That's not what I meant I meant what we see on the box art, that bc is much more detailed than the one ingame, both on the poly count and textural details.

btw the mk1 is absolutely fabulous

If you were thinking straight, you should know by now that assets for things like poster, box art etc are usually of higher poly count and detail. Which of course, the game probably has no chance of rendering in real-time.

And I give me artists and modelers a specific polycount and texture budget which they cannot piss around with. In fact, the MK1 from BCM is 1058 polys and 584KB of texture memory. The MK1 from BCG is only 1350 polys and 2336KB of texture memory (main, specular, glow texture types). But BCG which has higher system requirements is more likely to not choke in a massive battle with these types, than BCM.

EDIT: All the shots are now up at Gamescreenshots
