That's news to me. I thought it was still mastering UE2.
If that rumor about CE3 being considered for feature CGI use is true, that's awesome.
But will I be able to play from the International Space Station?
Bubbles!
1. How does Final Fantasy of all games use the PS3 to its max? These games barely even have phsyics. And from what I've seen, the graphics aren't mind-bending. So what could be going on in the background? Twice the grass as Flower?
2. If FF does use 100% of the PS3, and the game is also coming out for 360, the fact that the two versions will be at all similar shoots a massive whole in the theory that the PS3 is lightyears ahead of the 360.
But that doesn't change the fact that KZ2 did not meet the target render, let alone surpass it. Not only are you now the one who's high (which I don't hold against you), but you're a blind fanboy to boot.
Every engine on that list has been used by more than just the devs who designed it. That's why I call the KZ engine unproven. Just because Guerrilla can make a pretty game with it, doesn't mean it's an engine with staying power. Let's wait and see what other devs do with it.
Are any of us planning on buying a PS2 anytime soon? Who doesn't have one that wants one at this point?
DVD9 is old tech? That's the best. The only system cranking out Blu-ray software is PS3 (unnecessarily I might add). 360, PC, and 95% of the movie industry is still more than happy with DVD. DVD9 is here to stay until the next leap.
DVD9 is old tech... =) I love you guys.
I was especially surprised MW wasn't included since that engine is one of the most beautiful my screen has ever seen. I can't imagine the PS3 cult will be happy that Killzone has been left off the list. My only thought, in terms of justification, is that the engine is still unproven.
Very well thought out points. Have a bubble.
I seriously doubt Bioware is expecting everyone to have played ME1. I have no doubt the game will be inclusive enough to allow new players into the fold. It sounds like the save game function will, as you speculated, only enhance the ME2 and ME3 playthroughs. The beauty of this design is that when players get sucked into ME2 and hear all the little references to Shepherd to in the first game, they will be more inclined to do check out ...
But the idea that 360 owners - which is the console many would say is designed the most for hardcore gamers - would jump ship for a barely HD, lag-fest on the distant horizon of the gaming frontier is so laughable I can hardly keep from sh!tting myself.
I love when people - who clearly don't own a 360 - make it sound like just because MS doesn't have the best/any in-house devs, that the platform is a vacant wasteland, devoid of any enjoyable content. They might not be exclusives, but then 360 doesn't really need exclusives lately.
Which of the two actually bothers to advertise its games? (Think Halo. Think Gears. Think not Killzone 2.)
This whole discussion reminds me of an earlier notion when the PS3 launched that has since been forgotten...
Basically, if you look at the architecture, Sony has designed the perfect HD media machine. The way the RAM is allocated through the processor, the GPU, etc...if you want pristine 1080p video, this is the player to use. It is without equal or rival.
It was also never designed to contend in the console war. The 360 came to play games. The PS3 came to put blu-ra...
I've lost track of how many "bars" there've been in this generation.
That's too bad. Because the 360 version was better.
PS - do you have a life, or do you just hover the forums for days on end.
Someone needs to explain to me - with legit numbers cited - why the 360 is now doomed? You keep focusing on its lack of exclusive titles, but look at the titles it's poached from Sony. Claiming that either one of these consoles will fail at this point wreaks of dumb.
I'm not trying to sound life a fanboy. I'm just curious if there's any fact behind this forecast or if it's all flamebait.
ME going multiplat wouldn't be devastating to MS. Given the fact that most multiplat games sell better on the 360, MS hasn't really needed exclusives for quite some time. If ME does go multiplat, it's not going to stop 360 users from buying it. And as a gamer who owns both systems, I'd keep playing it on the 360 mainly because that's where it began.
PS3 users should play this game because it's amazing and I want the franchise to succeed. But all this talk of doom & gloom for ...

How did Epic ruin Gears 2?
Thank you. Sincerely. My very dull day has been elevated by your awesome naivete.
To not mention Gears or RE5 makes me question this guy's motives/objectivity. Then to compare KZ2 and Half-Life 2? KZ ain't the genie in the bottle, but it's certainly got a couple legs up on a game from 6 years ago. And the caption under L4D - so bad it's unplayable, makes him want to vomit - is retarded. It's the same engine that you just said is comparable to KZ! Inconsistent much?
