People around here don't like to hear that, but it's true. What happened to the days when the PS3 was supposed to blow the 360 away? We're to settle for being "on par" now?

Anyway, these things always "look" on par, but then someone puts them under a microscope and one is invariably better than the other. Not in any way that's even remotely visible to the human eye, but people still like to make a big deal about it.

DA_SHREDDER - 363 days 23 hours ago

You people shouldn't get worked up about this. 2009 will be the year that the ps3 sets itself apart from its 360 counterparts. Just look at killzone 2. Makes me wonder why all devs put out the crap they have before? Ive yet to see a 360 exclusive actually be better then multiplat games. The best games on the 360 are multiplat, but they do play better on the 360. Thats why I bought my 360. I can't imagine playing cod with out xbox live.

Ju - 363 days 23 hours ago

Unless they use a PS3 specific render pipeline (deferred rendering, e.g.), multiplatforms will never "blow away" 360 version. If they manage to really use a specific PS3 renderer and still make the game multiplatform, this might change. But it still leaves the political problem. I would guess MS could cut support pretty badly, if they'd favor one platform (and Sony would, too, if they go the other route).

I could imagine, though, because in 2009 PS3 exclusives will use this tech a bit more (see, e.g. GoW3, UC2, and others), and the knowledge becomes widely available to 3rd parties, in the long run, PS3 version could become much better over time.

Last gen, there were plenty of multiplat games that excelled on the Xbox(and weren't trying to make them the same); Sony didn't care and neither did Ps2 owners. If games looked better on PS3 than 360 Allen Greetard would personally kill the devs with an army of 360 fanboys. And since we haven't seen it yet, we know no dev is willing to chance it.

See here the problem with you. #1 your a pathetic fanboy who thinks the PS3 has no games like all 360 fanboys you live in the past and in denial because you know dam well the PS3 is bringing out games you only wish would go multi-plat so you can keep up with this PS3 has no games BS!!!

#2 You'll defend your faulty system till you die believing that because M$ will replace your RROD system it's ok to allow a company to get away with murder as long as you don't have to pay for it in the end.

#3 Multiplat games are now both on par with looks and game play, only a fanboy with there special fanboy super goggles can point out a missed pixel or shoddy frame rate on any game as of late don't kid yourself with the BS that spreads from your mouth you sound like PP.

"I tried resistance and I hate FPS that feel so twitchy, it's hard to explain but I hate FPS whee the characters move at an unrealistic speeds( like Far Cry 2). I guess it's back to COD!!"

Lets break this sentence down to see how much of a Rtard you really are let start with your first part of your quote

"I tried resistance and I hate FPS that feel so twitchy"

and now lets get the last part to see why your a moron

"I guess it's back to COD!!"

I just bought a PS3 because I missed allot of great games from the PS3 I enjoyed the games I had on the 360 but right now I'm bored with it and it will collect dust for a while until Ninja Blade comes out being the only game I'm interested unless they show something else soon most of the games this yoear im looking forward to are on the PS3 being that M$ only interest is money and trying to secure DLC and exclusive demos instead of investing in new IP's or even new developing up in coming companys to bring the next WOW game to talk about. I'm a fan of Sony but not a fanboy I believe that M$ has great games but will admit that both company's made big mistakes with the next gen systems.

Developers want their games to be identical across both platforms, but often that means dumbing down one version of the game in favor of the other. Id software conceded that they had to scale back Rage to run on the 360. Terminal Reality (Ghostbusters) have gone on record saying if they didn't have to worry about the 360 and where developing only on the PS3 they could have twice as much going on onscreen.

So why don't developers just make the best game they can on each platform? Easy, they don't want to make it seem like a slight to the other guys. If RE5 came out and ran better on the PS3, 360 owners would rightly feel slighted that they were saddled with an inferior version and would avoid the game. Just look at the Orange Box. PS3 owners turned their noses up en masse at this game which EA struggled to port. Despite still receiving excellent reviews (having finished it on the PS3, well deserved reviews as well) PS3 owners just couldn't be bothered. Why? Because the stigma was there that, even though there were receiving an excellent product it wasn't "as good" as the 360 version. I have no doubt that if it had been the other way around, 360 owners would have snubbed it as well.

By making a multiplat game superior on one console over another, you're shooting yourself in the foot. That's why multiplat games on the PS3 and 360 will remain similar while exclusives on the PS3 are clearly starting to pull in front.

"Developers want both games to be identical"

Really?
Is that why all multiplats looked better on Gamecube and Xbox last gen?
Is that why at first multiplats were looking better on 360 and devs didn't give a crap?

Truth is, there on par cause the technology is on par. A publishing company doesn't give a crap if you liked a game or not, cause they're gonna publish another game in a couple of months. And if you didn't like that one they're gonna publish another and another, till you eventually give them your money. That whole "wanting to make versions identical" is bullsh!t. Stupid quota meeting, stock price driven, public relations spinning corporate bullsh!t. If a dev can't make a certain game on a certain platform then they either don't make it or dumb it down, plain and simple. Shooting yourself in the foot would be not taking advantage of certain tech by not making it exclusive, not impresing anybody, and missing out on excusivity royalties.

Wasn't that the point of MGS and Killzone being exclusive?
Because they couldn't be duplicated anywhere else?

If PS1, 2, and 3 were all programmed the same way I would agree with you, but coding for the PS3 is completely different than it's two predecessors.Capcom has had no head start through their previous generations with Sony. They have to/had to learn to code for the cell from the ground up like other developers.

Oh look an immature insult ~ that's #1...reported. But on to your misinformation & spin, shall we?

"Fanboys like you claimed it would leave the 360 in the dust within 2 years after its launch. What happened? Looks like your hype and spin FAILED just like Sonys with the PS3."

Um, I don't remember EVER saying ANYTHING like that. So there you go people ~ ACTUAL proof you are trying to put statements into my mouth of which I NEVER said. ~ that's #2...OH and the "fanboy" comment is another violation of the rules so that's #3 but to what I don't see is an answer to the question I proposed to begin with about the trend of the sales ACTUALLY being better in a shorter amount of time?..I know why. You won't admit being proved wrong or acknowledging the little bit of factual information. On to the next portion we go!

"2 years now and you're still suckin on bot dust.......how do we taste?"

Aww look more immature drivel ~ that's #4. what's the matter? Did you learn some new "big boy" type "disses" on LIVE! and now you think you are a man?...Try holding an adult conversation next time as when you act like that it doesn't bode well for your "point".

"And then you mention the Wii. We're talking HD consoles here,not gimmicky consoles for grandmothers."

So says you not being able to acknowledge the REAL TRUTH of the state of console sales currently...my guess is your immature bias is not allowing you to hold a rational proper conversation along without any comprehension of being open minded to reasonable facts.

All I see is desperation, insults and consistent misinformation...as usual. But go ahead and beleive what you want to. Some of us can see the bigger picture much more clearly with an open view.

Another personal insult huh SFCP? Anyway, on with the show...With a name like yours (SFCP), you are questioning what my past posts are about?...Wow. Okay there buddy. Remember, I'm not the one with some sort of fake identity running around on N4G. ;)

But I still find it amazing how you actually think that within 2 years the PS3 is somehow supposed to be as successful as the PS2? And no, I am not implying you meant that Sony sell 130 million in that short time but seeing as how I even have to explain that it goes to show what I expect from your comprehension. But it's not even worth saying anything else since you obviously can't rationalize and have an open minded discussion.

Also contrary to what you might believe as you are sorely mistaken, I don't "hate" MS. Only their piss poor hardware that is within the 360. I might have a dislike for a game like Forza (as a perfect example) but that is not to say that I think it "sucks"...or that any number of other 360 games/features are "bad" or don't deserve their accolades (like Gears etc. & LIVE! though paying for it is BS). So I don't know where you get your info from but you are wrong. but lets see what you have to say about that.

Deadman64 - first of all that is what the RULES STATE and WHAT THEY ARE TO BE USED FOR...but you have to resort to attacking my character about something you have ABSOLUTELY no clue or idea about. Whereas on the other hand your baseless assumptions clearly shows what YOUR character is about....Insult someone you don't know anything about, without ANY knowledge about them. Really mature. /sarcasm

But since you "think" you know everything about me would you continue to say the same kind of comment that I'm an "internet nerd crying" after being shown some of the info below? Or will you continue in a weak attempt to try and "diss" me or attack my character in some poor way? Lets see if you are man enough to admit you where wrong or if you ***** out like an immature child and continue down the same path as evident from before? I know where my money is at ;) lets see if you prove me wrong...

Judderman, I have both consoles and everything I have seen on both consoles makes me think that they are basically equal. Xbox 360 tends to have better-looking multiplatform games and the PS3 has a few exclusives that look as good or better than anything on the 360. But the differences are relatively minor and I think they are basically equal. Certainly not the large difference that we saw between multiplats on the PS2 and Xbox.
