Most big games on PS3 are sub-HD/720p


No, I know of no first party PS3 game which renders below 720p.

Porting issues and issues with regard to obsolete legacy game engines were expected years before the PS3 launched.

Halo 3 is IMO an eyeopener, its low rendering resolution and lack of AA (advertised as penalty free by Microsoft in the past) shows the console's sweetspot is actually below HD (implementing good HDR combined with AA). Bungie isn't incompetent, nor do they lack resources, nor did they have to deal with porting issues.

Also going 1080p only really makes sense if the assets are of good enough quality. Uncharted 2 shows the PS3 can stream a huge amount of high quality textures without pop-in issues, probably they can take this even further with Uncharted 3 amongst other optimisations they highlighted.

A few years ago I talked about the Cell's good potential of handling procedural synthesized textures, therefore I have been following WarDevil's progress for quite some time.

I don't see the point in this reply. I said /720p aswell which all the big first party games run at. Except for GT5 when it releases in march (1080P)

Ps3 does have BIG third party games like MW and MW2 which run at sub HD. I can't remember if GTA 4 does.

you beat me to it...


HOLY SHIT... I just read the article. They are able to render visuals at true 1080p at an unbroken 60fps using just one core of the Xbox 360... The texture resolutions are decent also. They are working on implementing 1024 by 1024 res textures for every 4 square meters of gameworld and they already have 2048x2048 res textures for character face's, torso's and limbs. (for an comparison in Fallout 3 everything from the neckdown used just one 1024x1024 texture)

They also rendered something on the original Xbox and then used a debug to split the camera into two so it was rendering twice as much. (I got confused at this point lol) 

I can't be botherd typing the entire thing up for you all to see. I can't scan it either. There is 5 pages on info.

I MAY type it later but in my own thread considering this is in the Sony section when it clearly isn't exclusive.


I typed it up.... http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=88062

I hate myself :)
