    That whole gen was really egregious with bullshots

      I still found KZ2 to be one of the better looking games during early-mid PS3 era, it was so fricking atmospheric too.

        This, however, the trailer is one of the worst examples of a "bullshot" of all time. The game is good. The marketing and practices are actual poison.

        DS2 being a bad game aside (FRICK ADP) I still consider this to be straight up false advertising. They literally took out the lighting they advertised as one of the main selling points of the game. That and I was in the Closed network beta that ran from like 2-5am my time and the graphics in THAT were even better than they were in the final release. It's crazy that I even bought another FromSoft game after that in all honesty.

      I was 11 or something when I saw this. I remember thinking "Wow we are really in the future now, all my hopes and dreams are coming true" and then was so dissapointed that I ended up hating Killzone forever.
      But it wasn't all bad, it taught me a lesson that I will never forget, cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from YHWH he is like a shrub in the desert and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited saltland

      Not really because not only was it unfathomable to misrepresent the graphics, they didn't have the resources to do it. The hardware people had at home especially for consoles was pretty much the hardware that the developers were working with.

            They honestly couldn't figure out what was going on as to why it wouldn't work on the 64, but with the pack it was 100% fine. They had no choice but to package it with the game.

              The game still took advantage of the extra power, but yes it needed to be packed with the game in order to work.

      I remember how mgs 3 and gta San Andreas would have all these features that were either cut or never going to be in the game at all and were pure fantasy. When the mgs 3 demo finally came out in magazines I remember spending like 2 hours trying to figure out how to use the enemy radio to call off alerts and never figuring out how until I realized it was bs.

      people still play and defend cyber punk and that other game, I can't remmeber the name of it but it was about flying to different planets or something. But these companies actively lied and charged the foolish consumer full price for unfinished slop. And they bought it and complained, but they still bought it. This is why video games are bad, because the consumers are seriously idiots. I'm not even trying to be mean, but you can just about sell them anything and they will buy it. Things are starting to change a little bit but the fact that people even gave Cyberpunk enough of a chance for the devs to update it enough to be playable means that gamers are less like consumers and more like addicts. When you sell a junkie a sack that is 1/5 drugs, they will still come and buy from you when there is nowhere else to get it from. Not to mention GTA and Skyrim selling the same game for ten years

        cyberpunk is an odd one, originally thought it was disgusting soulless shit, the type of aaa dreck you see western studios shit out, disgusting nonsense like far cry or assassin's creed
        started 2077 two days ago and it does have some strong artistic merits, alongside a lot of the jank and hacky shit like gutter rap music and hamfisted symbolism
        but i would not say this game was a total failure or a disgrace

    talking about bullshots. I remember reading on old mags (and probably online too) in the mid 2000's that screenshots were ever a bit better when released by devs because they worked on pc and devkits are slighty more powerful compared to the user counterpart (xbox is an example) and that was acknowledged by the journalists themselves in previews and news. obvslly it was marketing too
