Teamxbox (http://www.teamxbox.com/) has posted new screenshots (http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/8606/DogTag-Screenshots/) of the Xbox 360 title, DogTag.

Here's the gist of the game...

DogTag is a squad based military game, where a marine battalion has been sent in to replace a retreating rebel faction. A few weeks later, intelligence confirms that the colonel leading the battalion had engaged in a mutiny against central command with the support of (some or all of) the troops under his command. His reasons, at this stage, are unknown.

Players will control an elite Special Ops Squad whose mission is to arrest and retrieve the command structure behind the rebellion. If retrieval is not possible, players need to neutralize the battalion command. How will the player decide to pull the trigger when the enemy is a friend?

Looks pretty damn sweet!

Haven't heard much on this one. Looks pretty good but I'll wait to pass some more judgement after I see it in action.

The jaggies in the 360 screens to date are due to the fact that the GPU in the dev kit does not have the 10megs of eDRAM. The newer kits, which are still in the process of being distributed, will include that memory and thus should have 4x AA enabled. [And yes, that applies to these screens, as many sites have had them posted since E3.]

However, I realize this factual information probably does not matter to you, as you are quite obviously not a fan of the XBOX and 360, and have posted the same thing in many 360 threads.

Hehe, at first I thought (based on the title) this game was suppose to be a Nintendogz killer. That would be kinda cool.

Only interesting screenshot there is the chopper one, that one is pretty nice. I guess it looks much better in motion, but so far this doesn't seem like a far leap from games like Riddick in terms of graphical quality. Nice textures, still limited models.

those screens are old, they were released over a month ago..

There have actually been a few new one's since, http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=25676

And actually tomorrow, I'm getting to see the PC version in action, so stay tuned :)

Well, some of us are real suckers for military games like this, and we await your impressions of the game :D

What in the name of all things brown are you on about? I'm a Microsoft fan and I've already pre-paid my Xbox 360. Your accusation is therefore incorrect. And I can't recall mentioning jaggies, or anything else derogatory about the Xbox 360 for that matter, "in many 360 threads". Please sort out fact from fiction before you begin throwing wild accusations at people.

I think I will go invest in some Tarn-X or Shineola...cuz' this game is going to need a whole hell of a lot of polish. The character models are fugly and they look very washed out color-wise. I hope this game is much better looking by the time it gets to 360, or else it will go the way of Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon and become an expensive coaster. No, literally, I use Bruce Lee: Quest of the Dragon as a coaster...and just being on the disc makes my soda taste blander....

The art style doesn't seem to be for me, though I am interested in where they're going to go with the story. The idea of mutiny under mysterious circumstances can be a great plot device if done well.

This attempt at plot seems to be rather thin. I'm also not going to hold much hope for those graphics.

We'll see.

Is that guy on the left supposed to be human? It looks like his skin is made of granite.
