"The only real advantage the ps3 has is the extra storage space"

"On the graphical side.. the 360 hardware is superior"

He also says the Xbox360 has more memory available to use for development apart from the extra 10MB edram of the 360, because Sony's system uses more memory in non-gaming tasks. Is he wrong? or is the ps3 really simply just the weaker hardware?

I don't agree nor do i disagree with Carmack but that made me laugh, please tell me did Kojima invent a genre?

EDIT: And for all you who are too lazy to read the first pages of this topic, no, he didn't invent the stealth genre

"Rage will almost certainly look and run better on the PlayStation 3" i guess you missed that part of the article. and when he says 360 has better hardware. he means only to developers because its easier to develop for. but the Ps3 is obviously a more powerful machine. and btw his criticism is soo 2006 , developers are very dluent with the PS3 hardware now

Pretty funny that Carmack says Rage will look and play better on the ps3 and its more future proof.

It is well documented that Carmack has been an outspoken person against the ps3.. but it does seem he is starting to come around.

Yeah in fact Kojima did create a genre. It's called stealth action. I think everyone knows that Sony's archetecture has always been tough to use but once through and it's all good. If he made another game I sure he'd still complain but not as much.

Well Kojima did invent the stealth action genre back in the 80's and again in 3D in the 90's. Before MGS games were all about shooting and MGS was the 1st game where it was about avoiding confrontation. Seriously I understand the PS3 is diffcult but the way this guy (Carmack) is talking is like he only worked on the PS3 once and couldn't get the hang of it so gave up, some programmer huh. PS2 was difficult and PS3 is easier then PS2 in the same time frame. Developers got the hang of PS2 and the same is happening with the PS3. The more you develope for the PS3 the easier it gets and you learn to get the best out of the Cell Processor. Carmack is just a big cry baby, I don't care how much experienced he is, if he was that experienced surely he would be able to crack the PS3 like soooo many other developpers are doing.

I guess you didn't even click the link he says and I quote again " On the graphical side.. the 360 hardware is superior", no two ways about it, he says it at around 3:26 in the interview. He also says thatthe DVD is the only limiting factor on why ps3 version might look better, but that the 360 is the more powerful platform. Do at least check the links before posting.

its so sad you have trouble understanding the english language. let me sum up what he is saying, PS3 is more powerful but harder to develop for , 360 is easier to develop for but lacks storage you get it now

I'm just struggling to agree, to be fair. He's obviously heavily biased to PC based devlopment, so he's inherently going to disagree with new, and different architectures. It's not unheard of for people to systematically denounce something as trash, because it's difficult to work with.

Anyone who actually believes the PS3 is trash in graphics capabilities, really needs to look at what the PS3 has done, and continues to do in that department. Also, Multiplatforms as of late, seem to be hitting it off really well with the PS3, so again, I'm failing to see either systems superiority.

Oh and btw Carmack didn't "invent the FPS genre" like you claimed

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_shooter#Origins

As you can see there where other FPS games out there before Wolfenstein 3D and Doom.

Watch the interview, it seems it's you who doesn't understand english. He clearly, very clearly, says the 360 has better graphics capabilities and is the better hardware. He also mentions how the ps3 is limited in memory and its GPUis a toned down PC chip with half the bandwidth.

Really??? that's your opinion, even so, you can't prove Uncharted is more technical extensive than Gears of War or most other games for that matter. But I guess Carmack could be wrong, maybe he hasn't seen Uncharted.

Yeah he's a developer who never made a single game on ps3 before.

I mean come onnn, you cant look at mgs4 and uncharted and say it's that bad...

Carmack is just a big cry baby, I don't care how much experienced he is, if he was that experienced surely he would be able to crack the PS3 like soooo many other developpers are doing.

Yeah in fact Kojima did create a genre. It's called stealth action. I think everyone knows that Sony's archetecture has always been tough to use but once through and it's all good. If he made another game I sure he'd still complain but not as much.

whackedjob213

first of all, that's not a genre, its sub-genre

secondly he didn't create it sega did

005

Beyond castle wolfenstein

Saboteur

all 3 of these games were createad before metal gear

Except none of them are stealth action games. Try harder.

yes they are in fact saboteur was the first game with metal gear SOLID gameplay

"The only real advantage the ps3 has is the extra storage space"

He also says the Xbox360 has more memory available to use for development apart from the extra 10MB edram of the 360, because Sony's system uses more memory in non-gaming tasks. Is he wrong? or is the ps3 really simply just the weaker hardware?

themyth01

he is reluctant to work on a architecture he doesn't understand... good job with the making a duplicate thread btw.

I don't see any duplicate... You think Carmack doesn't understand the architecture? are you serious? do you know who this guy is?

Yeah he's a developer who never made a single game on ps3 before.

I mean come onnn, you cant look at mgs4 and uncharted and say it's that bad...

But he never said it was "bad", he said it was not as good as the xbox360 hardware.

Dude, he almost squealed like a little girl in that interview.

No, I haven't.

A lot of game has "stealth elements" but that doesn't make em a stealth game.. For instance in Metroid Zero Mission you have a part as Zero Suit Samus yer suppose to avoid dectection etc.

There are parts in Wind Waker that makes you sneak around, does it make a stealth game? No.

I recognize Carmack as the creator of first-person shooters in the same way I recognize Kojima as the creator of stealth. Games came out with elements of both before Wolfenstein 3D or Metal Gear, but those are widely recognized as the first true games in their respective genres. Kojima was even deemed the creator by Guiness...

This Carmack guy need to give it a rest, and what's worst is that lems are taking his words like facts, but fail to realize that there are PLENTY of games and dev out there that actually has been or have worked on the ps3 that heavily contest his claim. The proof is in the pudding guys, the ps3 do have games that (visually) contest (or in some cases, beat out) the 360's best looking game to date.

KZ2, critics said that visually, this game isn't anywhere near short of amazing

Uncharted, 3 reviewers have stated that this game was the console graphics king during it's reign

MGS4, nearly every reviewer stated that this game is not only one of (if not) the best looking game on consoles to date visually, but they also said technically as well.

Yet, since this guy Carmack, created a genre that was a success, and knows computer hardware inside and out, all of a sudden, he knows what hes talking about. Quality dev like Activision and Ubisoft said that the ps3 was easy to develop for in which both companies produced quality games on the ps3 (COD4 and Assasins Creed) (something that Carmack has yet to do), but since Carmack is what he is, all of these credible statements just went out the window huh? Do mind yall lems, that the only game that looks to have surpass gears on the 360 and ran efficiently is gears2 after 2 years of exclusives:lol:, while games on the ps3 gets better and better in visuals. When "Carmack" makes a game that gets good praises like the games i gave above on the ps3, then his words IMHO can hold weight, but until then, his words means NOTHING!!!!!!!!!

by the way, didn't the people at Crytek (the ones that assisted in Crysis, which happens to be the generation's graphics king as of now) stated that the ps3 is more powerful? but since Cramack created a new genre and was successful at it, he can give pointers on how and what this gen is all about, but all in all, he hasn't made a single game on the ps3 or a game that looks better than Crysis? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry for answering so late but it was 3AM and right now i'v got a party to go too so let me get this over with

The game was not about "stealth elements" and it didn't have parts where you could be stealthy, you had to be stealthy troughout the entire game

if you can't see the stealth in these games then there's nothing i can do for you

I have no problem admiting that Metal gear was better at it then them, but it was not the first

Gameplay video wolfenstein

you see how you have to dodge your enemies? how they only see you if you are in front of them you see how you don't have to fight them?

Gameplay video Saboteur

see the multiple paths? the cameras to avoid? see how the dogs act differently then soldiers? See that it's better to avoid enemies ?

Isn't Kojima in the Guiness book for inventing the Stealth genre ? Wht's everybody arguing for here ? fact is Kojima did invent and refined Stealth genre as we know it today, it is not debatable, it is fact.

xbox 360 xenos gpu is more powerful than the ps3's rsx gpu, and it's the gpu that does most of the work, also the rsx is based on nvidia 7600 architechture so it doesn't even have unified shader architechture as this did not appear in nvidia cards till the 8800, the cpu on the 360 may be inferior to the cell, but it still runs at a far higher system bandwith than the cell, plus the 360 has shared ram which means the gpu can use all 512mb whereas on the ps3 the memory is split so the ps3 can't use all 512mb for it's rsx without bottle necking the cell. so when it comes to game's the 360 has provebly better hardware, the only thing the ps3 has the advantage in is storage space (blu ray).
