They weren't leaked! They were in some magazine and on Yahoo! How can Yahoo put up illegal stuff eh? And that PC gamer shows jack s**t tbh. It's like 1 tiny little screenshot the size of my thumb.


PC Gamer had a 10 page preview with about 10-12 shots.

The Yahoo shots are fine, as they're from the PCG material. The post I was referring to posted renders of characters and such leaked out by an unscrupulous thieving artist some time ago. [addsig]

OOOoooooh those ones from ages ago eh? I still have them on my PC, nice work but I know they are only artistic renders, no game in this day and age could cope with models that are 4 million polys lol! As for PCG I can't remember seeing a big thing about it, maybe it was only in the US one or something. [addsig]

Yeah, US PG Gamer had the big article. PC Zone had one too, but it sucked ass and they made the screens look terrible - cropping parts out and putting them at full page resolution, stretching stuff, etc. etc. Ugh.

The renders were from the high-poly source models. It's not just an artistic render, that's where the normal maps come from. You don't see the however many hundred thousand or million polys in-game, but you see almost every one in the lighting detail on the character. The Unreal Engine 3 tech page has a great example of this with higher poly detail and texture resolution (but then, having min-spec of a gf6800 or so will let you do that ). [addsig]

ACK! AS/TwoKnives, your post was fine! Those are legitimately released! I was referring to a post deleted just before mine!

Sorry for the confusion. [addsig]
