Killzone3, Developers go where the money is. We also shouldn't mistaken trends in gaming and graphics carried over from the previous generation as indicators for the way they're going to be this generation. The fact FPSs steered clear of the GC last gen when it was almost on par with the Xbox is fair testament to the fact that graphics alone aren't the only detourant.

The only real problem I see happening is developers relying on the "Wow" factor of impressive graphics as the only way to do FPSs now. It is certainly Sony's angle on the matter, but of course Sony is going to make the fullest use of its graphics and brag them up, that's expected and deserved. However the FPS genre as a whole (even outside of Sony) has seemingly become hijacked by graphics and the need to compare them by which FPS can deliver the most realistic graphics. As an Xbox fan I'm worried what this means for the future of games like Halo which didn't necessaraly do well because of graphics but rather made a game that was over all well rounded and fun.

 

Yes its all about money, and potential sales are 6 times bigger on the PS3/360 then the wii.  This does not inculde a potentiala PC version.  Graphics matter to FPS fans, its just a fact of life some would argue just becasue they are wii owners.  Most talked about shooters frm E3 are Killzone CallOfDuty4 and Crysis, what do they have in common?

 Halo had really good graphics, i dont know what your worried about.


How do you figure potential sales are 6 times bigger on the PS3/360? Your assumption that FPSs need graphics to be good is somewhat misguided as well and just shows you falling in with the current trend as it benefits your own wants in gaming. You have no right to criticize any one gaming group for their flawed views when you yourself are doing that. If your response is going to consists of a baseless statistical claim and casually insulting an entire group of gamers instead of providing substantial logic to support your argument, then I see no reason to give you any more of my time.
