[QUOTE="virtuas"]ANOTHER MULTIPLAT PROVING THAT PS3 IS A BETTER PLATFORM FOR GAMESlolkie_81

Doesn't it say "for once" right in the review?

Well yeah, most multiplat games look identical :)

If there is a trend of ps3 multiplat games looking better, I might start believing the ps3 is more powerful. I have always thought they were equal.

[QUOTE="virtuas"]ANOTHER MULTIPLAT PROVING THAT PS3 IS A BETTER PLATFORM FOR GAMESAl3x_n90

the proof is from 'PLAY - The UK's longest running PlayStation Magazine'. What a good source.

So a playstation magazine as said it looks better?? :lol:

I think we will find out from gametrailers in a weeks time which is bettter.....

It was the only source...anyway we'll find out indeed :P anyway they said it looks better when it's in HD, 720p and up and GT's HD vids aren't of that high rez, i would buy the game for both systems but i don't have enough money :P

I put 100's of hours into the other GTA games, and i played the very first ones a lot too, but i'm just not enjoying GTA 4 at all. I can't even bring myself to finish it.

I just don't find it fun.

I really feel sorry for Cows

If Microsoft see an exclusive they want on another system they stop at nothing to get it

Sony just act like they dont want it and keep pumping out crappy first/second party games

lol I can almost agree, althought I think interview was kinda bound to fail. It's like some other poster said, if he said he would like Gears, Sony would be bashed for looking desperate. If he said bullet to the head... well... yeah, lol.

But yeah, and what's worse than them acting like they dont care is when they keep pumping out first and second party games and promote them forever and act as if they dont even have multiplat games on the system. I mean, I've seen LBP commercials since last Christmas and the game hasnt even come out yet, but hardly saw any Sony marketing for GTAIV. Kinda crazy. Oh, and even with MGS4. The only tv ad I've seen for it includes GT5P and LBP. WTF? It's like they're saying, "Here, buy this game worthy of a multimillion dollar campaign but we're going to be cheap and only include 5 seconds of it into this 30 second commercials with LBP and GT5P."

/rant.

It's kind of a good strategy though. Let Microsoft do your advertising for you. You would see 100 NHL 08 commercials an hour here in Canada, lots of COD4, GTA4 ones, MS spent all this money marketing them and in the end, people bought them for whichever console they owned or bought the one they were predisposed to. I don't think anyone is watching commercials going "oh I need a 360 to play GTA". In the end it's free marketing for games they don't really need to market anyway.

They should have been much more aggressive with MGS4, I agree, because this game really delivers the goods and holds up to scrutiny.

In defense of their marketing with LBP, I will give them carte blanche. LBP doing well means a lot for the industry, not just PS3, and as far as I'm concerned they can do whatever it takes to get this one to as many people as possible. If LBP fails I might just quit gaming for life, and not because it's an exclusive or some nonsense. If LBP fails and Cooking Mama turns a profit gaming as we know it is done for.

This is not about Gears 2. Original Gears, calm down.

When is the last time anyone actually played GeOW? How could you help but notice Marcus' square neck, his jaggy elbow, the persistent meshy layer of "static" all over everything that the Unreal Engine brings to every small texture (UT3 was the worst for it). How about the occasional screen tears and framerate dips? The textures and the way light hits them are what give people a boner, but beyond that the technical side of it looks pretty dated right now.

I have been mentioning Gears as still in contention for graphics champ (behind Uncharted and Metal Gear) as well, but I recommend to anyone doing the same that you dust the game off and pop it in. It's really not so impressive now. It still holds up pretty nicely in screenshots, but playing the actual game again, I was less than bowled over by how good it looks. It has finally shown it's age, and if you are still touting it as console graphics champ, you might want to play it again.

Those character models just don't hold weight anymore. It looks like a Something About Mary accident took place in his hair.

Don't take this as some kind of slam at the game (or at Gears 2, Gears 2 will OWN), I just think it needs to stop being mentioned for it's graphics since it truly is behind the times now. To be fair, I played Uncharted again and don't feel that it measures up to Metal Gear at all. There are a lot of minor flaws and technical hiccups that only became apparent after I played something as technically proficient and polished as MGS4.

R1 model looks better imo.

And gears2 looks to be real jaggie.

are you kidding? :| i saw resistance running in the shop and i swore it was a ps2 game :|. whereas gears 1 was a complete graphical snogging. and i ifrst saw gears after i saw resistance :|. safe to say a 2006 game is still in debate as the console graphics king, what does that tell you? :roll:
