wait, what?
"The PS3 outclasses the Xbox in terms of maximum resolution.
While the Xbox's menu screens support 1080p display, Microsoft only requires its games to support 720p."
firstly, the xbox 360 offers MORE resolutions as well as the same MAXIMUM resolution. when you use VGA or HDMI on the 360, it gives a few new resolutions like 1400x900, 1376x768 etc.
secondly, the xbox's "menu screen" doe...
its obviously a developer issue. or are achievements not unlocking properly also to be blamed on 'disc access rates'?
epic lulz.
i personally dont like the changes to the look of the dashboard and guide, but each to their own i suppose.
i just think it looks too plain and boring. the 'layered' style of the current dash/guide look much better IMO.
i got one of the invites, so hoping i get accepted into the beta.
tell me, how does the Midnight Purple R34 GT-R behave differently to the regular blue/black/white/silver R34 GT-R? last time i checked a paintjob didnt make the car behave differently.
also, how much difference was there between the Civic SiR-II from 91 to 92? then again from 92 to 93? because all 3 of them are in the game.
how about the R33 GT-R between 95, 96 and 97? cause theyre all in it. how about the R33 V-Spec GT-Rs of the same years? surprise surprise...
this is why people with half a clue about technology have been saying they'll just wait until glasses-less 3D tvs come out. it wasnt a matter of 'oh i wonder if theyll make them?', it was 'i wonder when theyll be released?'.
woah, you guys have actually run into people on the PSN with mics!? theyre as rare as hens teeth.
wow, you guys have no idea what cell-shaded actually is if you think Rage looks cell-shaded in any way.

how did SOAD get so many disagrees for stating a fact that even the developers of Killzone 3 have confirmed?
Killzone 3 in 2D is 30fps maximum. FACT. END OF STORY.

"Eurogamer: Are you allowed to talk about any technical details?
Steven Ter Heide: Absolutely. It's 720p, like Killzone 2.
........
how can ANYONE say that Killzone 3 has better textures than Rage?!
the entire engine that Rage is built upon was basically made for Texturing lol. have a look at picture 2 for example. look at the different and highly detailed textures on every single thing in Rage. then look at Killzone 3.....are there even any textures there? the ground is basically just grey. the wall on the left is basically just grey with bits of a darker grey painted on. the little rocks in the bottom l...
lets put GT5 in perspective:

Forza 3 number of skylines: ~5

NFS:Shift number of RX7s: 1

no, im just pointing out ways it could be improved.
do i think the PS3 would be better with a 360 controller? for sure. but thats not what im saying. im just pointing out some flaws in the PS3 controller and what they should do to fix them if they are going to keep using the same 15 year old design.
cool little story, but i couldnt care less about what is on each button. for all i care they could be labelled 1, 2, 3 and 4. i actually wish all hardware developers would form a standard for button naming, that way multi-platform games controls would map across easier for instructions etc.
having grown up using every controller since the atari 2600 single button joystick, the 360s controller is easily the most ergonomic and best to date. everything about it is perfect EXCEPT...
$12 a year to simply have a second character in a single game?
easily the biggest ripoff i have ever seen in videogame DLC history. what an absolute joke.
it would make it perfect. the reason they dont have a dpad like that is because sony has a patent on it, meaning microsoft have to use a different design.
and microsofts design for dpads sucks. the newer controllers have a significantly better dpad, but it still falls behind. its a good thing that 99.9% of games dont use the dpad for anything other than menu navigation type control.
@HeroXIV: "They're NOT in this for the end-consumer and HOPEFULLY they'll be gone from the gaming business soon. "
no $hit sherlock. but heres the kicker - Sony arent in it for the end-consumer either! never have been, never will be. Sony, like Microsoft, are a company. all they care about are profits because without profits, there will be no company.
on the topic, i dont see why PS+ would change Microsofts approach to Live. PS+ is basicall...
@AtatakaiSamurai:
ummm martyrdom kills people.....the whole point of NOT killing people is to, well, NOT kill people. using martyrdom is the opposite of that.
good luck to him i suppose. its certainly 100% possible, itll just take a long time and wouldnt be very fun.
lol
which console has the most sales, the 360 or the PS3?
simple question, answer it.
if you answer correctly and say the 360, it means that Microsoft is winning. if you answer incorrectly and say the PS3, youre an idiot, and Microsoft is still winning.
there will be no eating of words from me, as this is always the way GT - and Forza - has done things. they have 2 LOD models for each car. 1 for replays/photo mode, 1 for in-game.
so you get ready to eat your words when you just stop your car in-game, move the camera around, and see the car model missing all the details in the headlights, taillights, etc.
also theres the fact that 800 of the 1000 cars are PS2 models upscaled, meaning their polygon count will...
@Drfreeman:
there have been 6 halo games so far. 1,2,3 and Wars are full releases, ODST is an expansion. it doesnt matter if it was full priced, it was announced as an expansion and even bungie call it an expansion.
halo reach will be the 5th full game. now remember, halo 1 came out in 2001. so in 10 years (2001-2010 inclusive), they have 5 games - 1 every 2 years on average.
then look at some PS franchises:
Ratchet and clank...
Forza 3 rated higher than Killzone 2, yet PS3 fanboys still say its no good.
