unreal 3 run at same framerate but looks better on 360, better texture quality and better colors.. i made the comparision in a thoshiba hd 56... hdmi...

I had my doubts but I went to house of a fellow worker who has both versions and we compared them...

i dont need to see video comaparisions or read biased opinions..

"unequivocal across the board that the 360 is the better platform to develop for".


I think its not very surprising that PC game developers prefer the 360 for development. Since it has Direct3D the same tools etc. pp. So its worth to mention if he says something nice about the PS3.

Besides better platform to develop for != better graphical capabilities.

Did you watch the video Kryos, or are you just responding to that single quote?

"on almost anything on the strictly graphical side in terms of pushing vertexes and triangles on there, the 360's hardware is superior to the PS3's RSX"

He gives an example that the PS3's RSX might be faster, but only on less graphically intensive games. Anyway, watch the video for yourself, but it's interesting you choose to discount my points and not the one Daxter210 made on the previous page that also quoted Carmack. ;)

I can't believe that no one has pointed out the obvious: Why would 2K spend the time, effort and money to redo the game with better textures?

As far as I can tell there would be no motivation to do so when you essentially have some easy cash from an easy port. If you want to retexture everything then that would raise the costs significantly, and even then I doubt you could get away with anything more than marginally better textures thanks to RAM and fillrate limits.

I wouldn't be surprised if the PS3 version has better texture filtering, which the IGN guys could have mistaken for higher resolution textures. But I still wouldn't put any stock into what they say, IGN is a joke of a site.

Everyone knows this. But the CELL+RSX is faster graphically then the XENON+XENOS.

Not for once.

  • Dirt
  • Burn out Paradise
  • GTA4
  • Oblivion
  • DMC4 (slightly)
  • CoD4 (practically nothing, but a very slight amount)

And probably something I am missing.
