AC 2 will be another port, you just cant make it from ps3 then port to 360 its too hard.

 

No it's not.

Yes it is, if you truly want to use the ps3 and take advantage of its graphics you need to use the SPE's, the 360 doesnt have that.

On the other hand they take the 360 game and port it, just using ram and graphics card. That is why we have framerate problems.

The 360 version of Assassins Creed also has issues and freezing problems. Ubisoft have also confirmed that the patch is coming to fix the PS3 version.


Orange Box - EA port.... that says it all.

Madden08 - Dead horse, we all know the issues and every system other then the 360 (Including the Wii) suffered, not just PS3.


As for GT3 and Rockband, that is new but not totally unexpected.

I havn't heard anything about 360's freezing for the AC (well other then the usual RRoD). Last i heard, the white screen of death, which is being patched, is suppose to be with the 2.0 firmware for the PS3.

I played 35+ hours of Rock Band on my PS3 over the Thanksgiving weekend and I have only one thing to report:

the game is freaking awesome, screw Les Paul guitar, Rock Band's wireless guitar is way better and... NO LAG AT ALL!!!

PS: Anyway I feel sorry about anyone that purchased GHIII just to have an extra guitar. I'm glad I decided to pass on GHIII.

Optimistic predictions for 2008 (Feb 5 2008): Wii = 20M, PS3 = 14M, X360 = 9.5M

 I've only played the 360 version of Assassin's Creed and it froze on me twice during my first play-through of the game. It took a hard reset to get the system going again.



Someone mentioned the architecture of the PS3 to be the cause of the problem, and i have to frankly agree with this thesis. The PS3 must be a bitch to programm for if so many platform games are flawed compared to the xbox versions. i mean, the system isn't supposed to fight the devs during coding isn't it?

That might explain some of the bugs and performance problems but it doesn't explain everything. I think they just don't care about PS3 software sales as much as people think, especially in USA-centric games. The difference in the install base (360 vs PS3) is huge in USA.

It really seems to me that EA is in bed with MS....especially since they exchanged two of their high level employees...



@Epsilon72 This wouldn't suprise me at all.
