Call of Duty 3 shots spring to attention by Chris Leigh

PALGN News: First screens for all three next-gen machines. Plus: first videos inside.

Well that's interesting isn't it. The CoD 3 E3 trailer looks significantly better than these 3 videos, and to be honest the screenshots don't do much justice at all. It's still pretty nice looking though, especially with the 2nd vid, although 3rd vid is full of little glitches that I'd assume they'd pan out in the final version. It looks okay I guess, not really excited about it though, never have been with CoD games.

I thought the CoD E3 trailer was prerendered garbage.

Edit: Just had a good look at the vids. Looks fantastic, especially the CQC in video 2. Even better is that they've promised it's the same game across all three platforms, minus graphical differences.

Why do Wii games look worse than Gamecube games?

Must be an 'Activision' thing.

Not wishing to stir here, but the graphical difference between Wii and the 360/PS3, at least in this game, is, well...huge.

I couldnt care less what the graphics are like as long as it plays well.
eg COD:UO is a better game than COD2.

I also favour strong gameplay, but I do appreciate a visually attractive game also, and the graphics are an issue for many people, hence me raising the point.

^ Exactly, graphics aren't everything, but to say they're nothing is wrong. Minor differences like there are between the 360 and PS3 versions are nothing, but when the differences are as huge as they are to the Wii version, that does take away a lot of the immersion.

^especially when most games are using HDR lighting, bumpmapping, etc as a standard now. You get used to it, and when you don't see it happening in a game, it doesn't look or feel right.

Yep, then it feels fake.

I'm looking forward to COD3. When is it being released?

COD2 was a great game on 360, and I hope COD3 can make even more improvements than announced.

If anyone here was thinking cod on a wii could go toe-to-toe with a 360 or ps3 visuals wise you need a reality check :/

I'd be more into cod games if only there wasn't ths REALLY BAD bug on the pc version of the first game, which looked up all computers running ati cards on the second level.Stupid crap.

I'm sure it was level 2, there was a machine gun nest 1/3rd through the stage where it would start firing on you and your squad, and at that very point, crasheroo.
