I have just watched a video clip of EA's Road To The World Cup! You have to see the graphics to believe them ! Jaw dropping ...
But as I watch them kick off (England v Germany) the ball physics, the player animation the lot ! You may as well have been watching ingame footage of FIFA06 , because the only difference I could see from this clip was the nect gen 350 graphics !!
I just hope that when PES come out on the 360, its not next gen graphic update of PES5 !
But that Gameplay/AI get the next gen touch as well.
I had seen a video of one of these game shows E3 (is it?) and one of the devs was asked about the gameplay AI of the "Next Gen Consoles". He said that AI was one of the hardest and most time consuming bits about making a game.
He said that instead of wasting a lot of dev time on creating next gen AI (time means money) in games , you could have a work around, where you had random things happen in games, that made it look as though the AI was much smarter!
Next Gen in graphic terms mean a big leap forward, but will that include a big leap in Gameplay/AI too ??????
I think I will hold back on the next gen thing for a while yet! If you look at the Xbox, it was the most powerful console built. And while some of the games used its power and you could be dazzled by Dead Or Alive and game like it , the xbox had some rank games in terms of graphics, even though it was the most powerful console out there ...
And if gamemakers , couldn't or wouldn't use the power in the xbox (DOA to name on great looking game) then I can see the same with the 360!
