Could PS3 handle Mass Effect?

[QUOTE="KeyWii"][QUOTE="mtradr43"][QUOTE="the-very-best"]GT:HD, HS, and FFXIII all look better than Mass Effect I think so I'd be surprised if the console couldn't handle the game.the-very-best

ps3 is more powerful than the 360..look up the specsaeminjnb2006

if it is used right.

Specs mean NOTHING, we all know that, mind to explain how ATI GPU's with HALF the pipelines outperformed Nvidia ones with double ?

PS3 on paper is a tad more powerfull in NUMBERS, in efficiency and actual USE of those numbersm it fails miserably due to the afterthough GPU that is less than a 7800GTX on pc

And FF13 looks 2 generations behind Mass Effect, where are the shaders, the huge detailed environments ? i do not see them

Nah mass effect looks better than gears = ps3 cant handle gears = answer to your question = no it cant = /thread.Shadow_Elite192

Try the net, here is the key words that make 360 1000 times more efficient

Unified ram (no texture fetches)

EDRAM (free AA and Z-buffering)

Unified shaders (used 100%, never stall, PS3 ones used in 50-60% average)

Shader Model well above SM3.0 (lower than DX10, but wider than SM3.0)

Memory export (direct access to the CPU, for geometry/physics proccessing)

3 REAL CPU's, and 6 threads, comparing to ONE real CPU and SPU on PS3 that stall and choke, and are only for specific tasks

See now ? 360 was created with games and cooperation of CPU-GPU in mind, PS3 was a cell machine for decoding HD videos turned to gaming machine, and at the last time the cell GPU was canned, and replaced with nvidia one, talk about AFTERTHOUGH

The Unreal 3 Engine by nature runs better on Playstation 3, because UE3 was designed for open GL graphics cards. PS3 uses Open GL, while Xbox 360 uses a modified version of DirectX 9. UE3 works fine on both, but it was designed first and foremost around open GL, so games designed for PS3 using the UE3 engine will inevitably run smoother than ones designed for Xbox 360.Timstuff

I will tell you after I see how well other Unreal 3 engine games run on the system. If UT3 runs and looks better on the 360 then I think Mass Effect could have trouble running on the PS3.

If it were made for the PS3 and not ported, I'd give it a nod. Both systems seem equal.DementedDragon

I don't think it could.
