Naughty Dog : Uncharted would have been a different game without the PS3.

by the logic that scottie uses no matter how technically advanced a game is it could theoretically be reduced to a mere shadow of the real thing and made into an atari game that looks the same as every other atari game. that argument could be made for every game ever made but it holds no water at all because the game would no longer be as good and that's why we advance the technology in the first place, to make the games better.

 

You unfortunately missed my point slightly.

 

I said that I care not for graphics, but only that the gameplay etc are unaffected.

 

Obviously, the 360 is capable of playing Uncharted2 with some minor graphical adjustments but no change to the gameplay

Equally obvious, the babbage engine is unable to reproduce the gameplay of Uncharted 2.

 

Even more obvious, then, is the fact that there must be some cutoff. If we arranged all consoles in a line from least powerful to most, there must be one console that can reproduce the gameplay, levels etc of uncharted but with reduced graphics, and one less powerful console that cannot. The SNES has some excellent 3d games with a steady framerate, many enemies on screen and no problems with cutin distance - Super star wars Empire Strikes back landspeeder levels for example. I therefore propose that a game could be made that plays identically to Uncharted 2, with reduced graphics. It will obviously be able to store this on a consle, because the textures can just be simplified until it does. I would like this game pretty much as much as Uncharted 2. I'm not saying you have to, if you like games with good graphics then you shouldn't let anyone tell you that you're wrong.

 

@ Shoestar - if i am ignorant then I obviously shouldn't even dare respond to you. Your awesome intellect is of course too much for me. if you actually care about hearing my responses to your points, then edit your post and remove the section that calls me ignorant. Don't worry, I'm not going to report you to the mods or anything, so feel free to keep it there if you think it's all that important to insult someone who disagrees with you on the internet

Why would I not call a cat, 'a cat'... You are being ignorant at not knowing the limitations of cartridges. It is not as if I was insulting you or anything else. If someone has blue hair, then I should not say they have blue hair because that is insulting? If you persist at making ill-researched comments/posts that scream out your knowledge limitations, then you should not be afraid of being ridiculed either and do feel free to report as you wish.
