    Sigh. Why do they insist on providing these 'obviously not running on a common or garden PS2' screenies? I want to see what the game looks like, not what it might look like if it was running on £2000 of top-end PC kit.

    Those screens are probably taken using the hi-res option on a PS2 devkit.... apart from the ultra high resolution, they are otherwise what you'll see on an ordinary PS2.

    Lots of claret in these shots...

    doesnt look that bad actully... might be fun if done properly

    i.e. absolutely nothing like what you'll see on an ordinary PS2. That was my point exactly - we don't have hi-res dev-kits. Why show us pictures taken using it? Why not show us screens in the resolution we can expect?

    That said, the preview of this in Games TM the other month made it sound quite interesting. Hopefully it won't turn out to be 'just another FPS'...

    Aha. Why? :-)

    Btw, the screenshots might be hi-res, but they don't look mocked up. Just look at the ugly textures.

    Can't remember! :-D

  • tiddles #9 8 years ago

    I guess hi-res screens are good for press people who want to print glossy photos... but I agree it just alienates people when they see them online, because they don't take them seriously.

    I think this game sounds quite promising. If it turns out well, it could be the proper heir to Goldeneye... on the other hand, it might not turn out well... ;)

    /is really looking forward to Cold Winter now

    Even the HUD looks dreadful.

  • Mox #12 7 years ago

    The HUD doesn't look like that any more anyway. There are newer screenshots on the official site with the final HUD design on it.

  • Zero Beat #13 7 years ago

    From the HUD I expect something attractive. From experience with other games I can tell that even at its proper tv res that HUD will look chopped off round the edges, low res and the little icons themselves look pretty cheap and poorly spaced out.

    And sort the poor guys thumb out.
