Superman Returns videogame screenshot!!

[Mentok]

Awesome pics :up:

But who is that man in green plate? :confused:

Its the www.gamespy.com logo. It is not in the game.

[Cinemaman]

Its the www.gamespy.com (http://www.gamespy.com) logo. It is not in the game.

THANX.

[AME]

OH I GOT IT, it's like situation signal, like during different parts of the game they will have different sepreate things like, disaster, enemy, having to save people.

And that guy in the plate looks like thug of some sort, so they use that for the enemy symbol.

Anybody follow along?

lol all this comotion around a simple Gamespy logo

This game looks freakin' awsome. Can't wait to see the trailer.

[The Punisher]

Not really lol, I can wait.

Fine. Have it your way LOL.

Lookin forward to this game tho, glad its comin on the ps2.

Any Clark Kent stuff that anyone knows of to do in the game?

Its Metallo 2.0. From what I understand you beat him then he builds this giant "Shell" to fight you with.

[Mentok]

2 more days till the trailer... Just a pity it wont have any/much gameplay footage in it.

Is that a definate? At least it will give me a fix though.

[TheBat812]

i think it will be gamplayesque, meaning you will perform those moves and such, but it will be presented as a movie/cutscene.

[millennium movies]

Why do they never show his face? (superman)
Im really curious to see how accurate they made it. So far from the pictures you can actualy even see the texture on his cape.

[Kabuki_Jo]

are we gonna see this in the movie??

http://www.pro-g.co.uk/images/ps2/superman_returns_the_videogame/screens/superman_returns_the_videogame_1.jpg

I don't think so. It would be too cool for Singer to do it.

[Casius--J]

Its Metallo 2.0. From what I understand you beat him then he builds this giant "Shell" to fight you with.


Oh ok, makes sense now.

[Showtime]

I thought I posted those a little bit back and they were old?

Those are frickin' sweet. I wonder how this game will look for PS2. Those are 360 screenshots right?

I don't know if that is good or bad & I don't know who it is good or bad for? :eek:

[Mike]

Metallo and Metropolis look awesome, but Superman looks too rubery for 360's standards.

[Chaos Bringer]

looks super.
erm. well, it does...

[Mentok]

Trailer, Trailer, Trailer.

[Mentok]

One hour to go.

[Cinemaman]

What? :eek:

One hour to go?

[Super Kal]

the trailer comes out at 9am PST...

[Bad Superman]

I hope the trailer is detailed AKA long. :D

[Super Kal]

I hope we get to hear some dialogue.... the triler itself will be in Quicktime format.

[Showtime]

I hope we get to hear some dialogue.... the triler itself will be in Quicktime format.

I hope for that as well. It's the real voices from the actors I would imagine right?

[Bad Superman]

This game will be released in both PS2 and PS3?

[Cinemaman]

This game will be released in both PS2 and PS3?

PS2 - Yes.

PS3 - Maybe.

PS2 - Yes.

PS3 - Maybe.

Not PS3, thats been confirmed.

Not PS3, thats been confirmed.

Yah? I didn't know it.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Its Up At Blue Tights. Go Now.

[Spider-jedi]

the game trailer is on ign

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Hummm. Short. I wonder if that's the actual theme from the movie.

[I Am The Knight]

Yeah, the theme kinda blows, but no, not really. Anyway, that was cool. I love how he destoyed public property to fight Ultraman. I mean Metallo.

[Superman4ever]

Here's another:

http://www.bluetights.net/gallery/albums/videogame/cadmus_creature_01.jpg

[Superman \S/]

I saw that pic hopfully the detail will be better considering they still have 3 months left to perfect it. but it's an awesome pic and i like how his laser beams are yellow! Shows he has the power of the sun!

[Metropolis_Man]

I saw that pic hopfully the detail will be better considering they still have 3 months left to perfect it. but it's an awesome pic and i like how his laser beams are yellow! Shows he has the power of the sun!


Yeah, I love the way the whole game looks. The city, metallo, everything. I just hope a little more detail goes into Superman himself. Other than that the game looks fantastic and I can't wait for it.

[Mentok]

Superman still seems quite low res... weird. The bad guys are well done but superman needs more detail and work.

[SuperDaniel]

What? Thats so stupid....why does he have power bars? I want to play a game where Superman is invunerable...I hope the power bars recharges automatically...

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Yeah, but Superman actually looks better in that pic. And I don't think it's his res per say but his texture quality that's the culprit.

[Mentok]

What? Thats so stupid....why does he have power bars? I want to play a game where Superman is invunerable...I hope the power bars recharges automatically...

Its stamina, not power.

[Mentok]

Nice... the creature is from Cadmus Labs. :up:

[Showtime]

What exactly is it, a snare beast I read in another post?

That is strange about the character definition of Superman.

[Superman \S/]

Yeah, I love the way the whole game looks. The city, metallo, everything. I just hope a little more detail goes into Superman himself. Other than that the game looks fantastic and I can't wait for it.

Supes looks fine i liked the way he looked in the trailer. All i'm saying is he needs more definition for his body. But i'm sure they'll fix it with more detail.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

They need to fix his trunks as well. Looks like he's wearing boxers instead of tighty-reddies.

[Superman \S/]

Indeed they do. :up:

[Wilde]

Here's another:

http://www.bluetights.net/gallery/albums/videogame/cadmus_creature_01.jpg

Looks cool!

[Showtime]

You can see the texture on the suit.

[Showtime]

....and the cape.

[Metropolis_Man]

....and the cape.


Yes! I think in the game trailer you could hear the cape flapping when he would fly by close to the screen. Thats a good small addition, I don't remember any other game having that.

[Showtime]

This should clear some of our reservations up about the resolution in regards to the character of Superman:

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/10407/Superman-Returns-Visual-Target-Image/

EA released today a new image of Superman Returns: The Videogame. This time it's a "visual target" image, which mean it is not yet an in-game screenshot but should give us a good idea of what the final game will look like on Xbox 360.

Inspired by the upcoming Warner Bros. Pictures feature film and more than 60 years of DC Comics’ lore, Superman Returns: The Videogame will create the ultimate open-world super hero experience. In the game you explore and protect the truly living city of Metropolis — one that is not only expansive (with 80 sq miles and over 9,000 buildings), but also changes dynamically with you as you affect gameplay. Citizens will run away in terror from newly-erupting danger and also exit their cars to cheer and snap photos as you fly overhead to save them.

Nice detective work sir!! I'm glad this is cleared up a bit. The final product will probably have him looking very nice. I also like the fact that people take pictures and they cheer you on, I'm liking this game more and more!

[Showtime]

People taking photos was actually taken from another computer game, some sim game, but I dont know what.

[Metropolis_Man]

Well, I must say, its a definate good steal....err borrow!!

[Showtime]

I think it was roller coaster tycoon.

[Metropolis_Man]

Maybe as an option after you beat the level, you can take a look at some of the snap shops the crowd took of you. It'd be a neat little addition to the game.

[Showtime]

That would be pretty tight, I think actually you see your shots in the Planet right?

[Metropolis_Man]

Yeah, I bet thats where they come up. You can look at a newspaper that was just printed and see all the news going on, maybe that even helps you figure out what you're supposed to do.

[Showtime]

That is a great little feature.

[Metropolis_Man]

I think that maybe some part of the game. It would be very cool. To make the game even more like you are Superman and it'd be a fun gameplay.

[Superman \S/]

Yeah, I bet thats where they come up. You can look at a newspaper that was just printed and see all the news going on, maybe that even helps you figure out what you're supposed to do.

That would be a great feature. :up:

[Metropolis_Man]

And in this feature, you're as Clark, and you get to walk around the Daily Panet, go into Perrys office, talk to Jimmy or Lois, would it be too much to put in there? I think not, I think it would help expand the world of Superman and make it that much more fun to play.

that would be so cool! I can imagine entering the spinning door and just seeing everyone walking and just live it would be super. And to enter all the upper levels heck even go on a balcony and maybe change into Superman! So many ideas lol.

[Showtime]

It would be great if you could go undercover as Clark so you could accomplish some detective work for your missions.

[Metropolis_Man]

Man, now I'm going to be disappointed if its not there! Haha. And thats another good idea Showtime. Going around as Clark trying to find some leads to crimes going on in the city, stuff to help you find Metallo.

[Showtime]

That would make the game even more in depth. I hope get some more news soon.

[Superman \S/]

It would be great if you could go undercover as Clark so you could accomplish some detective work for your missions.

That would be so cool. To solve crimes around Metropolis as a journalist very very cool.

[Metropolis_Man]

We'll probably be getting a lot more of the game news before any of the movie news.

[Superman \S/]

BT said very soon we'll be getting video game news. Could be so. :up:

[Metropolis_Man]

Did you say something earlier that there will be more villains announced too? And its possible a General Zod could be there?

[Showtime]

Tell Justin to hook us up with some news.

[Showtime]

I was hoping for Zod and company, but who knows. Maybe Nuclearman.

[Mr. Thing]

I was hoping for Zod and company, but who knows. Maybe Nuclearman.

"No, You have my voice."

"Must destroy Superman"

I feel sorry for that guy, thats the only movie role he ever had. I think?

[Mr. Thing]

"Must destroy Superman"

I feel sorry for that guy, thats the only movie role he ever had. I think?

3 roles, and his last one was a russian tv series. I looked him up on IMDB.

[Showtime]

He was lucky to get 3 roles.

[Metropolis_Man]

3 roles, and his last one was a russian tv series. I looked him up on IMDB.


Haha, IMDB never fails. Sucks being the big villain in Superman 4 and not even being able to use your own voice.

[BrollySupersj]

Mark Pillow...lol I think he's cool. NuclearMan was my favorite "movie" superman villain.

[Metropolis_Man]

Nuclear man was definately the best typical comic style villain. So was the whole story of four, thats why I don't find it so bad, but its still pretty much a downhill battle through the whole thing.

[Mr. Thing]

Yeah, those tights were pretty bad-ass.

[The Punisher]

I really didn't like Nuclear Man.

[Showtime]

What about the first Nuclearman, he was pretty spiffy.

[Mr. Thing]

The Gary Glitter one?

[Metropolis_Man]

The Gary Glitter one?

http://superman.ws/fos/thescreen/quest/NuclearMan_1.jpg

Hahahahahahaha!They better add this missing footage to those new releases of the old Superman movies. I gotta see what this guy was like.

[Showtime]

He was more like a glitzed up Frankenstein than a supervillian.

[Metropolis_Man]

Yeah, thats it, Herman Munster on broadway.

[Showtime]

^^Wasn't Herman Munster really on Broadway?

[Masut]

The Gary Glitter one?

http://superman.ws/fos/thescreen/quest/NuclearMan_1.jpg

[Metropolis_Man]

^^Wasn't Herman Munster really on Broadway?

Herman Munster the character, or the guy that played him in the series? I think that guy was the judge in My Cousin Vinny.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Uh WTF are you guys talking about?? Who is that guy??:confused:

[Metropolis_Man]

Uh WTF are you guys talking about?? Who is that guy??:confused:

He was the original Nuclear Man. Luthor made him first and failed. I believe all the footage of him was taken out to shorten the length of the movie.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Really? That pic is the guy?? Wow....

Thx for the info!

[Showtime]

The actor, for some reason I thought he was on Broadway.

*UPDATE*

Its from IGN.com's PS2 section... dont know if that nakes a difference since its a 'target render'

[Showtime]

Saw that one already, but in a smaller version. It is only a target render, and it probably is PS2. Don't worry.

The \S/ Looks alot like the returns design.

[batman44]

What platform is that for?

[explode7]

^Hell NO!

[Ita-KalEl]

What platform is that for?

PC and Playstation.

[Wilde]

^Hell NO!

Yes, it does. The design is VERY similar.

[Wilde]

PC and Playstation.

Playstation?

[explode7]

But the S isn't raisd and the S is also bigger.

[Ita-KalEl]

Playstation?

Playstation 2 and XBOX :)

[Wilde]

But the S isn't raisd and the S is also bigger.

He didn't say it was. He said it looks like the SR design. And it does.

[Metropolis_Man]

That is nice!! Looks like some really good stuff going on in that. I'll definately be picking it up. Whens the release date?

[Mentok]

Edit.

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Looks like the same old symbol to me. I don't see enough to make me think SR influenced it. It's just yet another one of a million variations.

[Metropolis_Man]

I like the fact that its not based from the Justice Leauge cartoon. I like the way the characters look. Is the Flash or Green Lantern not going to be in it?

[Mentok]

I like the fact that its not based from the Justice Leauge cartoon. I like the way the characters look. Is the Flash or Green Lantern not going to be in it?

Flash and Zantanna are the other two characters in teh game.

[Masut]

Why don't IGN have any screenshots at all for this game?

[Mentok]

Bescause the magazine has the exclusive?

[IKnowSomeJudo]

Flash and Zantanna are the other two characters in teh game.Green Lantern is mentioned as well in the article.

[Cinemaman]

I will buy only SR game, for me it is enough.

[Captain Villa]

That's my type of Superman.

:up:

[SANSHORYU]

Those in-game look like they were pulled out of the character builder in Freedom Force, especially Batman. I mean... look at that tiny cape!

[Mr. Thing]

:up:

BTW, I love the look of Routh and the SR suit, just incase you got the wrong impression. :o

[Superman \S/]

Cool that game looks alright. I'll probably get it but SR comes first!

[Sverdlovski]

Proportionally, the |S| symbol is about the same size as the Returns symbol. It goes from nipple to nipple.

[Superman \S/]

True it does look like the one for SR. It looks great.

[Showtime]

I am so getting that game.

[Thunder Emperor]

Because every game by EA sucks? I'm sure they've shifted a few units with other players who'd disagree with you. It's not like they can do any worse to Superman than what's already been done before. There is nowhere to go but up when you've hit rock bottom.

[Mentok]

Not all EA games suck, but a scary ammount do.

[Michael Corleone]

Its interesting to see that you prejudge something that hasnt even been finished yet. You also seem to think everything we have seen so far is a finished product. Besides...gameplay makes a real videogame..not the stunning graphics. If it has the gameplay of something like spiderman or spiderman 2 and looks like this...I'll play it and a lot of other people will too.

Exactly, Spiderman and the sequel were amazing gaming experiences. I think Superman is going to be better only because you are going to be able to explore the entire city immediately.

[Compi716]

Hmm...a lot of these new pictures don't exactly look to be Next-Gen material. I hope that the recent pictures are from the Xbox version, and NOT from the Xbox 360 version.

Hmm...a lot of these new pictures don't exactly look to be Next-Gen material. I hope that the recent pictures are from the Xbox version, and NOT from the Xbox 360 version.

Its not being made for the original xbox I believe. But that also doesnt change the fact that everyone keeps thinking these are final screenshots from the game while in gameplay. They are prerendered shots. I have no idea what the final product will look like, but it wont look like this.

[JackBauer]

Because every game by EA sucks?

let me rephrase that: every superhero game by EA sucks.

[Metropolis_Man]

I think the game looks quite well in its state now, finished or not. Its certainly the best looking Superman game I've seen thus far. Don't be too quick to judge, this is possibly the big game we've been anticipating

How many have they done? Seriously. And no, I'm not being sarcastic.:O

[Thunder Emperor]

let me rephrase that: every superhero game by EA sucks.


thank you,

[Thunder Emperor]

Its interesting to see that you prejudge something that hasnt even been finished yet. You also seem to think everything we have seen so far is a finished product. Besides...gameplay makes a real videogame..not the stunning graphics. If it has the gameplay of something like spiderman or spiderman 2 and looks like this...I'll play it and a lot of other people will too.


Spiderman was made by activision not EA, ig difference. Most EA titles suck. Their superhero games are just terrible. Yes gameplay makes a game what it is over graphics, but if you want gameplay get Nintendo, and if you want graphics get Ubisoft on this baby. What I am saying, its EA don't expect much.

[Thunder Emperor]

Its not being made for the original xbox I believe. But that also doesnt change the fact that everyone keeps thinking these are final screenshots from the game while in gameplay. They are prerendered shots. I have no idea what the final product will look like, but it wont look like this.


The problem is that fro prerendered shots they look hideous. Hey most Ps2 prerenderd shots look 3x better than that. and if that prerendered, then the final build will look worse.

[Mentok]

The problem is that fro prerendered shots they look hideous.

Yes, they do. The last few are made using information from the PS2 version. Even the X360 based ones were quite poor.

Hey most Ps2 prerenderd shots look 3x better than that.

That because they are developed properly by japanese developers to use in games. This is just taking a bunch of data from unfinished code and sticking it into a program to 'pose' the shot.

and if that prerendered, then the final build will look worse.

Not true at all.

Come on man you know EA, and what prerenders are, that is your target visual image you are trying to hit, which EA never does. Look at madden 06 for the 360. didn't even get close to it. A western developer that should have made this game is Ubosoft. the **** would have looked good and played well, heck the should have made the batman begins game and ran it on the splinter cell engine

[musclesforsupes]

Will Bluetights be confirming the costume selecting ability? Like in Man Of Steel for Xbox?

[siggy_freud]

Just an FYI . . . EA isn't making the game. They are publishing it. A company called Tiburon is developing the game.

Kinda like how Warner Bros. isn't making Superman, Bryan Singer is. Warner is just publishing it.

[Mentok]

Yes, we know but the developer is called 'EA Tiburon'.

I still got good hopes for this game, I mean DID YOU SEE THE DRAGONS!!

[Spider-jedi]

the dragons do look cool

[BrollySupersj]

Of course they do, trust me. The makers of this game know what they are doing.

[Superman4ever]

Well here's a really great article about the game...

http://www.bluetights.net/news.php?id=242

In our continuing behind the scenes coverage of the development of Superman Returns: The Video Game, we start this time with more great conceptual art for the city of Metropolis. The model to the right is a large plaster mockup of the gameplay area created by the game's Art Director. The model represents an area slightly larger than the area which you can play in as Superman. The large island towards the middle of the model is Metropolis itself, surrounded on all sides by water.


http://www.bluetights.net/gallery/albums/videogame/Metropolis/model_002.jpg

This second model is a more detailed version of the city itself, designed to give game programmers an idea of the sheer density of the city they're dealing with. The model also illustrates how the city was designed to be experienced vertically. Instead of everything existing on a single plane, the island is made up of multiple tiers, allowing for varied and interesting flight experiences as you soar around the city you've sworn to protect. Below you can view three details of the Metropolis model, constructed of plaster and balsa wood.

http://www.bluetights.net/gallery/albums/videogame/Metropolis/model_001.jpg

...Being the first open world game to allow the player to move vertically and horizontally, Metropolis is specifically designed for fun at all levels. Objects at all levels are interactive. You can pick up cars to hurl at your enemies, or fly to the top of the GNN building and commandeer one of their broadcasting satellite dishes for the greater good of distributing beat-downs to villains in need.

Metropolis is more than just your sanbox in this game, though. It's your constant mission. [I]As Superman, you're sworn to protect the people of this great city. Previous games have always given Superman a life meter, and we all know that simply won't do for Superman. Staying true to the ways of the comics, in Superman Returns: The Video Game, you're not fighting for your own life, but for those in the city around you. As you battle your opponents, a "City Health" meter on your screen monitors how much damage they are inflicting on their surroundings.
With Metropolis fate always at stake, you're forced to make the REAL decisions of a Superman. No more can you afford to play it safe to recharge your health and fight another day. You will be faced constantly with decisions that seperate the boys from the Supermen. For example - you fly across a burning building in suicide slums, but Metallo it terrorizing the business district uptown, and the fire-fighters are stuck in traffic 4 blocks away. You can deal with the fire yourself while Metallo continues to destroy the city, and thus lower the "City Health" meter, or you can pick up the fire truck, place them at the fire, and then rush off to deal with the larger threats that take a "super" touch. By making Metropolis the center of attention, Superman Returns: The Video Game aims to deliver on their promise of letting the player be Superman like never before. Stay tuned to BlueTights.net in the coming weeks for more coverage of the game and it's development.

[MatchesMalone]

Yo have got to be kidding me right, this i scurrent gen I presume. EA why, why di d WB go with EA

You're kidding, right? Do you know the sheer amount of data needed to make Metropolis a free-flowing sandbox environment that you can traverse completely and do anything in? And you're complaining about the graphics?

I'd gladly sacrifice a few shaders and high def texture maps for a completely free-roaming destructible environment in which to play the game. It's like saying Grand Theft Auto sucks because the graphics aren't photo-realistic. Give me a break.

The screens look like total ass and if the missions are not fun - then this sandbox game won't work, Spider-MAN 2 is a perfect example. While it was fun to swing around as Spidey , the actual game itself wasn't fun.

Yeah! I really hate that kid's cry for help. It sounds so fake because it's a woman doing that baby crying sound. I always swing away from it... at full speed!

Spidey 2 was pretty fun for me. I still play it every once in a while just to swing around and stop runaway drivers and stuff. Just exploring the city is a LOT of fun.

Of course, I think Halo is a hackneyed rip-off of Unreal, so what do I know?

[Showtime]

I still screw around with Spiderman 2 as well. I love the enviornment. I think we'll get something similar to GTA and Spiderman 2 but with the ability to free roam right of the bat.

[Spider-jedi]

I tried to kill the kid.

i also tried many times

im still trying

That isn't big! Looks about the size of Manhattan or something. Maybe you aren't looking at it right.

[Gold Samurai]

http://www.bluetights.net/gallery/albums/videogame/Metropolis/model_001.jpg

if its this big it will beat the pants off "Ultimate Spidermans'" new york

[Spider-jedi]

it wont beat the size of gta san andreas

[SolidSnakeMGS]

Spider-Man doesn't have the range of Superman though. So you need a good sized city for him to have room.

Here's a sat photo of Manhattan for reference:

[SolidSnakeMGS]

^ No problem!

I just made that myself. I wanted to see if the videogame model was the same as the area that Superman flies towards at the end of the teaser and I was happy that it was.

I guess that makes Metropolis...an island?

Does anyone know if this is a new version of Metropolis, or has this type of geography been established/shown in other Superman versions?

I think it's a peninsula; it’s surrounded by water, but not completely like an island.

I think it's a new version of Metropolis when it comes to the movies and probably T.V. as well; Smallville's Metropolis is described as only a few hours away from Smallville, in the smack middle of Kansas. I think that SR's Metropolis resembles S:TAS a lot, especially considering the huge water mass that surrounds the city and the sheer scope of the city as well. I also think that they took a lot of elements from the comics.

[Mentok]

San Andreas was a mostly open ground. Metropolis is on many levels, very tall and with fully destructable buildings.

[Spider-jedi]

all the pics we see of this game are for the 360 version. we also need to see current gen pics too

[Mentok]

The pics are made using data from the x360 version. We still have no actual game shots.

[Spider-jedi]

if does aren;t actual game shots why do we see life bars

[Mentok]

They put them in to gave you an idea of what they will be using in the finished game.

[Spider-jedi]

what makes you so sure of that?

[Mentok]

Because thats what they said.

[BrollySupersj]

Some times I think Metropolis, is just WAY TOO BIG, but at some times....I can't help but love the way it looks....

[Super Kal]

the bigger, the better...

[BrollySupersj]

the bigger, the better...

But the way it looks, takes the real feel to it, Just the way it's built is almost impossible AND have your heard on how many buidling Metropolis is is said to have??? Almost 90,000:eek:

[Superman4ever]

the bigger, the better...

Here here! :up:

[Showtime]

This game is going to be immense....why are we complaining about the size of Metropolis!

[SolidSnakeMGS]

I think you're decimal point is a little too far over, bud :) I believe it's 9000.

And I hope we can recreate the scene from the last part of the teaser (even better if there are night-day changes, which I doubt).

[Showtime]

http://www.supermanhomepage.com/images/games/sr-visual-target7.jpg

Here is another target render from EA’s Superman Returns: the videogame development team. For those not familiar with the term, this image was created models used in the game. The developers place those models into a 3D program, add lighting and shadows, then render out an image to use as a goal. The game's programmers use this goal image as a visual reference to build towards as they game progresses - basically, this is what they want the game to look like.

In this particular image, superman is fighting robots that are minions of Metallo's army.

[Mentok]

This game is way too 'cartoony' :(

Still, it looks slightly better with more action going on.

[Showtime]

The details are added yet. We'll see more detail on those cars, the buildings, and Superman no doubt. Not to much more, but more than what we are seeing.

[Mentok]

That new pic is the best so far.

[Showtime]

Everybody is worried way to much.

[Mentok]

I cant see why they went with this cartoony look... I am sure it could work well but I wanted a realistic world, not a mix up of Superman cartoon and Superman Returns.

[Spider-jedi]

most 360 games appear that way

[SANSHORYU]

With 3 months left until launch, and them still doing "target renders" and having not yet released actual vids of gameplay, isn't it probable that this game (no matter how high my hopes are for it) will be buggy and just... NOT GOOD? There's play testing and bug squashing left to do, and with an ambitious game of this size, I just don't see the final product being very good. Anyone agree with me?

The target renders are not new, they are from last november. EA are still releasing them to us.

Like I have been saying all along, dont expect much from the game :p
