DF Interviews Playground Games; Find out why Forza is "best-in-class."

It's funny that lems are saying Forza Horizon and Halo 4 looks amazing and possibly "graphics king", but I've seen such graphics before on PS3... So when I was playing Forza Horizon demo, I was like "meh". Nothing ground-breaking. PS3 has already done that, so the 360 is just catching up.

What the hell have lems been smoking?

Yeah, because I'm sure a lot of PS3 games run FXAA and 4x MSAA all while maintaining a consistent 30fps with no frame drops or screen tearing.

Face facts kiddo. Forza Horizon is one of the most technologically advanced console games of this gen. No racing game on the PS3 looks as good as Forza Horizon does.

[QUOTE="delta3074"][QUOTE="Jonwh18"] no contract, like what they did with bingie, sure. But Buy the devs no no no! Not because I have a hope that they will make gmes for other companies, but because of what M$ does to devs they own. You can't deny, M$'s best FP games come from contracts not owned devs. See halo 1-reach, Gears 1-3.... then look at rare :(. We don't want another rare. Also look at insomiac. Devs that make excluisves but aren't owns by a console manufacturure make the best games..... I tihnk persoanlly its because it gives the dev power to disagree and argue with the company isntead of blindly following orders.....

GamerwillzPS

Doesn't change the funny fact, that 360 was not supposed to be able to catch up!

The first 5 years of this gen were all about the 'superior power of the cell'. 360 was maxed out with Gears 1, then 2...nothing would touch PS3 exclusives, and in the future, when devs finally find how to take advantage of the power of the PS3, all multiplats would look better aswell.

Well, 7 years passed, most multiplats keep performing better on 360, even the impressive ones, and exclusives like Gears 3 and Forza 4/Horizon (and probably Halo 4), DID catch up.

This gen has been full of surprises :)

Wow, easy there fella. I'm pretty sure Wipeout HD is a PS3 exclusive, and it runs in 1080p and 60 fps

straight from eurogamer

"WipEout HD has left me agitated and dissatisfied. Before the usual suspects scamper off to post a comment, with their PS3lols at the ready, perhaps I should clarify. WipEout HD has left me agitated and dissatisfied because the crisp 1080p visuals and rock solid 60fps presentation have made me realise just how compromised the Great HD Gaming Revolution has been."

This was a game made back in 2008 btw. I would say this game is easily, at least on par with horizon's visuals....

Are you saying that Perfect Dark HD on 360 is also on par? It runs at 1080p and 60fps, after all :o

On a serious note. Wipout HD performs perfectly, but it's graphics are not at Horizon's level. Let's not forget FH is an open world game!

also the part I was pciking at was "No racing game on the PS3 looks as good as Forza Horizon does" and you were wrong. Wipeout HD is a racing game. It easily looks as good a FH does.

You are making no sense (performance =/= graphics). Again, going by your logic every game that runs at 1080p and 60fps tops the competition, despite how good the graphics and other aspects are.

It is, but it's one aspect out of many. Also i agree Wipeout does look good, but not close to many other console games. Especially this late in the gen.

[QUOTE="superclocked"][QUOTE="Jonwh18"] No, performance running at a high frame rate, and having a high resolution is a technical aspect. Wipeout still looks as good regardless, it was priased by multiplte websites for its graphics along with 1080p and 60fps.
