Konami and Nintendo Screenshots

May 9, 2006 9:59 PM

Here's a selection of screenshots distributed at Konami's press conference today. Many of these titles were officially unveiled during the presentation.

- Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin (NDS)
- Elebits (Wii) (concept art)
- Hellboy (PS3, X360, also PSP)
- Lunar Knights (NDS)
- Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3)
- Metal Gear Solid Digital Graphic Novel (PSP)
- Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (PSP)
- Silent Hill Origins (PSP) (concept art)

Also, though Nintendo hardly even brought up GameCube at all during its press conference today, it did quietly announce three new first party games for the system via its press website. Here they are:

- Super Paper Mario, a Mario sidescroller with the graphical style of the Paper Mario games.
- Baten Kaitos: Origins, a prequel to the Monolith Soft RPG Baten Kaitos.
- DK Bongo Blast, an airborne racing title controlled with either the bongo controllers or a standard GameCube controllers.

Look at Ocelot's teeth for chrissakes!! Anyone that says 360 is gonna be able to produce same level graphics in the end is wrong.. MS made a mistake not making HD-DVD games, now Blu-Ray games will hold all these high-res textures and sounds. I'm sorry. In the long run, my PS3 will hold up longer, just like the PS1 and PS2 before it.

  Even Hideo Kojima?
  
  Cause a few months ago he said MGS4 would look nearly the same if it were on a 360...

  Uh, you do realize that even if that was in-engine, it most likely was not directly from a gameplay sequence, right? Dev's have been using higher poly/rez character models for in-game cutscenes for a while, even in previous iterations of MGS.

  gears of war and probably more importantly zbrush tell me differently.

  Those Hellboy shots are terrible if they're for 360/PS3.

  We really won't know for sure what these systems are capable of graphically until the end of this console generation, which is a good 5-7 years from now. You're jumping the gun a little bit on this one, sir.
