Ego Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Edit Hide Delete Posted August 26, 2009 Actually, I'm quite sure it still happens a lot. GTA IV for example was upscaled from 640p, the Xbox version was running on 720. You should also check out the Eurogamer comparisons. They compare (or used to compare) each game on techs, framerates and visuals. I guess the problem is a lot of the games are being developed on 360 and then ported. That job tends to look rushed.

The fact that you program (web-based stuff, yeah, whole different world than compiling code for a game console) astounds me that you couldn't work that out on your own.

karmakramer Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Joyrex, watch this video and think about what you are doing... think about Sony and all the big CEO's sitting up at the top of a sky-scraper, while you sit at your house in Texas and promote their products, so they can make more money and you can... feel better about your video game console? I understand you are a fan, but defending poorly designed hardware (power doesn't mean much, ask Carmack) and criticizing the software developers for not "figuring it out," -- is essentially working for the man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDW_Hj2K0wo Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/48251-xbox-360-is-of-a-good-price/page/6/#findComment-1110366 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yes, of course - but it boils down to each dev team's skill levels, and how they architect their application (in this case, a game engine) and to what hardware it's suited for. Your argument would hold water if it weren't for the fact that games like Killzone 2, Uncharted 2: Among Theives, Metal Gear Solid 4, Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, etc. weren't all well-programmed games, and a showcase of what kind of power the PS3 has, when utilized correctly. The PS2 was initially criticized for being "hard to program for" since everyone was used to PS1/Dreamcast coding. After a few years, those kind of complaints trailed off as developers were able to learn the hardware and utilize it's features. The fact that Terminal Reality, the developers behind the Ghostbusters game, have a very limited list of games they've made, and this being their first PS3 game, I'm glad they did the responsible thing and released a patch to bring the PS3 version up to parity with the 360 version.
