Opinions anyone?

PS3 already maxed out during third year with UnCharted 2?

Obviously

On topic, I can't wait, I want Uncharted 2 NOW!

These articles are terribly misleading. Those percentages we see all the time (30% Uncharted, 60% KZ2 etc) only refer to the percentage of CPU cycles which are being used. The PS3 is much more than the CPU, it has RAM, GPU, etc. However, they don't publish the figures on how much the GPU is being used for example (it's very likely more of a bottleneck than the Cell).

If they said "Uncharted to use 100% of the Cell's power", it would be much more correct.

I hate to say it, but i agree 100% NJ5, but i only did the ol' copy and paste thing so yeah...

Thats what the title should have been but meh, imo i disagree uncharted will take 100% of the PS3's power, maybe the Cell yes but not overall. +2

Thats it then, after uncharted 2 its time to sell the PS3 as it is not going to get any better . Epic said last month the 360 had hit 100% and all the Sony fanboys said it had nothing left. Atleast it took 3 years to max out, and the PS3 max'ed out in just over 2 years. Looks like this is the end of the PS3 then

If uncharted 2 runs in 1080p, i will bust a nut in my pants and run into a wall. and post a naked pic of myself for vgchartz, hopefully nobody quotes me lol

Zomg..
Awesome.

Consider yourself Quoted! :P

That would be interesting, they would need to add in a lot of additional systems.

However it won't max out the PS3, like when it was claimed for Gears of War for the 360. There are endless opportunities for optimisations, much more so than was the case for the 360.
