If this ever happens it will be a LONG time from now...a very long time.
You will see cloud gaming well before this ever happens.
What is more likely to happen in the future is Mobile gaming killing off dedicated handheld systems...OR dedicated handheld systems merging into all in one devices such as the PS Phone that can run complex games and double as a smart or super-phone with or without dedicated game buttons.
Mobile gaming will not take over con...
If you want bubbles raining from heaven and more on N4G.COM...
Say Uncharted 2 should be number 1....
Flame article. We already know based on the demographics of N4G.COM which beta will get the positive nod...
The PC is that far ahead...from a technical standpoint in running real time effects within the game.
There is a reason Uncharted 3 like KZ3 and Gears of War 3 and the rest of console games have almost NO real time dynamic lighting and soft shadow effects with real time procedural destruction all in one package. It cannot handle it without major compromises.
That is what makes PC gaming that far ahead.
And Tessellation is a big deal.
The di...
They can make i run on consoles....but the question is...at what cost to performance and looks?
The game will be reduced in quality all around...
Now here are a few questions for you:
IS RAGE running a real time Dynamic lighting system? NOPE.
Is Rage running dynamic real time procedural environmental destruction? NOPE.
Is Rage running most of its soft shadow effects in Real Time? NOPE.
So this is why RAGE can run at 60fps. It lacks a environment that is interactive and a lighting system that is all pre calculated and pre baked.

Crysis 2 is not the best looking game on consoles BUT it is also doing many things other exclusive game engines are NOT.
This is where I give credit to Crytek. I get pissed at them for not raising the bar for the PC or doing it this late with the DX11 patch.
ALL console games do this.
When you only have 512 megs of memory and 5 year old technology, you find ways to make things happen.
This is TV folks. Some of you live in fantasy land with magic pixies. They hire woman who look either really hot or good looking with mediocre or great TV/Journalism skills to push ratings.
They do this also for professional sports.
How many hot looking female sideline commentators are there now working for NBC/CBS/FOX for the NFL? LOTS...and they know diddly squat about football....but they look GOOD.
What do you want and expect?

The differences are huge.
Lighting for example is is a major difference. Reflections on the windows do not exist on the Xbox360 version. Textures in the first screen shot is such a huge difference its screaming out.
The biggest differences are shader effects/lighting/HDR.
These consoles lack the ability to do these effects at the same level of detail as a PC.
If you don;t like Kinect, don't buy it...simple as that.
Why should MS apologize for Kinect?
THIS IS A BUSINESS LADIES...
Another console only gamer...
The giveaway that you are?
"(2500$ maybe more)"
Only console only gamers say this.
You can build or buy a pre built custom PC gaming rig for under $800 that does nore that just game and it puts to shame any console

Another crazy PS3 fanboy giving reach arounds to Uncharted in a PC thread.
Gee how shocking on N4G.COM
BTW. stu888...Uncharted 2/3 imo is the best looking console game out...but it does not come close to most PC games...Uncharted 2 has MANY low res textures and low levels of HDR.
Thank the 512 megs of ram and 5 year old tech for that.
Still looks great but stop sucking Sony so hard and try and compare it to most PC games.
You are embarrassi...
@camargo2012
Are you serious with your comment? Maybe you need to look t the pictures provided by the member you commented against. Those are some of the best textures in PC gaming out now.
@stu88
And these are all in game shots. We are talking PC gaming and not console gaming here
The differences are huge imo. The tessellation detail and textures on bricks/surfaces etc are a huge improvement
Looks great
The difference is HUGE.
The biggest difference you can see is Texture detail and the effects of Tessellation.
The differences are night and day.
Compare the differences with the Brick/surface/ground detail in DX11 to DX9 and ANY console games textures for the same type of surfaces.
This is a big difference. These are all Super high resolution textures.
There is NO and I mean NO console game out that has detailed textures like this throughout ITS GAM...
Crytek just redeemed itself.
This is without a doubt one of the best looking games out bar none. With this patch it gives BF3 a run for its money and then some
Kudos Crytek...
You took you sweet time but good gosh you pulled it off.
Once again the differences are almost unnoticeable...
And this becomes HUGELY apparent when seeing the game in motion as opposed to still screen shots.
I can bet the farm If I had one that not a single person on this site for the most part can tell the differences between Multi-Platform games on the Xbox360 and PS3...
There are only a handful where you can spot the differences.
The majority of them are too close to call...
Yet many people on this site ...
You will see dedicated handhelds become all in one devices that will act as smart/super phones and gaming units with or without physical buttons in the near future.
Dedicated handhelds will just change with the upcoming technology and become more of a jack of all trades gaming device. PS Phone is the first step...
Now imagine that PS Phone update maybe in a year from now running Nvidia's updated Kal El quad core chipset inside?
You can see where mobile ga...
