...and poor Real Freakio can only resort to some old and biased MS analysis. Unlike for the PS3, there is no dev stating 360 is the most powerful console and unlike for the PS3 there are no true native 1080p games announced. All I could find about 360 and 1080p was this:
"As far as we can tell, 1080p isn't intended for games, contrary to Sony's approach with PlayStation 3."
Case closed, 360 can't handle it or tell me please where are the games?
Dream on ...
jib - You got me here. PC's are always ahead when it comes to resolutions, but it's only on small screens and you need top of the notch high end PC with SLI/Crossfire to run next gen games in such resolutions. HL2 is not next gen, but a 2 years old game. And let's not forget as I already mentioned PC games are installed on HDD and don't run only from a DVD.
The upscaling patch is just a MS marketing trick. PS3 don't need to upscale to 1080p, cause every TV that's capabale of 1080p will do it. That's why this patch is only a marketing trick, if you have a Tv capable of 1080p, it will do the job, no patch is needed.
...cause it depends from your PC hardware if you can run at such resolution with all effects on. PS games ain't true native 1080p btw, the devs ain't rendering the games in 1080p, only your monitor upscales it if your hardware can handle it. Let's also not forget that PC games are installed on HDD and don't run only from DVD.
The sad truth is that MS uses any trick now to compete with Sony and to downplay the PS3. They realesed a patch that upscales games to 1080p. Then they said wi...
...than for multiplayer gaming ;-)
Twice the size but half the price, thanks Sony :-D
...Lair is a true next gen title that would even without 1080p blow every 360 game.
I also wonder about which 1080p 360 games you are talkin about. Upscaled doesn't count, what I wanna see is true, native 1080p 360 games.
I was on 1up and I couldn't find anywhere such an announcement. Is it because 360 isn't capable of it and they took the news down? It seems so, looks like these games were running 15fps LOL
The only I could find was:
"As far as ...
You get for almoust $100 less everything what 360 with HD-DVD playback offers + future proof HDMI + a cheap way to upgrade your HDD(twice the size for half the price) + a cheap way to charge the controllers. Thanks Sony :-D
...then 360 games surely look like PS1 graphics. Some fanboys are biased, but some fanboys are biased as hell and blind.
Any with sense can see that this game looks almoust if not 100% like the e305 CGI.
...than you have on your 360 ;-)
Uhmm I don't know about you, but I don't see any true, native 1080p titles for the 360 insight. Maybe because such games will run 15fps and be on 3 discs or more? LOL
The prisedrop was because Japan was complaining badly and because of the simultaneous Wii release.
Deleted by mod: Off topic, please post about Motorstorm
IGN: For the past few generations, Factor 5 has been leaned towards exclusive games -- namely on Nintendo systems -- is the announcement of Lair an indication that you'll be a PS3-exclusive developer?
Eggebrecht: First of all, we never have been manufacturer-exclusive. We did games for the SNES, Genesis, PlayStation, N64, GameCube, and many others. It's just that we prefer to pick one platform for any given game. We don't like ports that compromise features.
From the tec...
...and 360 probably won't deliver such graphics with such physics even in it's 4th gen LOL
"The facts are that with this software update, video and game content developed for 1080p will be output at 1080p"
Before celebrating you should first wait for games that are developed for 1080p...if there will ever be some. I really doubt 360 can carry such games, well maybe at 15fps and on 3 discs LOL
BTW you was proven wrong on many occasions: Claiming you use 1 account untill you got exposed, ridiculous MS comparison, ridiculous screen comparsions and ridiculous...
Are you serious calling upscaling to 1080p an amazing thing while bashing the real native 1080p? LOL that's pure fanboyism without any sense folks.
Sony delivered almoust eveything they said. 1080p, HDMI, the superior console and a lot of launch games. The only thing they didn't deliver is the worldwide launch. On a sidenote, without Australia you can hardly call the 360 launch worldwide and Sony if they wanted to, could launch in the 3 main markets with such poor numbers like MS...
...why else 360 can only upscale to 1080p. If 360 would be capable of native 1080p, they would surely make a use of it.
The Xboxfanboys like to cry PS3 is way too expensive, but in fact it's very cheap for the things it offers, much cheaper than the 360. Let's see what Xbox360 would cost if it would only offer just the not so future proof HD movie playback:
$399 Xbox360 premium + $199 HD-DVD addon = $598
Almoust the price of the future proof 60GB PS3. Xbox 360 sadly still lacks Wi-Fi, HDMI and offers only a 20GB HDD.
If you don't care about HDMI and think movie studios won't u...
...such cable is too expensive, complicated or just simply impossible. MS don't wanna stand behind, that's why they lied now about 1080p. If they could make an affordable HDMI cable, they would surely do it. BTW it would be yet another overpriced accessorie to milk you ;-)
...cause I love GoW and find that's the best game ever. I play many great PC games, but none comes even close to the experience GoW delivers.
I don't understand why people think Halo is the king of FPS games and everything must be compared to it. On PC this game isn't anytything special. In singleplayer it doesn't even come close to Half Life 2 or FEAR and in multiplayer to BF2 or CS:Source.
Although many Sonyfans bash Xbox for it's best games beeing mostly FPS, I can understand...
...maybe cause some sites got a call of the sort:
"Uhhmmmm well...360 is capable of native 1080p...but...such games run 15fps...and...need at least 3 discs...sorry for that...we give our best...but...that just ain't enough...we can't do wonders with the 360 hardware...and the sad truth is 360 can't handle it"
