If that was true, u would be seeing games that look like killzone 2 and MGS4 on 360 by now… hells its been out longer than ps3, and ps3 has way better looking games… wanna explain? or just throw out fanboyish quotes again?

That's not a fanboy quote. It's straight up hardware facts.

The PS3 has multiple chips that can be dedicated to calculations for things like physics objects, but the video card cannot draw as much as it can calculate.

The 360 is reverse. It cannot calculate as much as the PS3 when it comes to physics and such, but has no issues drawing things on the screen.

This is why textures are usually sized down on the PS3 for multiplatform games.

Sony platforms have always had issues with textures.

The PS3 also uses some hybrid 720p rendering that fakes a 1080p image. It's weird. The 360 can't always do full 1080p either, so it creates two images and stitches them together, but it does include all the pixels that are in a 1080p image.

It's all strange video hardware limitations.

As far as MGS4 and Killzone 2 comparisons; those are first party games. Those will always look better than multiplatform games. Microsoft has their share of beautiful looking games too. It's at the point where regular people can't tell the difference, but developers can nitpick them all to death.

I can break down the smoke and mirrors of any game and show you all the short cuts they take to make them look so good.

This goes the same for the differences between the Gamecube and the PS2 at the time. Resident Evil 4 was on the gamecube and look great. Then it was ported to the PS2 and it was made worse in terms of graphics, but had more content. Then the Wii version came and had the best of both worlds plus some.

Not everything he said was a fanboy statement such as why the MGS4 is not on the 360, but saying “this game is more fun because it has six-axis” is a fanboy statement. Comparing the controller of a PS3 to an actual proton pack is a fanboy statement as any idiot can see they are nothing alike.

I mean, play a racing game of any type with any “controller” type with any system. Now drive a real car down a highway. You will quickly learn that they are nothing alike.

So comparing a pencil to a proton pack…stupid….purely stupid as a proton pack is fictional and doesn't really fire. You don't really know first hand how a proton pack fires.

I think even you skanker knows that there is a difference between style and graphics. Both are two separate things that can work with each other, but are not the same thing.

By far I am not saying the PS3 is a bad system, but it is not a “gift from god” as some like to think it is. I look more into the games which is why I never bought a PS3 because I saw no real interesting games for. Personal preference does not dictate the quality of a console. Plus I am having more fun with my PS2 at the moment then I do with the PS3.

As for the potential of each systems. I doubt they both have reached their limit in terms of what they can do. If I might bring up a past example compare Splinter Cell 1 to Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and you will see a very strong difference in everything. Both are on the xbox.

I am sorry kingpin for even starting this stupid fanboy war.

We can't predict which direction a topic will go.

Rebellion, even if you didn't intend it some of the comments you've made are “PS3 Fanboyish”. That remark about all developers who find the PS3 code difficult is unfair and a gross generalisation, and it's possible, if not probably if you gave a young boy a replica of the Proton Gun, he wouldn't know what to do with it.

Unlike the boy with the pencil.


And finally, I cannot see how a Playstation (nor any controller) controller could in anyway replicate the feel and motion of a Proton Gun, when you're holding a PS controller with your hands placed evenly apart, and the other is you holding a rifle with one hand in front of the other. I could go into ergonomics at length but it wouldn't be worth it.

And finally. If you feel the need to add another reply before another member has posted, please edit your existing post. I think there's one instance where you have three posts in a row.

Wii Controls + Microsoft Online Service + Playstation 3 hardware = win.

yup you've got the combo right. Now if they would only stop fighting and form like Voltron.
Our wallets would be F*cked

You fail to notice the fact that no DATE has been said.


Unlike what's on the other side of the link.


Please look next time.

Thanks

Wow a week before release too idk i think i might just wait.

Also its not a official date im saying that because he says “but I'd say this is the type of demo you'd like to release”
Take it with a grain of salt my friend It will be here earlier.

No exact date was given at this time, but I'd say this is the type of demo you'd like to release, oh I don't know, during E3 in early June? You know, when Microsoft does their whole “Bringing It Home” thing on Xbox LIVE? If not then, soon after, as June 8th is the 25th anniversary - to the day. What better way to celebrate than with a demo? We'll keep you posted.
