GTA IV could in NO WAY run on the Wii.
Well....maybe at PS2 levels, so that means no procedural animation or proper physics, lol...
I *LOVE* FF VIII
It's by far and away my favorite.
AHAHAHAHHAAHHAAHA
Genius
WOW.
LOL @ 1.64 X performance of PS3 over 360.
Games like Killzone 2 are PROOF that the PS3 is a freaking performance GOD.
Deferred Rendering anyone?
360 GFLOPS (GPU included) - 355
PS3 GFLOPS (GPU included) - 582
The cool thing about the whole GFLOPS thing is, unlike the PS2 generation, developers are beginning to realize that it's WORTH extracting all that muscle from the complicated processor architectures. Game...
Exactly.
Also, his character is the exact opposite of Barack Obama's.
If I was barack, I would consider POG as an insult to my image in the highest form.

"Xbox 360 is for people who aren't tech-savvy enough to build their own computer"
I believe you are correct on that, considering a PC can do anything a 360 can do, plus a
WHOLE
LOT
MORE
Where as with the PS3....you'll never see its games on PC, so you'd be foolish not to have one.
Oh, and about the lazy ignorant american thing....I'm American, I'm not lazy (I walk everywhere...
A "few"
I rest my case.
The Xbox 360 was, and in some ways still is, the worst consumer electronics reliability disaster the world has seen.
That can't be swept under the rug with free warranties.
You've been preaching the same gospel for as long as you've been on n4g.
Why should we expect anything else from you?
Blu-ray is NOT just for videophiles. Game developers say hello and totally rebuke that statement.
The PS3 has more "sex appeal" (as you put it) than any console I've had in my life. I see many people where I work (Electronics in Target) looking at the PS3, and seeing surprised looks upon their faces when I show them the touch-bu...
LINUX FTW
Try it, it opens up a WORLD of free possibilities...
I was specifically speaking about entire game engines (which is what Unreal is)
It gets used as middleware now, and that's a shame, because there's a BUNCH of UE 3 games that don't give the engine the justice it deserves.
I remember seeing UE3 showcased several years ago in Game Informer, and it's a shame now to see it over-licensed and under-utilized by SO MANY GAMES.
Euphoria is just a procedural animation plug-in for a game engine....it's not an entire game engine in and of itself.
Unreal Engine is, however.
Oh, and speedtree is also just a procedural foliage generator plug-in also....it's not an entire game engine.
Speed Tree pisses me off....all the leaves on the tree are so easily seen as 2D, and when you turn from side to side, you can see all the leaves of the trees turning with you too.
LOL
Watch the video again. Although the grass and stuff is animated , your character does not push or interact with foliage ala Crysis, but instead you just clip through it.
YES!
I want to see this on Blu-ray SOOOOO badly....
I need to start saving for an Amplifier with HDMI pass-through.....mmmmm uncompressed LPCM audio.....mmmmmmmmmmmm
Well, I seem to remember that Ubisoft said the PS3's Cell was great for foliage and environmental animation, yet I don't see any foliage reacting to the character's presence.
Your character just clips right through the foliage....you'd think with a 3-core 3.2GHz PPC and a 3.2GHz PPC core with 6 available SIMD co-processors, you'd have enough processing power to run some physics-based foliage.
Oh well.
Maybe the PS3 version will have the perks that Ubi in...
LOL the fanboys don't want to hear this.
I hate middleware.
That's what U.E. 3 has become.
From great, showcased engine to freakin' MIDDLEWARE status.
WHoa what the hell?
And this is news?
July 12-15th, I think?
And thus begins the fall of Microsoft.
