If GeForces are so good...

BaD_BURN · July 12th, 2002

Just wondering: every GeForce has a set of demos to show off their supposed 'power' or something like it, right? How long do you think we have to wait til we see games as good as the Creature demo for the GF2s or the Wolfman demo for the GF4s?

3-5 years beofre we see actual games that have those type of graphics. Doom 3 won't have high poly counts so it doesn't count

Asz · July 12th, 2002

Wadda' ya mean it won't have high polygon counts? What is everything made of???????

**Kane** · July 12th, 2002

Bump mapping Vertex-shading tricks, but there will be a relatively high poly count in comparison to previos FPS engines.

The ears look more square (on fat zombies) than in SOF 2 and a lot of other games.

3-5 years is to long! Nah! I think it'll be 2 years MAX! I mean... video games are getting better really fast!

Look at the games we had 5 years ago :P

1997?
We had 3D games, just like we have now, only nowadays they look better and play worse?

Metalmurphy · July 12th, 2002

Lol... yeah they look a lot better! And true most of them play worse :P

Metalmurphy · July 12th, 2002

I still remember when the used the mouse for the first time in FPS!... I just can remember if it was Delta Force or RainbowSix! Every one started complaining but now everyone does it :P

July 12th, 2002

I had to get accustomed to it as well...In duke 3d I used only the keyboard

..and never used to play much fps games until Shogo. I really liked that one a lot. It was also my introduction to online gaming.

Metalmurphy · July 12th, 2002

Online gaming... I think my first online game was No One Lives Forever! Kept playing it till 4 am :P

July 12th, 2002

not so different from me then....and both games used the same engine

Metalmurphy · July 12th, 2002

That i didn't know... getting a litle off topic this. maybe we should get in again. Let's see what are the major title in 1997? can't remember well what games were relesed then...

**Kane** · July 12th, 2002

Half-Life maybe?

Metalmurphy · July 12th, 2002

nop... that one was 1999 i think! It had the best motor engine when it was released! A well modified Quake engine!

July 12th, 2002

1997...
uhm.
lot's of sega PC stuff (saturn ports) for instance....

**Kane** · July 12th, 2002

Are you sure? I think it was 97/98.

July 12th, 2002

98 also...
maybe even 1996.

**Kane** · July 12th, 2002

It's been out a good long time, anyways, yet people still play it. that is the definition of a good game.... or a well marketed game

K.I.L.E.R · July 12th, 2002

Actually not much has changed in terms of 3d games other than more poly's. Not many games use Bump mapping.
