Sorry otimus but while SO4 doesn't look bad it's not near still:
http://www.playkon.com/uploads/2008/06/Star-Ocean-...
compared to
http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2008/216/9287...

Just screams GC to me. Nothing we've seen from FF13 as of yet seems like likely in-engine shots.
I second this. Absolutely, it's just way too good to be ingame. No one is denying the telent of SE thouh so Im willing to be surprised but not to the poin this CG screen, there is just absolutely no way.

It seems unbelievable, but I wont underestimate them. As much as I hate FF12, I can still look back at it and be amazed at the look of the characters and imagine what they could achieve with the power of the ps3 or 360.

They'll have an amazing engine, that's a given, but I suspect that the combination of that engine with Square's art will make it come pretty close to that shot there. Yea that shot definitely does look CG, but I won't doubt their ability to come close to that.

Megido you aren't comparing the new scans tho, the image you linked to is obviously CGI






Look at the detail in the necklace, look at the curls of hair, the first one deffinately looks like in game to me.

There is deffinately a big difference between the two and its not because its a bad scan either.

Seeing them side by side makes me believe even more that its an in-engine shot, it looks superb, but you can see it doesnt have the detail of the CG.
The eyes and the face in general doesnt have the detail or crispness of the CGI version and the hair is simplified (look at the flick of hair or the right hand side of the cgi, completely missing from the other shot.)

Jolli, I think they are both from a CG cutscene.

Jolli: the biggest difference between those two images is that one is a photo of a magazine in incredibly bad quality and the other is a direct capture. Admittedly the skin looks way more plastic in the photo, possibly because there is no translucency, but this could also be attributed to crap quality and different lighting. Let's just wait and see shall we? I'm not convinced yet at any rate :)

Your wrong, your wrong, your wrong.

Why would the models be so different in quality in 2 seperate CGI cutscenes, you can see the polygons in the curls of hair as I mentioned, the lighting is quite flat in the top pic (in game one), look at the beads on her necklace they a lot less detailed, there is little doubt in my mind that the top one is in game.

And most importantly, the CGI has selfshadowing the in game one does not ;)

It's hard to tell from that scan, but I think I'm siding with Jolli on this one, if I had to pick in-game or CGI, I would say in-game.

Yep based on the shot jolli chose that is most definitely in-game. That isn't CG. I'm sure of it.

Much better quality scans which should clear the ingame/cg debate now :D I now agree, they are indeed REAL time screens :D

Indeed, most definately ingame, looks fantastic aswell, characters look quite close to the cgi counterparts, a bit stiffer and lower poly obviously but the gap is closing.

Yes these looks very much like in-engine shots. I can't help but wonder how the very detailed characters will affect the environments though. Ah well, looks sweet at any rate.

Jolli: I'm just so tired of people spewing crap on the 360 because it's MS making it when it's obviously the best choice if you want to play great games NOW. I wouldn't mind owning a PS3 if there was something to warrant the purchase, but there really isn't as far as i'm concerned and i'm just so sick of hearing how awesome FFXIII will be and that we won't get it on the 360...well, screw you sony fanboys, now the 360 is getting it too :)

Now ofc far from everybody has this view of the ps3 but i feel i hear it a lot. Often enough to annoy me.

The days when FFXIII was a major talking point is clearly gone, but there is redemption yet. Have you guys heard yet how much better FF Versus XIII's graphics are than FFXIII's? :P

It's not true, but that's what is being said by many people now since it's taking full advantage of the ps3 as an exclusive and FFXIII is being held back by the fact that it's also releasing on the 360 :)
