PS3 can do physics better than Xbox360

"Although the PhysX libraries accelerate a host of technologies, from physical object interactions to fluid-based particle effects like water and smoke, only the PlayStation 3 and a PhysX PC will have the horsepower to process all of the technology's features, Ageia executives said. The Xbox 360 will not be able to process the fluid-based technology, because of the limitations of its architecture."

Fluid-based technology?

maybe you missed my sig

and the demo was boring, they should cut the game to $ 40 for no multiplayer and lack of replayability

without reading your post: yes, it should be better. ubisoft is talking nonsense.furtherfan

ubisoft talked about AI not physics. read next time.

good now if only a developer can harness that power....elite_ferns1

there is NO POWER TO FRIGGIN HARNESS!! stop clinging on to that garbage!

What a reputable source :roll:sonicare

You don't need a source to know that the PS3 can do physics better, it has more MIPS than any market CPU atm, and is the only cpu that can do liquid-physics at a somewhat decent framrate (most cpu's can not ppu's can render it at about 1 fps)

And this from the company that couldn't even get a game to support their hardware in 2007. Oh how I wish their hardware was in the 360 :P.

Physx hardware isn't in the PS3, it can run their physics engine though, which your 360 can;t.... >.>

Hmmm... this reminds me that " Ray-tracing cloud" in Warhawk couple years back...

Cows were runing around and saying " PS3 is soooooo powerful....ray-tracing cloud FTW...!!"...

up to this day...no one knows what the heck is ray-tracing cloud, and no one mentions it anymore.

Yeah...so let's hype this fluid-based particle effects thing...what ever it is.....

fluid-based particle effects FTW!!!!

I guess nobody saw this. Ageia retracted their comments saying that 360 could not render liquids.

I wish gaming went back to gaming and not physics and cell architecture.nikolajz1

No gaming without that stuff.

Thanks God I have a HIGH-END pc and a 360, Who needs a PS3?

That is the worst, weakest, limpest flamebait I have seen today!!!! LMAO

Tell me you didn't just link to an article dated Sep 1, 2005 before the 360 even came out quoting some lame now dead company speculating about crap they knew nothing about months before the 360 even came out and more than a year before the PS3 came out? LMAO.

Do you people even read the stuff you link too?

BTW...absolutely love the counter-link submitted above, wherein the same losers you quoted from Sep 1st 2005 stated a few whopping days later that QUOTE WE REALLY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THE 360 CAN DO ENDQUOTE.

LMAO. Check the link a few posts above this one. Talk about self ownage.

[QUOTE="JiveT"]Incredible water effects in BIOSHOCK say hi! KTHXBYE.ssjgoku808

This is a discussion about X360 and PS3 physics. Do not bring that PC crap in here.

Does anyone realize that the significance of this link outweighs everything, from Madden to Ubisoft?

Well explained by a third party source. I think we have a winner.

Obviosly, you havn't played the demo yet, when i first began to play it took me a couple of seconds to find out i wasn't watching a cut-scene

The way physics are nowadays (HL2, LbP), will we even see that much of a difference?nyoroism

My thoughts exactlly.

wow, I remember people arguing over this way back IN 2005which is when this article CushVA

Haha, wow.
