I see that stupidity has reached a new low here on VGChartz...

yup... my stupidometer says that it happened 1 ms after your post. Coincidence... i think not.

I think he meant you.... and I think I agree with him.

How would this conversation between MS and Developer go...?

MS: hey we need you to make the PS3 version worse than the 360 one, can you do that?

Developer: sorry no… but before the developer finishes his sentence MS throws a bag of money on him.

Developer: of course we can ;)

It's threads like this that make me wonder how any one can debate who has the worse fanboys.

I'm sorry but this is just dumb, seriously, just think about what you are asking? How would that arrangement work? The differences we are talking about are minor, could Microsoft refuse to pay if the Playstation 3 version wasn't obviously worse? How much would they pay and why on earth wouldn't they just pay for exclusivity? The list of questions this statement begs just goes on an on.

MS just paid me to play their games...

Seriously though. Uncharted and MGS4 look hardly better than RE5 and Gears 2 on the 360. MGS4...that game has no draw distance what so ever. Its easy to have high detailed models and high res textures when you have draw distance of 100 feet. Try doing GTA4 draw distance with MGS4 engine and watch the PS3 blow up.

Killzone 2 I havent seen yet... But it better look like a golden turd in a sea of other brown turds with the amount of hype Sony fans are giving to its graphics.

Exclusives such as MGS4, KZ2 and Uncharted have shown that the ps3 is, currently, the most powerful console. However, multiplats, in the past, have had better 360 versions. Therefore, with the 360 lacking 1st party games as an incentive to buy the console, is it possible that MS is paying devs to downgrade ps3 versions?

No. 1000 times no. Even asking that question is offensive in some way.
