Mafia II Using The Illusion Engine

SuperM - 396 days 16 hours ago

Well if the engine is supposed to rival the Cry engine, then no, 360 is not going to be able to handle this one.

Great news though, cant wait to play on my Vista gaming PC.

it is going to be released for the 360, so how can you say the 360 cannot handle it??

i don't get the logic.

Oh thanks for clearing that up, my apologies to SuperM i misunderstood.

do you think this article meant "Mafia II supports DX10" and not "supports only DX10" blademask???

because I cannot see how a game being released for consoles that don't support DX10, can say it supports ONLY DX10...must be an error somewhere or am i wrong?

Neither the 360 or PS3 have DX10 support, however PS3 has Evans OPENGL support which is the successor to DX10, 360 is not slated to have this support.

First of all Directx is a graphics API by microsoft wich mainly offers pre-packed code for developers to achieve certain graphic/network/sound etc. effects the easy way, but you are bound to what dx offers you.

OpenGL on the other hand is an open plattform you can program what every you want into it. Its more work but its 100 times more flexible.

So technically Opengl > DX 10.

and no the 360 doesnt have any dx10 support, the only thing they can do is calculate certain dx10 effects via software.

You just can't make a comment without bashing the 360, can you? You are an unstoppable machine of trolling, dying for some attention little boy? We'll you'll get no more from me... *ignore*

you're joking right?

name me a 360 exclusive that looks as good as Killzone 2...no seriously give me the name of a game that looks as good as Killzone 2.

you see what I say about fanboys that refuse to see the light, we ALL know KZ2 looks better than ANY game on the 360, it's a proven fact, Uncharted is IMO looks better than 360 exclusives too, so please name me a game on the 360 library that is as amazing as Killzone 2 or uncharted.

only an idiot will fail to see that the PS3 is more powerful than the xbox 360, I am not a fanboy, i speak the truth.

Sorry buddy. It's true that most multi-platform games look better on the 360, but when you start to compare exclusives there is no contest. The PS3 has better looking exclusives.

The major problem with multi-platform devs, is that many don't yet know how to use the cell. You'll start seeing more quality as developers get more used to the PS3.

Blademask, you really are a moron. I like how every post of yours includes a subtle dig at the 360. I bought the PS3 version of Farcry 2 and had to install a 4gb file. I then went to play it at my mates house on the 360, no install and .... what???!!?! it actually looks better. I don't doubt that a HDD can aid games, but only exclusive titles will really make use of it.

Just accept the PS3 isn't the console it was said it would be. I have and I still much prefer my PS3 to my 360, but thats not to say the 360 is without its own merits.
