Not only that, but leo-j is simultaneously right and wrong as he has contradicted himself. A little earlier he was saying Star Wars:TFU looked horrible on the PS3.

Never understimate the power of the dark fanboy side

Yeah, I don't know who actually thought the PS3 games looked better. I actually think the PS3 ones were a little washed out, and the 360 details were crisper.

Which brings me to my next question... why the hell can developers not take advantage of the superior PS3 graphics processor? I mean, I know it takes awhile to figure out a new system and all, but geez, it's been 2 years already.

What superior graphics processor?

The GPUs in both systems are quite standard and well understood. The only thing in the PS3 which may not be well tapped by many developers is the Cell.

It's hard to blame multi-plat developers for not tapping the Cell when even 1st-party ones are not using it the way it was originally intended to. For example, KZ2 appears to be running most of the engine on the PPE and using the SPEs for graphical stuff only.

I've always been more impressed with NVIDIA graphics cards, but the ATI created for the 360 might just dispell the myth that NVIDIA is king of the roost.  Hands down, it appears to be "sharper" really.  I'm actually a little shocked by it, because (if you'll read all of my posts) I'm usually the one touting the PS3 as the superior piece of hardware.

OK, now I'm just confused. Are you retracting your "superior PS3 graphics processor" remark?

Or your crazy.... hey theres always the next round where the ps3 might win (or not).

I originally intended to put the comment in quotations, as in a sarcastic comment about I always say.

But in the past, I generally have touted the hardware of the PS3 (graphics card and all) as superior upon spec inspection.  In other words, I was kind of mocking myself for always stating that it's superior.  Make sense?

Oh, now it makes sense :)

I know what you mean... I have both systems, and the biggest difference for me is the controller.  I have a serious love affair with the sixaxis controller...

I think at the end of the day, both systems have their nods here and there, but mostly the differences are small at best.

But, although my mind has been changed on the graphics card, I do think that the PS3 still wins in most other areas.

As most people have read (on what I've wrote in this forum) I just think that XBOX Live is just so friggin' awesome that it keeps me an XBOX lover.  It doesn't take away any of my affection from the PS3, it just means that I log more time on my 360 because of it's online service.
