I'm just saying there have been people who are making alot of anti mgs4 threads or commenting on gfx issues, storyline issues, frame issues etc. I guess if people hold a game in high regard there will be those who hate the games even if they haven't tried it. No game is perfect - period!

 

 Since when did anyone say that the framerate was bad??

And no game is perfect period, like you said.

Besides this, why don't you set aside your emotional attachment to the game and look at it rationally?



Tease.

(Shakes head...)

Do people really get some kind of value out of these dissections of games? I don't care if Bioshock has widescreen problems, or Ninja Gaiden 2, Halo 3, __insert game here___ has a lower resolution than "HD" as long as the game plays well. This shit has just gotten completely out of hand...



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

OOOOO T3H C3LL T3H C333333333333333333333333LLL!!!!!!1111

Sorry, couldn't resist.

It'll run smoother on the 360.

How do you know this? Are you aware of some 360 version in development that we all must have missed?

I am not but honestly would anyone be surprised if a year by now we had a 360 version?

Chances are though if there ever were one it would actually perform better on the 360 than the PS3, even such a high profile PS3 title as MGS4.

Settle down people! Seriously, since this is a game thats used to talk up the PS3's graphics capabilities its good to have more of the facts rather than biased opinions.

THE FRAME RATE ISN'T BAD.

Its quite acceptable for the genre and style of game. If it wasn't we'd be hearing a LOT more about it as some people would be just as keen to attack this game as others are to defend it.

 

But disolitude says that this frame rate report is proof that MGS4's shit stinks.  He's gross, I don't really even know what that means.

Consider this a warning.

The 360 and PS3 are actually very close in power. Both just have completely different architectures. The only games I'm aware of that would make someone think that are the ones ported from the 360 to the PS3. Games developed side by side for both tend to run very similarly. Example: DMC4. It might perform better in some areas of the 360, but worse in others. The PS3 and 360 have different advantages and disadvantages to each other.

Well, if it does drop below 30 FPS, i haven't noticed it. I also don't really care, as almost every other part in the graphical department of the game more than makes up for it.

 "LOL. Thanks for this. While this doesn't take anything away form the game and how good it is...there are lots of people on the site that pretend MGS4 shit dont stink. "

Sorry, not everyone is born with airfresheners in their butt.

@Montana - Thanks!

This has been quite civilized. Woot!

Hmm I wonder if it's GPU limited or ram limited, I doubt its CPU limited for obvious reasons... I'd swing towards GPU because of the fact that particle effects really slow the system down.
