Ubisoft has bigged up its working relationship with Microsoft on Splinter Cell: Conviction, suggesting that it's going to take full advantage of 360's strengths. "There's going to be a really strong partnership with Microsoft," producer, Alexandre Parizeau told CVG this week. "Obviously we'll do everything that we can do to make sure that the experience is indebted with whatever the Xbox has to offer. "I want to make sure that when the game hits the shelves the disc will 'meld' with your Xbox 360 - it's meant for the Xbox 360 and it will show," he said somewhat enthusiastically.

On the untypical circumstances of making a game that's platform exclusive, Parizeau said: "it's really cool to be able to focus technology on one platform, to be able to really exploit it to the maximum of its capacity. "We've been working with Microsoft for a while now. We've been working with their engineers - we've had super good feedback from them on all sorts of different things. It's been a really good partnership with them. "They're backing us up. There's no question that they're supporting the game to its fullest," he said.

It sounds as if it was an exclusive or at least timed exclusive.

When an engine is designed to really use the 3 chips in the xbox it will really show, just like the games designed specifically for the PS3. The point though is neither system is as far ahead as the xbox was over the ps2. You guys make way to much fuss over which is technically superior when there much more similar in graphics output performance than either one outshining the other. And the pc blows them both away graphically, which makes these kinds of arguments even more silly

It's supposed to be 360/PC but if MS has anything to say, and sounds like they do, we can expect the 360 version to come out first.

Aha. Yeah, right. I'll believe it when I see it. I'm far too fond of the colors in Uncharted (which will presumably be in Uncharted 2) to think SC:C will look better. But, good luck to them!

Once a dev takes advantage of the 360 you will see that both systems are incredibly similar and all this "Xbox 360 is weak" rubbish will be put to sleep.

It means it will red ring after the intro. But seriously, I don't get why any person except rabid fanboys would care about PR talk like that.

Yeah, just like FF13 was going to take full advantage of the PS3...it is all money, MS loves to buy 3rd party exclusives and Splinter Cell is a title that started with XBOX so no surprise that they payed for it.

Cows seems to believe that the 360 can't match the PS3, Well it's about time devs started using the hardware more.

It may be true? Who cares, they're similar enough in graphical capability that there's no point arguing.

Obviously it's not going to embarass uncharted 2, but the question is can it surpass it.

PS3 1st party devs all take advantage of the PS3, As for 360 devs it's more focus on the game itself for example Halo 3.

I never said SCC would make uncharted 2 look like a joke try reading my posts. The games that are coming fall 2009 and 2010 make older 360 games look pretty bad graphically, Thats what i mean by taking advantage.

SC has a completely different graphics style, but I think the overall graphics quality betwee UC2 and SC will be close, and the gameplay in SC will be better

CHRION987

Maybe for you since it has an auto aim feature.:P

No, but really comparing past games i think i'll pick uncharted gameplay. The character animations in UC are what get me, they make me feel like i am playing as an actual human being. Unlike most games where i feel like i'm a robot.

Anyway SC is one of the few Xbox games i'm looking forward to so please, and this is to both cows and lems, dont ruin it for me.

The developers have already said explicitly that the reason they're not making the game for PS3 is because of an existing business agreement, and not due to any technical/technological limitation.

wait a second did the the other developers say the same thing about mass effect? how good its going 2 look and when it came out it looked bad i mean it took nr the same amount of years as killzone 2 and killzone 2 turned out better 360 is a joke and Cpu is a joke the only thing thats good is the Gpu for graphics where the Cell can create the graphics along with RSX and that makes the games look better on ps3 when there exclusive

Let's hope the PC version is a good port, eh? The game does look quite good. Perhaps the maxed PC version will look better than U2...

Hopefully they won't do something like EA and just forget about optimizing the PC ports.
