I don't think that it will really do anything for the PS3, they'll use the same textures that fit onto a DVD9 for both versions. If developers are so keen to bring the PS3 version up to parity with the Xbox360, I doubt they will do anything that will makes the PS3 versions noticeably better. It goes both ways... ya?

PSH no.  The man said it himself.

Sorry Squill.  I buy all my multiplat shooter / FPS games on the 360.  This time however, PS3 has the clear advantage.  He will not compromise the quality.  You shouldn't be too concerned, don't you own a PS3?

 


FYI - I added more to the statement 2 posts down.

Tease.

If people can't see this happening much more often in the future, then they are blind! BD's are the future and most studios within the next year or so will be needing them heaps more.

One thing is for sure, the PS3 is positioned very well.



Playing and finishing games first>>>>>>>>>>Then talking!

Opinions are subjective and just like moods, can change.

TOP 12: Deus Ex, Shadow Man, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturn, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, Metroid Prime, Zelda (series), Uncharted (series), FF Tactics, Persona (series), Demons Souls, Vagrant Story.

MOST WANTED: Deus Ex: Human Revolution, The Last Guardian, ICO/Shadow OTC HD

after all it's the CGI that will look worse not the gameplay right?



blu-ray increases as neccesity and usefullness as months go by wheras DVD seems to outlived any usefullness it once had , Blu-Ray is indeed the future (and is very much the present).

Well, its id, so it has potential. Hopefully they learned from the mistakes of Doom 3, which wasn't a bad game by any means. Quake 4 could have been better too, but still a good game.



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

I haven't heard of this one until this thread. Maybe Mr. Carmack has gone public in an attempt to force Microsoft's hand on the multi-disc royalty issue.... Or, maybe he even went to Microsoft and he threatened to go nuclear. MS maybe called his bluff. Who knows. Business can be ugly...

 

Kn I think he wants the media to blow up so MS would be forced to allow him to put the game on more than 2 disks.Casue in this genre MS doesnot allow more than 2 disks unlike RPG.his new  engine is 20 GB alone(for this game and Doom 4)so he needs to do this once so that MS would not cause problems for doom 4 either in near future.

Forcing MS to do anything will be worth the price of admission. This clown Carmack is about to get own3d. News at 11.

 

No "+1" Even though this post deserves it. You took away the hot chick avatar! :(

 

Captain James T. Kirk ... how you gonna snub a brotha? BTW, your new avatar rocks.

Tease.

We have always had more than 1 disc for some games since Ps1. Disc changing is no big deal.

On the future front disc of any type, be it Blu ray or any other is extremely old tech now. Sd cards, Flash drives and the like are all limitless in space and are far more durable. Also there is way less load times as transfer rates are far better.

I would hope disc is not for the next generation as 30 gb Sd cards could easily be used in 3 years, or even small flash drives. This is hopefully where gaming will go.

I know Toshiba are looking at putting SD cards to the film industry for Hd films instead of Dics, as you could put it straight into the side of your HDTV(no need for a player) and watch the film that way. You would have smaller boxes to and unlimited space.



Don't know looks pretty cool but Motorstorm2 looks better. Just cannot get excited about the game.

Flash cards may be used in the near future for gaming because of their low seek times, but I don't think they will be used for movies (which don't need low seek time) because they are far more expensive than discs and will be for a long time. For example. It currently costs less than $0.10 to make and press a DVD. There is no way that a 4 GB flash card will be that cheap within the next decade. None.
