LOOK AT THOSE GRAPHICS:
Wow. Wish my GTA looked like that.
mine does :realsmug:
AH MY EYES, THE GRAPHICS FILTER!!!!!
I'm tired of seeing games do that; it's just Gears 1 and 2 did to make the games look higher quality. What I'm talking about is that filter where you see like this kind of aura off of items (aka look at Bloom in CE for a good comparison) to make it look next gen. I hate it hate it hate it.
Did you even watch the video? There's no Overbright bloom filter anywhere in that video.
And console games were doing that way before the Gears games came out. I never noticed in the Gears games, either. However, if you look at screenshots for the XBOX 360 version of SW BFII, you'll see disgusting amounts of it:
It's not so much Bloom as it is that filter I see in a lot of games. I can't really describe it other than that everything has a light aura on its surface, or better yet it gives even white cement a grimy surface, which is not realistic. Don't mind me, this sort of thing just bugs me is all.
Oh wait, I think you meant the extreme reflections and the such that make it look like objects are emitting light? Yeah, games are very hit or miss with that. Either it's too shiny, or it's too dull.
I didn't see much of that in the video I posted, though. Everything seems balanced in the video I posted. The lense flare probably contributed to whatever you were seeing. It probably looks fake since we're looking at it on a computer screen, but they are trying to simulate what you'd see in real life.
What. WHAT. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
WHAT
I love that show
