[QUOTE="Zassimick"][QUOTE="septicvirus"] So much for the Mighty RSX... err, I mean RSX + Cell combo. The man that almost everyone regards as one of the greatest developers out there, claims to have used 100% of the PS3's power - including teh Cell. The result, a game that is not as large as he wanted, AI not as expansive, textures not as high resolution.
He claims that he was MISLED about the POWER of the PS3. Is it going to far to think that all of the videogame fanboys may have been misled about capabilities of the PS3 also???

Much like other threads on this matter have said, I believe he had such high expectations that not even the highest quality gaming PC might be able to pull off what he wanted. He wanted adaptive AI whose emotions would change with what was happening in battle; he wanted a large game world and I would think that the larger the game world, the lower the textures must be.
Just because those parts didn't meet his expectations, it doesn't mean that he believes his game is bad or that the AI is crappy, or the game is not large. The game looks great and I doubt we've seen the pinnacle of the PS3's power. Remember last gen? We didn't see the pinnacle of the PS2's power till the end and maybe the same is occuring here.
Will you say the same thing if it turns out that MSG4 really is running at 576p? That would mean that it is going backwards - and essentially has to start sacrificing graphics in order to allow for some of the other things going on in the game.

MGS4 runs at 720p @ 60fps
Beyond3d are BSing themselves based on the trailers and screenshots they've seen on their tiny little monitor
they were right on some games but right after the games are out
