No, its not even that, you're implying that because more effort is needed to acheive parity on certain aspect of programing then it is overall the lowest common demoninator! |
Uh, no i'm calling it the lowest denominator because:
1) Cevat did, take it up with him.
2) It's going to take more effort to bring it up to the 360s current and final level...which a vast, vast majority of multiplatform games never reach, let alone surpass. The 360 is the basis for comparison and the PC will easily outperform it given sufficient spec, it's the PS3 thats going to take the most hand holding...like trying to get a PS2 to run Chaos Theory on an Xbox level.

I'm just repeating it.
Taking something out of context would be MikeB claiming that they'd need to "limit" it to the 360s abilities, when they'd already stated the PS3 nearly scuppered my Crysis 2 console release...like he did earlier, but no-one seems to be calling him out for that.
mibuokami said:The reason the PS3 is much harder to program for than the 360 is because it uses a complete different CPU architecture that is actually more advance than the 360 which uses a PC legacy design (which is much more friendly to most PC developer.) |
Ok, you don't need to drag out your responses with tat like this, we all know this stuff, it doesn't need repeating.
mibuokami said:You're somehow implying that because the PS3 is harder to program for (due to the fact that it is fucken new and developer are not familiar with the design) it is somehow the lowest common denominator in a technical showdown! |
You still think the Cell is "new", developers have had them since 2005...and the retail system is over 3 years old. When do you think they started making PS3 games? Launch day? Get real man.

No, a better example would be 200 chainsaws issued to 100 workers.
One type of chainsaw comes pre-assembled, well maintained and brand new and it works well.
The other is disassembled and comes with chinese assembly instructions...and no-one reads chinese.
Maybe after a long time and some chinese lessons you could assemble it and it might be a better chainsaw...alternatively if it's not assembled in exactly the proper way, it will not perform even as well as the pre-assembled chainsaw in as much as say 95 workers out of 100.
The sad thing is, this lumberjack needs to make sure all of his workers need to be trained in the use and assembly of both chainsaws (for health and safety reasons)...and
