Well I don't think the argument is about it not looking good. But when a man put out some serious $$$ for his rig, that lil extra eye candy does make it worth the while. Remember the PC has always been the real "next gen" platform I mean a console is usually stuck with a few years of life cycle and well with PC hardware you can never keep up with the latest and greatest unless u willing to pay.

I would say that if you playing on console all the time and don't have much play on high end PCs then you probably won't miss it since you don't have anything to compare it to. That's the category I am now in lol.

why do people get so worked up on resolution when playing the game supposed to be fun and enjoyable...the game not there to sit in front your eyes so you can wander around and admire how real it looks, when you can easily just go outside and get the ultimate HD experience by going out in nature instead of sitting in front the TV or PC Monitor with 1900 x 1200 pixels...come nah man, resolution is meaningless when all you want to do is have a good gaming session..
When playing on a console, it looks good! when playing on PC it looks good! resolution comparison is taking things a bit far. The game working good? yes? so why complain about it? Nit picking just prevents you from having a good time...

if resolution is meaningless
get rid of your sexbox and pick up an oscilloscope and play some pong

A good looking game is like a work of art. when I crank up the details,and adjust my anistrophic flitering, texture detail, antialiasing or what have you, and notice all the gorgeous bells and whistles i want to be able to appreciate all that visual splendour. hence the extra cash paid on the videocard/processor/ram combo. that is one aspect of pc gaming I heavily appreciate, this in no way trumps gameplay, jus adds much needed flavor to a good gaming experience.

600p.... is that even a resolution? not self 720p which is upscallable to 1080i? Cause then i'd expect noticeable pixellation like in Halo 3 which is not 720p native....

You'd be surprised at some of the resolutions games run at on console. Take Tekken 6 for example, the PS3 version is running at 1024×576 resolution with 2xAA and the 360 is version running at 1366×768 with no AA.

http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?p=1113342

Heres a list.

But my point is, do you care? Or are you having too much fun to even care?

I don't care, I can't see why anyone would care once the game is good. Hell I play old SNK games (and we know how shitty those look) graphics mean very little to me  :lol:

I'm with berzerk on this one. Graphics definitely adds to the experience. Why do we have to choose??

It's the year 2009. I want great gameplay AND great graphics. Already made a compromise on the Wii. Not gonna cut the 360, PS3 and PC that slack.

Here's my take on MW2 and its 'lack of support' that the PC gamers are irrate about. The console version has been running the distributed model all its ONLINE LIFE. There are no dedicated servers, the main connections are selected from the best connection amoungst the players and it's been working for some 60+ K consoles users per day and that's just MW, not counting WAW and soon MW2. Same applies to most online games on the console (at least on XBL).

Now lets look at the problems with the distributed model, no mods, no predictable performance, less control.

Now lets look at the pros, less cost, more redundancy

My guess with things as they are they decided after seeing the console model work well at a lower cost to them and decided to just standardize the whole platform.

As for lower graphics, honestly if in the flurry of bullets you have TIME to notice the difference and I haven't myself then you're clearly getting WTFPWNED cause yuh standing still.

Now I can appreciate the idea that yuh get spoiled with BESS graphics and cyah stand to play at lower res, that was my first reaction to Halo 3 and ODST... I was like wait wait wait... after seeing GOW and MW WTF is this??? but then as I started playing more and got into the multiplayer I realized that I DIDN'T Have TIME to notice it wasn't as pretty and honestly now, even if they did improve the graphics it would add very little to the SOLID online gameplay.

while with some effort, I can cut halo the slack for graphics (had a blast with halo 1 on the original xbox on a 27" CRT TV), I can't see myself doing the same with COD. Need the hi res to see Arcman crouching in the bushes from a distance.

Have you played MW on the 360? I can hit a man across a map with a M16, iron sites in a gilly suite. My 32" HD with 1080i works fine.... so what's really the problem here guys? My res can't pass 1080i sure, but you LCD passing 55" HD?

maybe ODST giving other 360 games a bad name, lol

like I said, will triple check my setup on wednesday, maybe I'm runnin in SD mode and don't know it. PS3 graphics looks MUCH better in 1080p mode (Tekken 5 DR) than the 360 does (ODST)

Well naturally, ODST is built on the Halo 3 engine which honestly doesn't even run 720p native res, so when its scaled up to 1080i you get pixellation. To see what the 360 can really do graphically you have to play Gear of War (2 is even prettier), Bioshock, even MW is damn good imho. I had REAL BAWL the first time I saw the gilly suite sniper mission.

Graphics is a VERY important part of the experience. Why do you think that even though gameplay wise Crysis was average it STILL attracted so many players...especially for the single player...

IQ would obviously matter a little less for multiplayer in fast paced games, but in slow, careful, creep in the bush gameplay, superb graphics is a MUST, for me at least.

Still cant believe there arent going to be any dedicated servers.

Capn, if it were THAT large of an issue IW wouldn't have gone this way. With well over 100k players online on consoles and NO dedicated servers I really don't see how it's going to be an issue.

w1n, it is an issue for the hard core pc gamers, no doubt.

Lan play and dedicated servers are a hall mark of PC gaming. Unfortunately, it's also become its Achilles heal. The one weak spot where developers can do some damage to the hardened pirates.

Making online play the gate keeper for legitimacy. A realtime honor guard to keep pc gamers honest.

shame it has to come to this.

Every day the sun sets on the lan party and by extension, the GL scene.
