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

[QUOTE="ermacness"]

[QUOTE="goodtobeback"]

how i compared ps2 vs dreamcast power? it was by multiplatform games...ps2 was more difficult to program for but still outperformed it at multiplats.

xbox360 has overall proved it's more powerful than ps3.

PAL360

Actually multiplats are the ONLY way possible to compare console capabilities :? Some are developed first on 360, other on PS3 and the results are allways similar versions.

Saying 360 can run Uncharted2 is as biased as saying PS3 cant run Gears 2. Theres simply no proof.

[QUOTE="KevinButlerVP"]

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??

Gears 3 will surpass uncharted 2, epic is the only dev pushing the 360 to it's limits.johny300

[QUOTE="clone01"] then pc wins. at this point, you're fighting for second place.EndlessPunisher

Why do console players argue so much about graphics?

My god, Gears looks amazing, Uncharted looks amazing.... is there any hope for gamers?

[QUOTE="-Snooze-"]Cows are the ones saying the 260 is all tapped out, and how it can never produce UC2 visuals. Whilst ever sane person knows that visual quality will increase over time, as devs find better ways to use the limited hardware.Gears 3 releasing and being better looking then UC2 would just prove that Cows are full of s**t Besides, let's not pretend the current videos aren't on par with UC3(If not better)Mrmccormo

Epic along with every other developer.

I remember when Cows were claiming the first UC3 pics were in game :lol:

Then we got to see in game and it looks slightly better then UC2, which for all we know could be down to cherry picking scenes.

Gears 3 on the other hand looks far better then Gears 2 from all the gameplay vids we've seen.

Woah, did I just step into a time machine? Is this 2006? People are still arguing over console power.

[QUOTE="Mrmccormo"][QUOTE="goodtobeback"]

medal of honor on ps3 uses unreal engine 3 for single player, the godrays in that beat uncharted 3 or killzone3's godrays already.

goodtobeback

you compare games in all aspects.

gears 3 has better textures look more detailed upclose than uncharted 3.

i own gears 2 and uncharted 2....gears 2 textures look better upclose.

Actually uncharted 3 looks a fair bit better than uncharted 2 from the gameplay video's. It's gotten a slightly higher polygon count and sharper textures along with better post processing effects. As well as lighting.

Which, btw both of those games have amazing lighting... Either they'll end up looking the same, or uncharted 3 will look slightly better because of the character models. Because both games are pretty much even in everything but character models so far.

Yeah, its weird seeing people fight over games that have a 1280x770 resolution, little aliasing, sub 30fps and pre baked graphical effects. Its like watching homeless people fight over a dollar store shirt.:PMFDOOM1983

actually there is a game on the xbox 360 that comes close to uncharted 2. The game is multiplat though. It is called Assasins Creed Brothahood. If you say otherwise you haven't played it plain and simple.

It looks good but it's not that impressive technically. It's mostly because of the art style. The game sure does look good but I think prince of persia looks better :D

Hope? What exactly happens if Gears 3 isn't the most graphically impressive game on the market? Does Microsoft go out of business? Is the game no longer capable of being good? Where was all this placed importance of graphics when Sony's PS2 was the weakest major competing platform? Where's your proof that the 360 is less powerful?

the 360 fanboy's die inside. That's what happens D:

I'm thinking it has to do with the same subjective views that the 360 has failed to match the PS3 in visuals ...

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?

The most graphically intensive 3rd-party games(Resident Evil 5, Red Dead Redemption) look and perform better on the 360. That should tell you something. CrustyBritches

Yeah ... The PS3 RDR was a bit crap. On the Xbox however it is nothing short of a technical marvel.

Of course you'd rather be amazed at how Naughty Dog can make a 6 hour straight line, full of set pieces look decent.

actually they are technically impressive games. They don't quite match even killzone 2, which is the 3rd best looking game on the consoles, but they are very impressive.

: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:

[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="ermacness"]If you think that we're (or more likely,I'm) discussing the quality of a game, then you need to go to the entry of the thread, and read the title. We're discussing VISUALS here, not QUALITY OF THE GAME.

AW looks amzing

^That looks terrible. Reminds be of the blurry messes that are rdr and gta4 on ps3.

Oh wait, all three are sub hd.:(
