I apologize I digress. The bare bone of it however is that the 360 is more powerful. I know that anyone with a ps3 alone would dissagree. Perhaps because they payed so much for the console in the first place?
Xenos simply has more power - higher fillrate, higher pixel processing power, higher vertex processing power, and better memory architecture. If you look at multiplatform games and contrast the graphics on the two consoles, XBOX 360 almost always leads. Whether they use a higher resolution or higher quality antialiasing, games often look better and/or play smoother on the 360.
Gears Of War 2 will have better graphics over the likes of Resistance 2 due to Unreal Engine 3+X360 GPU. Both games have huge production values however Gears Of War 2 will look better. As for MGS4 it looks simular to Assassins's creed etc. Why is this? It is because 360 and PS3 are the same generation even if the most ardent Sony fans think otherwise.
The graphics are better on 360 on every single multiformat game I have ever played. I hear Sony fanboys saying that the 360 multiformat titles are pulling down the ps3's so called untapped power. I think however due to the 360's superior graphics on games such as Assassin's creed (see gamespot graphics comparison) people like you and I are starting to see through Sony's marketting ploy. The untapped power seems to delay games like Alone in the Dark for ps3 for half a year and for what reason as the graphics will be the same. (see R6 Vegas which was delayed twice for ps3 due to so called development issues). Obviously the developers will get used to this system but how is it good that the console is more complex yet on advancement scales average?
This is a sticky subject for a lot of fanboys. A very common argument in most flame wars is that the Playstation 3 simply "has better graphics". I'm not sure where that argument came from; Sony obviously did a good job of marketing the system. However, the argument is entirely false. The Xenos GPU on the XBOX 360 is superior the RSX on the PS3. This is one thing that didn't change in the past year.
Not very long for me if they do not start pulling better titles out of their hats. I mean it is a great console but where are the killer games... look at E3 07.
