[QUOTE="Hahadouken"]Won't be touching it. If they can't put the effort in to make a decent game I will not reward them for it on either platform.RedruM_I

I love how the sensationalist media will say things like "the hardware can't compete", yet have no answer for games like Uncharted 2 or Killzone 2. Teh hardware just can't keep up, which is why it has produced more technically impressive games than the X360 in the last year... as always, the devs put the time and effort into the platform that will be the best return on their investment, which is the 360, so no surprise there, what is slightly surprising is how people take this to the bank.Hahadouken

Each console does things better then the other the effects used in Bayonetta take advantage of what the ATI GPU in the Xbox360 can do that is all. Try not to let what the article has said effect you that much 'Sensationalist media' what?!

Yeah read that earlier was waiting for someone to post it seems the guys at PlatinumGames really took advantage of the Xbox360's GPU strengths judging from the article nice to see that happen as it doesnt happen that often.

Statements from the article -

"Presumably the split 256MB pools of RAM in the PS3 caused the development team headaches in converting across a game designed for the 360, with its unified 512MB of memory. This, coupled with the use of more efficient texture-compression techniques built into the Xenos GPU, leaves the 360 build with an array of smaller-scale advantages in addition to the bigger ones. For starters, there's general texture quality."

"The crux of the matter is that the PlatinumGames team has created a game engine that targets all the things that the Xbox 360 architecture does well, to the point where it's almost as if the core development was on similar lines to a first-party exclusive. Indeed, Bayonetta is technically more ambitious than many of Microsoft's own titles this year."

"As it is, the layering of transparencies, the sheer amount of them all over the screen, plus the added overhead of post-processing - it's the sort of thing that you shouldn't really be making central to the game experience in a multi-platform release, because the PS3 hardware just doesn't compete in this regard."

"For Xbox 360 owners perhaps feeling a bit bereft of state-of-the-art first-party gaming love this year, Bayonetta is like manna from heaven, and is well worth the plaudits. Its core technological and design philosophy favours Xbox 360 to such a degree that it puts a fair few first-party releases to shame. In places, it's absolutely epic. Go get it."

Microsoft should also be ashamed that it is left to a relatively small third party developer to make a game that uses the strength's of the Xbox360 hardware, this is one area that Sony is impressing me greatly.

You have to remember he does make these reviews to be entertaining so he picks up on little annoyences and blows them up making them seem worse then what they are.

[QUOTE="Doctor-McNinja"][QUOTE="tirralirra"]I think what TC and many other xbox haters are saying is that, Sony and Nintendo have gaming principles. Come on, everyone knows Xbox have been mocking gamers and the industry with their horribly autocratic business models. Buying exclusivity rights, getting DLC rights etc etc I mean, Nintendo and Sony did that too, but Microsoft are in a whole new league of 'suck my **** you fat nerd playing loners'. Thats the way i see it anyway.tirralirra

That same Valve that don't produce games for your console of choice? That same Valve who have gone on record numerous times to bash your console of choice? I don't get what you trying to prove by putting Valve in there?!?

For a Wii game the graphics in Darkside Chronicles are very nice but don't compare it to Left4Dead 2 i don't know where you even thought you could compare them?!? boggles the mind.

Left4Dead 2 Demo pictures below running on my PC max details -

Love these games so much love old school gaming as you will see from my signature link :D
