Quake3World

Very, Very, impressive. Some of those shots look real. Especially the cars. Could some one translate the first page.

Digital rice! :icon19:

It does look impressive though. What platform is it on? I don't speak Czech...

8=======D how it fucking looks

Ehm. It just looks like GTA 3 with a little bit higher res textures and nice car reflections :0

edit: yeah. The cars look NICE, but the rest of it is somewhat "meh," especially the character skins.

And come release time, it'll look nothing like that.

I think that is being made by American Mcgee.

But.. I thought he was supposed to be like, good?

Hmmmm it says that he is overseeing this project.

Damn those are some incredible shots, that MUST be CG and not ingame.

Do we know anything more about it yet?
Platform? What year will it come out?

It's made by these guys. Their website is pretty minimal, and it looks like they have less than 10 employees.... I wouldn't be surprised if the game never sees the light of day. Or the gameplay could always be crap.

I just don't see how you can pull a decent game off these days with a group that small.

cars, meh

Indeed.

well once you're old enough to drive, you can start appreciating them more.

it is actually. and even the car looks bland.
to go into odium mode, check out the textures on the buildings. im not even sure if they are textures more than colored faces

cars look allready rather realistic in current racing games. not that good - but as the game is not yet released i don't guess it will still be state of the art then.

the characters are not that great technically but the modeller did a really awesome job.

the background city textures are crap as usual. it seems as if nobody developed a way to model realistic and living cities yet..

but - the mirror image on the truck is awesome!

I'm unable to see them as something more than an instrument that takes me from A to B. They do nothing for me, i've never understood car fascination.

those screenies look stellar

I dont mind the graphics, they look fine to me. But its the art direction, the style thats bugging me. It seems even though the yhave some cool textures nad cool effects, even though they can create photo realistic faces and what not, it still looks a bit too cartoony.

But hey maybe thats the style the ywas going for.

Unortunatly, thats the case with console hype.

What the fuck are you on?
Bad Day L.A. sounds like a frikkin' blast. A typical American McGee piece of mind game. The graphics look awesome IMO. The style makes it look rather odd, but especially this image shows how well they achieved this (european) comic book style of graphics.

I think the problem i have, as i have with all cellshaded comic style games, is that they look to damn sharp. HOWEVER. Those pics were taken off a PC monitor no less. Playing that game on a console, with a TV, will probably look a lot better.

Such a strange choice of style i must say, took me by surprise.
