There is more to graphics than meets the eye |
Ó
Analyst Rhian Hibner was on gaming news the other day and he brings with him some unfriendly comments for the upcoming PSP title Family Guy and the rest of the industry. We are not quite familiar with this guy Hibner but fortunately, stalwarts of the industry are just around the corner and are ready to defend the kingdom.Accordingly, Hibner had seen the PSP title and thought it was poorly produced. He then made some rants and uttered baseless and hasty generalizations. NCSoft former employee Brian Plauche couldn't agree less with Hibner as he wrote: "To use one game to make blanket comments regarding the industry displays ignorance regarding modern games. I can say with confidence that he is completely out of touch with the industry."
Plauche then reiterated that graphics is not just as simple as 1-2-3. It is actually composed of entwined features such as dynamic lighting, world size, sound, musical score, story line, artificial intelligence, environment interaction and physics. Plauche even went further by saying: "Physics and interaction with artificial environments are such important developments that soon players will have to add a physics card to their computers just to ensure the game can be played properly."
In the end, the former NCSoft employee couldn't help but praise the Splinter Cell franchise and Halo on X360 and upcoming MMO Tabula Rasa. The X360 titles according to him have penetrated unprecedented levels and are only possible with the hardware in next-generation consoles. Lastly, Tabula Rasa was given the thumbs up for revolutionizing MMORPG titles by skipping grinding and just enjoy game play.
