First Matrix screens!

Shadow_Link · 01-16-2002, 03:41 PM

They look amazing. Though they only show off the back grounds, you can see the game is coming along very nicely, atleast on the visual front...

Reported by Cube-Europe

I wonder what the character models will look like?

First we find out the game is on its way, now it is time to learn more. ... the first screenshots of the upcoming game for the GameCube: The Matrix!

We have uncovered some interesting shots of what seemed to be in-game backgrounds. If the rest of the game looks even half as good as this, this could be a graphical treat of a gam

They look nice, but...

1: I thought the games were coming out on XBox?

2: I don't really pay much attention to these shots that only show like the enviornments, cuz it seems like sometimes in the final game they don't end up looking as good as they do in the early screenshots they use to show off what the game could look like...

but if those are actual shots and the games will look like that... they're nice...

Well, actually the game is coming out on the Gc, why would a Gamecube site report it?

It was confirmed quite a while ago actually.

I can understand what you are saying about the screens though. Anyways...

Ya, they look pretty sweet, i know i have heard some rumors about it. When is the game slated for release?

Snake · 01-16-2002, 05:39 PM

Hmmm..

These screens tell almost nothing about the game...

Neo · 01-16-2002, 05:48 PM

It's coming out for both systems, but the Xbox version has extra features like the actual actors' voices.

Gambit_X · 01-16-2002, 05:57 PM

I hadn't heard about the extra features in the Xbox version, but I knew it was exclusive to it for six months. It would actually make more sense to me if the extra stuff was on the GameCube version, as they have the extra six months to complete it.

I actually thought it was coming to all three systems, but maybe I'm just messed up in the head.

Anyway, yeah, the game looks really good, graphically. Good movie. I hope it'll be a good game.

I too thought it was coming out for all three, then I heard the exclusive Xbox stuffs, so I guess that would be the six month thing and that confused me, but what about PS2?

Neo · 01-16-2002, 07:31 PM

The extra features are exclusive to the Xbox. The 6 month waiting period before releasing to the other consoles was also part of the deal.

BreakABone · 01-16-2002, 08:02 PM

Well I mean look at Neo....

Look at all those baddies....

That game looks hard as hell

I really don't care much for non character pics

Well... think about the disk space.... I if it uses more than a Gig for voices, I wouldn't want compressed ones on the Cube version

The_Dunadan · 01-16-2002, 09:31 PM

those just cutscenes?

Why? You wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

Reason: There isn't any. It's decompressed on the fly so all you hear is the sound as it was meant to be heard.

They could be, but I don't think so, they look like backgrounds from the real game.

Xantar · 01-17-2002, 11:52 AM

Actually, for some reason those backgrounds don't blow me away. The texture work doesn't look that great. Of course, I'm not a techhead, so maybe I'm pulling this out of you know where.

In any case, the backgrounds are aesthetically pleasing, but I don't know how technically impressive they are.
