It isn't every day that a mainstream publication comes out and declares some screenshots to be from the next generation of consoles. Sure, you have some hints in Gamespot about Elder Scrolls IV and The Godfather, but there's always this sense that the images could be from the PC version too. Well, not this time. Game Informer is coming right out and saying it.

These are next gen console shots.

The game is called Condemned, by Sega, and it looks pretty freaky. But a little "current-gen" PC, to be honest.

So here they are. What do you think? We may need to see the magazine up close to make the call.

[Thanks Josh!]

Gamers beware!
Before choosing a next gen. console read these fact about sony making fool out of you.
-Sony have said that cell is 10 times more powerful than any current PC processor.it will generate 256 gigaflops of processing power.actuually ATI's X850 XT Platinum edition generates 207 gigaflops of processing power,that is definitly not 10 times less than that of cell.The reason Sony have not considered GPUs is that GPU is not a general purpose processor(for graphics only).Nowadays PC games totally rely on GPU power.By the end of this year ATI are releasing R520 which will be able to generate more than 400 gigaflops of power.The most processing is required only by the graphics.Cell might look fancy now but compare it with the GPUs of the time when PlayStation 3 will release.With a single cell and Nvidia GPU(custom) ,based on this and the next generation technology,PS3 wont be able to beat xbox360(with next gen ATI card and total 1 teraflop)and up coming PCs .By the time of release,PS3 wont be any different from what PS2 was at its time of release.Sony have been calling cell "supercomputer on a chip when its not even close to the supercomputers of nowadays.

IMPORTANT:If yo have heard that PS3 will contain 4 cell,this is totally wrong.What sony have told to BBC,CNET and CNN is that PS3's cell chip will be capable of 256 gigaflops and will run faster than 4GHz.The rumer of 4 Cells was spread by Nicholas Blachford,who has no relation with SONY,PLAYSTATION or CELL. Actually Sony are even having problems putting a single full Cell because the technology is new and they have to look for keeping the price down.

-"a chain is as strong as its weakest link"
PS3's weakest link is bluray.bluray is an unmature tech and is still under development.The data transfer rate of best bluray drives avaialable is 4 to 5 times less than that of best DVD drives.BLURAY is not nice for loadinng high detailed textures of nextgen games at 60 frames per second.This means by the time of fall 2007 developers of games of that time will have to cut detail to make the game run smooth and to decrease loading time.

the last xbox i pooped on and it broke. i hope this one can handle poop on it. i hope they come out with a maultiplayer adapter for my poop so my friends can have shit all over them too, just like my last xbox.

them graphics are disappointing, the resident evil series on my gamecube look alot better

Look for screenshots of "Gears of War," "2 Days to Vegas," and "Cromehounds." Those are the best looking XBox 360 Games...

The fastest pc's have 64 bit processors. The Xbox 360 has >3< 128 bit processors each running at 3.2GHz!! It has DDR3 RAM too. The next gen consoles are going to put the current top of the line pc's to shame...

ok people your jumping to the year 2120 a little to fast.first of all the xbox 360 and PS3 grpahics are as good as they well get.you can't make games that look this good on those sytems now look any better.and the Ps3 and x box 360 will be the same in grpahics,little diffeneces that you'll probably have a hard time noting......but both the same equality.so if you say the grpahics for the systems suck for this game,then get used to it,because that's as good as they'll get for mayny years.
