CadetStimpy Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 I found this to be impressive, especially relative to our early days of 8-bit computing, 256 (or less) colors, giant pixels, etc. I suppose this is a DirectX 12 demo, but also a plug for Square Enix. Fair enough. Anyway, if you watch it (it's just under 4 minutes), be sure to switch to HD, and perhaps full-screen, too. The beginning is sub-titled, but that only lasts for about 40 seconds, then the audio is in English. Towards the end it gets a bit techie (shaders, polygons, etc.), but you'll still probably appreciate the graphics, even if you don't know what the guy's talking about (as I didn't). What was insane, was the "in-game play" looks like a cut-scene! Oh, yah! Click here for the demo. Quote
Jason Carr Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Very cool. Though it's always interesting to me how some lower tech games end up looking better than many of the most high-tech games out there. I played Tomb Raider from 2013 recently and just marveled at the graphics the entire time. Quote
CadetStimpy Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 Ah, crap, I misspelled 'check' in the Subject. Doh! Well, I do know how to spell 'check' - guess I just fat-fingered it. Quote
