Xbox 360 PS2 Xbox

EA sent this image of Superman Returns. It's from an upcoming trailer and not a gameplay screenshot according to them, so I guess we can call it a render. The grand announcement with the trailer is supposed to happen next week, before or on the 1st of March.

Hope they can do this kind of smoke with the game-engine.
Or they could take the smoke-engine from CoD2 and use it horizontally ;)

Not a gameplay screenshot, but there's still the chance its an in-engine cut scene right?

i'm pretty confident that this could be done in realtime. "not gameplay" doesn't mean "not in-engine"

nope but the game is gonna look great, i saw about 8 or 9 screenshots of it in my game informer about 2 or 3 months ago, they get everything WAY earlier than everybody else. I read up on it and i cant wait to play it.

It's freaking EA, what do you expect. I'm surprised this isn't listed as "target footage" LOL!

If this is in game then EA must have got a truck load of new talent.

There will be a vid at E3, they can't show much in video form due to movie rights i should imagine.

There is a demo online somewhere of a very nice smoke trail technology that has excellent lighting. Smoke smiliar to that is possibe -- just look at ET:QW on the PC. Sadly this pic is only a CGI :(

I'm looking forward to this game it could very well end up being a good one I remember reading in the gamespot preview that superman's punch on that giant robot was so friggin powerful it was incredible.

Shadow of the collossus on crack.

You'll definetly be able to destroy buildings because one of your objectives through out the game will be not only to stop the bad guy, but protect as many innocent lives as possible while doing it avoid buildings filled with innocent people getting destroyed.

Looking at that red and blue streek next to the smoke, it looks like Superman is following a missle....that sounds like it would be cool

This is an older SM shot. I hope the ingame has this sort of insane detail where you can tear apart buildings!

Yup, superman did become a midget. Maybe he died and was born again. Damn, even Chuck Norris did.

I'm guessing nothing we've seen is from the 360 version of the game. Of course I'm just guessing maybe it is.

They better not screw up the controls for this game.
