I have to agree with Gambit here. The pictures for the Gc version just don't do the game any justice, it must be down to the capturing methods, I don't know, it just looks tons better in video form! And that is where you can appreicate the lighting, textures etc..

Well, even looking at the older shots of ED for GCN, I say it's still a pretty ulgy looking game to be for a next gen console.

ED for N64 looks great to be a last gen game...

Personally, I think that the character model in the GC version looks a bit too "unfinished." Other than that, the rest of the room looks like something similar to something from Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine on the N64.....it will probably look better by launch.

IMO, it looks good. Aslo, i'd like to second what DH said. It doesn't matter if it's radiosity lighting, it's not like I'll notice it when I'm playing it.

People we talked soo much as how we don't care of graphics and that we want fun and good stories. Well we have here a game with a story that people talk to be epic, like never before etc. Now even if that's all bull, it's still got to be the best story game ever out of all the Nintendo games.

Plus reports say that everything in the game is conected, even graphics, so they use less polygons in some cases and real-time cut scenes, and in another case they use all they can get and FMV cut-scenes, just to keep the story as fluid as posible.

IN either case, the game could be ugly (for me) if it can deliver in all the rest that I heard about it.

And I totally agree. The game looks to be the most ambitious project to date. It'll have an awesome storyline, fluid gameplay, and great puzzles. I don't see what's not to like about the game. I just thought I'd show off the lighting in the new screenshots.

Sorry, but people can't like a game until they've played it

Hopefully I can gets mine on the first day it comes out though... If I has the moneyz... I know I used to say I thought it would be dissapointing, but then I got my gamecube and especially with the drought of good games I got more into it and now it sounds kinda cool... although I think some of these impressions may make it sound better than it is

then again, the only games I think will be totally amazingly awesome are ones that are part of a series that I like...

I've played the Cube Club demo. Meaning that I can like the gameplay and puzzles shown there. And if I liked it there, it's been improved. So I'll probably like them more.

The only part I might have an excuse to not have down is the story. But then, I've done so much research into it that I kind of have a minor understanding of how big the game is and how it's going to go down.

It's like somebody saying before it's out that they're going to like Metal Gear Solid 2. If you did research on it, and played the demo, you probably will have a good grasp on whether or not you're going to like it or not.

You can say you're not sure. Because you haven't done the research I've done on it. But I've got a good compilation of information on ED. I think I know enough about the game to make an intelligent assumption as to if the game is for me or not.

Not exactly... MGS2 is a sequal that looks like the origanal.... and that is enough to come to a conclusion on weather youy will like it or not. ED is an origanal game, but sense it has a demo you can also predict that game. (but the problem is, not many have played the demo)

Oh god, I hope you just know what you started...Lol.

ED is quite the good looking game. The screenshots don't do it justice, but on the other hand, do people really pay attention to lighting? I mean, look at all the people in this thread who were oblivious to the lighting. I believe someone even commented they liked the N64 version BETTER because it was DARKER. It's all a matter of opinion really. Radiocity lighting sure sounds impressive, but when nobody notices, it is kinda wasted.

Gotta comment on how bad I am drooling about now...

the thing about "Radiocity lighting" is that it can only probably be seen in motion...
