Amazing!!!

That is the only word to describe this game. Looking at those screenshots makes this game look like it is going to be sooo EPIC! The scale is truly amazing. I can’t wait to get my hands on this game.

Sure, looks awesome, but i bet that the frames will drop very very often as seen in the videos :/

Yeah, that gets on my tits aswell. I wish they'd concentrate on making a smooth experience primarily, then add redundant details. KOTOR was utterly awful that way, it totally ruined what was otherwise a very pretty game.

That's what kinda annoys me about Bioware and the media they release, lots of very nice pictures, but very little game footage. Even when they do interviews, they dont show any new gameplay. So the game very well could run smoothly while looking like this, but you would never know it. That said though, slight framerate hiccups wont stop me from getting this game.

Anyone who says these shots don't look downgraded is lying to himself. I'm not saying "confirmed" but it is downgraded as of today. Starting from pic 3, they all look "so so" or "ugh".

lighting and shadowing is especially day/night.

I don't care if they downgrade it a tiny bit, it already look fantastic and even 50% of the graphics on this pictures above and it will still look fantastic.

Can't wait for this Scifi ^^ it better release soon.

Sorry, i look at pic 2 and i see upgrade. I look at the rest, and i see they are either as good or better than what we've seen before.

Amazing isn't it? The detail in the eyes is just insane.

I'm not sure which Turian this is but I pretty sure it's not Nihlus. Could be a Citadel Council member from the looks of his head dress.

the graphics do look downgraded to me but honestly, id rather a smooth framerate with good graphics than awesome graphics with 10fps

*Looks at the new pics and then looks at the pics you posted* Nope, dont look downgraded to me, until i see the same scenes together i cant agree with you.

Ugh, LEBATO, deal with it. If you think it's downgraded, then still.. a game as beautiful as how it looks in the above screenshots.. you've never played that.

I hate giving in to lebato's opinion but these 2 are bad:

Funny some pictures look awesome (and i got a feeling those are from the "ingame" cutscene's) while the ones i pointed out look downgraded and from the actual gameplay....

I don't think they look bad at all. It's much more difficult to modell humans than to modell aliens. That's because of the fact that you're used to see and interact with humans, so your eye recognizes every single detail on such a model that looks "unnatural".
So that's why the guy in pic 2 looks so amazing while in comparison Shepard looks mediocre to you.

I think, the game looks stunning - bring it on! :)
