I hope not. we need competition. if there was no PS3, MS would charge $100 a year for XBL. if there was no 360, PS3 would have launched at $800.

For a game to look good it comes down to the GPU, not the CPU!

Even if the Ps3 can handle better graphics, why in God's name would that worry you?

That and 3rd party games continue to be supported and excel beyond their PS3 counter parts in most cases. Either way it shouldn't be a worry. The PS3 was supposed to always be more powerful then the 360.

People really do overestimate Cell, it can do visual effects but it wasn't built specifically for that. The bulk of PS3 visuals are still determined by RSX, Cell just adds a bit on top of that.

If all they are going to use it for is better visuals; talk about a waste a technology, they would have been better off investing in a custom GPU.

The X-Box and Playstation rivalry is one of the better rivalries we've had in recent memory. The last 2 generations had Sony having the dominant console. This generation is a little more even sided.

If I'm doing the math right....with the exception of the PSOne and the orignal Nintendo. (Dont remember how stong the Saturn or the N64 were. No I don't count Dreamcast since they were calling it quits before the PS2 came out) , the weakest system tends to capture the top spot.

as far as sales:

Sega Master System < NES

SNES > Sega Mega Drive

Game Gear > Gameboy

PS2 > Xbox, Gamecube

DS < PSP

Wii < PS360

all the greater than are weaker systems.

And not to many games were in development for as long as Killzone 2 and other PS3 exclusives. But, it of no consern to me...My favorite system from last gen was the PS2 the weakest system last gen(Yes, even weaker then the Gamecube) and I still loved and played it with better funner games. Not to mention that it didn't do to bad in sales either. So, is you are worried about a system doing better due to graphics, I wouldnt...

I have to disagree with the Game Gear one. It was alright, never better imo. Each to their own.

I want to believe that the Xbox 360 tri-core can keep up with the Playstation 3 cell. However, games like Heavy Rain, Killzone 2, Flower makes me wonder...Wiishy

Can you play games on 360? Yes

Are the games good on 360? Yes

So you just enjoy playing it and do not worry about stupid thing

PS2 was weaker than Xbox but I enjoyed PS2 very much. I wouldn't mind that PS3 is weaker than 360. Both systems are good and have great games

I think PS3 fans should be worried aswell. Their super computer with mighty cell cant handle 360 graphics is 95% of the cases...:P

fanboys... putting a vidoe game console before peoples jobs :roll: i dont think people realise what most fanboys want (games to fail, systems to fail) really means they want people to lose their jobs and maybe ruining their lives because of it. but its ok cause now a game you dont care about wont buy but only wanted to fail did, so you can now for some reason live a better life

edit: sorry for the ramble but its kind of sad sometimes when you think how selfish people are on here

You are scared because games that take 3 years and $120M happen to look good??? Games that take much time and money and get dev help from Sony should look good. I personally think that 360 games look better as a whole (although KZ2 does look good).

Gears 2 does. See what i did there? It my opinion, just like KZ2 looking better than Gears or RE5 is your opinion. Keep it to yourself.

MGS4 looked good - the rest of the games all look at the same level as the xbox 360

Apparently the multiplats actually look better on 360 - but I choose to ignore people that have soo little thier life that they like to spend their free time comparing screen shots.

You should be scared cause devs are finding ways to maximize the use of the 360 to it's fullest while devs are finding ways to fully utilize the PS3 to it's maximum.

It's seems the same when you read this but the PS3 as alot more to evolve with. The 4th year is where we see PS brands showing it's best and now its starting is 3rd year and we are already seeing a huge list of exlusives that show what it can really do.

Sorry to correct you, but the SNES was more powerful than the megadrive (over double the ram, better GPU) and outsold it. But yeah, overall I'd agree that its usually the weaker system that sells the most.

OP. You have nothing to worry about. Gears2 annihilates anything on or coming for the PS3. This isn't an opinion btw. It's a technical fact.

What Sony adopters will never appreciate is that videogames aren't static images. They move.

The 360 has (in addition to slightly more memory) a superior pipeline and thus superior speed.

Game over.

For ever!

I would disagree. Have you seen the graphics in Mass effect or Gears of War?? What are you basing this opinion on, the textures in KZ2 are kinda low res.

Ok... Watch some good quality Killzone 2 gameplay videos, then come back and see if you can really say Killzone 2 is not the best looking consoles. Killzone 2 is, thats it, all gaming sites agree, its as good as fact now.

looks at killzone 2... Then plays Gears 2 for a few mins... Now can you really say gears 2 looks better? Sure it looks very good but Killzone 2 looks much better, and motion??? Uncharted had brilliant animations, killzone 2 has the best animations so far...

I hope not. we need competition. if there was no PS3, MS would charge $100 a year for XBL. if there was no 360, PS3 would have launched at $800.

I disagree they would of launched at $800 if there was no MS. Nobody would of bought the ps3. I still think they would of put it out at the same price. They could of done that with ps2 by charging $500 when it was first released. However, I don't disagree about MS charging more money for online play and I never will agree with having to pay for online play its just absurd.

I have to disagree with the Game Gear one. It was alright, never better imo. Each to their own.

EDIT: Actually im not sure if I've misunderstood you.

Twas criptic... I went to say that the stronger grapical system tends to do the worst... As Manicfoot correted me I was wrong about the SNES Vs. Sega Mega Drive. So, 2 outta 7 gen of game actually did have the stongest system winning.
