Will any PS3 game feature "Good Textures"?

only on focus points like characters and vehicles. MGS4 already is showing similar R:FOM ground textures.marklarmer

Damn........ They need to use the built in HDD to stream the textures in then!!! Christ.

I don't want MGS4 to look like Low res vomit. at least the enviromental textures.

With the amount of ram the PS3 has I doubt it. pimperjones

same amount of total ram as 360 you know

But what aboout teh built in HDD texture cacheing? :cry:

but isn't split? 256mb / 256mb so that the GPU can only show 256mb of texture at any give time on the screen?

PS3 ain't about the textures it's about Magical Powers generated by the Magical CELL. LOL

like oblivion on PS3?

Yes, but do you think the otehr 256MB is waisted? No, if used well the ps3 can have better textures than the 360 (oblivion). Though does take a bit more work for the ps3 version to look better...

All PS3 games have good textures, they don't need to be better than the 360 textures to be good. Dahaka-UK

Well at least better than "Gun" for the 360 :)

Yea, it has 512mb, its just split, the GPU can grab a hefty amount of it

look at Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, MGS4, these games look great

Lets face it splitting the ram was a bad idea, especially when you have a weak GPU to begin with. It's not the end of the world in the end graphics are not totally dependant on high textures the art design is 80% of the graphics the textures is just 20%, that why games like MGS4 will rule.

Everyone says that with a bit more work game devs can achieve the same graphics if not better than the Xbox 360 but no one realizes that nobody wants to do a bit more work. In the real world you have a deadline and if the frame rates aren't where it's suppose to be then guess what you start lowering textures and removing light sources. I have a feeling it's gonna be like this for a long time with multiplat games.

Looks alright to me:?

ok it might have a bad gpu now, but isnt sony also trying to use the cell as a gpu also, im pretty sure killzone2 is supposed to be using the gpu in the ps3 and the one made on the cell, the built in one for smaller things and the cell one for the bigger stuff, dont mind if i sound stupid im not that great with this stuff, but i think im right.river_rat3117

Thats what Sony's Edge Tools is suppose to be teaching but most devs at this point are still using the old tried and tested method of GPU for graphics. It's gonna be a while before they start riding on Sonys CELL for everything bandwagon.

yea im sorry but Heavenly Sword is a very impressive game visually

Yes.

Isn't that going to strain the CPU(CELL),wasn't that the big advantage over 360 better artificial intelligence and physic, more smarter enemies on screen then 360.

since when does the video ram have that much to do with textures? i have a 8800GTS 320 on my comp, and i will be able to run Crysis full blast at 1680X1050 as i do with COH without a problem. in fact they say crysis will run extremely well on a high end 7 series card with 256mb of ram, so not sure i see anyones point with the vram argument.

It is split and the PS3 OS takes 96 MB total. The 360 OS takes 32 MB. The reason it that Sony doesn't have the software expertise of Microsoft.

HAHAHAHA, software expertise? classic. yea, windows was always so wonderful at managing resources and memory, perfect company to make a better OS. this is the best quote i think ive ever seen. lemme guess, dont know much about computers?

really, then why do the 8800GTS 320 and 640 perform exactly the same on low resolutions, and the only time the 640 starts to shine is when it goes into the higher resolutions. looks like every tech review site and benchmark wins, and you lose. next time try to form an actual argument, not just your silly opinion
