the xb 360 can compete with the ps3 on graphics for at least another 2 years or so, the ps3 isnt that much more powerfull than the xb 360. the best looking game this gen is gears of war, uncharted is 2nd and ut3 is 3rd, 4th is mgs4. if bungie or any great fps dev wanted too they could make a game that looks as good as kz2 on the xb360.

 

You say this with no proof and no, Uncharted is the best looking game this generation, it blows everything else released away.

 

Oh okay and where is your proof ??? It's your opinion and I don't think, that you ever have played a game on Xbox 360

 

@ Skeeuk

yeah go and download new skins and maps. I prefer playing with my friends via splitscreen (no offense)

Have Fun !

so what
?
oblivion looked way better on the ps3.
and thats because it came later and they had more time to develop it.

and again i never seen a on the xbox360 looking as good as metal gear solid 4 (especially the act5 textures are near perfect), or uncharted (even if people say its just more colorful, water, textures, and palm leaf shaders are way over what the xbox360 can archive)

game runs virtually flawless on PS3 from what I can tell, and the mods allow you to speed it up to PC speeds. You can also use keyboard/mouse. Can the 360 version do either of those?

yea it is more than likely due to longer development time, but when a game comes out later on PS3 and it's better many people say they are using the PS3's power.

 

yep, right, when it comes later  to the 360 they always say that's it's because they had more time to develop it. They've been saying that for 2 years now, but can anoyone explain to me what the hell happened to the ps3 version of lost planet?.

Its really hard to take Eurogamer seriously.

 

 aren't they the ones that said without MS hardcore gaming would be dead?

Yeah read my above post.

That was EDGE magazine

 

 

No, but they were just about the only ones that thought GTA IV looked better on the 360 than the PS3.  Just go check out their reviews and its pretty clear which console they favor.

Which my response was clearly ignored because I shoved your assertion back at you with Epic's history of releasing Mac based versions of their games on PowerPC CPUs.


But what you said was "the 360 is basically a PC on the inside" which is false for many reasons which have been pointed out. Macs have nothing to do with the conversation...

Anyway, that horse has been beaten to death.

 

 

 Mac is a PC. 360 = PC. 360 CPU = updated Mac CPU. UT = Mac and PC franchise. So Epic = experienced with PowerPC CPUs.

Well, you could argue that the Cell processor is just an updated Mac CPU ...

The truth is that developing for any console is quite a bit different than developing for the PC, and after 3 years of development you should be getting performance similar to what you will ever achieve; at this point in time, most of the improvement in graphics will come from artists being able to produce better looking models and textures with using less polygons and pixels.

 

here is the problem when saying the Cell is an upgraded PPC like the Xenon.

The Cell is designed to be a GPCPU, similar to what Intel is releasing at the end of 2009. Each SPE runs similar to a stream processor versus a symmetric core. The main PPE core is based on the PPC core but overall the rest of the chip is not.

The Xenon is just a PPC with three PPC cores. Its like comparing a Core 2 Duo and a Core 2 Quad. Whats the difference? Basically nothing but to more symmetric cores.

Epic having experience coding a PPC versus a GPCPU thanks to past Mac game development meaning they had a leg up with coding for it.

 

Your comparison stinks, a Core2Quad is a Core2Duo with twice the CPU cores, the CELL is the same processor as found in the 360 with 2 of its three cores removed and replaces with the SPE`s.

Its like a Core2solo with a bunch of DSP`s.

I love how people (PS3 fanboys) constantly give Eurogamer shit simply because they prove time and time again the 360 has it up over on the PS3. They're only one of the most respected gaming sites on the internet with a constant line of integrity and yet they're so full of shit?

The fact that the 360 is technically trumping the 'more powerful' PS3 is common knowledge, why aren't you ready to accept that?

I've said it before and I'll keep on saying it until I'm proven wrong, but in the end when it all comes down to simple real world gaming, the 360 is more powerful than the PS3.

err what?

More Cross-Platform games are starting to look better on the PS3. (those released at the same time)

Generally I've found PS3 Exclusives, on average, to be more technically and graphically impressive then XBox 360 exclusives

In this case of UT3, it came out over 7 months later and has clearly been optimized and enchanced for the 360.

If (and I'm pretty sure it will) Bioshock is more technically impressive on the PS3, what then?

Yet when Oblivion was released a year later it proved that the PS3 was superior(despite shivering isles expansion on 360 looking exactly alike)?

And if Bioshock DOESNT look better there is something horribly wrong, the engine used for the game on 360 and PC was a hybrid of UE2 and UE3 because UE3 was simply not finished yet when they started the game. The PS3 version of UE3 has been finished and used in games for a while now so if it doesnt look spectacularly better then Bioshock on 360 there is something horribly wrong.
