Video Games Which console's for you?

[bum-man]

the PS3 has SOO much untapped potential that it's not even funny.

I feel that we will be hearing this the entire generation with no results. Sounds exactly like last generation with the PS2 and the promised "Toy Story graphics."

Yeah just look at how good MS is doing with the 360. It's technically inferior to the PS3 and even uses the "dated" DVD-format but still manages to push out close to the same graphics as the PS3.

I've played motor storm at several occasions and when there is a lot of cars on the screen one can notice FPS lag(probably a 25-20fps decrease). It is really noticeable and IMO unacceptable for a console that expensive.

I hope you know that the "toy story" graphics has been beaten to hell and not yet has anyone found the direct link to this statement by Sony.

If you think that 360 has anything even against the PS3, I suggest you look at the gamplay vid of MGS4 and Killzone 2. As of right now every 360 game is a second generation game, yet 1st gen PS3 games are on par if not better than 360 games. Please explain that...

I would like to see that article where someone from Sony claimed "Toy Story" graphics. I remember hearing about this claim time and time again, but I never found the source.

In the mean time, I should point out that Microsoft also made the "Toy Story" claim. I refer to this quote:

"One of the basic premises of the Xbox is to put the power in the hands of the artist," Blackley said, which is why Xbox developers "are achieving a level of visual detail you really get in 'Toy Story.'"

Its funny how this claim never gained traction among the press.

It's funny how X-box fans always like to claim the "toy story graphics" as a shot at Sony but in the end they shoot themselves in the foot.

That is an awesome post Rengoku...you deserve mad karma! Unfortunately, I have already thanked you and can't do it twice. But to you my friend...

Τhe XBOX 360 is not inferior to PS3 in terms of harware. PS3's "cell" processor is indeed more powerful but the graphics card that the PS3 is using is a joke. So the two consoles are more or less even.

Also most of the PS3 games are first programmed for 360 and then transfered to the PS3 meaning that the graphics will be the same or even worse (due to the conversion procedure) that XBOX.

Actually Technically speaking the PS3 is in fact Superior. Even the RSX (gpu), which you think is a joke, is a badass. I don't think you know this but the RSX was designed by NVIDIA to specifically work in conjunction with the Cell BE. So in other words, it's not a traditional GPU and CPU setup, it's a totally different architecture. That is why some people complain that the PS3 is hard to work with. Of course its hard to work with, it's totally different design than a "console" which is basically a dumbed down computer.

As of right now there are no "OFFICIAL" specs on the RSX so you calling it a joke is just plain BS. I suggest you do some some research into RSX+Cell architecture and then tell me it's a joke. Try NeoGaf forums where the Devs themselves post and even most of them have said things along the lines of "it's not what it seems", "there is more than previously thought" to "we can't talk about what the RSX exactly is".
