ok i was thinking why soo many games aren't preped for 7.1 audio and 1080p. because mS in their rush to be first killed it for us. Why is madden not a native running 1080p because its first made for xbox then ported to the ps3 because its the easiest thing to do. And im not sure that the 360 can handel it. playing gears on my brothers 360 it sounds like a battle in there. its scary. if the 360 sounds this bad with this gens games what about the future. While maybe our ps3 does not have the greatest games right now i do know that it does not sound like saving private ryan in there aand i dont worry about failure like the red lights.

think about it, if the 360 was able to play 1080p and 7.1 from launch then we would have those as the norms. but the 1080p came in a update. now very few games will come this way and i think none for the 360. I have to wait for kojima and MSG4 to experiance true next gen componets.

and i know that most people dont have 1080p monitors or 7.1 audio systems but for the few of us that do, we deserve a next gen experiance.

If games are released that Do make use of PS3's potential, this problem won't be very persistant.
A first party could get things started.

  1. That's the good thing about this gen... System's are "upgradable" with online updates... What system before the 360/PS3 allowed you to do that? And I know about the PC, but we're talking about console's here..
  2. And Madden is probably the worst example you could use for your argument... EA have NEVER took advantage of a system until late in it's lifecycle.. It took them two tries before they added the features in the 360 version that were already standard in the PS2/XB versions.. Not to mention the extra things they're now charging extra (Micro Trans) for... Pick another dev house for your argument dude..
  3. And the 1080p/7.1 dolby or whatever argument is irrelevant.. Most gamers don't even have this setup.. Besides if it were so important... Why is the wii kicking the PS3/360's ass right now... Yea that's what I thought..

Well it is MS's fault this generation started so damn early. Industry hasn't really been ready for full swing until this year. I'd probably be a MS supporter right now if they'd waited till Fall 06 to launch. The system would be far more powerful than PS3, reliable, no stupid power brick, had HD-DVD included, and launched with Gears.

I agree with you that M$ has a bad strategy this gen. Are they hurting gaming? No way! Wii and Sonyare patching the holes that M$ did a year earlier.

1. what is an upgrade going to do when while playing gears the 360 is loud as hell what am i to expect with COD4

2. point taken

3. im sorry but when i think of next gen gaming and i am a pretty hardcore gamer i dont think of the wii. MyGF loves herwiibut she wont touch the 360 or the ps3. and most of the people who i know own a wii play on a sdtv. thats why i dont count the wii
