Well at least they are being honest and explaining that due to the differing strengths and weaknesses of each console they couldn't make every version exactly equal. I hate when devs just lie and try to act like all versions of their game are exactly the same even when it is plain as day that they are not.
No doubt. Reach's visuals don't get near enough credit. I don't know what it is but it seems like some people are biased against it because the graphical style is still the quintessential 'Halo' art style that they are so familiar with so they somehow don't notice how great the graphics really are in Reach.
Yes people, please go do some research instead of taking insomnium's word for it. Things didn't go down the way he is saying they did. Go read articles from 3 or 4 years ago and tell me what you find.
You won't find a small bastion of PS3 fanboys being beaten up by a horde of 360 fanboys the way some of the PS3 fanboys would lead you to believe. You will see that there were a fairly balanced number of PS3 to 360 fanboys and they both went after each other. PS3...
insomnium, it would be one thing if you stuck up for the truth when it favored the 360 as well as when it favors the PS3. But when you stick up for the truth only when it favors the PS3 or makes the 360 look bad then it doesn't really seem like your true motivation is a quest for truth.
There is bias in the media, but it isn't some monolithic conspiracy against one console or another. There is bias of all kinds in the media. There are those that are biased towards ...
God of War 3 is a rare exception. It was done for E3 many months before the final game shipped and they just decided to use that same demo for the general public. That is NOT the way things are usually done.
You are jumping to conclusions. First of all you need to provide some sources. However, assuming you are correct there are other explanations other than the one you assumed.
For example, maybe many of the people that have been buying the 360 S are people that already own a PS3 and have an established network of friends on PSN so they have decided not to get Xbox LIVE yet.
As for PSN's numbers, well I don't trust them. The fact that PSN is free and ...
"I guess in order to keep up with Sony, MS has to sell old tech for way too much..."
Yes, the best way to get customers is to sell your old tech for way more than it is worth.
That makes so much more sense than what rrjim1 said. /s
No, the 360 is selling well because it is a great console that fits many peoples' gaming needs very well.
You don't understand anything about the free market do you? Prices are set by the consumers. If the price is more than the value people perceive that product to offer then they simply won't buy it.
The fact that the 360 is selling well means that those people did think it was a good value. They CHOSE to spend their money on that product rather than on any number of other products that they could have bought with that same money.
Ignorant people l...
What are you saying? It is a huge graphical leap from Gears of War 2. Going from a lighting engine that mainly only handled specularity to a full real time light and shadows engine is a huge improvement. They have also vastly improved the engine's ability to handle complex foliage for grass, plants and trees.
Watch the video below and notice how amazing the lighting is. You will also notice the improved lushness of the foliage. Even the textures seem better, but that...
Yes guys, let's believe one of the biggest PS3 fanboys on youtube. I'm sure he is telling the truth. /s
By the way, your videos suck.
Bungie really do listen and they also come up with some of the best ideas. There are plenty of other games I like, but Halo is a very powerful franchise that keeps me playing for years.
And you are also correct about the graphics. There isn't a single other shooter with this kind of scale and action that has graphics this good.
I agree with you Bigpappy, it is far fetched. It is either for a new Zune or something like that, or the author is wrong and Microsoft really are working on a handheld system.
It is a beautiful game in my opinion. I love the gameplay set up in which the monkey guy has to protect the girl or else he will die. This honestly feels like one of the freshest games to come down the pike in quite some time.
I'm just wondering where is the evidence that ps3 exclusives haven't been matched?
The 360 is equal. When are the ps3 boys going to stop buying into Sony's hype? Listen to actual developers like John Carmack who know what they are talking about. The two consoles are essentially equal. In fact, Carmack says the 360 has the edge in every category except for the greater capacity of Blu-ray.

Get your facts straight. Rage was shown running on an actual 360.
Unless you are one of those conspiracy nut jobs that insists on believing that Microsoft paid the developers and the media to lie about it. In which case, I have nothing more to say to you because there's no arguing with crazy.
MGS4 isn't doing anything that amazing. It isn't particularly long and its graphics, while good, are nothing that amazing by today's standards. Assas...
That's right. There is hardly any difference at all between the two. I'm completely baffled by people who act like there is some major difference.
I'm really excited for this game. It's a shooter, but it looks like a really fresh take on the concept. The gameplay looks fierce and the graphics are really nice.
I don't understand your question. What's better than Gears of War 2 on the 360? Well, Alan Wake probably looks better. But then again, Gears of War 2 looks better than all but maybe 2 or 3 games on the PS3, so it's not like it is a bad looking game.
After Gears of War 2 came out a few of the PS3's biggest exclusives came out, like Uncharted 2, Killzone 2 and God of War 3. But things are always changing and now upcoming games like Gears of War 3, Crysis 2 a...
I think that was the point. You can't say Crackdown 2 is a flop without saying that MAG was a flop.
I would say that they are all good games, but not great games.
You are right, Dlacy13g.
Games like Uncharted 2, God of War 3 and Killzone 2 are examples of games made by very talented development studios that also happen to be first party developers and therefor have access to all Sony's tech support and newest techniques, and they also have the motivation to put out the extra effort to push the console as hard as they can.
However, I don't believe the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 in a general sense. Deve...
