Lord Flashheart said: Different game. Probably different team working on it. If DA is so downgraded then how come bioware was able to make ME2 look soo much better than DA? So I can't argue points now? You've been bringing up anything you want to but I can't? You do like telling people what they can and cant use or say but don't like living up to those restrictions yourself. The cell is more powerful but is that enough? Does that mean the 360 CPU isn't up to the job it was designed for? Nope. The cold hard fact is the RSX isn't up to the job as well as the Xenos and the cell HAS to take over. that can't be ideal but does show how good teh cell is. So a tri-core it's not up to the job, well 6 hardware threads available, because? "The CPU cores (there are three) are the highest frequency PowerPC cores currently available, running at 3.2GHz." Dated? You should read this http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/power/library/pa-fpfxbox/ or anything on the Xenon. It was hardly dated when released."Shippy doesn't believe that Microsoft yet knew that Sony had the PlayStation 3 in the works -- but liked what it saw in the PowerPC technology that was now possible thanks to design principles partly researched for Cell. "The initial tech that we built -- yes, it was paid for through the Sony-Toshiba-IBM Design Center, and was developed for the Cell chip," says Shippy." 512MB of ram is low? I agree it should have been at 1GB like in the PS3... oh wait how much does the PS3 have? Unless your point is there are aspects about all the consoles that were dated then I agree but you should say that. If you are now nitpicking the 360 then I suggest you stop. So the AA is ok now? It was nonexistant before? I'm instistng on ingame because you used a promotional shot to show how the graphics in ME2 suck. Also no motion blur? No depth of field? So Bioware decided to remove them from the sequel? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCFOVvtPSlY go to 1:09 As for motion blur I'm sure thats in there. once we get some footage of sheapard running whilst in combat you'll see. So now you think there will be better looking games coming out for it in the future? But you'd been desperately trying to claim it's 100% maxed out as say EA. Which is it? Maxed out or not? No AA or some? Now as for the Low poly count. I'm thinking you need your eyes checked or maybe you turn of youtube and get a 360 with ME2 and tell me it's low ploy. Your explanation for why multiplats can never look as good as exclusives is fanboy nonsense. If the engine is powerful and capable enough there is no reason why it can't have the best looking games running from it. Why can't it be tweaked for each machine? How well a game looks and plays is down to the engine running it. It's not b3yond the realms of possibility. Because the game is recommended for a certain gpu doesn't mean that it will look the best on that gpu. Crysis had a recommended GPU but it sure as hell didn't run with everything at ultra settings on it. Doom3 had a recommended but it was a while before you could get a rig that played it at full whack perfectly. The recommended system requirements are a guide line to so you have a decent idea as to how well the game will play on you PC not stating if you meet these requirements the game will run at 1900x1200 on ultra at 60fps. Please stop putting the 360 down with nonsense or just stick to the PS boards where you can rag on it with like minded "fans" You constant want to assert that the 360 is "weaker" than the ps3. Why? what does it mean to you? It seems the one defending like a 15yo is you with these constant knocks on the 360. |
What the hell is "Soooo much better"? You can't be taken to have a serious point when you throw around subjective and frankly silly comments like that. DA was downgraded, no point in arguing it and ME2 on the 360 has technical issues according to IGN.
You were arguing a point with yourself about lazy devs. Read that? Arguing with yourself. Pointless
The Cell is more powerful, and unlike the 360 CPU, the Cell can help out with the graphics. Considering the cards were close to begin with, it may be enough to give the PS3 the leading edge and the results seem to be there (Uncharted 2). The Cell isn't taking over - you clearly don't understand the ****** process here of how it works, and are acting as if it's a short coming of the GPU. The Cell was designed to do graphics AND processing, so not to use it for graphics would be like keeping a Ferrari from going above 40mph. Therefore it IS ideal that the Cell works in conjunction with the GPU as it was designed to do so.
Tricore is dated, and was dated back then. The PowerPC cores were meant for the Cell and the Cell is far more than just a tricore processor.
The PS3 has 512mb yes, but half of it is 256mb 700Hz (same as 360 speeds) the other is 256mb at 3.2Ghz. That's higher than DDR3 RAM today by a long shot and is 450% faster than the 360 RAM in terms of speed.
No, the AA obviously helps, but not enough. Not my fault your grasp of grammar was abysmal.
Yeah 1:09 is the end of the video, so it shows nothing other than the game name and logos....Nice. And where is the feild of depth? The textures hardly look high resolution (look at the weave of her clothing) and so on. The graphics are nice, but nothing that hasn't been done a lot better before.
Well I was dubious as whether EA had maxed it out as they aren't known for exclusive titles, but now Bungie have said they have maxed out the 360, so yeah, I don't think games on the 360 will look great in comparison to PS3 games. And yeah, ME2 is low poly count, if you can't see that from the surrounding environment you are being kidded by the bump mapping.
I'm the one talking nonsense, and yet you really expect devs to tweak games for each machine? That's not cost effective. Simple, and that's why it doesn't & won't happen. Obviously an engine made specifically for the 360 will run better on it than an engine made for the PC and ported to the 360.

There we are. It runs great on the 8800GT at a higher resolution than 720p. Research could help you avoid wasting time arguing some points.
Actually you are the one who mentioned the 360's power. I've stuck behind my argument that ME2 doesn't look graphically great, and to expect a non-exclusive title to be the best looking game on a console is absurd. To be blunt, I know the PS3 is more powerful than the 360 & I really don't care because my PC is more powerful than both. You're the one arguing over facts for whatever reason.
