How old is that article?

He mentions Resitance Fall of Man, not Resistance 2, no Killzone 2, no Motorstorm 2, No Uncharted...

My guess it is from early 2007.

EDIT:

That (Jason Booth) article was posted on Neogaf in October of 2007, and has since been removed from Jason Booth's own website. Most likely out of shame and embarrassment.

MikeB said: @ Ascended_Saiyan3 That is very true. Everyone should take a look at the chart below. Where you see white spaces is room for improvement. This is for Killzone 2, BTW. Those white spots is spare SPU time which could be dedicated to running new SPU systems without further optimization. However there are also endless oppertunities to further optimize the existing SPU/PPU systems already up and running. That's one of the reasons why leading PS3 developers such as Insomniac, Naught Dog, SCE Studios Santa Monica and Guerilla Games suggest not to optimize too much early on, it's probably better to start significantly optimizing existing code when you start to run out of performance resources. They suggest to move as many as possible functions from PPU (and GPU) towards the SPUs first (ideally near everything, dev time permitting taking into account for when your game is set to be released) and foremost optimize for code structure, low level code optimizations (hard work!) can be done in the future.

That's exactly right! I knew this from the GDC 2009 developer slides. I have access to a lot of them (from MS, Sony, and 3rd party devs). I've gone over those slides a couple of times. The funny thing is that in one of MS audio presentations they were suggesting MIDI for audio files! Meanwhile, Sony's audio presentation was looking at truly next-gen audio techniques to implement in future games. If anyone wants those PDFs, PM me and I'll send the links to you.

Sounds legit.

The PS3 just got its pants pulled down, on stage, at the prom.

Sony PR has fooled us for 3 years, but now this comes to light, disproving most of it.

I'll never buy a PS3.

"I read various game forums from time to time, and often see gamers complaining about 'lazy ports' to the PS3. They often mention how the PS3 is the most powerful game console and blame developers working on the console for doing a bad job. Sony has all of these people duped by impressive marketing spin... ports to the PS3 will never be as good as their 360 counter parts, and ...most PS3 exclusives will likely continue to suck," he says.   Lol his games are likely to continue to suck.   Anyways his full of bullshit. Look at it's exclusives. Hes completely forgetting the processor because it's usually not used in graphical applications. And i also think in general that's the biggest issue. Sony is one of the few companies that uses the cell for everything, while a lot of developers just try to dump data over in a regular manner.   This is what santa monica is doing with God of War 3. http://www.tilander.org/aurora/comp/gdc2009_Tilander_Filippov_SPU.pdf

"PS3 EXCLUSIVE WILL CONTINUE TO SUCK"

LMAO....OMG ahahahahahha.....BEST shit I've every heard since the "crytek are a bunch of liers" comment from 360 fanboys when they said that ps3 version will run better than 360.

Since when is rock band or guitar hero known for the graphics

So basically this blog post came from October 2007*, back at the beginning of this console generation, but everyone is having too much fun flaming their hated enemies to care, right?







* This is what several people have said so far in this thread, anyway. Weird how those posts never seem to get a response...

Problem for the PS3 is the man in the street doesnt appreciate such things as draw distance and objects on screen.

Maybe thats why the PS3 is in third. It only sells to tech nuts who can appreciate what it can do.

B.S. Guitar Hero developer? LMAO!

so let me get this straight, a Guitar Hero and Rock Band developer is claiming that the PS3 is not more powerful than the 360.

I've just got to say that neither Guitar Hero or Rock Band push either the PS3 or 360 to their max...so really his claims are useless, after all it's not like  rock band or guitar hero push the 360 or PS3 much seeing as they are really simple games that are easily done on the PS2, and even DS.

Now if it was a developer like the guys at ubi whom are working hard on Assassins creed 2 said it, then yeah I'd be more inclined to take his word as gospel, seeing as AC pushes both graphics, physics, and many other things to their limit on both the PS3 or 360.

So, we should all disregard this douche bag, and quit all this nonsense babbling till someone substantial makes such a claim, then this rivalry can continue in peace....tell then this thread should be dormant.
