If graphics reallly matter, practically ALL the hardware wars would be different, my friend: - Master System would have won NES; - ALL the rivals of Game Boy would have won it; - Nintendo 64 would have defeated PS; - DreamCast would have been a success; - PS2 would have been defeated by GC and, specially, Xbox. - PSP would destroy DS in the sales. |
N64 was a cartride joke, anti 3rd party.... PS was not. Sega failed the Dreamcast, could never compete with Sonys bank. Untill the PSP, most of the handhelds competeing with Gb were a joke. PS2 graphics were equal if not better, nothing gc or xbox has looks better then GOW2 |
If you mean in a numerical sense, you are wrong. The PS2 can handle graphics close to the GC and Xbox, but the system can't handle texture compression (due to Sony not knowing about compatibility issues in the GPU before the system was finalized), while the GC and Xbox can handle it. Therefore, most PS2 games are limited to 8-bit textures, even the most advanced games. Plus the GoW games don't even push their textures as much as other PS2 games (such as FFXII and Gran Turismo 4).
The game does look good artistically, but that proves the talents of the developers, not the power of a system.
