That's fine. They shouldn't have said they used the last gen at their maximum potential then.
Of course they will say that.
It doesn't mean we have to take their word for it, though.

Great, now we're going to make a big deal about the game not looking great on a years old console.
Like I'd play the game on my previous PC and whine about how I can't run it on ultra (or at all
)

Seriously though.
Complaining about a new game with new engine not playing/looking good on old consoles.

Hi. PS3 player here, on a six year old fat system with a digital version of the game, and I'll just say that the posted video matches my graphics pretty closely. I've got a little more lag on some texture loading, but not much worse than what I experienced in Mass Effect 3. Personally I think it looks just fine, save for maybe some of the facial hair, but then I've never been a big graphics person

OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT THING.And another thing I should have listed, facial hair looks god awful. Like, really awful. You think this is fine looking?-
OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT THING.
Graphical herpes.
I suppose it's a good thing I pre-ordered it for the PS4 then instead of the PS3. Granted I still have to work towards getting the system, but it'll be worth the wait.
But meh, different people are saying different things. It looks fine, it looks like ****, it looks like the **** that **** shits, etc.
Either way, doesn't affect me.
OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT THING.
Christ. I thought the facial hair was bad enough in its complete form (from what I've seen it.... didn't look all that great).
It takes some serious skill to grow a patchy-as-**** stache like that. That dude's going places.
PS3 is a last generation console.
I didn't expect the down port to have amazing graphics.
Is there a reduction in story content?
Are the environments smaller?
Is there a lot less to do?
Those are my concerns.
Graphics are fine in the images I've seen.
I don't ask for much. As long as I can tell my characters apart from one another, one piece of scenery from another and tell a dragon apart from a patch of grass.
What is my definition of bad graphics?
Have you seen any of the old Atari video games? Granted graphics weren't great back then (thanks to technical limitations), but that to me is what bad graphics look like.
I don't ask for much.
Neither did we. We just asked for the game's graphics to be up to the standard of last generation, what we got was a less than that. Well okay, maybe the game did meet last gen's graphical standard... of 2005.
OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT THING.
Seems like a problem with the semi-transparent hair textures.
Hey guys, really wanted to get this but now... its starting to feel like last gen was seriously lied to -___- its most likely a pointless question but...
Is the ps3 or 360 version better? (better as in more stable less glitches) any answers would be great and I think in a couple of days we should create a patch request post on here.

PS3 version is better. It has less graphical problems like ultra-shiny hair. That and you can't install it to your hard drive like a typical 360 game, you install 1 disk and then put another in and it needs to constantly read that off the disk and can't be installed. So your hard drive will have to work its ass off playing it. My 360 is a 2006 model and has never had a heat problem, and I attest that entirely to me never ever playing a game off the disk.
Damn.... thanks andy, im planning on holding off for now I REALLY hope they will patch it but conisdering it doesnt even have one last gen review it seems unlikely ![]()

Yeah I kind of agree with you. Kinda of stupid to be complaining about poor graphics on an older version of console... and then expect to have the same performance on a newer version of games.
That sounds kinda.....

you guys complaing about grapics on 8 year old console, bioware did the best they could done with giving you a game and you still complain, i wopuld be grateful for them even trying to bring it to the last gen consoles, but hey maybe you should move on to next gen of you choice since after this year you will have only 2 years left of life on the last gen
Nobody said they wanted the same performance of next gen consoles.
From the last generation of consoles ![]()
If its exspected to be a weak port then the price should reflect it then.... $60 for a "ohh well it should be rubbish beacuse its on older console" in that case charge $30 for it!

The level of ignorance spread throughout this thread is amusing. You people really expect a next generation engine to run on a 10 year old piece of hardware without severe compromises in quality? Be grateful they even gave you the opportunity to experience the game without having to buy a new console or spend even more money optimizing a pc.
No, I expect a game on a last-gen console to be to the same standard as other games on that same last-gen console. And no I won't be grateful, you act like they did it as a favor. No, they did it to hoodwink money out of people by making sure no one knew how crappy those versions were before they were out.

Exactly. If Bioware knew the last-gen versions were this much worse, why the f*ck am I having to pay full price for it?
