Too dark?

[Wolfie]

I just bought the game and it's way too dark even with the brightness max'd. Oh and anyone noticed choppy framerate when cgi cutscenes are played? Overall it looks really nice, i love the improved lighting and shadows

Wait did you just compared a game that was originally for Dreamcast with a PSP game? Logical, sir. Very logical.

I have.

I couldn't tell if it was a fault of the original title, or a problem with this port. Regardless, it didn't bother me too much

Game brightness looks fine on my screen (granted I have a user setting which has the gamma much higher than the default), only thing I've noticed is that some scenes, particularly ones with the emphasis on the enhanced lighting (such as OP's picture) looking like they had a soft-blur filter applied.

I'm pretty sure the slight lagging during the FMVs was not the case in the original version (or at least the PS2 version). Then again, FMVs never look very good after a HD conversion, but it's the first one where I've noticed lag as well.

Either way, the in-game graphics are quite different from before imo; they made everything darker and grittier, I assume to try and make it look more realistic. It took a while before I got used to it, but I think it works quite well. The only thing that really looks weird are less detailed parts of the character models; look at their ears. It makes me smile everytime a cutscene zooms in on a character's face.

Played the RE4 re-release in the middle of the day and could see fine on default TV settings. Had to turn off Code Veronica after 5 minutes because I couldn't see shit! Will leave it as a night time game.

Maybe that's just the point of the dev's

Way too fucking dark. The original PS2 version actually looked better than this in every way. What were they thinking with this shit?

I had the same problem during the day on the PS2 version. I'd find herbs I wouldn't see during the day on my night time plays.
