Tecmo's fighting game showcases with these fifty images, very beautiful as usual. Nevertheless, I expect Team Ninja to fix that lack of real shadows (not even talking about self-shadowing).
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Days ago)

Hopefully you'll have videos of it soon. The game looks a lot better in motion. The way the lighting warps around the character's clothing and skin is awesome.
I'd really like blur in fights aswell, I think it looks great. Of course I don't really enjoy playing DOA, but here's horray for it looking sweet. :)
One of the top 3 worst-looking X360 games.
On the one hand it tries to put amazing detail into the backgrounds making them look as realistic as possible, but without any texture (not textures, mind) on the bodies of the fighters, they can't really keep up with that. What happens is that they have this technically awesome game that barely looks half as awesome as.. it REALLY does, if that makes sense.
I really get the dilemma though, by giving the characters more facial features and texture they won't look as decidedly anime-y, probably losing a lot of their appeal to many people. At the same time, if they don't, this game series will never look any different. Quite frankly it basically reached its peak already with DOA2.
I think the graphics are excellent, but I guess people would rather have all thier games look alike. Personally I'm afraid we may lose some nice artistic styles next gen becuase everyone thinks the games should be as realistic as possible with heavy use of normal maps, which is just gonna make everything look the same and boring.
The topic of artistic expression I'd really like to take somewhere else. The forum maybe?
Sure, it's never been cartoony, but the designs are way different anyway. I for one like the look of Tekken 4 best, with its soft models and.. I dunno.. "warmer" lighting. Tekken 5 went back very much to Tekken 1 in terms of design, and some kind of quasi-Tekken 3 look for the atmospheric effects.
