has a revolutionary feature. If not then i hope it was a mistake.

They did?
Regardless, you're right, Artimus. I'm just a little pessimistic after Sony's details on their processors. Here's hopin'.

Dryden, look what you made me do... you made me log in and post. I NEVER do this. I just had to say, shut up. We haven't seen any games yet, how can you whine so much? Xbox360 games easily look, as others have stated, less than 2x as impressive as Xbox games. We know Nintendo understates their systems' power time and again, and they always impress in the end. Please, stop the whining. I can't take it. We here are excited about the new system. If they show games that look like they coud be made on Dreamcast, then by al means, complain away. You're just killing me here.

More pics at 1up. BIG pics. I like it. Beats the PS3 to a pulp and matches the XBOX360 easily.

BigJim · « **Reply #63 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:14:28 AM »

Even BIGGAR:

IGN Cube

The hand model also appears to have perfectly peach skin, devoid of almost all detail. Very eerie.

Yeah, you're right. For the record - I have to eat a hat now too with the 1up / IGN pics.

Artimus · « **Reply #65 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:16:16 AM »

I hope it really does glow blue like that

LuWoo75 · « **Reply #66 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:17:28 AM »

Yeah it's by far the most atheticly pleasing maching but my worries are still power if it can still port over the 3rd party games w/ no drops in performance them it will be fine. I just hope Nintendo has capped the technology limits of the revolution.

Pale · « **Reply #67 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:20:12 AM »

Your right, it is sony that said 35. I can't wait to see how much nicer the games will look seeing as they MUST be 10 times better than the Rev games...

::rolls eyes::

I'm done now....You guys can believe whatever the hell you want.

Tanookisuit · « **Reply #68 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:21:00 AM »

Yeah, I really like the look. It's a little PS2ish, but very sleek, just as they said it would be.

(and sorry for getting bitchy with you, Dryden)

Savior · « **Reply #69 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:23:44 AM »

yeah but games like Gears of War look amazing...

Nintendo cant bring on half assed graphics... they delivered with the console case now deliver with the rest

Tanookisuit · « **Reply #70 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:24:45 AM »

I like the logo, one "O" being larger, representing a standard DVD and Nintendo's new gaming media, and the other"o" being smaller, representing a gamecube disc. Making the Gamecube part of the system so central as to include it in the logo makes me think about the rumors of the next Gameboy being a portable Gamecube. Things are falling into place.

Mike_Tyson · « **Reply #71 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:27:00 AM »

Uhmm let's take a look, Xbox is 4 gigaflops, Xbox 360 is 115 gigaflops, thats 28 times the flops performance.

PS2 is 6.2 gigaflops while the PS3 is 218 gigaflops, thats about 36 times the performance.

Gamecube is about 3 gigaflops if I can recall, rumored specs would put Revolution at around 150 gigaflops, thats 50 times the performance.

BigJim · « **Reply #72 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:27:33 AM »

I still wonder how Nintendo's traditionally non-realistic graphic style will mesh with the HD generation. The other system demos focused on photo-realism and realistic physics...

It would be rather interesting to see a Wind Waker type game in full-blown high-res cell shading. WW's resolution was actually low, if I remember right.

mantidor · « **Reply #73 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:27:34 AM »

It looks simple to me, the cube had some character by going against the crowd, but who cares, is not that important. Im a bit worried about the specs though, because I see already the hords of Ninty haters already saying "its teh weak conzolezS!!11!LOL" ¬_¬

Artimus · « **Reply #74 on:** May 17, 2005, 05:30:00 AM »

I'm positive it'll be a powerful beast. Once we see the games and get the numbers all will be fine. Just 90 minutes now
