Possible PS3 preview...

[MuGen]

Dark Sector Trailer Released- 02/04/04

Digital Extremes have released a trailer and screenshots of their next generation game Dark Sector. According to the Ontario-based developer, the sci-fi action game will be released on "next-generation consoles". However Digital Extremes representatives would not reveal whether or not the game would be released on Sony's PlayStation 3 or Microsoft's Xbox Next or both. The scenes shown in the trailer are made up of in-engine graphics, not prerendered CG. We must stress that the game is not being run on a PS3 and the graphics are just based on the predictedpower of the Next Gen consoles. Check out the Dark Sector teaser-trailer on the Dark Sector website Here. The slick-looking preview shows a high-tech commando evading armoured guards inside a space station.

The trailer is here.

If what I see in the darkSector trailer is true that it is IN-GAME graphics, then PS3 or Xbox Next looks promising... lets hope it comes out for both and we're all happy campers.

EPIC TECH DEMO

NV40 technology

we actually get details about the tech and stuff. The darksector just shows some fancy lighting and not much else.

wow... I wonder how long it took to make the game look like that. Next gen if a developer wants to get the most out of a console it's going to have to have a pretty damn long development cycle...

yea that Unreal 3 engine is some VERY very good looking stuff.

The rumor was that the darksector demo was running on an earlier version of the Unreal 3 engine. (obviously without the nv40 chip) dunno if that ever turned out to be true or not. But intersting because DE is part of the group that makes unreal.

it depends on how thier done really. the engine takes the longest to make. and many games share the same engine. After you got that basic graphics engine the game would prolly take about the average of new games today to develope.
