Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Has the 360 Shown Us All What It Can Do & Now Has Run Out Of Breath?

most people do not care about graphics

oh for pity sake.. bhr... give it a rest will you.

How do you even begin to know what it is capable of... you say it looks like it has been maximised. How the fuck do you know?

 

um i didnt write it should not i have bad typing skills and grammer by now i couldnt pull of something like that

Hey! I've got an idea! You could link to the source!

 

OPEN ME for the source

OPEN ME for something else

What a great site.

 



The 360 is known to be easy to work with so developers were able to squeeze out visually great games from quite early, so yes, the improvement hasn't been as massive as on PS3. It's also worth noting though that most of the 360 exclusive games that have great graphics are Unreal engine based games. This could be a case of developers overusing the same engine so even with a variety of artwork the technical improvements are quite small.

However... wait until Cryengine 3 comes out, hopefully there will be a huge improvement on both platforms :D

For me the 360 reached its peak with GTA4.

Probably will see a BIG graphical powerhouse at E3, Alan Wake or Gears 3.

Either way, the PS3 from now will always have the better games graphically.

 

There were ported ps2 games that looked better than GTA4.

 

Plus the PS3 really struggled to run it, so it just goes to show the PS3's peak is much lower than the 360.



I remember an announcement by MS to the effect of "we have something that is better visually than killzone". So if you are going by currently announced games, than i guess yeah, it appears the ps3 is pushing visuals further than the 360. BUT...i think you should at least wait until E3 to try and make this argument when we'll actually know what the 360 has coming out this year.

honestly, i think the worse thing the 360 has in terms of pushing the limits of visuals is 1st party support. 1st party developers always get most out of any given console and sony has more of them.

I don't think it's over yet. Microsoft always seems to keep their 3rd to 4th quarter fresh.

The troll is weak with this one

1. No... no PS2 game looked better than GTA4.

2. GTA4 on 360 makes it sound like a tank and almost blew my Elite up.

3. I have owned a 360 for over 2 years and play it more than my PS3 or Wii... please explain how im a troll?

4. Yes, your trolling was weak.

Whenever the issue of the Xbox 360 running out of technical steam is risen, you always get the same answer, "there's still more it can do", no offence but this excuse is getting old pretty quickly.

 

You want to know what is getting older, faster?  I'll tell you.  Fanboys like you who think graphics are the ultimate deciding factor in what makes a game good. 

Compare Left 4 Dead on my 360 with Killzone 2 on my roommates PS3 and guess what, L4D gets raped pretty bad visually. 

Guess what else, I don't give a shit, and would rather play 30 minutes of L4D than 3 hours of Killzone 2 because it's just more fun.



Even if we have seen the maximum potential of the 360 as far as graphics can be stretched, which is highly unlikely, who cares? Is that suddenly going to make the PS3 have good games and get a price cut to where I'd consider buying it? No.

I think that posts like this are really more telling of the state of the PS3. If you need to put up stuff like this, you're clearly feeling insecure about your console choice... And judging by the number of threads like this, so are a lot of other Sony fanboys. I feel bad for you guys.



Stop getting so excited about a Kid Icarus remake... the original NES Icarus sucked.
