"The PS3 has roughly the same pixel-pushing capabilities as the Xbox 360," asserted Vrignaud. "Don't need to take my word for it, it'll be obvious soon enough over the next year. Even if this wasn't the case, consider we now live in a multi-platform development world, and that the current sweet spot developers are targeting is 720p due to the extremely similar system specifications. Simply put, a developer who is planning to release their game for both the Xbox 360 and the PS3 ...

Let me break it down to you so you understand how this works.

1. If you have a 1080p tv that upscales....when you play a 1080i game....If will then be 1080p. Understand? lol

2. If they make a game in 1080p for the ps3....it will suck so much processing power out of the ps3 that the game will not be very good. It will be a visual treat for those with 1080p tv's but no more impressive than 1080i games that are upscaled on a 1080p tv. Understand?

What are you talking about? lol...lol....lol....The ps2 sold 1 million worldwide in the last quarter. The 360 sold 1.8 million in the last quarter. Keep in mind the ps2 sells for 130. One hundred dollars and some change. lol....The 360 sells for 400 dollars and they sell as much as they ship. So if the sales are down its directly indicative of the amount shipped. lol....Ps2 don't have to ship much because they are stocked up heavily in stores. lol...lol....lol Just stop with the mis in...

“Prey” (Take 2)
“Chromehounds” (Sega)
“Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth II” (EA)

Well Microsoft is re writing gaming history and breaking every record out there.

Xbox 360’s accessory attach rate held steady for the fourth consecutive month at 2.9 accessory units sold per console. At nine months into the lifecycle, Xbox 360 is still setting a record with the highest accessory attach rate of a console launch in history.

The fact of the matter is 360 gamers are a different breed of gamer than sony gamers. Sony's games attatch ratio is a litt...

That game is sooooo fun. Its Mindless Hack n slash. If your not into that type of game. Well, don't get it. lol...its that simple. I'm glad to add that type of game to my 360 collection. I needed that. But it got a mediocre score not because of gameplay or graphics. It got it because the editors at IGN and other sites expected more than mindless slashing of 1000's of on screen enemies. Its all about what you expect and want in a game

The price of the 20 gig will drop and they will announce a bigger hard drive soon. My bet is before christmas or the ps3's launch. With the Seagate merger (the makers of the 360's hard drive) I expect lower prices soon. But keep in mind that you can use your computers hard drive very easily for 50 dollars. It actually works really well. So I not only have my 20 gig drive which hasn't even been halfway used up and I download everything, but I have my 250 gig drive as back up if needed. P...

And with that said its still a great game. I have been playing it all day today. Sure its shallow. But if you like frantic mindless hack and slash games it gets no better than this. Its visually beautiful and sure its not that deep but to have hundreds and hundreds of enemies on the screen all at once and have 500 hit combos...well, its just plain and simple fun. Sure I think it should have been 39.99 but for 50 dollars I'm glad I bought it. And its not for everyone. But its a good gam...

What ever MS ships....WILL SELL OUT. MS has over 24 million fans that will buy the 360 when they can afford it or when it becomes available. MS WILL sell as much as it ships. If it ships in excess of 10 million by the end of the year we can guarentee at least 10 million sold by the end of the year. Thats common sense. The question is how much more can they sell than last time with the xbox. I think personally about 40 million realistically. But we know 24 million WILL purchase the 360....

This is what HD DVD is doing that helps differentiate itself from Blu-ray? Here are a few nuggets to chew on:

VC1 Compression: While both Blu ray and HD DVD players are required to be compatible with three different compression technologies (including VC1), an intriguing trend has already begun. Content providers (movie studios) for HD DVD are nearly unanimously using the brand new VC1 compression technology, whereas Blu-ray providers are sticking with the ten-year-old MPEG 2 c...

Thats what my son told me the other day. "Daddy it would be cool if sony and microsoft and nintendo made one unified system to play all games on."

I thought it was cute. In a perfect world thats how it would be.

hd dvd uses film grain Tech and blu ray doesn't.

7251d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Well every review I have read has cleary said that the same movies thats out for blu ray and hd dvd...the hd dvd versions look better. I know it had nothing to do with filters. I have read it has more to do with the compression technique used for blu ray. VC-1 is required for all hd dvd movies and its an option for blu ray. And also many blu ray movies are still using mpeg compression techniques...lol....Blu ray still haven't figure out a way to use both sides of the blu ray disc so they ...

The price of the hd dvd has NOT BEEN made official by MS. But what has been made official is MS saying that the 360 with the HD dvd add on will cost less than the Ps3 versions. Thats all we know. We don't know the price of the hd dvd add on. We don't know how much of a price cut the 360 will get come November. But we do know that you can buy a 360 for 359.99 on some sites for the premium. We do know there are 3rd party wirless controllers for 29.99. We do know for 49.99 you can buy an ...

I agree. It is a great game. And its the most fun I have had with a game in a while. But there are many other great games out for the 360 worth the price of admission. Prey was a fun ride though only 8 hours but a great 8 hours. Lord of the rings Battle for middle earth is a blast online. Chromo hounds is a blast online though its single player game left much to be desired. Battlefield is a blast online, Call of duty 2 is a blast online and a great single player compaign, I love NCAA f...

Hey, how you been? Sorry I ain't been on here in a while. lol.... I have been playing Dead Rising for 4 days straight. WOW....what a game. I beat it 3 times with 3 different endings. The first day I played it for 23 hours straight without sleeping. That game is ridiculous fun. I would have to say its the best game I have played thus far EVER. And I have played em all. Its just super fun. So yes Jin. We do enjoy our console. And we will continue to enjoy it regardless of how good o...

Thats coo...Yeah us Puertoricans stick together. Thats were I get my arrogance. lol....Its the New york in me. I don't dislike the PS3. I dislike some of the decisions that Sony has made this time. I am very please with the 360 and I have best friends that love Sony. But I have converted a few of them and I'm still working on a few more. lol....I just invite them over and let them experience the 360 in all its Greatness and the rest is history. Some run to get one. Others start to thi...
