And this is surprising? LOL
Anytime a console drops it price sales surge.
At first I thought Patcher was stating this LOL

"I notice some are talking about sub-HD resolutions breaking a game. Personally, I think that's nonsense. While higher resolution certainly doesn't hurt, I'd much rather sacrifice resolution for more textures, better lighting, more particle effects, etc..etc."

You are correct.
Read DF article on Alan Wake.
It's a good read. One of the main reasons Alan Wake is Sub HD is its one of the few console titles out ...

Actually it does have real time Global Illumination.

"First up, lighting. One of the core enhancements that CryEngine 3 has over the older tech that powered the original Crysis titles is the implementation of real-time global illumination."

Most companies do this. Charge you a certain amount for repairs that are almost the same costs as buying a new system.
It's a way of getting those consumers to buy a new unit it seems.

AMD drivers for crossfire have improved greatly over the past year and especially for the 5970.
I got both of the for almost half the price when I got them.
I currently run every single game out now at above 1080p with 8xAA or better in Eyefinity.
I have no issues with them.

FPS debate...

You can run E.T The Video Game at 60 FPS. Does that make it a great game? Does that make it impressive?

The truth of the matter is MW3 uses an outdated graphics engine and uses no real time effects whatsoever and scripted destruction for set pieces.
If MW3 COULD NOT RUN AT 60FPS, I would honestly bitch slap Activison unti...

@xX_Altair_Xx

And yet, most PS3 owners on this site that bitch about "PC ELITISTS/GRAPHIC WHORES" ALWAYS, bring up graphics/power and how EXCLUSIVES on that platform look better than Xbox360 games when there are comparisons between the two systems games.
Oh the rampant hypocrisy...You can't see that?

Carmack is the kind of guy that speaks off the cuff. Whatever is on his mind he lets it out.
Like him or not, he changed the gaming industry and is a genius when it come to game programming.

Now it's obvious that PC's outgun consoles. This is common knowledge. It's not even close.
We seen it with games like Crysis, Metro 2033, and many others.
PC's and consoles all have their place and I game on all of them and would never want to se...

Bring it.
My two 5970's in crossfire should run this game just fine.

Are you serious? No..you did not really post this:

"Personally id rather they use interactive ray tracing over raster for the global illumination in this game."

You OBVIOUSLY were drinking anti-freeze at the time of posting this. You're forgiven.

Ray tracing in REAL TIME IN GAME cannot be done in even on high end PC's running GPU's in QUAD Crossfire or QUAD SLI and you expect a mobile 1st generation quad core CPU with on...

So you're saying 99 cent games with smaller budgets are to be compared to games like MGS, LBP, GOW, GTA etc on the PSP? Games like Plants vs. Zombies or Parachute Ninja?
Really? Really?

Name me ONE game that is of the same quality as GOW or MGS on the IOS platform?
Good luck. There is none.

In sales yes.
The iPad 3 most likely will sell more units.
Quality of games?
No.
99 cent games will not have the gaming budget of games like Killzone on the Vita etc.

Eventually tablet and cell phone games will match the quality and scope of dedicated hand-helds as upcoming cell phones and tablets will be more powerful than the Vita.
But the question is:

Will software companies spend millions to create smart phone games...

Left4Dead collection on 1 Blu-Ray disk with extra content and goodies Valve for the PS3 baby and that would be a great reward.
Allow future Valve games on the PS3 to be modding like the PC versions and all would be right with the world for PS3 owners.

COD will sell more than BF3. That's a given.
If anyone says otherwise they are kidding themselves.
BF3 is CLEARLY the better quality game. Hands down from what we have seen from both games.
It's not even close.
MW3 is essentially the same game as MW2, Black Ops etc. Same engine. Same game play...Aim assist. etc.

Activision knows they do not have to spend an extra dime to make the game better because it will be bought in droves by t...

Cinematic Scenes add to the atmosphere of the game. I for one would never want to see them go. It brings more immersion into the game.
This ain't space invaders. Uncharted's Cinematic Scenes with its action make this one of the best games this generation.
Why take out a great thing?
And while I am at it...
Why does N4G.COM approve such retarded stories anyways?
