Forums - Gaming - Struggle for equality, development still disfavouring the PS3? (Fracture)

So the ID guy who said this, has stated multiple times that he was misquoted...hadn't caught that news yet?

Regardless, it does suck that there is a difference.  The mis-steps this generation for MS are well documented (no standard Hard Drive, RROD), but the Sony errors (too hard to program for, rumble/achievements implemented late) are still showing up as well.  Makes you wonder what the space would look like if those mistakes had not been made by either company....even more interesting is how both Sony and MS use software to evolve the 360/PS3.  I think there will be fodder for these boards for years to come!

How are you assuming that its an unequal experience based upon that small difference in max resolution? Have you played both the versions? Have you felt any significant difference in playability? This thread is a big FAIL

 

 

Assuming? ASSUMING!! Holy %&^*&%*( How the hell do you not realize that this is serious??!?! Pixels are the LIFES BLOOD of games. How would you feel if you had 19% of your blood removed?! Damnit, in case you don't get it... The clue is that you wouldn't feel good AT ALL. Check out THIS link from wikipedia about blood loss if you're still confused.

 

 

 



Tease.

I think we had a similar discussion before regarding GTA4 which also had a lower resolution for the PS3 then the X360. However this difference while not discernible to the naked eye had no impact at all to the actual gameplay and playability of the game between the systems. In fact the PS3 version, if I remember correctly, got slightly higher review scores then the X360 one.

I am just saying that these threads are pointless if you haven't actually played them on both systems, your silly attempt at sarcasm notwithstanding.

Dude! You're completely missing the point. Im not calling the PS3 version inferior. Im trying to make a discussion about why such differences still happen in 2008. Up until now its actually been a pretty reasonable thread, you know technical stuff not semantics until you came in here without even reading it. To make up for being serious im gonna post a funny pic.

 

 



Tease.

You do realise its a catch 22 right? If they make it PS3 exclusive they don't have the budget to make the extra content to really take advantage of BR due to lower sales and if they make it multi-platform they don't have the space but they have the budget.

No Squill im talking about Multiplat only. This is what gamers should do ( it's never gonna happen tho) ; Gamers should boycott the game if it's not gonna come out Reasonable Equal (Madden 08). 360 owners should have boycotted it aswell as PS3 owners . Just as I believe PS3 owners should boycott Rage along with 360 owners. (This is all over Microsoft charging extra for Multible discs). Personally, this stays the same I hope the game fail on both consoles (This will get the Message thro to Developer and Microsoft)

How exactly is that reasonable for Xbox 360 owners to have to juggle 3-4 disks and unlike JRPGs they will have to change them if they want to go to different areas as the space is being used for textures and not just one time CGI cut-scenes?

Well That's Microsoft's problem, but they brought a solution to Table did they Not? The optional install update?

Not really, its their job as console maker to advocate for their users. The optional install doesn't help Arcade/20gb users who are the great majority of current users. So they are doing the right thing by their own users which is the most important thing, Sony can take care of there own. If it impacts PS3 users? So be it.

Lazy developers strike again. Too lazy to AT LEAST make the games on par with each other.

I think for the First time ever I completely agree with Squilliam....

 

That.

And I'd also like to add this:

Fracture seems like nothing special...
