Can you see the trend, the xbox couldn't keep with the resolution and details of the pc games (Even with ports of this two games, HL and Doom 3, the ports lack of the same quality shadder effects, had lower poly count and low res textures)... the same goes for the PS3 and the 360, right now they have troubles just to keep up with the PC games at decent resolution (Call of duty 4)... we are goping to see more "great graphics" games, but most of them are going to sacrifice huge and detailed enviroments (Like Crysis) in order to keep a decent framerate and a hd resolution (Like 720 or maybe 1080)... like Killzone 2, great graphics, but is going to run a 720 @ 30 fps... and killzone falls behind Crysis...


I think you misunderstood. Yes, in 5 years the PC will blow away what the PS3 can do, but in 5 years the PS3 will blow away what the PC did 5 years before it. (meaning today).

If we had this conversion in 2001 with respect to PC gaming and the PS2, we probably would we talking about Return to Castle Wolfensteine. In 2001, that game had the best graphics ever for a FPS, and no one would have thought a PS2 game could compete with those visuals. 5 years later, along comes a game called Black, that looks a lot better then RtCW.

I agree that what the PC was doing when Black came out blew Black out of the water, but the exact same pice of hardware that people thought could never surpass RtCW did just that.

I think the same thing will happen here. If 5 years the PC will be blowing the PS3 out of the water, but what the PS3 will be producing will have surpassed Crysis.

 

No, it won't. Crysis has far surpassed PS3's limits, and you will never see a game at Crysis level on PS3 or any other console this gen.

If a Quadcore with 4gb RAM and 2x 8800GTX Sli can't run Crysis smoothly on max settings, then no way in hell PS3 will ever max it.

Infact, I remember a Crysis developer say that the PS3 would only be able to run Crysis with settings between Medium and High (at 720p and 30fps). Nowhere near the Very High settings.
