that EA had stated that the current set of release games for the ps3 actually only use 10% of the ps3's power which is a good sign. so i really like the comparisons done on the Gamespot cuz it shows that games like nfs carbon running at 10% power on the ps3 and probably at least half power on the 360 lol

Yeah PSM also said this

http://www.gamesradar.com/us/ps3/game/news/article.jsp?sectionId=1006&articleId=2007013115218218019&releaseId=20060314115917309058



PlayStation-centric US magazine PSM has put PS3 and Xbox 360 through a series of rigorous tests in a "definitive head-to-head comparison," and has come out with what must be a surprising result for subscribers: the next-gen console war is a dead heat.

PSM offers a balanced case for pledging your allegiance to either platform, even roping in the editor-in-chief of the US Official Xbox Magazine to defend Xbox 360. Although, with one section pointing out that "PS3 wins if... You're a loner who doesn't plan to use community features much," it seems the barbed comments have been reserved for PS3.

After admitting that "360 is more impressive [in terms of having 'big' games]" and the Xbox interface "offers a lot more functionality than PS3's," we had to double check the flannel panel to make sure that Peter Moore hadn't sneaked a spot as the month's special guest writer

Yeah I would say PSM is junk.  Just like OXM.

yes EA admitted that their games were using around 10--20% of ps3's power.........however i doubt that too...........i believe it is 5% at best.

as for RFOM.............insomniac calimed that they were using just 2 spes and the PPE.............read palybeyond's forums for that article.

NINJA THEORY confirmed that CELL was leaps and bounds ahead of the latest pc cores(including quad cores).......read 1up for that........they believe ps3 's potential is virtually unlimited.

RAPIDMIND and iSUPPLY both tested the ps3 against the supercomputers of the late nineties.

they termed ps3s as a supercomputer with the price of a pc.

yeah but they did this comparision with games that were developed FOR the 360 and ported to the ps3. so that means that a system that has only been out for 3 months is just as good if not better then a system that has been out for over a year. So imagine what we will see when they do this comparison again next year.

10% of the PS3's power. Whatever If they are only using 10% of the power, than the most they'll ever use is like 30%.

i know it's off topic...but we use all of our brain. That's just a myth. do an internet search for brodmann's map if you don't believe me.

Out of all the dev companiest EA games look the worst. There's not bad. Just have issues. I'm mean, we already know what the PS3 can do when a dev spends time on it (RFOM, Motorstorm). Why can't EA do the same or at least get close to RFOM? In 1-2 years I'd expect EA to make their games to the level of RFOM since GoW3, KZ, RFOM2, FFXIII will surpass what's been done up till now.

 I dont think developer have even use half the power of the xbox 360 it only bing out a year and few month i say that developer are using about 20% to 30% of the ps3 power

GEARS OF WAR maxes x360s power........read epic's blogs.

LOST PLANET was restrianed due to power limitations on x360........the game is very slow indeed.

No ingame  physics in GEOW.

RIDGE RACER 7 at 1080p at 60fps .....only possible on ps3.......how much power is it using

http://www.pro-g.co.uk/news/30-10-2006-3931.html

LAIR is only posssible on ps3.........the devs would at best use 50% of ps3's power.

read ign for proof

MGS4 only possible on ps3.......althougfh a watered down x360 version is possible too.

DMC 4 only posssible on ps3.

none of the above games could use more than 50% of ps3's power..........although 20--30% is more likely.

HEAVENLY SWORD uses a fraction of CELL's power according to NINJA THEORy

Not true. Only a few devs ever max out the power of any console, but devs like Square Enix will come pretty close... and by the end of the console's cycle there will be a few devs that are coming pretty close to maxing it out.

i am not saying they are on par with KOJIMA/SQUARE but they are talented nontheless

These are ways to get you to buy a PS3 and their games.  Yeah Epic said Gears is maxing out the 360 and then after the game released for a month or 2 they stated that their is much more power.  EA well they just still using last gens power on all games.  The only people that say a game can be done on one system only are the only ones that say anything like that.  But wait when they port they will change their word.

Again, if the topic involves a comparison of the Ps3 with another console, it belongs in SW.
