CPU =/ Graphics,The 360 one has better graphics imo but im sure the PS3 one can handle more physics and better AI.

The Cell is a CPU/GPU.  4 SPEs used for rendering effectively DOUBLES the graphics capability.  I'm sure you've seen that here, at least, a few times.  That would still leave 3 processors (2 SPEs and the PPE) for physics, AI, game logic, etc.  Of course, Cryengine 3 isn't using the SPEs in such a manner.  And, no, the X360 version of this demo does NOT have better graphics.

LOL @ the 360 fanboys.

Why cant you just accept the PS3 version looks better.
Break the habit and actually say something good about the PS3.
Lighting on the PS3 version makes the 360 one look pathetic.
Everything looks better on the PS3 version imo.

Cell is finally here.

Since im the only 360 owner here i suppose your talking to me,The 360 camera is closer therefore textures appear to be worse,how ever i will say the 360 version looks SUB hd.

Even I feel Lightning will look hotter in PS3's FF13 than in 360's one!

slightly doesnt mean shit, basicly the pictures to me are too close too call. either way it seems that this engine will make very good looking games on both systems :)

I see a difference.
And the PS3 one is brighter with more lighting.
But I don't I don't really see how one can be "better"
They're just different.

@ Garnett: To point out, in 06' the mantra was that the SPEs would be terrible at AI "because they aren't built for that".  Now it's clear that that's not true, obviously.

Anyway, these screens look great.  360 has usually had the edge in up-close textures in limited amounts, a la Gears, while PS3 has the edge in a number of other areas.

 

???

 

Also it looks like the 360 version is SUB HD,Looks like 540p!

 

Just venting, as during '06 I had to endure FUD about PS3 not being able to do AI because, dontcha know, SPE's can't do branching logic.

Yeah, but they're so overpowered that even if they're not optimally efficient at it, shit flies.

Take that, MS-hired online propagandists back in '06!

And, now, some are saying the SPEs are better at AI than when run on other processors (when proper branch hints or branch elimination is implemented).

As far as textures in Gears go, they focused most of those textures budget on the characters and not everywhere.  To date, Uncharted has the most high rez textures throughout a game.
