Now that 360 graphics have failed to match PS3's, is there any hope for Gears 3?

a while back Alan Wake's graphics were hyped through the roof, it was even said to look better than Uncharted 2. well now that AW and many other 360 games graphics were hyped for best looking game on consoles and have failed to match PS3 graphics, is there really any hope for Gears 3 to match PS3's amazing graphics?

especially since every game 360 game before has not matched up PS3's quality graphics??

Obligatory argument about how the developers just haven't pushed the hardware.

Until a 360 game comes out and proves otherwise, then no.

Maybe you should wait for Gears 3 to be released and then pass judgment on it?

Gears has usually looked pretty damn impressive in both of their past iterations. I see no reason why Gears 3 won't follow suit. Will it look better than the PS3's best? I dunno. Does it need to? No.

i wouldn't pay to much attention to whats in hype threads. i mean look at GT5 was hyped to be the best looking this side of crysis and we all know how badly that flopped.

in any case just because the PS2 has worse graphics that the XBOX did that mean you throw out you PS2

if you are so worried about gfx why are you playing games on a console.

OMG! I'M HIDING BEHIND PC!!! MY TRANSFORMATION IS COMPLETE AND IT'S OFFICIAL I'M A COW!!!!! :cry:

In some ways Alan Wake is easily on par with GOW3 and U2. Its not like PS3 exclusives are a generation ahead in terms of graphics like most cows tend to believe.

Stringerboy

The majority of the time I game on PS3 and I do not think it is a generation ahead. I even argue that the PC isn't a gneraration ahead. The PS3 exclusives do tend to look better. GOW 3 did beat out Alan Wake for graphics award and nothing can top U2 at the moment.

in any case just because the PS2 has worse graphics that the XBOX did that mean you throw out you PS2

Vinegar_Strokes

Exactly.

Graphics can only only take a title so far, they're not the be all and end all of a good game..

To be honest, Gears 3 might beat out a few PS3 exclusives but probably won't surpass KZ3 or U3.

But you know what? Life goes on...

Just because the PS2 has worse graphics that the XBOX did that mean you throw out you PS2

Vinegar_Strokes

Exactly. It's all about the games & the library, & not the hardware. If the hardware with better graphics were the case, then the Xbox would've easily won against both the GC & PS2 last gen. And honestly, most PC games in the book look much better than the exclusives on PS3, anyway.

I have both a 360 and PS3 and see very little difference at all in the graphics. I DO however see a HUGE difference in controllers "360 is best" and that the 360 has one of my favorite games on it "L4D" and the PS3 dont...SO...where does this leave us?

true.. but games with great visuals can also be fun and have great gameplay.. GOW3, Geow2 & Ucharted2 are fine examples..

TC:- I Also think Alan Wake looks great and 360 didnt fail in terms of visuals, it has many great looking titles, both exclusives and multiplats..

I know that & I know what you're saying, but Cows always tend to act superior whenever a certain great looking game comes around, & then says some gibberish like "LOL, 360 is weaker than the PS3!", etc., even though the specs for both systems prove to be just about the same with each other. It's just that Sony's developers push out greater graphics for their games because they have the talent & experience much more than the developers for MS has.

It's annoying, & it gets very old, very fast.

Does anyone really care? This gen is nothing like past ones where one machine was head and shoulders a step up on the competition graphically. Arguing over which has better graphics is like counting grains of sand. The two are so close, what difference does it make? None. Ninja-Hippo

:lol:

This place is just too hilarious. When the ps3 outdoes the competition in something, it passes off like "so what?", but was it the lems who touted that the ps3 GPU is old and cheap? Was it the lems who touted that the 360 have the superior GPU. by miles? Was it the lems who tried to use multiplats as a factor to defining a console's true power? The exclusives aren't denerations apart, but UC2 (mostly) and GOW3 does have a noticeable lead on visuals vs most to all of the 360 exlusives.

BTW, i see some people here derailing the thread by stating salea. :lol:

Whoa, you got to play Gears 3 already!? Lucky!

I love these "PS3 vs. 360 graphics" threads... the arguments are just so funny. "I think PS3 has better graphics than 360, so that's the truth!" :lol:

nope not in cows eyes cuz they seem to think or act like theres a big difference when theres obviously not

nothing can look anywhere near as good as a PS3 exclusive like KZ2 on Uncharted2 to a PS3 fanboy

:lol:

Yeah they'll do that... Its Lems afterall. A good looking game is always nice but i can happily play a jaggy game with washed-out looking colours... I buy multis on my PS3 afterall... And i own an xbox i just don't see the big deal of it. Oh and the GPU's on either console are relatively similar even though the PS3 one is touted for being ancient and old and rubbish but there really isnt much difference.

Yup, nothing makes me laugh harder than "sales" arguments. Could anything be a less trustworthy indicator than "sales" a.k.a. popularity.

Especially in a world where Family Guy is the "premiere" comedy; to argue sales is basically to say "I trust the dumb"

Heck, most of the lems would put CoD: BO on their side because of it being superior to the ps3 version.

Both sides do it, it just that the cows make a little more sense than the lems.;)

xbox360=lacks software to take advantage of it's hardware.

halo reach just uses updated halo ce engne.

and gears of war uses the unreal engine 3 which is used on plenty of ps3 multiplats.

uncharted 2 and killzone2 those engines are only used on ps3.

and alan wake is based off old engine built for pc.

gears 3 textures u can already see kill uncharted 3.

the level design looks more complex on uncharted 3 because it has jumping/climbing unlike gears of war.

Who says Uncharted looks so good and why should we agree with them?

If I made a game which was linear to a fault and 80% set pieces i'd bloody well hope it looked half decent.

those graphics engines are only used on ps3, never used for any xbox360 game.

the unreal engine 3 has been used on ps3.

halo reach that graphics engine's from last gen.

Isn't Gears rather linear?

guess u dont know what parallax mapping is.

also, the godrays are dynamic on gears 3 and static on ucnharted 3.

medal of honor on ps3 uses gears 3 godrays though.

like the map tank on crysis 1# that map is freaking huge, but it's boring dude because your just walking and nothing's really any different on the level lol just a bunch of hills and trees.
