How would you like to sh*t yourself?

You and me both https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif I don't remember the last time a CPU could jump 100MHz "just like that". It seemed to have plenty of headroom left in it. And the way it's designed it's supposed to be frequency friendly.

Glad to be back. Yep, that's me alright. It was a Halloween thing but it's over now. There are other pictures lurking around on the site or in the about us section.

Nice to see you back, too.

By the way, are you that pink haired fellow in the pictures in the Pentium 4 review? It would be nice to associate a face with a name.

After you mentioned an "About Us" section, I was sort of curious, so I tried to find it. It seems to be hiding, though. Is it on your front page?

This is awesome... what made them think it could be done?

Before you bash in the door... check to see if it's unlocked already

your right, i did almost sh*t myself. That was amazing!

as for when it will be possible on a desktop game the problem will stem from content design not from hardware ability https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

as it is were jumping 1000 times in power and memory every 15 years (remember the commodore 64?) the problem will be making the characters not rendering them once made

just my 13.2 billion

Um dude is it SUPPOSED to shoot flame like that?

just re-watched the trailer... its that good.
when i was looking through in frame mode to try and figure out what they used to render the sucker i noticed the date

december 13th 2065.

Not in the slightest. I was looking through the still frames myself, and it is interesting the effects they use, like motion blur and solarize. Also, the closeup of the guy at the end is amazing how real it looks. Also, if you look at still frames near the end of the trailer, you can see a lot of hidden frames that you don't notice when it is running. Just about everything is cool in that trailer.

BTW, if you happen to notice "ERAU QSSI DLRO WEHT" anywhere in the trailer, that would have significance to a true Final Fantasy fan. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/6.gif

Thanks for the link Arcadian, that was unbelievable.

I played it three times in a row, each time a bit louder...then my wife started throwing things at me! https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

You're trying to tell me that those people are CGI? I got a hint that the body might be CGI, but the face looks quite real. Please tell me to my face that those people were CGI so I can get out of denial.
I didn't look aroung the site at all except for the trailer; where does it say that its all CGI?

Here is a quote from scifi.ign.com
"This is an interesting time for makers of computer-generated movies. Disney has pretty much established that feature-length computer-animated movies can work, (think Toy Story, Toy Story 2, A Bug's Life, and most recently, Dinosaur), but to date, no one has managed to tell a story with human characters entirely in CG. At least not on the big screen."
( http://scifi.ign.com/movies/3957.html )

Here is a quote from www.rpgamer.com
"The Final Fantasy Movie is currently being produced at Square Honolulu. It will be completely computer generated and is due for release in 2001."

Here is a quote from www.thegia.com
"Cameras designed to capture human motion and translate the data into computer-based movements, Silicon Graphics Octane workstations, and more specialized equipment are all being used to deliver a movie with "photo-realistic" computer generated characters."

A quote from here: http://www.animationartist.com/upcom...y/fantasy.html
"All the stops are being pulled out for Final Fantasy: The Movie, which will be 100% 3D computer animation."

Hope this convinces you. If you use a search engine to look for "Final fantasy movie 100% CG", you will see much more evidence as well. This looks very exciting. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Ming Na
Alec Baldwin
Donald Sutherland
Ving Rhames
James Woods
Steve Buscemi
Peri Gilpin

Also, on a side note, when is ff9 slated for release on PC?

------------------
Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose.

I agree with some people about it not being of a final fantasy plot. Looks like they stapled the name to a NICE computer effects movie so us ff freaks would flock. Sure, final fantasies have been space/future oriented but not like this. I doubt that this movie will have one sword/blade in it. Not to say that this movie wouldn't kick, but i dun think that it'd be final fantasy'ie. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif coming from loyal ff fool.

I couldn't find it in the trailer... I was just saying that it might have been cool, since this is a phrase any true pre-Playstation Final Fantasy fan would recognise. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

I think as an Easter Egg, it would have been cool to include it in a frame somewhere. But who says they didn't in the actual film https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/6.gif.

its nothing too surprising in japanese standards. But then, they're always ahead (and I mean AHEAD) of us westerners by a few years when it comes to graphics and technology. I'm very impressed though, see the hair on the girl? it moves with the wind with pure realism. Like every strand was programmed independantly.

anyway, is there a way of saving the file on my hdd? I wanna keep it for reference.

I provided a link in my first post to a downloadable version. You can save the one from www.thegia.com to your HDD.

Or, just go into your temporary internet files and copy and paste the file from there into another directory.
