Hey...dont underestimate Xbox360...Xbox360 can deliver same level of detail as ps3..does...but this game is ps3 exclusive...so..not this game may be PGR5..or future products...

ok everybody like it .. wht is that u find missing to become a real life photograpghy ????

for me ..

the cars look like a toy car.. not a true real lifecar..
lighting can still be detailed.. or if detailed can make this real life like..

wht do u think>??

Mar 8, 2008 at 2:58 PM
^ yea.compare 1st and 2nd pic-the shadows in 2nd pic and car detail are not that good.needs a lil more lightning + some shadow work and of course AA adjustments if the game is running with AA.then u can call it a complete reality :)

Screenies look great but i am not convinced that they're taken in-game . Sony has always had this history of overstating the quality(and performance) of it's products .

Also , if you look in the second pic , the wheels aren't spinning and the camera angle just isn't anything near a real screenshot . I'd go with pics from a more reliable source like Gamespot or IGN .

I still am not convinced and until a reliable site such as Gamespot or IGN reviews the game(which is yet to release in the US) and provides actual in-game screenshots i'm not buying it .

Similarly when the PS2 was launched there was the great hype that it was a supercomputer in a console and Sony even sold a Linux kit for the PS2 . We all now know how many people run Linux on their PS2 or do scientific calculations on it !

Please , and i wouldn't buy a game just for the Graphics coz in the end gameplay and how much content(and the quality) a game packages matters .

Just look at the mess Need For Street: Pro Street is ! Superb graphics but game play so shallow you just wanna turn it off .

As mentioned earlier in this thread...DIE XBOX 360 DIE!! :D

PS3 is waaaay ahead of its time...no one has been able to take full use of its horsepower yet. Xbox 360 is already reaching its limits...

Haha...what with the demise of HD - DVD recently...things are looking good for Sony! :D

@Zeeshan: YOur screenshots are inferior to the PS3 ones. Also, the last clear shot is of an in-game cutscene or trailer, not of actual gameplay. Sorry mate, PS3 still pwns Xbox! :D

GT5 will most probably support that "PSP as side view mirror" (like F1 2007).

Xbox360: Choose your next Games carefully, PS3. They may be your worst games in graphics.
PS3: [to himself: thinking] "Graphics and Sound"?
[PS3 unsheathes and points his sword at the Messenger's throat]
Xbox360: Madman! You're a madman!
PS3: Graphics and Sound? You'll find plenty of both in me.
Xbox360: No man, Wii or Gamecube, no man has greater graphics than me!
PS3: You are made by microsoft.
Xbox360: This is blasphemy! This is madness!
PS3: Madness...?
THIS...IS...SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

i don't wanna get into a fight here, but it's proven and tested that the xbox 360 has a far superior graphics card than the ps3. Xenon is powerful than RSX. Graphics comparison in Gamespot has proven that and even CNET has ruled in favour of the 360. Yeah, I am a 360 owner and a proud one at that. Halo 3, Gears of War, Mass Effect, BioShock and the upcoming Gears of War 2, beats the hell out of PS3 library. MGS 4 and GT5 is not enough! :)

Here is a quote:

Graphics: The XBOX 360 is a clear winner. The GPU is more powerful. It has more powerful fillrate, and far more pixel and vertex processing horsepower. Part of the reason is their choice of memory, and architecture of pixel and vertex procesing. I can’t get into details but the same vertex shader will run much slower on the PS3 than the XBOX 360. The 360 also has a clever new way rendering high definition anti aliased back buffers. To accomplish the same effect on PS3 is prohibitively expensive. For this reason I think many games will have no choice but to run in non-HD resolutions on the PS3 version, use a lower quality anti aliasing technique, or do back buffer upscaling. The end result in all cases is going to be noticeably worse image quality.

how many times does one has to tell that Sony hasnt given the developers the right tools (as they're still devolipng) to unleash the full potential of of PS3.

are you xbox boys offended by the GT5's gfx.? :?

then why say xbox has BIG game lib.:|, its a fact that everyone knows, so stop talking about it already.

anyways at the end of the day, PC PWNS the consoles:p

Guys, isnot PS3 a 6 core cell proc???
We already have 8 core procs and the GFX card with the multi GPU support already used by people, technically, the PC beats the PS3. If the games use them properly, shouldnt the visuals be better than PS3?

Developers are having hard time to figure out what to remove in order to fit in a BR Disk..

Mind blowing. Simply mind blowing. Only a XBOX 360 owner/fanboy can find faults with it. :D

GT series have been known to sport some of the best graphics ever seen on any platform. I have the GT4 for my PS2 and you wouldn't believe the graphics it produces. Its just seems impossible that the PS2 is capable of such graphics. It just makes me curse other game developers as why they couldn't make full use of the PS2 hardware the way SCEA does. The older GT4 has several times better graphics than the newer NFS Carbon and Pro Street.

Also , the other images given on IGN are Renderings and promotional images .

The in-game ones are those that have been captured while playing a game . Which the images in the first post do not meet .

These images were taken from IGN too

Gran Turismo 5 prologue is essentially what will be offered in the full version of Gran Turismo 5 .

GT5 prologue features less tracks(only 6) and is meant to be played as a demo .

Also as GT5 isn't officially released yet we cannot have actual in-game screenshots of it . The only real in-game screenshots available are those of GT5 Prologue .

And yeah sony is asking $40 from PS3 owners for a glorified demo .

actuaally the ingame shots wht u posted were also good.. .. only thing is the second one was under the shadow.. and first one seems to due to fast motion... but thew cars look superb.. and we also dont know wthether they were bneen played ona full HD lcd screen... if they would have played ona anormal tv.. the clarity may be low .. or say a leass Hd lcd... notthe full HD supported one..
