Most console games run at 1280x720 with graphical detail settings in the medium range. A Radeon 3870/Geforce 8800GT and anything above that will easily produce better visuals.

If you don't plan on sending it in or fixing it just let me know where I can send the self-addressed, stamped package. :D

Look for Lawdawg's method.

So to solidify your claim you post a list of yearly sports rehashes, music games and Japanese titles. Not really making a strong case there. EA has already stated they are going to go in a different direction with Madden and sports titles, presumably an online style like Battlefield Heroes. Music games require special peripherals which is better suited for a console. And PC gaming in Japan is a fraction of what it is in Europe and the US.

It's not all about the hardware being cheap. Development costs are cheaper because of the weaker hardware.

It really doesn't matter. At the end of the day the PS3 is similar to a GeForce 7800 and the Xbox 360 is based around the X1900 series.

Yeah Crysis needs more Michael Bay scripted moments that make you scream OMGWTF. In fact forget the option to tackle the objectives how you choose. I want linear paths blocked by stacks of crates and boxes. :roll:

I'm tired of the virtual paintball rooms to be honest. 6 hour shooter campaigns with tacked on multiplayer. Even co-op isn't creative. Same campaign all over again.

A decent JRPG on consoles
