PS3 disc drive reads slower than the Xbox 360 DVD disc drive, the PS3 loads slower because of a combination of bottlenecks and the way the content is stored on the disc.

All Xbox 360 games are compressed onto the disc while some PS3 games are left uncompressed this can further slow down the transfer rate between the disc and RAM.

No console is faster than it's slowest part.

For gaming speed is as important as size.

RAM is short term memory when a console reads a game disc it loads all the content needed to run the part of the game your accessing into the RAM. Some open world games rely on RAM speed to help stream textures quickly.

Slower the RAM the longer it takes to transfer the content from the disc to the RAM and the longer it takes to load the content for your game.

This is a really bad thing for a modern console and I don't see why Nintendo thought to do this...

Or you know you could push the power button on your computer and stop bitching or you can press Win+C to get the charms bar.

Master Chief isn't American numbnut, he wasn't even born on Earth.

Vortis that is a completely ignorant argument.

They are comparing a PC game to a Xbox 360 game, graphical comparisons are completely moot.

Cobra 11 (Crash Time 5 on X360) looks like complete crap compared to Horizon.....

I have a Slim w/o HDD with a 16GB flash drive, I have all the Forza 4 DLC, Forza Horizon DLC, Gears of War 3 DLC(all of it) and Halo 4 Multiplayer installed.

I would recommend checking out Project Zomboid, it's definitely not as pretty as ZombieU but it's also not as expensive. The game is completely about survival, you have to fight, scavenge and run to survive. You can also craft and barricade a safe house.

I have no problem buying car packs like this in reality these cars cost less than buying a Hot Wheels car. Sure a Hot Wheels car is physical and you can hold it in your hands but you can't drive it, you can't hear it and the quality isn't even close to the digital version you're getting here.

I still don't get the lack of steering wheel argument when Forza supports one of the best on the market.

You clearly haven't used Smart Glass or have much experience playing multi-screen gaming so yes you criticizing smartglass is borderline trolling.

@cgoodno

It's not a tablet controller for the love of god have you even used it before criticizing it?

This is a racing game and looking away from the screen for a millisecond to see a GPS is not only easy while driving in reality but also easy in the game using smartglass.

Welcome to PC Gaming, gaming on two screens is not uncommon let alone gaming on 3 screens. Yes this kind of application works well enough to be a game changer. Even someone with a phone could effectively use it as a GPS while they are driving by placing it in a way where it's easy to see while driving.

Comparing this to looking up cheats is naive and ignorant and just shows that you have yet to actually sit down with a proper setup and used sma...

I'm sorry last time I checked you can't "google" a real time GPS that even allows you to set routes while never even having to pause your game.

4859d ago 12 agree3 disagreeView comment

Sorry but no, I use my main monitor to play Xbox 360 and while playing Horizon I have smartglass running on my second monitor.

I have a real time GPS map that I can not only use to see my route but I can even set routes on it. Halo 4 is going to be a step further allowing you to even accept game invites and compare stats in real time with friends.

Smartglass is definitely a game changer and I can't wait to see what else they can do with it.

Fair enough, believe me I completely understand being tight on money and time.

Both look to be great games have fun!

None of the DLC is required to play the full game and the DLC only adds to the experience other players that don't own the DLC are not affected by it.

Of course they want people to buy DLC just like when a company makes a console they want people to buy games it helps make them money and that money usually goes toward developing more games.

You're missing out on a great game.
