Is it PS2 footage or not

[aussie500]

Poll requested by Tombraiderx08

Some PS2 fans starving for a bit of PS2 footage have claimed 11 seconds from 1.33 to 1.44 of this footage is from the PS2 game. Some believe it to be the Wii version.

Watching it in high quality can help.

I gotta go out on a limb, I think it's PS2. (waits for poll)

Starving? Haha, gotta love that. :tmb:

[Dixie]

Undecided...

im a yesser :)

[Yuna´s Wish]

Thank you aussie, it does mean a lot to us, so I appreciate it :hug:



Points for people to consider:

-no blue Wii crosshair, as the ones in the IGN vids;
-icon appearing on the right of the screen -possible Square or Wii mote symbol-;
-no silly Wii puzzles at sight, but it might just be this particular area;
-Eidos hasn´t paid much attention to the PS2 players (maybe for now, maybe forever) :p

[Dingaling]

Well they showed one of the Wii puzzles right before the footage so I'd say Wii but there's no Wii 'guide' on the screen. Either way, the two versions will most likely look more or less the same as they've probably ported the PS2 version to the Wii and added 'waggle' effects.

[tranniversary119]

No it's not.

[Isaac]

I would say no, but the little square thing when reaching the last platform make me hesitate...

[Laras Lil Bro]

its quite obviously ps3 or 360 or even pc as its next gen graphics and the same as in all the other trailers

[trlestew]

that square looked like the wii so i chose that. and plus the main focus is PC x360 ps3 & wii the rest are just side platforms.

[_Lam]

For sure it's not next-gen. I think it's Wii so the PS2 version would be almost the same.

[X-Offender]

That little square in the end made me choose yes.

[KC Mraz]

The lack of the Wii "reticle" makes me think it is PS2, so I'd say yes

its quite obviously ps3 or 360 or even pc as its next gen graphics and the same as in all the other trailers

Look from 1:33 to 1:44, that's definitely the old-gen version (PS2/Wii)

[silver_wolf]

I think so, it looks better than the Wii footage.

[MattTR]

Nope, the square at the end is obviously a Wii button, the PS2 square would be a black circle with a pink square. It's definitely the Wii.

[Candee Sparks]

It can't be Wii!

Just look at the targeting and different arrows all over the place, that's not in the footage on the first page at all! It's gotta be PS2! I don't think you can turn those arrows off if I'm not mistaken.

Music is beautiful in the Wii gameplay video though, I haven't played the demo so I never heard it.

[Tombraiderx08]

square button http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2366/2082196265_56cfb155f9.jpg in which to grapple with, a purple-ish square shape, overtop a blackish gray shape http://i33.tinypic.com/4fuww1.jpg abscence of the targety thing http://i36.tinypic.com/242ecd5.jpg it has to be ps2!!!

I'm sure they turned the arrows off for the video, or it could be the new player tailoring.

The PS square looks like this:

[Tihocan9]

Definatly PS2 I think, it looks a lot better than what we have seen of the Wii version.

[Lenochka]

When I looked at the footage It looked like a square to me :)
I mean... the square button was the grapple in Legend and Anni so why wouldn't i be here? (sure we don't know for sure what the prompt was for... but when you think about it those usually only pop up when something you can grapple is ahead.)

[Candee Sparks]

I've been looking everywhere for footage of the Wii's grapple but I can't find anything. I stand by what I said, that's PS2. You can even tell by the graphics. Wii's graphics look pasty compared to PS2 who can have darker filters and smoother frame rate.

PS2 all the way.

[tombraiderxii]

it's wii footage. the B button at 1:44 gives it away

[Tombraiderx08]

it's wii footage. the B button at 1:44 gives it away its a SQUARE!

[Immortalis08]

No. The button prompt off to the side looked like the B trigger for the Wii. They had just been showing a Wii puzzle seconds before. I think Eidos would show more preference showcasing the current generation Wii, rather than the last generation PS2 since they seem to be emphasizing much more attention on that.

[Candee Sparks]

That's a square. Not a B.

[luis54321]

Looking closer I think it could be the B button

[Isaac]

http://i33.tinypic.com/4fuww1.jpg

That's a square. Not a B.

It's maybe a square, but it might also be a white blurry button with a black letter in it, giving the impression of a square.

[2kool4u]

I would say no, but the little square thing when reaching the last platform make me hesitate...

Exactly, it looks like a wii thing.

[aussie500]

Well it is nothing to do with the PS2, considering its been out for years you would think the fans would know what a button prompt in a PS2 game looks like. Its a black circle with a coloured shape, in this case supposedly a pink square. This looks nothing like a PS2 prompt, and we have seen similar things on the Wii games.

Footage was to show of the game, not show gameplay, cursers and things could have been removed like they usually do with video footage.

[Ward Dragon]

I think it's the Wii version since they showed a Wii puzzle right before it. The button prompt looks kind of like the B button to me but I can't quite tell.

Incidentally, did Eric say that the supernatural enemies are not based upon magic, they are just based upon the powers that the artifact has? o_O I'm being obnoxious but that jumped out at me :o

I think that's what it is.

[Ward Dragon]

I think that's what it is.

But aren't the artifacts magical? I mean, where do their powers come from? It's late and I'm tired, so maybe I'm missing something :o

[ColdCaseDetK]

It's not PS2. I mean, it starts off showing a Wii puzzle then right afterwards it shows the footage. So I doubt they would just put in 11 sec. of the PS2 version. I definently thins that it is the Wii version. But don't worry, I'm sure we'll get PS2 footage soon. And if not, it probably looks exactly the same as the Wii, if not a little better. ;)

[Shrantellatessa]

It's not PS2, coz of the weird icon that appears exactly @ 1:44 on the right of the screen. I know it's not a PS2 icon coz I'm a faithful PS2 player :)

[luis54321]

I'm sorry to disappoint but it is definitive it is the B button on the wiimote not the PS2 you can view this in HD at http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/action/tombraider8/video/6199886/tomb-raider-underworld-interview-2?hd=1

That settles it, then. It seems like we've seen screens or footage from every version except the PS2 version.

[Lara.Jolie7]

Isn't ps2

Don't look like any button

They can change a lot of things in the game

Change camera, hide heath bar etc, cuz they want to make it look good in video

That's why don't have the aim in the video

[Ward Dragon]

That's why don't have the aim in the video

At least with the Wii version of TRA, the Wiimote icon only showed while the Wiimote was pointed at the screen. The rest of the time there was a faint arrow at the edge of the screen showing where the Wiimote went off-screen (and therefore where it would appear when pointed back at the screen). I suppose that if Underworld makes better use of the Wiimote's senses then the arrow indicator would be unnecessary since the Wiimote should appear wherever it is pointed regardless of where it was last seen on the screen.

[Lara.Jolie7]

I dunno nothing about Wii
But they do a lot of stuff to make the screen looks clean
Is how they take they Ss etc...

Just saying :P

[KurtisLonely]

is the Wii, only the Wii had that kind of puzzle feature.

[-Roli-]

I think its Wii

[Candee Sparks]

Got my hopes up for nothing...:(

This isn't fair, showcase every other system even at the slightest but PS2 gets nothing? Can they possibly make me not want to even buy this game anymore?

[aussie500]

Well the PS2 version is fairly obviously not ready yet, and not being released this month, so why confuse players by showing media from it yet.

[top-toddy]

wii would make sense as thee was the moving hand (wii content)thing beofre

[Philio]

It's not PS2. :)

[touchthesky]

Wii, definately.

They show a Wii puzzle seconds before and her movement suggests that it's the Wii version.

[Cristina]

for i don´t think this is ps2 footage...:confused:

[Rivendell]

Nah, it's Wii - you can see the 'B' button prompt.

[*laralover*]

Its definatly Wii because of the B and also i think theres some sort of Wii puzzle to the right there i could be wrong though :p The graphics are looking really good for it :D

[da tomb raider!]

Considering they've released next to no media for the PS2 version of the game, I'm guessing it's Wii footage.

[Lara_Zoz2006]

I think its wii, im a ps3er and i feel sorry for thr ps2ers coz they got nothing yet at all

[john_york]

I'd say wii. The button prompt icon that appears at 1:44 doesn't look like any button on the PS2 controller - more like a wii-style button.

[Tombraiderx08]

well, it is wii then, I didnt see it clearly in the hq youtubed version but its a lot clearer in the real thing, :( ps2ers still have nothing! D:

[pTURKEYq]

[kamicasy^]

Wii version for sure :rolleyes:

[Isaac]

Still discussing about that when someone gave clearly a proof earlier that it was the WII version?

That's what I was thinking, lol.

There's no debate any more, it's 100% no arguments the Wii version being shown there. It has been proven beyond a shadow of doubt.

[Evan C.]

Wii version,I think.

[jaywalker]

*wonders if anyone noticed what i voted for* :)

[amiro1989]

*wonders if anyone noticed what i voted for* :)

So it's not.

[jaywalker]

So it's not.

Nah, its all Wii.. the prompt on screen is for Wii. PS2 prompts are obviously triangle, square, X etc

[Smegzilla]

Nah, its all Wii.. the prompt on screen is for Wii. PS2 prompts are obviously triangle, square, X etc

See? Now there's two posts fully proving it's Wii footage.

But I bet people will still come in with their speculation. :P

[Angelus]

Nah, its all Wii.. the prompt on screen is for Wii. PS2 prompts are obviously triangle, square, X etc

Will we ever see PS2 media before the game is released?

[noonbob]

that's next gen isn't it ???:confused:

[Tomb-Dude]

Will we ever see PS2 media before the game is released?

I'm hoping we will. Even though i'm not getting it i want to see how good it is going to look or i will wait for when sister gets it.

[igonge]

I think it's PS2 because the blue (is it blue?:confused:) thingy from the Wii version isn't flying all over the screen.:p

EDIT:
*wonders if anyone noticed what i voted for* :)

Awwwww :(

[Lara's home]

The swan dive is horrendous :O

[a_skyrunner]

NO. It's definitely Wii.

[Chocola teapot]

Jay just said it was wii. Its wii.

[-DaNnEe..]

It was Wii.

[larson n natla]

It starts with a wii puzzle so no :ton:

[ACSSNK]

Can't someone take some pictures of Underworld with min. requirements?
This looks like the PS2 version then I guess...
I would do it myelf, but well I can't :D

[Neteru]

It's already been clearly stated that the footage is from the Wii version. The poll is defunct, as is the thread.
