I know I never gave the PS3 a chance to prove it's viability as a graphical powerhouse before selling it, But I seen gears of war on an HDTV and it killed my respect for the PS3. I think we can all agree that PS3 does not have a game now that can compare to GEARS visually. Do owners of both agree? I mean I think I can explain it like this, In gears a bolt is a bolt. IT is full realized in 3-D. the ground looks 3-d, everything looks 3-d. But when I had my PS3, I noticed it had flat textures like the PS2. Just at higher resolutions. I hope the PS3 can do better texture work, Cause that's really what makes GEARS stand out. And when I get My next PS3 (when white comes to the US) I hope it proves me wrong, cause anything above the 360 graphically is great for hardcore gamers. But as it stands, I dont know the PS3 can do that kind of texture work.

It can't do Gears texture work it doesn't have enough RAM. Sony crippled the system by shoving Blu-ray in there.

Well, UT3 will be coming to PS3 and it's using the UE3, the same engine Gears runs on if that makes you feel any better.

I was thinking of a RAM problem as well.

Gears doesn't really do anything the PS3 couldn't handle.

Surely this isn't debatable, considering what we've seen of Uncharted looks as least as good as Gears.

But will it have the texture detail in the PS3 version that it will in the 360 version? I think graphically thatand AA is the only difference. But they make a huge difference.

PS3 will have some great looking games, don't let your hopes fall. I have both systems, and well multiplat games look as good on PS3, most of the GS comparisons don't do it justice, I'm thinkin because they're using it maybe on just regular SDTV's, mine are both on a Hi def TV. But, as of right now PS3 has no game on the system(exclusive or multiplat) that can compete with Gears graphically, there's no doubting that. In the future tho, PS3 will be competing with the 360, and even surpassing it in the graphics department. That's just my oppinion.

I has more than enough RAM, just used differently and more efficently IMO. Read about the hardware.

best in-game i could find of uncharted. notice the ground from gears? that alone should explain why I think the texture work in gears kills even uncharted.

on a side note, i think i speak for almost every lemming when i say this but if any cow says the picture that akuma303x found and used is not good enough and that he chose a bad one on purpose, then you need to find one better to prove your argument.

Sony should bump map everything too. It's cheap hardware and dev-wise to do, it makes games look pretty cool (though like clay), and makes people think hte graphics are really cool (which means they are). Gears looks sweet. Only problem I have with gears graphically is that the cover is really often just randomly placed rectangles, which look about as real as pamela anderson's t*ts.

I don't see why this is the fault of the Playstation 3 in regards to Gears. It's not as though it does not have the graphical power there to do

As you can see by upcoming game titles such as Uncharted, Metal Gear,UT3, CoD4, even Killzone 2 :shock: that the power is there, it was just that earlier first generation games were.......well they were just that, first generation games on a new system.

gears look good but too many shortcomings thats why so many gears games sit on the Gamestop shelves. The game was entirely too short and multiplayer is ok, not great. What we dont know if the game was short due to time contraints or due to the DVD being ran out quickly due to the high rez streaming textures. the game was also mostly closed enviroments. Im not knocking gears but you can find 15-20 used copies per gamestop store.

It's funny because I have also noticed A TON of Gears used copies at everyone game store I go to. It seems to have the most used copies of any game most of the time.

I love how people instantly dismiss a console because it "0wNs" another in graphics, single minded fanboys FTL!

i took one year to put out gears, its going to take the ps3 one year to put out MGS4. MGS4 is going to blow away gears in every way possible.

Nope. MotorStorm is such a great graphical achievement. Pictures or online video's don't do the game justice, you need to see it on an HDTV in action to really appreciate it.
