I played the PS4 demo (which only has Cirqus Voltaire) at Fry's Electronics, and I noticed right away that the on-table DMD looks pretty bad. The overlay DMD (in the corner [optional]) looks normal, but the on-table one doesn't have... well... it doesn't have the DOTS!... the individual pixels... and so the graphics are kind of, I don't know how to describe it, meshed low-res, ugly?
It looks as if the on-table DMD has an image scaling filter applied to it, resulting in a look akin to the middle or right ones of these graphics. I hope it doesn't look that way in the final version. I can only compare it to Xbox 360 and PC, which don't have this problem. Also looking up PS3 Voltaire on YouTube, that one doesn't appear to have the problem either. Anybody else that played it on PS4 notice this?
I don't know if it's an effect of the lighting somehow not being calibrated, because the bottom bumpers also were frequently very washed out (overlit) to where you couldn't see the art on them, so I thought it was maybe the TV, but they also had Knack to play on there and the lighting in that didn't look odd at all. This demo was at Fry's in Woodland Hills, CA, though I don't think the DMD issue has anything to do with lighting, but rather an image scaling filter being applied
