360 is no more powerful than the Dreamcast confirmed. Apples to oranges, right?



Vertigo-X on 24 May 2009

No, the PS3 is more powerful. The problem is that the difference in the games isn't so large.

Nintendo was kinda correct in saying that graphics have reached a plateau; though there's a pretty big difference between Wii and PS3/360 games. However, the difference between the games on PS3 and 360 won't be very significant. You can say that Uncharted 2 and God of War 3 both look better than anything the 360 can produce, but will any of that really matter in the end?

Both systems will produce some good looking games that only enthusiasts will be able to nitpick to death. The difference, again, isn't so great and is probably comparable to the PS2-Xbox gap.

Interesting!! Can we not compare, Killzone 2 to Halo 3, technically? You say the art styles are different, but the technology behind them is also different. So couldn't it be that Killzone 2 is technically superior.

The problem is that Killzone has no coop or split screen......so add the 5 years of dev and you got a fanboy dream

why does every game need to have co-op?

They don't, it can be a nice addition. Coming from PC gaming, as good as no games have co-op campaigns.

The awesome God of War 2 did not have co-op, neither did Resident Evil 4 or for example Metal Gear Solid 1/2/3/4. Often 360 fans use this argument to dismiss PS3 games which don't have co-op, but 360 "Game of the Year" games like Oblivion and Bioshock did not have co-op as well. Looking forward to see how co-op is implemented in Uncharted 2 though.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."

PS3 vs 360 sales

Every game does not need to have Coop..An FPS without coop is free to have a higher polygon count and steadier framerate.....

Killzone 2 was not in development since Feb 2004, just so you know. This is the problem when people let personal preference interfere with reality, it too often causes major errors to circulate.

The tech demo was shown in may 2005...How long would you say that it took them to make the tech demo....
