Halo 3: CGI vs Gameplay Comparison

Side by side graphics comparison of the recently released Halo 3 screenshots and the CGI trailer that was released a while back. At least based on the images, the game holds up quite well in comparison.

differnet angles diffent backgrounds

this is a waste of ur life

comparing screen shots and CGI trailers

why dont you wait till the game is out then compare it to Halo2!

Hit disagree if ur a total Halo Fanatic! Few more days and we will all know the truth

Lightning Mr Bubbles6101d ago

Halo 3 is a first person shooter, if you're looking at Master Chief then it's not a real gameplay footage.

Dannagar6101d ago (Edited 6101d ago )

The game actually plays in 3rd person if you pick up certain weapons.

Hugh Hefner6101d ago

The camera in Halo 3 is detachable... so you can go into 3rd person view and take pics.

Go away. Nobody cares about your opinion.

Look at the current third / fourth gen games like Halo3 and Ninja Gaiden 2, and you can see that the xbox360 has maxed out graphically. They look pretty similar or even worse than first gen titles from the PS3 such as Motorstorm and Ninja Gaiden Sigma that's a remake port made by a branched off bunch of unimportant kids inexeperienced with the PS3. With an important title like Halo3, you'd think Microsoft would make a giant graphicall leap. But they couldn't.

Grand Turimso 5 is only the beginning for the PS3, and you can tell that no xbox360 game ever will graphically compare. It'll only get better and better, wheras the XBOX360 has had two to three years already and there has been no sign of a graphical breakthrough at all. Grand Turismo 5 is a graphical breakthrough as Motostorm. I'd argue that the xbox360 cannot do Motostorm with all it's dust and mud and particle effects and lighting and physics.

xbox360 is a 60mph car. PS3 is a 200-600 mph Lamborghinni beast. Microsoft plays dirty and changes laws and rules so that all cars faster than it must run at near 60mph so that it would be "fair" to them. They also place sneaky roadblocks and other dirty tricks along the way. But that is bad for ALL gamers. Because graphics will be capped off at 60mph instead of 600mph for this gen unless the PS3 finds a way to counter the bad people...

Microsoft has committed the crime of knowingly releasing faulty hardware to the public.

Microsoft has committed the crime of restricting all graphics power to their maximum level, which is pretty low.

Micrsofot and xbots have committed the crime of unethical business practices as you see in this room and through bribed media and secret handshakes.

All gamers suffer because of the xbox360 because all graphics are being capped off at 60mph when it should be 600mph or more this generation. We'll have to wait and see if the PS3 can outmanuever the unethical practices of their competition. You only resort to dirty tricks if you feel you cannot win fair and square.

I do not believe that this gen should be capped off at 60mph with the xbox360. ALL GAMERS SHOULD REBEL AGAINST THIS, EVEN THE XBOTS.

This is a waste of time! Its obvious Halo 3 does not live up to the CGI just like all other games!

nobizlikesnowbiz6101d ago

Secret stop spamming every Xbox360 thread with your shat.

SonySoldiers6101d ago (Edited 6101d ago )

They can't beat our trailers! That's so lame.. they should compare our trailers with theirs. Ours always win.

SECRET U ARE WRONG! Xbox is a product by the USA, so like US automobiles.. xbox doesn't deliver. Playstation is made in Japan, so it rules!

Just don't use your US cars analogy for the mighty Playstation 3! It just doesn't sound right.

reaferfore206100d ago

If you take into consideration that most american car companies have their cars manufactured in Mexico to reduce labor costs and that Japanese car companies have their cars manufactured in the US for the same reason, your analogy is kind of flawed.
IMO all games shouldn't use cgi cutscenes at all. They've reached the point where they can make the gameplay look good enough to do whatever they need to for the cutscenes in a game. The Metal Gear Solid series is a prime example. Every cutscene you see in those games are real time in engine. More games should follow in suit in this practice to get rid of these stupid CGI vs. Gameplay comparisons. Come this monday I won't care if the gameplay lives up to the CGI. I'll be too busy mowing down tards and noobs to care about petty things like this.

RadientFlux6101d ago

it seems that Bungie was telling the truth the CGI trailer was using game assets (ie 3D models). With the screen shots they use I can't tell the difference.

BUM6101d ago

I agree with you. There is a little difference.

projectile6101d ago

The spartan armor is a simple model so comparing it to CGI and ingame would yield little difference.
I think the reason it looks the way it does was because it brought good performance on the regular xbox.
What I really care about is how it plays.

reaferfore206100d ago

Yeah they do look almost alike. Can't wait!!!

jay36101d ago

There is a bit of a difference, but not really that much, the CG trailer was a more gritty.

iNcRiMiNaTi6101d ago (Edited 6101d ago )

in the CGI master chiefs armor looks like its scratched up from battle, but in the game its shiny and new like mr. clean polished master chief

Kirderf6101d ago

great comment with that picture! XD lmfao

nobizlikesnowbiz6101d ago

I think CGI looks a lot better. But thats because it's CGI. Using models and whatnot.

At least Bungie didn't claim that this was in-game footage...cough cough Killzone 2.

iNcRiMiNaTi6101d ago (Edited 6101d ago )

damn....i wanted to say that

AliC6101d ago

-- At least Bungie didn't claim that this was in-game footage...cough cough Killzone 2.

When did they say this?

As I recall the E3 2005, was a video done by Sony to show what potentially was possible with the Playstation 3 it wasn't actually running off any graphics engine and was produced the same way most CGI videos are done.

sticky doja6101d ago (Edited 6101d ago )

http://www.gameklip.net/v/1...

"Sony Computer Entertainment of America's Vice President, Jack Tretton, lies that E3 2005 Killzone footage was realtime and playable. A year later the truth is revealed on SpikeTV's Gamehead by a studio contacted by Sony to create the prerendered footage of Killzone for PS3."

Edit: Here's another one for you

http://www.gamespot.com/new...

RUMOR #1: The Killzone PlayStation 3 tech demo was prerendered.

"So how does Sony respond to the allegations? Far from being evasive, it met them head-on. "Yes, it is real time," a rep told GameSpot."

Rageaholic6101d ago

mentioned it was in game graphics,

they just showed the video and ppl assumed or pushed the issue that it was in game.

But what they did say was the game will have a similar feel like in the CGI video first shown on e3

Now going back to halo, i've been to the futureshop a few times and they were showing a video (low res though) on in game graphics and gameplay, if those are the graphics they are pretty behind gears of war.

Sangheili856101d ago

Did you not watch the Video from sticky doja? Jack Tretton says it's real time and playable. I love games as much as the next gamer ps3 or 360 but you can't stick up for Sony's Lies. They have said more lies then any company. Face it Sony thinks by telling lies to their customers they will might sale an extra ps3 or so. I personally don't listen to Sony or MS. I just play the system and see whats good.

Spinitus6101d ago

and look how awesome killzone 2 looks now. u xbots got Killzowned.

DeadIIIRed6101d ago

Bungie did claim they used the in-game engine for this trailer so...pfffffft jog on.

reaferfore206100d ago

I do seem to remember someone telling me that the cgi video for Halo was real-time. Either way, it looks close enough that I really don't care. Same with Killzone. Luckily for me I'm going to be able to play both of these games and have fun while doing so. Too bad there's so many people out there that don't think they can enjoy one or the other just because it's not on their system...

Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.

Kaii146d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies146d ago

Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?

DrDoomer184d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog184d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned184d ago

I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*

Husker42c184d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb184d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies184d ago (Edited 184d ago )

Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.

Abnor_Mal184d ago (Edited 184d ago )

Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.

The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.

darthv72183d ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman184d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows183d ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.

Xbox 360 Turns 18: Three Cheers to Live, Halo, and Red Rings

The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.

darthv72195d ago

Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.

isarai195d ago

The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.

TheBrainZ195d ago

So many brilliant games. I still have one stored somewhere.

LG_Fox_Brazil195d ago

I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces
