Metro 2033 does the things that it does extremely well. Lighting, shadows, and certain effects are absolutely top-notch. Its animations are not. Its character models are definitely not platform-best. Its textures are inconsistent, as is its performance. Lost Planet 2, by contrast, runs consistently better, features more movement on screen at a given time, pushes more moving geometry, and features incredibly smooth animations. Just Cause 2 on the PC renders enormous environments at beautiful frame rates, with an amazing draw distance, plenty of Direct X 11 goodies, and a lot of geometry packed into any given view. The wonder of screenshots is that I could post any number of Metro 2033 shots at high settings that make the game look terrible, though as a whole, it is a great-looking game. (And obviously, I could do that with Lost Planet 2 and Just Cause 2!) But there is a lot of tech in modern games, and we look at every aspect of the game, weigh the pros and cons, and consider the platform on which it appears.

Straight from kevin-V in another thread on why metro was not nominated. Keep trying though cows.

So in other words,

Metro didn't really push bounderies, and wasn't worthy enough to carry God Of War 3's proverbial lunch on the way to the award show.

Yes...

I concur.

;)

You know...

I think it's entirely possible you got scammed.

:P

PC gaming is dead graphics have only gotten worse since 2007 :(

Zurrur

I concur

;)

Humm.....you said that every single gaming press said Killzone 3 looks better than Gears3. I would love you to post at least one or two examples of it :)

On the other hand, i said that in my opinion Gears3 looks as good as KZ3 and Uncharted3. Obviously going by vids.

As you can see....No one has played not even 1 frame of Gears Of War 3....No demo, no beta, no nothin.

Killzone 3, at least there was a beta.

So for the purposes of this subjects context, it might be best to not mention games that no one has played yet.

There's a good article about Retro Studios that should give you plenty of insight into Nintendo's relationship with their studios.

Props for giving me this article Teufelhuhn.

This is a very good one read and I'm only like 1/4 of the way in.

Thank you.

He added, "And when I went in as part of the car team, we were working on a kind of Twisted Metal game (it wasn't my idea). And the first thing [Miyamoto] said was, 'why would you put guns on cars? Don't cars crash into each other? Isn't that what they do?

:lol:

Either Sony or Nintendo they help their developers though Nintendo is a little harsh when you aren't going in the correct direction but the game will be usually a quality title when it releases.

Only thing about Nintendo though...

I never really hear anything about their developer Studios. It's almost like they are hidden from sight....so how are we to know if they are treated well or not?

Can you post a link to support that claim? Because i honestly think Gears3 does look at least as good as Killzone3 and Uncharted3 aswell.

PAL360

Can you post a link to you playing Gears 3 to support your claim? ;)

Doesn't the PS3 version also support mods?iammason

It might.

No one really knows all the details of PS3's "Steamworks" yet or all of everything Valve is going to do with the PS3.

But yeah, it might.

Valve has said that they want PC's and PS3 to play together online, so it can suggest that their might be some mod support to both platforms considering the nature of Portal to begin with.

Don't know the difference between level loading and cell streaming based memory management models I see. Well that's your problem, not mine.

Have a good one all.

Doesn't matter one way or the other....

Those games I just mentioned (and many more) run on Consoles....period.

In fact, they run better on consoles vs low end PC's.

Merry Christmas to everyone :)

For a millionth time steam is not coming on PS3 only steamworks 512mb of ram is System Ram and graphics ram. Any decent pc nowdays have 4gb of Ram and 512mb of graphics Ram Also you think opimizations and low overhead can make up for 2-3gb of Ram? All those games have 1gb Ram of minimum requirements so if anything a console can be compared to a Pc with 1gb of ram Also opimizations wont turn that 7800gt to a gtx460. As a fact all those games you listed run at 720p or lower at your console with 30fps while my humble 8800gt can run them at 1080p and some of them like ME and Batman i'm hitting 60fps with a 3year old 8800gt. So no optimization will take you that far you cant compete with something 2,3,4,5x or even more powerfulladamosmaki

Ok...if it makes you happy, Steamworks....whatever.

But it's coming to the PS3 and PC and PS3 users will play together.

Btw...DC UNIVERSE has a minimum of 2GB of ram.

while were at it, So does MEDAL OF HONOR, ASSASSIN'S Creed 2, BATTLEFIELD BAD COMPANY 2.

If it helps anyone feel better, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit only takes 1.5GB of PC ram :)
