Remedy: Next-Gen consoles are a quantum leap

[QUOTE="super600"]

[QUOTE="BeardMaster"]

it would cost at least $2000 to even come close to matching the 360/ps3 graphically, and the 360 would still be a quantum leap ahead.

BeardMaster

Nope

I found a laptop that is significantly more powerful then the 360 or PS3 for $1999

i know i just wanted to feel like a hermit for a moment, and just completely make something up.

I fell for it anyway.

So they are saying it's not going to a big leap?

That's in physics....

"a large quantity; bulk" is clearly their usage.

[QUOTE="LP4EVA2005"]Quantum Leap..i loved that show! dreamdude

Same here!

Meanwhile those that go with the Wii U will be left wondering "Why haven't I leaped".

Great news, it'll be at least 8 years before next Xbox/PS so I hope it's a big damn leap.

Awesome!! now we will be able to go back in time right??? :D

My toaster oven is a quantum leap over a console, doesn't make it the best thing ever

lol @ 700 dollar-1000 dollar consoles!

i for one am not buying them , if they are that much greater cause we all know sony,

theyll charge 1000 and microsoft will only charge 700 ,

and games would cost 70-80 bucks a pop on 720 ps4 vs 50-60 on the wii u , have fun going bankrupt with your checks !

cause if this is true there is no way sony is going cheap on this stuff everyone better have their check books in check lol cause if they don't theyll bounce !

As a PC gamer, I'm looking forward to the next gen of consoles, if only out of the hope that console hardware will finally stop degrading the quality and scale of multiplats.

[QUOTE="Heirren"][QUOTE="Zen_Light"]

Expensive hardware is not a good idea for consoles next generation. I don't believe it for a second.

Now I wait patiently for Alan Wake 2: The Return of Alan Wake - A Psychological Love Story

It was, but it was not better than what was possible with PC (X1800 in Crossfire or GTX 7800 in SLI).

Altho it's true that on the 360 all games run and on decet quality while on a X1800 barely any games run anymore (or if they do they don't look or run particularly well).

04dcarraher

Or maybe something about as powerful as the 7850 could be a possibility? Looking at the specs, it would be much closer to being as good as the 7870, but has a TDP of 130W instead of 175W. On top of that, it's significantly cheaper. With improvements in technology and parts getting cheaper, by the end of next year, who knows? It will be interesting to see. Maybe you're right though.

If it is faster than the speed of light.

what does he mean by quantum leap?

quantum leap my a$$...more like PC leap. lol

welcome to current gen lems and cows.

Sounds good and it's expected that the next-gen consoles will be a big step up from the current ones.

Well, except the Wii U which seems to be taking a Wii approach.

And then there are PCs which were quantum leaps years ago. Blabadon

But, you would have to then... play games on a PC. No consolite would stoop to such a rediculous thing.

Oh boy.

We must leap from game to game, striving to put right what once went wrong, and each time hoping that each game would be the game home.

PC gamers exaggerate the visual improvements in their games over consoles. They make it seem that their PC's are running Avatar level graphics compared to what is possible on current gen. Sorry, but the difference in visual fidelity between PC games and the PS3 are not the same as PS2/PS3. You actually need a side by side comparison to actually appreciate the differences.

In Quantum Leap, Scott Bakula was stuck in the past. Just saying...

[QUOTE="Sushiglutton"][QUOTE="SecretPolice"]I can go along a bit if speaking on the hardware side of things but riddle me this Batman :P why is the 2007 Crysis still considered by many if not most the current graphics king and it'l soon be 2013. :shock:

[QUOTE="04dcarraher"][QUOTE="emgesp"]

I didn't say there wasn't a difference, I said that the difference in visuals have been exaggerated. Crysis 2, or BF3 on the PC doesn't look like a game from a totally different gen than the 360 version.

emgesp

[QUOTE="emgesp"]

[QUOTE="04dcarraher"] Crysis 2 was a game designed around consoles and their limits and only had some touch ups done to the PC version. However BF3 is a totally different ballgame even though its multiplatform. A good developer will try to make everyone happy on every platform which is why in a game like BF3 the essence and core of the game is the same. However that where its ends though if you have seen and or play BF3 on Pc it feels and plays differently then from the console version let alone the visual and MP differences. Multiplatform games tend to be designed around console abilities then get straight up ported to pc, or upscaled and some work done to make it stand out on Pc, or they actually created a separate version actually taking use of Pc's correctly. Now you say that some exaggerate the visuals , that it totally dependent on the game however in many cases the difference are large enough to say their are massive improvements. 04dcarraher

A quantum is the physical equivalent of an infinitesimal, I'm not sure what he's trying to say here :lol:

Going from Killzone 1 to Killzone 2 was a huge improvement in regards to showing a dramatic improvement in visuals.
