Microsoft sent us these nine images from the multiplayer mode of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter. Some of them might have been seen before, but it's the first time I see them in 720p.

Another example of even 720 images not doing the game justice :)
Agreed. But at least they're being honest at the same time... I've seen so many games that apply extra AA for screenshots to pretty them up, and then people are disappointed. e.g. "omg all those jaggies in PGR3!"
I believe the grain is a visual effect. It's way too obvious to be a mistake. :P
And oddly, there's AA in some shots (the 8th one for example) and in the third one, none at all.
They dont look like 720p to me they look crap=S the non 720p pictures looked good but damn this looks like low-quality man i mean just looks at the leaves!
blah blah blah blah if it's not the fps it's the AA. For all you whiners, just stick to PC gaming so you can apply your own resolution, fps, and AA. Looking good, I'm still wondering the reason to leave first person view to Xbox and PC version. It's suppose to be the 'most' flexible GR to date.
I'd be careful assuming the multiplayer has no aa i've seen some great videos that do look antialiased.
There are jaggies in pgr3???? I for one didn't notice any or maybe its because I'm not searching for any. Alot of 360 screens that have been released appear to not have antialiasing, but when the actual game is released the antialiasing is there I figure it'll be the same for the multiplayer. The multiplayer to my knowledge only lacks realtime softshadows like the single player game has among other downgrades, but AA isn't one of them.

...mp has only an upgraded version of the gr2 engine...
I'm sorry, maybe I'm the only one who hasn't seen any reports of the MP using an updated GR2 engine. From EVERYTHING I've read it's stated that while the SP and MP were developed by two separate teams, the game was built from the ground up. I did see a reference to them prototyping map design using the old GR2 engine, but beyond that I'm lost as to where people are reading this.
On a separate note, can we all stop being AA whores. When the first screens of FN3 were release there were a number of people saying that the boxers shoes had jaggies.....THIER SHOES! If it isn't clear to everyone by now, in this next-gereration screenshots are not going to do games justice. There are just too many other factors in play that can't be accurately represented by a still shot.... I'll let Frame City Killer be the exception to that. That ish looks entirely crap...visually
Hey blim or plumbdrum or someone, could you please let me know how I can contact you in regards to submitting some news? I have some very nice news you all may like and I'm not sure how to get it to you.
purbeast:
You can mail it to manager[at]xboxyde.com. I'll be up for another 20 minutes before going to bed.
If you want to send a short message, just send a PM here on Xboxyde.
*Edit*
And now I'm going to bed. Blimblim will be up early tomorrow, so please send a PM/mail to him, you can find his mail in his account info. He's up right now, but I think he's going to bed too.
What do you guys honestly think of the game now? From the moment we were shown a video footage of this game during the unveiling of xbox360..and now the final screenshots..
Still impressed and anxious? or is false hype/marketing to blame for misguiding us?
I'm still impressed and can't wait for the game..what do you guys think? same feeling as you had the first time you heard the mention of the game?
and this does look pretty crap. look at shot 3, far cry on the xbox looks better.
also, to the ppl moaning about ppl moaning. well, these are screenshots, showing the graphics, thats ALL we CAN comment on. And with mocrosoft promising 'lucid dream graphics' (ok noone should ahve beleived that) and 4xAA in evwery title (which clearly isnt the case) i think ppl have a right to moan when things look shite.

There are DEFINITLY jaggies in PGR3. PGR3 is a funny game--on one hand it's the best looking thing on the system (that I personally own atleast)--on the other, it's up there with RR6 in the jaggies/image quality department..but really, with all that detail there..it's nitpicking to complain about it.
Another strange thing about PGR3's image quality--it looks better on my parents 42" plasma than it does on my 24" LCD for some reason--but I can't say the same for any other game..everything else looks awsome on my monitor.
Still an awsome, awsome looking game, anyway you look at it..but it's got undeniable jaggies for sure.
I blame the games push for launch and yea..I wouldn't expect to see such a thing here..screenies look pretty nice imo.
SP has 4xAA and looks much better than MP too.
MP is just a big evolution of the GR2 engine, so it has not been converted to tile rendering and can't do AA in 720p.

Sounds so promising..the MP footage I've seen so far is beautiful as is, I love the animated trees :)

Game had me from hello. LOL. I was a bit turned off with the X05 demo. Anyway, the MP footages Ive seen looks to be very fun. I don't know how you guys could complain about it, I'd kill for 16 player co-op over Live.
