E3 2006 Best Graphics: Gods & Heroes, Perpetual Entertainment / SOE As a special treat, you can download an high-resolution version of their E3 trailer here (warning, large file!) The characters interact with each other and monsters in such a way that it makes you think the game is a cinematic, not an interactive MMORPG. In the video, two gladiators knock each other over, stomp on each other's chests and much more. It's downright amazing what these characters can do. Perpetual has animated it so that every creature in the game can have special moves down to them (based on size) and has special moves of their own. No more swing and blank stare, the characters truly look like they are fighting. Then you factor in the actual look and style of the title. For a mythological Roman game, they've captured it dead on. The characters look Roman and the look heroic. For a game called Gods & Heroes, what more can someone ask? The only downside is the user interface, which is extremely functional, but not quite as sleek as some others. Nonetheless, the overall quality of every other aspect of the game secured it the award in this most hotly contested category. Good work Perpetual on taking home Best Graphics. Now take a look at who else nearly grabbed the hardware.
