RFOM, GEOW, UT3 all these game companies are extremely lucky..................geez LAIR has put CRYSIS in real CRISIS.
hype for any other game has simply faded to 0 after the "water" and monster effects of LAIR.
i had high hopes for FCATOR 5 when they said back at TGS that LAIR would be the most detailed next gen game with 50x more polygons than each char in GEARS.
i dont even want HS, MGS 4,or motorstorm anymore...........all i want is LAIR.
i am no longer attracted to my fav RFOM...........see the LAIR effect.
all over the gaming forums people have just gone crazy with 60% cancellation of preorders for CRYSIS and other games.
Clearly madness starts with motorstorm but is fueled to HELL by LAIR. (the new GOD of all GAMES)
Wtf seriouly.
onward
1. The memory on the PS3 is better than the 360. No questions asked. If you dont beleive me. Go read about how memory is dont on the 360, and how memory is done on a GeForce8800GTX. Or any ATi cards if you think I'm bashing ATi. The 360's memory system is crap.
2. I am talking about water effects that look like real water... and look "good" I was looking at wave-race a while back thinking. Holy crap that water looks HORRIBLE. It came before the nifty animated water shaders I am talking about. For it's time WaveRace was killer. I think waveRace still has some of the best water in a game... ever.
3. I am not saying it effects the gameplay. I am just saying. To do '3D water effects' it takes ALOT of power. I dont know if the 360 could do it without crippling half the game. And I know for a fact, a PC has major trouble with it.
4. If you want a REAL water demo, get a GeForce8800GTX, and get the 'smoke' demo. It has a killer Water demo. However it chokes out the card for a tiny window... With no textures or anything. Just the water.
5. I am in no way saying the PS3 can do everything and anything. It cant.
The RSX has about 25-50% more power than the 360's graphics card.
The RSX has XDR memory, wich is at least 3x faster than what is on the 360. That makes a BIG diffrence.
the CELL has a memory architure, where the processor dosent have to wait on the memory. The Cell has more memory bandwidth than alot of graphics cards have... Wich is ALOT more than any CPU.
Power. the PS3 blows the 360 out of the water. In terms of wich will look better? the 360 has a few perks to make it look better with less effort. the PS3, will look the same with minimal effort. and look better with more effort.
Dont compare the 360 to the PS3. It's biggest hardware advantage agianst the PS3 is the disk read speed. which oblivion proves dont matter.
The Wii is the Wii. The only console it can compare to is the PS2.
Also just to say this.
If the Wii runs on 20w. HOLY CRAP.
The Powersupply puts off more heat a 20w light. And the Wii itself is like a heater. If you want efficency. Get 100 wii's. That would be a KILLER heater.
I actually think that is because the Wii's HORRIBLY built. The DVD drive goes click click click all the time. You can hear the DVD's in the drive spin... And I can hear the fans from 3 feet.
My Wii is louder than my PS3... When both are on a table away from anything.
The PS3 screams when it dosent get enough air. (and finally smokes)
The Wii just stops working from what I've read.
EDIT: 7.8 and 8 really isnt that bad... much better than most Wii games...
ps3 has 2.25+ mb of memory + 512 mb +XDR advantage =fast and more direct mapping + faster data unloading =====amazing water
