By contrast, all of Rage's content will fit onto just one of the high-capacity Blu-Ray discs used by the PlayStation 3. However, Carmack shut down many Sony loyalists' blooming braggadocio by saying that while the Blu-Ray disc is clearly his preferred medium, the 360 is a superior piece of hardware for developers.

Guess Carmack has had a lot to say today.

In other news, Gamespot is bias!!!

What a lot of people (read: ps3fannoobs) don't know is that the 360 has a superior GPU.
Therefore the 360 this generation will be one step ahead of the ps3 graphics wise.

I could post the GPU numbers but that could cause ps3 gamers go depressive.

So, what he's really saying is that it's easier to make games on the 360, it just has a whole mess of shortcommings and encourages developers to release sub-par versions of their games? Really, don't tell me that the 360 is the better machine, Mr. Carmack, while telling me at the same time that your games will not be superior on that machine.

Textures are just one aspect, you have lighting - shaders - AA - Aniso filtering - frame rates - resolution - shadows.

A clear advantage on any one of those is possible for the Xbox360, which would certainly make the texture resolution issue moot at least. Many multiplatform games show a clear advantage for some of these different aspects favouring the Xbox360.

only because of lead developing on 360 then porting to ps3, with many times lazy ports.

...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

ha.

Thats why it took Naught Dog or Insomniacs only 1 year after PS3 release to surpass anything on 360 graphicly with Uncharted and Ratchet.

Reality show PS3 has superior graphics, nothing 360 has coming comes even close to Kllzone2
