The Xbox 360 has been out on the market before the PS3 and Wii, and yet it hasn't evolved in the graphics departement since its initial launch. Were still seeing the same ol' oily greased brick and grass textures that keep getting reused over and over since Perfect Dark Zero. However, the PS3 has shown a big improvement in its games from RFoM to the graphic console king of today, Uncharted. You would think that with the big lead in the race, the 360 would have shown something better by now as well as fixing the long overdue RRoD problem. These little mistakes are just the tip of the iceberg on why BluRay is a much needed necessity in gaming.

If you prefer the 360 over the PS3, fine, but saying that Uncharted sucks is just plain ignorant and foolish.

The truth is,even if 07 for 360 was a good year (about games releases), 360 lost 2.3% of the worldwide sales compare to 06!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dont know what it didnt improved more,sale even more than 06 with so many games.

Why, is it against the law to not like Uncharted?

uncharted is a shalow imitation of several games all wraped up in a pretty little package, if marcus fenix had a child with lara croft then you would undoubtably get uncharted. ok maybe it did do some things well but i still hate that damed game

as well as fixing the long overdue RRoD problemSolidus4k

As well as?

They'd be impressive enough if they just fixed that issue.

Useless.

There have been clear progressions is visuals for XBOX 360 games. An example being COD2 to COD4.

guys be real, there's no better looking game than Gears of War which is ONE YEAR OLD!! (btw it's a great game)but look at the PS3, after a full year the visuals have really improved, (look at Uncharted), hell, even the Wii GFX has been improving(look at SMG). but the X360?

we hoped ME would be the "graphics king" but it couldn't do it, Gears of War is still the graphics king for the X350 and will stay until the next Epic title.
