"We just walk around with the expectation that a system this hyped and powerful to outdo the xbox 360 immediately, but that isn't shades of reality."
No it isn't reality you are correct, but it is exactly what Sony has been promising for far too long (the "next gen starts when we say it does" nonsense). And then all the PS3 fanboys starting reciting Sony PR like some kind of mantra, at the same time putting in snide comments about a perfectly capable (more ...
Planet Gears of War: In terms of pure hardware horsepower, how much of the 360’s power does Gears use? Are we seeing the limits of what the console’s capable of?
Cliff: The games that leverage the most of any console are always later in the cycle of the system’s life. This is the first Xbox 360 game that Epic Games has shipped. I somehow suspect that future Epic and Unreal Engine titles will be even more beautiful and compelling on the platform.
Mark: I think we...
BIG DEAL!!! I have 2 512mb 7800GTX's in SLI, if you want to talk about power. Beside the 360 outclasses the 7800GTX.
DJ could you give me a link where gears takes up 7.8 of available 7.9 Gb of disc space? There isn't one, because you pulled it out of your a$$, I can;t even find it in Epics forums. If Oblivion can fill up half of a dvd-9 gears should use about the same space or less.
It states Gears of War uses half of a DVD-9 LOL. It is in this story.
"They downplayed a seeming Sony advantage on disc capacity: Sony games can come on Blu-ray discs that contain about seven times the data of the DVDs 360 games are made on. Not an issue, Henson said: " 'Gears' is using half a DVD."
http://www.mtv.com/news/art...
Gears is using 40% of the 360's power and half of a DVD 9, Resistance uses more than 20% of the PS3's power because even EA uses that much and what that game was 16gb, if you ask me RFOM is a waste of space. LOL PS3 is equivalent to the 360 and will never show any superiority, how many time do I have to post developer comments about the Cell and RSX. About how the Cell would have performed better if it was a traditional CPU, and how the RSX has the same bandwidth as a nvidia 7600 a low end ...
Microsoft is going around the US with a 360 and PS3 hooked them up to the same TV and show that the PS3 is not superior. THe funny thing is it is not superior, and the only reason the games look as good as 360 games is because of the art assets, but the framerate and lighting is always better on the 360 version. And the HD-DVD add-on has just as good picture as 1080p blu-ray, funny thing is the HD-DVD was being upscaled to 1080p.
LOL IF you WAIT they will come. Motorstorm looked ugly as hell at target. Like a game from 2003.
Juevani you are on a roll now aren't you, finding every anti-360 article you can find. I'm sorry Gears is outselling anything on your beloved PS3, don't be jealous. Gears of War is going to be GAME OF THE YEAR and there is nothing you or any other Sony fanboy can do about it.
Secondly, this guy is obviously trying to pimp GRAW 2 because Gears is sooo good I have beaten the single player twice.
PWNED
Criterion are Sony fans wholeheartedly, so yeah they will intentionally skimp on the 360 version.
Here is a link to the whole interview:
http://ncroal.talk.newsweek...
Remember that the RSX only has a 22.4GB/s link to its local memory bandwidth, which is less than 60% of the memory bandwidth of the GeForce 7800 GTX. In other words, it needs that additional memory bandwidth from the Cell’s memory controller to be able to handle more texture-bound games. If a good portion of the 15GB/s downstream link from the Cell processor is used for bandwidth between the Cell’s SPEs and the RSX, the GPU will be texture bandwidth limited in some situations, especially at...
Do you come in every article running your fanboy mouth? Alot of people love the 360, just because you can't afford one don't ruin everyone elses time on this site.
Developers thought on Cell and RSX:
"There are some challenges involving the architecture of the Cell, the cell consists of PPE and SPE cores. A developer states, "It is impossible to extract the full performance of the Cell on launch titles, it will take time get familiar with it". Another developer states that they are having difficulties with the 256KB memory of each SPE core. The actual useable area of the 256KB is closer to 128KB when buffering is considered wit...
When I am talking about unified architecture I am not referring to the RAM. I am talking about the fully programmable pipelines on Xenos, something that the PS3 doesn't have.
Hell the PS3 is getting PWNED by Blazing Angels!!!
"Surprisingly, however, the textures of the buildings in London and other environments seem a little scaled back; they just don't look quite as detailed as the Xbox 360 version, but it's not something I really noticed during the intens...
It could be any of those, I was just curious how they could pull it off so fast. I guess ports from the PS3 to the 360 are easier than from 360 to the PS3.
The 360 must be easy to develop for since they just announced it for the 360 and it will be ready to ship in a couple of months.
Is more powerful than the 7800/7900 series and the x1900xtx, it is more powerful than the RSX(RSX stands for Really Slow compared to XBOX). Cryengine was designed with PC's in mind not a multimedia processor like Cell. So I bet Crysis would run alot better on the 360. Also the 360 has more available RAM, since the OS doesn't hog it all like with the PS3. By the way DJ I don't know where you get your info from, but unified architecture beats last-gen architecture, nothing you say or facts y...
Last time I checked the PS3 isn't a 360 or a high end PC. UT 2007 for 360 team WOOT!!!
You were hoping for!
Motorstorm is sooo awesome, NOT. I guess it doesn't look or play well like all of the other PS3 games.
"Motorstorm already smokes any 360 driving game. go see for yourself at any PS3 kiosk. "
You are kidding me, right? The bushes on the ground in motorstorm are 2D sprites. The crowd is also 2D. Flat. When you fall off the motorcycle and slide over the ground, the bushes actually clip through your player. Lame.
The explosions look good, but they only run them in slow motion. I seriously wonder if they HAD to run them in slow motion to get all the calculat...
