Forums - Sony Discussion - PS3 exclusives, best graphics on any console?

Despite all of the Hi Res, so detailed you can see their nose hairs, 1080p magic that I've seen via photos, MGS4 didn't impress me at all. But Uncharted 2 is really getting the job done. It's this generation's best looking console game. So, yeah. PS3.

The developers of naughty dog have already said uncharted 3 will look so much better than uncharted 2 :D

The bar for best graphics is always moving. This year happened to be a year in which the PS3 had some games that pushed the bar farther than any 360 game, without question.

But both systems graphically are pretty close when it comes down to it. I just hope that game companies will be able to keep pushing both machines until the next round of consoles come out.


Quite a few of the exclusives on ps3 are now quite away ahead of anything on Xbox. And early next year with Heavy Rain, GT5, God of War 3 it will become a big talking point.



I think the PS3's prettiest games are more of a reflection on those developers who made them versus the PS3's capabilities.

MGS4 and Heavy Rain both have graphics sim to GTA 4, The only reason why Heavy Rain is supposed to have good graphics is cause the facial details, but no doubt they are VERY good. MGS4 has bland textures.

Yes, now if they could use their "Graphic Abilities" to make the slim not look like a rusted VCR played. Bring back the gloss and keep the current logo! It'd look nice and still be slim.

My question is...

If the PS3's hardware is factually inferior to the XBox 360's with respect to a less powerful GPU and the lack of eDRAM (thanks to eDRAM, the XBox360 avoids some AA, buffer and alpha blending issues), BUT can run games as those aforementioned, how could it be with the same GPU and eDRAM (and what about unified RAM)? Ok, this question may seem stupid because this isn't the case at the end, but it helps to note the point that I'm trying to show up.

The answer is... "teh Cell". Seriously, thanks to the Cell, developers can free up some work from the GPU, so they have more room to improve the graphics. Naughty Dog mastered the use of the SPUs. Thanks to this, we (well, those who own it ) can enjoy the technical marvel that Uncharted 2 is. For the first time, we're seeing how a powerful CPU makes a difference; it's not just about the more powerful GPU.

By the way, I'm not saying that the difference is that enormous, but it is enough to outperform its competitor in some cases, if developers know how to squeeze its possibilities.

^^In my humble opinion.
