Remember, it was a quite a long time ago, Dark Sector was the first Xbox 360 title ever announced. Back then it was a futuristic action/stealth game with a very interesting graphics style. Well the developers of Digital Extremes definitely changed their idea of the game, like you'll be able to see for yourself with this very nice teaser trailer. As far as I can tell, this is all realtime.
Update: Added 8 images.

Commented on 2006-11-22 19:18:35The game will also have "play with the envoirment". That "Krull"-projectile is called "MAg Disc" is gonna be your primary second weapon as weapon of choice.
Xion, it is real-time. I have around 10 screenshot that havent been seen to the public in great quality (not 720p damn) which shows you more of the camera angle of how you take cover, shoot and even throw the Mag Disc. DE should be flattered that people are calling it CGI, because that is how the game should be. So good to look like CGI, thats next-gen.
I am gonna try to find that thread I started like last month with those pictures, you guys gonna like it. It is very close to Resident Evil 4 with a little bit further into the future.
Commented on 2006-11-22 19:25:38"The story for the game is really starting to kick ass as well. I like Master Chief, and I like the testosterone pumped look of (Gears of War’s) Marcus Fenix, but I prefer a story arc and personality for the main character that is a little deeper. It’s pretty clear that character development is how television is consistently whopping Hollywood these days, and in a 15-hour game we have the same opportunity. Hayden Tenno is going through so many physical and personal changes through this story that I think we will be able to engage players’ minds as well as their adrenal glands."

Xion this is real-time, and I am not gonna be surprised if you think its not, but it is. If Gears can look as good as it is now, then why wouldn't this be realtime.
Commented on 2006-11-22 19:34:28dont worry Sath, i know what is and isnt real-time, and that is 100% in-game graphics , and it looks frickin awesome too ^_^i like how they are like stalkin him and he throws the boomerang thing lol, bet he cut off the dog's head!!
Commented on 2006-11-22 19:49:38And yeah, I hope you can cut off the dogs head with the Mag Disc.
There is 3 things I dont like about DS right now, dont be shocked guys hehe.
1. They have to change the hair style to more shorter hair, kind of like couple of inches long. And then change the face to more of a bad ass look. More like if the guy had scars on his face, looked like he really have been into some tough breaks.
2. I wish they would have taken the place to a made up place like RE with Raccoon City or Silent Hill.
3. The soldiers outfit I hope get more high-tech than those three soldiers in the teaser.
Although what the hell was those two "metallic animals"? The material on their body looked like Haydens arm, so i think those two will be Haydens more advanced enemies further in the game which have more of them coming than regular soldiers with dogs.
These three things are the only thing that I would see change, but other than that I dont care, the game looks to be awesome. Though i am hoping for a Collectors Edition or something, because I want to know why they changed the 2005 concept to this and how, but I dont think this game is gonna be that big for CE version, more like a sleeper hit.

Commented on 2006-11-22 20:52:35dude this isnt halo3. chill out. if its kind of like RE or silent hill, i may keep my eye on it, but this game is not what it once was thats for sure.
Commented on 2006-11-22 20:55:17CGI applies to ALL graphics which are generated by a computer, BUTTTTTTTTTT ->
in a games-context i think the consensus up until now was this:
CGI means PRErendered movies (like the ps3 crap at e3 05!) while everything produced in
REALTIME (!) is referred to "in engine", or "in game". the latter being actual gameplay of the game (maybe alpha or beta, but ingame) with some dude actually playing the game.
"in engine" means not necessarily "realtime", but using the game engine(duh!) and NOT some package like 3dsmax or maya, to produce either realtime footage (halo3 trailer!) or "near realtime" footage <- renders a sequence of images using the game engine(as opposed to some cgi package like 3dsmax maya and so on), but maybe with higher res assets(higher polycount, better res textures). these images are then edited, post processed and put into a movie. of course you could also render with higher res assets in realtime if you strip all the baggage you normally have when playing the game (like controls, a.i., sound). and there is always a possibilty to mix multiple techniques ^_^
i hope this clears things up
/wiseass mode off ;)
to be at least one bit on topic... i think the video belongs into the "in engine" category.
at least it looks possible to be realtime, consodering how great games like dead rising, gow or cod3 look.
Commented on 2006-11-22 22:01:51Nevermind what I said about originality.

Commented on 2006-11-23 02:25:01This game exists yet?
At long time ago I had seen some artworks.. and NOW I can say: This game will be very good! ^^
Commented on 2006-11-23 04:47:32 In reply to ShawnzeeSynce, never played RE4, but seen it, looks to be very good. The teaser is in-game engine, and it will be better like these screenshots. Hell even the Mag Disc shot when thecamera was close was in-game.

Man does this game look good. Although this image http://www.xboxygen.com/upload/Gallery/Darksector0... and this one is my favorite http://www.xboxygen.com/upload/Gallery/Darksector0...
Commented on 2006-11-23 12:37:31Seriously.. this is nothing compared to the sharpness and detail of textures in GoW, if you've seen the rain level on an HD tv, you'll be frickin' amazed that that's in-game.. I swear this is in-game, IGN says it, and it looks like it.
