the 360 is a beast son. i can't wait to see what gears 3 is gonna look like.

Agree. There already is an abundance of PS3 FTW posters trolling the thread. Even when it has nothing to do with PS3 vs 360. Hell I even compliment Sony in the OP highly. Please for gods sake Sony fans, this thread is about the 360 and 360 only. Leave it for us to have our own calm articles. Jesus Christ.

I used Forza 3 as an example because it's a game that really has upped over it's previous same gen iteration. There are other examples to like Conviction over Double Agent etc. Stop with the trolling posts. Damn some people on the net.

LOL Selnor, youre the only one bringing up the PS3.

I have always done it. Microsoft have so much money, so I just use the $.

Dont be rediculous. The only people in here trolling are Sony supporters. So yeah it's obvious. Just leave the thread please if you dont like it. I have reported the trolls already.

Splinter Cell:Conviction looks like Uncharted (or better) in my opinion.

Please try and only use other 360 games as a comparison. Although you may mean this innocently, PS3 fans will be on this post in a shot. I dont want this thread to be about PS3 vs 360 for the 1 millionth time. It's sad I know, but it's the reality.

Q: Why do people always use racing games as an example for "graphics prowess"?

A: What other genre can you have an unskinned, basically static mesh, with the absolute highest texture resolution possible, take up most of a screenshot?

If there's a genre where the 360 should shine, its racing.  Where else can you have minimal game logic and game data, with maximum textures, to utilize the unified memory architecture?  It would be a serious embarassment if Forza 3 didn't look a bunch better than GT5, for that reason... it should have like 1.5x the texture memory.
