Which is the point of this thread? I feel that there is something more to that pic but I seem to fail understand it.
I guess brad was just playing with a wireframe mode and thought he'd post a screenshot because its farily interesting to see. You get to see how detailed thier meshes are, how the world is built - how terrain features work things like that. At the same time Gamespot can't use it to show off the "tight" or "dated" or "mixed bag" graphics that press types describe all aspects of a game as.
Descriptions:
Tight
Dated
Mixed Bag
Effectors:
Compelling
Visceral
So i would say the screenshot he posted was a compelling mixed bag personally.
