Three uncompressed Mass Effect review code screens
96
From Gamer.tm: "Those of you left wondering just how detrimental the compression was to the quality of our 149 exclusive Mass Effect screenshots, might be interested to check out these three raw 2MB uncompressed direct screen dumps.
Basically, these shots are the completely untouched images that the debug Xbox 360 throws out when running the Microsoft-supplied screen capture software – this is direct a screenshot as you're ever going to see."

It's a grain filter, kind of like what Battlestar Galactica and Silent Hill games use. You will probably be able to turn it off if it bothers you much.

I dont know about single player but MP looks like ish. If it wasent for the beta and amazing gameplay I would write COD4 off in the graphics department plus it was a beta. But game play comes first. As for this game its the opposite grfx are great but ill have to play it first.

140-53 is just a shame. i've seen better graphics come out of guild wars on a 64mb graphics card. i really hope there was something wrong with the rendering when they took these ss

6 - This game looks horrible... Not graphically
Everything i see of this game just reeks boredom. Talking to NPC characters.. BORING... There combat System... BORING...
And I thought the 360 could run 4xAA, havent seen many games running that.. Matter of fact the almighty Gears of War even has jaggies.
360 is tanking.. So many people who just bought are probably just like WTF.. Just like I am.. 360 was over hyped and people were full of crap.
All the games are buggy, boring, and horribly made. Gears of War is STILL the best game on this console. Mabe Halo 3 could rival just cause of theatre and forge. Certainly not graphically.
Bottom line reviewers lied. People will relize. Microsoft is screwed.
Add this holiday with breaking 360's.. Lots of pist kids and parents..
Oh not to mention the DVD9 issue that supposively WASNT an issue. Just like RROD, 1080p, all the other things Microsoft has lied about.

ha its all in good nature, everyone takes their licks and gets back up, but seriously, comment on the game man, what is your impression of these screenshots, is the fact that the awesome graphics of this game are relegated to the times you sit back and watch extreme closups of the characters and get to choose what they say? Thats some awesome gameplay there.

I don't know...so far there's nothing to prove the "360 is tanking hard".
You can cite technological issues all you want, but if no dev is going to put out a game that's really irresistible before this holiday season it's not good news for the PS3.
Still looking like the 360 is going to win out this holiday season..
Remember, software is where the money is in this business, and week after week the 360 sells twice as many games as the PS3 does.
No matter what issues the 360 or it's game has had to this point, the bottom line is the PS3 isn't topping it.
Now when the heavy hitters like MGS4 and GT5 come up to bat against Halo 3, Gears, Mass Effect, etc.,
hopefully it'll be able to prove itself....it just hasn't happened yet. So don't get too far ahead of yourself.
I know someone out there is keeping up...what PS3 exclusives are coming out before Christmas?

because those are the cutscene interactive dialogue screens, where is the HUD, wehre is the 3rd person view of when you actually PLAY the game, not sit back and watch , read, and push a button. Cmon man, anyone can make cutscenes look awesome, its gameplay that shows what it can do.

I will be making a shout out to you too when Mass Effect reviews drop in. Wait and see.
As a matter of fact, you don't even have to wait! Just head by Gamespot, IGN, 1up, Gametrailers, etc. and actually WATCH one of ME's gameplay movies/trailers.
I hear your Shepard calling... oh, wait- that's me. Your shepard. Now move along to the green, PS3 only pastures where its safe.

I am far from blind...I just have a thing for great games, I guess...I'll play the Uncharted's and other games this fall, come back in early January, and tell you what the best LOOKING game of the holiday season is, no problem man...but, right now, all I want to do is grab my 360 controller and play a GREAT game...is that asking for too much? Nah...and I'll also tell you my pick for game of the year...

21.4 - Thank God,
we have somebody w/ sense in this thread.
I couldn't have said it better myself, jc- Gameinformer has indeed spoken and their words for ME are nothing but praise. So, you can pile up the bad images- I won't care. I'll be playing the game for REAL.
GOTY, period.
edit:
lol! the armada is coming. Scurry while you can fanboys... you can talk about PROD, Halo 640P, or even how COD4 will look better on PS3 than Xbox.
but, you CANNOT talk about Mass Effect. At least, not without some repercussions... so, in this case, reviews are your worst friends. Just wait and see.

25 - There's nothing like 3 "uncompressed" images
to get the mind of sony fanboys working. Hard.
Speaking of fanboys, hi Smokey! I must have noticed you somewhere in this thread... I mean you only used ALL your 5 bubbles in the course of 30 minutes. Nice. It seems like someone has been meaning to wag his paw for quite a while now doesn't it? I mean, I'm not surprised to see Whil4ire, not one bit- but Smokey? Dear me, the emotions people bottle up inside can drive anybody wild, I guess.
Next time, why don't you try to use more subtlety before posting like a jack rabbit with a carrot strapped over its head. That way, when Mass Effect reviews drop in and they're all stellar- you can act as if you didn't really care. Its too late now, though. NOW, as soon as I get the first ME review online- you'll be the first person I shout out to. Expecting an answer.
