You say how do you tell if a car is better that another car. Well, I have and RX8 and have race just about every stock 4or 6 banger out-there, and destroy them, even if they have more horses on paper.

So you can’t make a snap judgment about anything, at least not in one comparison.

Give the programmers some time to understand the full potential of both systems then judge, watch the market share, at least let PS3 get out of their launch window before you ...

First I would like to say that you CAN vote more that once so I can’t say that this is the best way to determine what system is better. But, if you voted you will see that there are three choices:

YES
The PS3 version is clearly better

MAYBE
The PS3 sort of looks better

NO
What the cell is going on?!

If you picked one of the first two you have voted that the PS3 version looks better. Whether that is by a little o...

I hope it fails but, does well enough to make Apple stay competitive and add new/better features. I even hope that they rethink some of there battery and store/itune polices. I say that cause M$ is already trying to get a monopoly on everything that it touches. The already have one on computers, and now they are trying to get Game consoles and mp3 music. What’s next? Handheld games? Look, I am all for competition but when a big company like M$ starts flinging money all around just cause they...

Yeah the PS3 cpu has 2 main threads BUT I also has 6 SPE's that can handle one thread each. (The 7th is assigned to the OS so you can’t really use it)

So that’s

X360 6 threads
PS3 8 threads

The PS3 has a non-unified memory yes, that just means that programmers need to be more creative and delegate memory space better. Just a different way of thinking when it comes to programming the software. And because of the non-unified...

As for your first comment “Try & get it B4 1 of us dies... Sarcasm..” well you sound a lot older than me so you will probably die first” LOL!

I am 26, and I have two successful businesses as well, that’s why I doesn’t bother me if you will or won’t get the system, it doesn’t make me any MONEY either way!

And yes, you are entitled to you opinion. But to jump in to a forum and talk as if the article is complete fact is where I have the problem.

I let me say it again.

If you 100% agree (with the post that you copied), then you were or are willing to wait for the X360, I say, then wait for the PS3.

If you don’t! (Want to wait for the PS3, then don’t, but you will, miss out)

All that means is that you will not get to play some of the greatest games of all times. There will be great games on the PS3, remember “there will be great games on both sides!” So you will just miss them be...

Instead of talking to me and writing a response to what I actually talked about you copied and pasted someone else’s comment from a different article.

This is what I am talking about. What is you point? Don’t give me someone else’s point. Buy doing this all you really did was prove my point that you and Badcolo are just trying to sell “your” (X360) system.

With that said, you act like MS hasn’t lied too!!!
Like they don’t play number games with system s...

If Nintendo was still on top we would still be playing kiddy games and we would have never had games that changed the industry like

MGS 3
GTA
GT
Resident Evil

Halo
Forza
Fable
Great online experience

Even Gears of War!!

The list goes on and on!

Think about it, if games like killswitch never where made who’s to say that Gears would have ever been made!

I am a programmer, a college graduate (computer Science), a beta tester, and embedded software engineer. But first and foremost I am a GAMER!

I read this post and it’s very bias. And if it was written with the PS3 getting all the “big up’s” and the X360 getting all the downs I would say the same thing.

But this is a blatant slam at the PS3, and 4 days before the system is released in the States. By a person that is neither in the industry nor has probably ever...

A premium system $399 plus two games at $59 a piece, then you get a game for free? That sucks! $520 w/o tax? There are way better deals out there! I can get a Premium X360 for $349 (Brand Smart USA) that’s like getting a game free right there, and that’s regular price! Or I can go to BJ’s and get a premium X360, PGR3, extra controller, and recharging station for $486 (all of these prices are w/o tax mind you) Best Buy is no better than any other money hungry company. Get a better deal! <...

I see where you are coming from, but I don’t want you to get me wrong on this one.

I was only using assembly to illustrate a point.

Programmers are lazy!

If you give us the tools, where it is quicker to use the tool and try and tweak it to our specific need than to go write a better one for ourselves. We will use it, but the result won’t be as good. Again this is why Triple A development houses write their own engines.

I hear X360 fans talk about XNA like it is that holy grail of game programming. Let’s stop and look at some quick facts.

First XNA is mostly for hobbyist to use, in hopes that them will come up with some good content for XBL Arcade

Second Developers don’t use XNA, or at least GOOD developers don’t use XNA
Why because it limits what you can do.(if I am wrong please show me a link to a developer that said that they used only XNA to program their game a...

Epic has used CG twice once on Gears and I will have the link at the bottom of this post and also on Unreal Tournament 07 that is coming out for PS3 And supposedly X360. So .... Everyone uses CG even Epic sorry!

I agree that Killzone was CG and even MotorStorm but .... MotorStorm is so close to the CG that it is crazy. I can't believe that games have come this far that the CG trailers, an idea, are even compared, let alone lived up to the final game. I mean if MotorSto...

First get my name right!

Second don’t waste peoples time with

Quote “Qsquad. Look over your post, it's you that's wrong. ….Notice 4 major errors or lies. Look.
Then look at Sony’s own spec's sheet, your even making bigger lies up than sony has…… Quote

And then 1) don’t show any contrary evidence 2) get the facts, see that I did use a fact sheet and provided a link. 3) Call someone a liar and you didn’t even do your homework

I usually don’t do things like this but when people post stuff like this that is just blatantly wrong and then double post, and then the make fanboy remarks at the end, I just have to stop the madness.

First off all of you links DON’T WORK!

Second four of the Six are not good sources so I read don’t have to go any farther to debunk you whole post but I will continue a bit longer.

that the Cell chip is mort powerful then any single core processor on the market today. This is a true statement! And if you do some homework you would find that Cell is more powerful than any multi cored processor to date as well. Even the Tri-core of the X360.

What does this mean to gamers?
Just that Ps3 has MORE processing power.

The problem is that processing power doesn’t make great games, developers DO. So we can end the discussion about which syst...

See that is what I am talking about assuming the we get Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey what if we don’t.(I don’t think it will happen but)and as for Command and Conquer 3 it has been announced for the 360 but isn’t out yet and LOTR:BFME2 did show that a console can successfully handle a RTS game but it did nothing innovative.

On a different note, I couldn’t even call it a great RTS. Could you? Did you buy it? Truthfully?

I’m not saying that the X360 can’t do it ...

Ok so if both systems are competing directly on power terms, isn’t it the job of the PR department and the rest of sales to try and get people to believe that there respectable system is better, or, in better terms, can and is a breakthrough in computing power.

Don’t get me wrong there is a fine line between lying to the people and telling them theoretical what a system can do.

Lets look at it this way, can the PS3 create an environment were every snow fla...

It’s easier to work backward so let’s go to November 07. Remember this is just speculation!

Nov 07 Halo3

August AC

June BIA:HH

March GRAW2

Nov 06 GOW

If it goes down like this then you will have only 4 months to get GRAW2 ready to ship. And you only have about 2 months average between each release of the titles that I listed. That’s really not that much time betw...

I really wanted AC and BIA:HH both looked great, but now with the delay who knows when we will see them, Think about this, MS had first said that they were going to bring Halo3 out right around the same time as the PS3 launch. Then they said “naw we will bring it out when it’s ready”, which really means that it would better suit us to bring it latter, maybe around Christmas 07. Why, because that is when all the systems will line up at the starting line together.

Now don’t ge...
