[QUOTE="Sihanouk"][QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] you act like 360 games are looking dated?
Gears of War, Bioshock, and Mass Effect are beautiful by todays standards.
Heck They are actually HD, unlike the "console graphics" king Metal Gear Solid 4.
Those games are 720p native. Gears of War 2, Tales of Vesperia, Fable 2, Banjo Nuts and Bolts, etc all look great.
Resident Evil 5 looks to be the best visually in terms of consoles. and so far that has all been 360 footage.
For me an HDTV owner, the PS3 got me a bluray player to watch Bluray movies. Which im still looking for a Godfather Blu Ray(I want justice).
Other than that the games department yes it got me the best game this gen(MGS 4), and a few other good games.
Ratchet, and I'll be buying Uncharted later this week or next week.
Where as the 360 has gotten me far more games, a superior online, and has just as good a future as the PS3. jg4xchamp
I am not saying 360 games LOOK dated. I am saying all of those games are more and more dated in a technological sense...none of them has any technology that can't be seen on a PS3 that I know of. On the other hand, on the 360, you won't find the advanced animation in Uncharted, the photorealism in Gran Tourismo 5 Prologue, the awesome audio in Metal Gear Solid 4, the most muliltplayer in Resistance, etc.
Resident Evil 5 or not, I say it now: if a game can be done on the 360 it will not be described as "the most technologically advanced game"...ever. This is simply due to the inferior power, less disk-space, lack-of-stardard hard disk drive, etc.
I give you props for saying that MGS 4 is the best game this gen, but I can't be as nice towards the 360. I wouldn't be honest if I tell you I think the 360 has as good a future as the PS3. No freaking way....unless Microsoft no longer cares about profits....no freaking way.
the mp in Resistance can be done on the 360.
1- there are MMO games on the 360. so the 60 player MP limit can be done on the 360.
2- Frontlines had a big mp, and so did Blackhawk down on XBOX. both games suck. Its about quality of the game, not just quantity of players. Gears of War has only 8 players, COD 4 only 24, and Halo 3 only 16. Yet all 3 are more critically acclaimed than the PS3.
3- That doesn't mean the games aren't better if they don't have the audio or visuals. Crysis isn't the best game this gen. and it has the best VISUALS out there. THe audio is fantastic as well.
4- I disagree. The 360s future might be brighter. We know the 08 lineup
09 and beyond still has Champions Online, Alan Wake, Project Origin, Splintercell Conviction, Halo Wars, Too Human 2, Mass Effect 2, Bioshock 2, Forza 3, Cry On, Starocean 4, Dead or Alive 5, etc
The 360 has the games now, and the way the 2nd half of 08 is looking the future as well.
Sony has the killer apps in GT 5, Final Fantasy 13, and God of War 3. Everything else Microsoft can match from a software standpoint.
Unlike last gen where there was a clear superior system(PS2 even though XBOX looked WAY BETTER)
This gen will be a stalemate. 1 system will outsell the other, but it will never be enough for major dev support. The PS2 also has an MMO, so it can also have a very large number of players. The MMOs on the 360 or the PS2 don't have the graphics of Resistance. Only on the PS3 can you have very good graphics and a large number of players...Resistance 2 has already been played on the PS3 by Gamepro.
Sure, quantity, size, technology, etc. don't nessarily make good games. They can make good games better. The PS3 has a big advantage in technology: cell processor, blu-ray disks, and standard disk drives. Games like Metal Gear Solid 4 can never be done on the 360--how can you say the 360 has as good a future as the PS3, when you yourself said MGS 4 is the best so far this gen?
The reason why the 360 doesn't have as good a future as the PS3 is because games are getting bigger and more advanced, factors that heavily favor the PS3. Factor in built-in Blu-ray movie player, and you have an overwhelming advantage to the PS3. That's why most analysts say the PS3 will fare better this generation than the 360, which is fated to be last.--not a as good a future as the PS3, if you ask me.
