EA: RA3 looks and plays better on PS3

Vistrix - 334 days 6 hours ago

It will never match it because thats up to the developers.

They could choose to enable support for mouse and keyboard if they wish, they could choose to add full modding support if they wish.

Most developers choose to ignore these PS3 features though.

full modding support? not sure if your aware but most pc mods are made by the fans. Your asking alot if you think the fans are going to make a ps3 port of their mod.

ps2 has proved that keyboards won't work on consoles. until it's proven otherwise. pc is the platform of choice for RTS both control and graphics wise.

Those that wanted this game and did not have a 360 bought it for their PC's, the best possible platform for this game.

the problem sstill is that they try to make a pc rts on consoles instead of reworking and coming up with a new way of controlls and camera to fit a controller.

Consoles can do pretty much everything that pc games do in terms of games. USB enables pretty much every single controller you will ever want to plug in your system. if you like using mouse and keyboard its just matter of the game supporting it.

Mods are a bit complicated expecialy if you look at MS who is a bit over protective when it comes to this subject (they have their reasons tough)
but Unreal 3 pretty much showed that Consoles can handle mods pretty well.
too bad that its still the only game to actualy make it bossible.

It would be a new challenge for the modders too to make their mod work on Pc and then make it work on consoles. Definetly a worthy skill if your aiming to become a developer.

I disagreed with you on 1 count. The FragFX controller for the PS3 will give you the controls of the mouse. If EA considered the alternate use of the FragFX it will come close to that of the PC.
Just using that on FPS I ALMOST get the same feel as using a mouse and gaming keypads.

badz149 - 334 days 5 hours ago

it should! the game is coming out the latest among all and they need to justify the delay with whatever thing they have to make people buy it! the PS3 natively support mouse and keyboard, so why don't you use that instead, EA? afraid of something or just plain ignorance?

and gta4
K for the disagreeérs
The ps3 version of gta4 is in lower resulution, and uses motion blur to compensate.
Technically that means the ps3 version of gta4 is inferior, however before gta4 went retail it was said the ps3 version would be superior.

Maybe trough your eyes the ps3 version looks better, but then again, ive heard a lot of people claim that gta ps3 has awesome AA, while in fact it got no AA, it got motion blur.

@ godmoney and foxgod. i must respectfully disagree with both of you. i have played both bioshock and gta4 completely through on both systems (bioshock multiple times). there is nothing that stands out as being better visually in either game on either system. granted, they did tell us that the PS3 version of bioshock would be better looking and it really isn't which is disappointing. but overall, outside of a few textures here and there, both versions look and play the same to me. but hey, that's just my opinion.

Just to clarify, the PS3 version DOES have AA, but it's that weird type of Quincunx AA that most PS3 games have. Quincunx makes for a smoother-looking image, but in a lot of cases it can end up softening it (unfortunately).

Foxgod - 334 days 4 hours ago

True, its Quincunx AA your right about that.
But i think AA looks ways better, and technically it is better.

Ps3fans always seem to expect a flamewar when something negative is said about the 360.

However the worst flamewars occur when something bad is said about the ps3.... Nobody cares when someone badmouth's the 360.

Actually its worse when Xbox fanboys think they have a better version of something and the whole thing turns into a bragging pissing contest. I was just going to say, where are all the PS3 owners bragging. There aent any. We're just happy our version is good, not rubbing in that its better. If it was reverse you'd have a hundred xboxers telling us what a waste of $600.

It always seems worse because the other people are the ones doing it. To someone like me, who has no console preference either way, you're all incredibly c*nty when something like this is said.

TheForgotten0ne - 334 days 5 hours ago

Yeah, it's true.

I have to ask, why do they make them for console anyways?
RTS is for the computer, it's where it belong. : (

Most of the actual audience isn't going to use it, so it's pretty much a waste of developers time.

And in other news, Halo wars will look and play better, and sell more and get higher reviews, then C&C3.

I don't think so, just face it. Personally i think the Xbox has reached it's peak in 2008, it's about time the Xbox moved over so PS3 can take gamers to new heights.

@ fox

People like you encourage micro$haft to downgrade this generation of games. How does it feel to know you are contributing to the lack of innovation and groundbreaking games? All 360 owners should be proud of such a historical achievement.

Foxgod - 334 days 4 hours ago

Wow, you people based that all on my comment that Halo wars will be better ?

No wonder shrinks get payed so much these days.

Oh and ontopic, Halo wars is supposed to do the same for RTS games, that Halo did for shooters, without Halo there wouldnt even be a game called Killzone by now.
So MS does plenty of innovation.

Xbots have been rubbing our faces in to for the past 2 years, it's time for them to eat a little now. Your going to see more stories along these lines from now on.

The PS3 has technology that will see it through the next few years, that was Sony's "long term plan" and Xbox owners will see that. The Xbox is already looking tired with it's Dvd drive and the processor being pushed to the limit already, hence with all the over heating problems.

You guys sure do get excited over old Xbox 360 games, but when 360 gets a superior version on an older PS3 game (VF5) its because developers had more time.. right?
