it has been maxed out long time ago even the most recent xbox 360 exclusives arent running at 720p (alan wake, SC:C) i guess that gives you a hint.

what about Mass Effect 2??? 

ME2 is not an exclusive :P

And that's relevant because....? ME2 and SC:C are in the same boat, yet you use SC:C because it suits you... And you want to dismiss ME2.. Really sound argument...

LOL you are right, i should have not said SC:C :P i guess i was in a rush, so its now just down to Alan wake

So I guess that fuels the argument that 360 games haven't had custom engines fully taking advantage of the tri-core setup then if only one exclusive so far has been using a semi-custom engine.  (I say Alan Wake was using a semi custom engine because it started out multiplat and then shifted a bit too late for them to focus and optimize solely for just the 360 version).

its not the engine only, the console's Design has to do with alot of the limitations which is obvious . 10 mig ofEDRAM is not enough for a 720p picture with 4X AA and to be honest i dont understand why the hell would M$ promote it's console being able so?!, tons of games dropped the AA for the 720p sake , Alan wake's approach was the exact opposite 4x AA with sub-HD ,it was uneccesery and a big waste of resources and what was the final result? 540p 40% less detail than what was suppose the game look like!
