looks n64-ish

impressive

Nah, it looks more like late first/ early second generation PS1.

The other screens of the character close up look better, but this doesn't look that great. The moon and many other objects in the background look flat, which takes away from the sense of depth the rest of the graphical design tries to impart.

For an handheld game, it looks pretty damn good. Thanks for the images!

It's still rather early to be that harsh, but would you spend 3-4 hundred dollars to play that game?

You can see the video on GameSpot. Looks impressive for a portable device I suppose, the video is so grainy and skewed its hard to tell. From what I could see, it looks better than "N64-ish".

PSP will run the havock physics engine!

Of course, it's not being suggested that you should in any way expect Half-Life 2 on PSP but the very fact that such a powerful physics engine is being adapted to run on a handheld suggests that PSP is indeed a potent beast.

I wonder how long it will be until people start making ridiculous comments now that that information has made it out?

It looks like the very first PS2 games. Which I always thought just looked slightly better than the last games that came out for the PS1.

The PSP will have Toy-Story graphics! Go Sony!

I want a PSP, just as long as it's not as crappy as that shitty ass NGAGE

These shots look about as good as I thought the PSP would look, but Im not yet won over by this handheld.

looking at the coloring of the pictures, id say the games would look much clearer on the actual system and not a screen cap.

On a side note, this really makes me wonder what nintendo has up thier sleeves..

Keep in mind that these are pics of a big screen displaying the game NOT captures.

Um...

The game takes the form of your average 3D platform adventure, with players taking control of a little grim reaper as he fulfils his usual quota of exploration and combat-based objectives. Speaking of the machine's power, Charla addressed, "Polygon for polygon, PSP has more power than PS2." This is clearly evident from the footage, which appeared comfortably on a par with the latter machine's first-generation offerings. Visual effects were in abundance, with dancing flame effects showering the screen, tracers accentuating the hero's weapon motion, and some impressive lighting further enhancing the game's eerie mood.

The PSP is more powerful than the PS2? Or is that just a typo?

I think you can considered the PSP as PS2.5 in terms of power. I was also surprised when they announced this about a month or so ago.

Why is that so unbelievable?

The PS2 is pretty old already.

Well, a hand held console is more powerful than the original console.
Is like saying the GBA is more powerful than the gamecube. I don't have a good analogy.

That is a typo. She meant to say, "Polygon for polygon, PSP will consume more power than PS2."

Time to start stocking up on rechargable batteries.
