WoW

I hope they release more gameplay at X06

Antialiasing will make this game looks 10x better

It will also make it run at 10 fps... stop saying it will make it look better, it looks spectacular as it is. I'd rather it look like this than smoother edges and rubbish frame rate =/

It is totally different in motion. The technical issues are what they are, UE3.0 engine would need huge revamps to fully utilize X360 power, as making it render tile-based(which again would offer us AA).

_As far as I know_, Anti-Aliasing doesn't slow down the performance this much, because its hardware-implemented in the embedded DRAM of the GPU.

looks great i like the style of game the cold dark city

i completely agree with you Nit3m4re it looks awesome and amazing, plus these are screenshots so think about when it moves..

A few questions about Gears....

Are there ANY vehicles you can use in it?

Will it be co-op over xbox live? As in, co-op campaign?

Someone answer please, because my friend wants to know and it will be the
difference between him getting a PS3 or a 360..

amazing

If you count a mine cart a vehicle, and there is co-op over live, yes.

omg thats awesome! the horde are actually FRIGHTENING when you look at their faces, awesome job!

im not sure about coop over live, but you can coop anytime in single player. think of contra from the nes days... your friend can pop in anytime by pressing start.. that sort of thing

superb - .........

I welcome your friend to the world of the Xbox360,

Ign interview with CliffyB:- "As for transportation, there will also be an assortment of Coalition robots and vehicles, while The Locusts rely on beasts and organic weapons."

Xbox.com "Emergence Day" announcement:- "Battle through the challenging single-player campaign, or take the war online as Gears of War pushes the limits of Xbox Live® from intense, nail-biting multiplayer firefights and thrilling, online co-op to explosive downloadable content."

There are screenshots of the vehicles somewhere online, I'll try and find them :)

Seriously, it does need AA. The bad guy on the right of the second picture looks mighty PS2ish without it, not to mention he seems like he could be suffering from some PS3 texture popout.

stop with ineducated guesses
UE3 engine scales very Badly with multisampling because the AA works before the shadowing system in a post space, if you turn on a 4x msaa, then the shadowing become 4 times slower
this is a problem of UE3, with x360, ps3 and pc too

if you don't trust me, search the words of the developers.

the engine don't uses tile, edram for aa, but motion blur and hdr, this is far from what the console can do, but it's already the best I've seen in realtime on every platform at 30 fps

I think it does use 2xAA, from what I can tell from these screenies and my experience with games on my PC where I can set the AA-level myself..

I wish they would make next-gen consolegames adaptable to what resolution the you run it at.. Like at least 4xAA if someone plays on a 480i SDTV, and less AA if needed to keep performance up to par when someone plays on a HDTV in 720p.. Now it's just the same AA-level for everything (2xAA for most Xbox 360 games), which results in lots of aliasing for people playing in older SDTV's (like myself)..

wow!

jaggiessss

ineducated? lol

He is sold now! I am also sold even more!

Thanks for the confirmation.

Looks like a CGI horror movie which is amazing. Game looks killer.
