irony is ps3 exclusive does look better than xbox360 ones. making power comparison pointless, power difference have been known for a while just u can't expect a rushed port to look the same as the main version.

ff13 was first develop for the ps3 in mind, and u seen what happen to the 360 version.


no no, you're missing the point. I am not arguing that PS3 is less powerful, we all know it isn't...the argument is ease of development.

Naughty dog can spend 20 million and 18 months on the PS3 version of Uncharted as there isn't a 360/PC version to worry about. But it the real world of budget and time deadlines, multiplatform development goes a long way. 2K needs to spend 20 million to make MAfia 2 and then on top they have to figure out how to port it to 3 platforms, which can be costly as well.

How else do you explain 360 being out a year sooner, having inferior hardware and having more better looking multiplats?

Both are already outdated... 360 has 5 years. Still great visuals. PS2 outdated 7 years ago stills rocking !

they are not more advanced version, they just have more polish since it was easier before to port it over, but now engines like unreal 3 and cry engine3 (which actually heard it runs better on the ps3 are out) are matured to avoid that problem.

it not about the hardware but mainly ps3 was released later, ports tend to be rushed.

that was the reason ff13 360 wasnt as good as the ps3 version, even they were made on the  same engine which was made to be multiplatform engine. 360 version was rushed, compressed and lower resolution and having lower FPS.

it doesnt matter ps3 its more powerful it people dont take the time to use it.

if u go for exclusives from graphical archivement its clear ps3 it's ahead.



After seeing Gears of War 3 i dont see Ps3 ahead anymore but hey Uncharted 3 may change that once again.

Uncharted 1 > Gears of War

Gears of War 2 > Uncharted 1

Uncharted 2 > Gears of war 2

Things are going that way and UC is the most powerfull PS3 Game in graphics and GoW for Xbox.



^i will wait until it's release to comment about that, especially since ps3 killzone 3 its as great or better uc3 and it have 3d.

Ps3 is touted as more powerful, and disolitude comes in and spins it as " PS3 costs more to develop for so it doesn't matter" , nobody cares about DEV cost, that isn't that the thread is about..

 

but of course lets spin this so that the 360 looks like it's ahead of the curve tech wise, and the ps3 is behind.

And then LeoJ comes in and thinks this is a seriouz thread and decides to post a summary report of what "really" went down...

who gives a shit? They're both outdated hardware and both can produce amazing visuals still. It's only more ammo for fanboy drivel.



i'd say but it's already been said as you can tell

Who cares.  It's worth the developers' efforts to support the PS3 which is what really matters.  And I agree by and large with everyone else that these comparisons do not matter along with your feeble attempt to downplay a site giving props to the PS3 over the 360.
