Uh guys, those screen shots don't even work. The only one that does is the first one that Hudson posted, and that environment is tiny. [/b]
The entrance to an amusement park is tiny?
Either way, I already stated that we all know what SH3's environments will be like. Will they be huge? No, but I'm willing to guess that RE4's won't be much bigger.
[quote]"They were struggling with the freedom they were given"?? Oh puhleez! The system is a bitch to develop for. Show me one single quote from any major PS2 developer that states otherwise and I'll give you a dozen more in return.
Like I said, they're not complaining anymore. They didn't know how to develope all the techniques in software, they didn't know how to utilise the VRAM effectively, they didn't know how to etc. etc. etc. Sony intentionally did not release any libraries for the system, so as to give the developers more freedom, and it backfired (at least initially). It was a bitch to develope for, mainly because they were given so much freedom/was different.
Quote:That's pretty sad. I'm sorry, but that cel-shading sucks ass. The game looks great, but that's some pretty half-assed cel-shading. All they've done is give the models solid, flat textures. It's not called cel-texturing, it's called cel-shading. The models have to look like flat 2-D objects at every angle, and ZOE2 failes to do that. It looks great as it is, but don't call that great cel-shading.
Well, I'm guess that it's the developers intention to do it that way. Whether it's comparable to most cel-shaded games is really quite irrelevant, in the end.
Quote:. the texture is muddy
It's covered in blood

Quote:and the model extremely blocky, mostly at the feet
I always thought they were hooves

Quote:By smoothness, I mean that everything looks like it's made of cardboard
I don't get that impression
