If Xbox 360 is capable of running games with better graphics than the Playstation 3, than that is just embarassing, because Sony focused on graphics more than its competitors. If the Playstation 3 doesn't have the graphics, than what does it have? Right now, Nintendo has the controller. Xbox 360 has the games. Playstation 3 should have had the graphics. I don't understand how a game on an HD DVD disc could be better than a game on a Blu-Ray disc.

360 games don't run on hd-dvd, so yeah, it would be very hard for a game on hd-dvd to be better right now; no such device exists.

It is already becoming an advantage for Sony, the blu-ray drive that is, since a collectors edition of Stranglehold will contain a blu-ray version of the movie Hard Boiled on the same disc as the game. Stranglehold is a sequel to the critically acclaimed John Woo movie.

Also, concerning graphics, the only game that has suffered on the PS3 is F.E.A.R. because Day 1 Studios had only worked on the xbox and 360 before. They did both ports from the PC, the 360 version was good but the PS3 version wasn't. That's just a bad port. There have been no other major differences, and many PS3 games look better, like Oblivion, that also loads MUCH faster.

Edit: I'd also like to mention that Day 1 Studios will be doing the multi-platform (360 and PS3) title, Fracture. Hopefully they'll learn how to use the PS3 for that one.

I think what a.l.e.x59 meant is there is no clear-cut or overwhelming graphical advantage to be seen by the PS3 as of yet.

Let's see if Day 1 can come up with a multi-plat title that does show the differences between the two consoles (favorably for the PS3, that is), but I'm afraid that being cross-ports they won't be very different, hence any potential graphic superiority (for either console, if there is any) won't be apparent.


Not sure if it was him or not that I was responding to, but someone said that the games so far showed a superiority on the 360. Other than Gears and that bad port, I disagree, that's all. I'm not sure that any multi-plat release will show any differences unless they are more proficient with one system over another (such as Day 1 Studios so far).

I agree that there is not a clear-cut advantage when comparing games out so far, but we're seeing the PS3 games improving already, and Motorstorm is already up there as one of the best graphical games.


 Huh? Go to IGN head to head, 1up, Eurogamer comparison articles..

 

I dont have time to track down the references but virtually every single multi-plat game so far has run if not looked better on 360. Also, many multi-plat releases have been delayed on PS3. The one exception I know of being Oblivion.
