Test Drive Unlimited is back, this type with the relatively unknow car manufacturer Spyker. Fortunately, unknown doesn't mean the cars don't look nice :)
I get more enthused about this game the more I see and hear. This vid looks very impressive. Can't wait to see more. Would be nice if there was a demo on the marketplace.
The stills looks good, but the tearing is really bad in the video. Also there are a lot of "little" things that are annoying me... like the flat tire rims. Of course this games strength appears to be the large persistant world and on the fly matches, so I cannot wait to see some in-depth on hands reviews!
Heres a recent screenshot. Compare that to the screenshots before the game released you will see what I mean.
I see what you mean but May be with the right equipment (a nice HD TV) you may able to see how beautiful the game is but I definately see the difference now. it still looks good though ;) My judgement is based on playing on a 19"" 720p standard flat panel monitor with a VGA cable just so you know.
This certainly looks good.
Although some things are a bit angular; for instance the wheels, rims and the mudguard.
That is something PGR3 definatly does better.
What PGR3 does not do, is show realistic colours.
That game has this anoying plastic look to it and is just too colourfull.
That's what bothers me most about PGR3.
This game on the other hand does this very good, very realistic colours and artwork.
Imo, this game looks much better than PGR3.
I'm not bashing the hardware or developers at all. I know these are launch titles. I was just talking about PGR3 screenshots. I was let down after seeing all those doctored up pre-release shots.
And I played the game on a 32" Zenith CRT HDTV. Which has better picture than the majority of LCDs and big screens. It doesn't look that great to me while your actually playing it.
not exactly in the same league to what im use to playing or what the underground PC racing Scene offers ..
but not bad for a console-type game...
(would be nice if the 360 was as acessable as a PC so i could fit this rigg upto it.. lol 360 dosent even yet support no more than a crappy Maddcatz 'Rumble' wheel)

Commented on 2006-04-21 18:02:05Graphics wise though, PGR3 has the edge and something tells me Forza 2 is going to slap them both....and not just in graphics.
@Blim, the Spyker is one of the worst looking "super cars" out there IMO.

Commented on 2006-04-21 19:35:48Still doesnt look better than PGR3 , but i do like the level of customization that the cars have.

It doesnt look like that at all. It looks great.
