Until a PS3 game actually looks as good as GeOW, PS3 is losing the graphics war

[QUOTE="Mass_Effect"]Motorstorm looks better than GeOWBioEffect

No, I have both games, I've played both on a 46" HDTV; and Motorstorm looks better imo. But GeOW is an overall better game

Thats because there was no other next gen console out when the xbox 360 was out 5 months from launch. This is why PDZ got the score it has, because since the xbox 360 was the only next gen console out, it was given slack and rated a 9.0. People dont understand, that the only reason ps3 games are being judged and rated so hard is due to competition that is out already. For example if ps3 was the first to launch and the games that came out for it like RFOM and Motorstorm, Virtua Fighter 5, Oblivion, and Cod3 which are all out after 5 months of the ps3 launch, all these games would have scored an AAA just because there was no competition out at the time and because people wouldve been wowed at these games, but since the xbox 360 has been out a year ahead, and has a pretty good library of games and GEOW as the graphical king for its time, it has set the bar high and now everyone judges a ps3 game by does it look better then GEOW or Mass Effect? And this is why games like RFOM or Motorstorm or Virtual Fighter even with the graphics looking great, people will judge it to GEOW and be like, still doesnt come close to GEOW and is why it looks crap to there eyes when in reality, if u play RFOM and Motorstorm and Virtua Fighter on a HDTV, u will see that they are very beautiful games. Anyways I love my xbox 360 and my ps3 but to say the ps3 games dont look that good is just nonesense, and keep in mind, Motorstorm and RFOM dont even use the Unreal Engine 3, and still are beautiful games, taking advantage of the system, which is very impressive for a system dat has only been out for 5 months. Till den game on. :)

They didn't even come close to what they promised and, now, people find their right to laugh their asses off about it. Consider it unfair, sure, whatever you want, but don't try to defend this crap. They didn't deliver, MS did, and now they're getting what they deserve.

I think all of us half-expected the PS3 to set the "graphical standard" with one of their games (even after five months of life), but they didn't, MS did, and shocking as it may seem, it'll be very hard to get the same "wow" as GeOW did. Certain games may eventually look better than Gears, but chances are the same "wow" won't be there.

Hold Gears of War up against any other game that came out before it, and Gears will still look amazing. Hold Gears against a newer game that looks better and, well, the newer game will just look good. That is all.

It runs UE07... :| The same engine Gears is running on... So PS3 can do Gears graphics.yoshi_64

Yes, because I'm sure a graphics rendering engine comes with a specified texture resolution that you can't change, tells you you have to use certain types of pixel and vertex shaders, and a specific number of them, and it forces you to program it to push a fixed number of polygons.

XBox can run Source, but that doesn't mean XBox Half Life 2 looks as good as PC Half Life 2, and PC Episode 1 looks even better than that.

The same applies to Unreal Engine 3. Just because UT07 runs on PS3, doesn't mean it makes as good use of Unreal Engine 3 as Gears of War does. Highlights made to point out mix ups between UT07 and UE3.

I dislike the grayness in gears of war.. makes the game feel abit drab..Dahaka-UK

Yeah I don't really like the look of Gears of War but I think it's clear the PS3 is not as powerful as Sony lead us to believe. At best it will probably be a little bit more powerful than the 360 and even that doesn't seem to be certain anymore.

Totally agree, people dont understand this because they need to take off those fanboy goggles. Motorstorm graphics look real life if u ask me, while playing it on my 42 inch LCD and I just sit there and look at the surroundings of the game and say wow, if this game didnt even scratch the surface with what the ps3 is capable of, u have to be impressed. Yes GEOW was a better game but, in my opinion motorstorm looks better and more realistic.

The topic was that until the PS3 shows graphics better than GeOW then its losing.

Fair deal. Im going to ignore whatever kind of people said "Motorstorm" (after laughing) and then point out that despite the obvious "capability" of the PS3 to produce better graphics it has not produced any such thing as of this current moment, in comparison to GeOW.

The original topic was not about capability, but about graphics of the current moment. Deal with the present, not the future in other words. At this current moment, Gears looks better. Personally, despite arguments that Motorstorm looks more realistic, im of the opinion that this is because Gears is based in the post-apocalyptic future, where as Motorstorm is based a more tame setting. Of course its going to look more realistic, its matter of setting there, and the graphics in Gears are better considering this.

Motorstorm does look better than GeOW imo. Play both and you'll most likely agree

:lol: @ cow DAMAGE CONTROL

PS3 games should have immediately been better than x360 if the PS3 was so superior to the x360. The Xbox displayed its superiority on day one with Halo.

Damage Control? And on day one tell me a game on the xbox 360 that displays superiority? U dont seem to understand that I have both systems and can tell u now, that games that are out for the ps3 even launch titles such as RFOM, look better then games coming out for the xbox 360 now. I have a 42 inch LCD flatscreen and when I play rainbow six vegas, splinter cell, 99 nights, madden 2007, pdz, all these games dont even look that great. I will admit though geow looks great but that is the only game that has wowed me on my xbox 360.

On my ps3 on the other hand, RFOM, Motorstorm, Virtua Fighter 5, Cod3, and Oblivion look beautiful on my screen, I dunno or is it just my tv or the hdmi cord I bought for 60 bux, but I have played all these games on my lcd and the ps3 games look alot better then most of my xbox 360 games. For example, anyone who has seen rainbow six vegas, would say it looks pretty good using the unreal engine 3 but im being honest here, RFOM looks alot better then Rainbow Six Vegas and it runs smoother then rainbow six vegas online, but u fanboys wouldnt believe me because u dont own a ps3. All I can say is I own both systems and in my opinion, for a system that has only been out for 5 months, I am more impressed with my ps3 then I am with my xbox 360, but right now the xbox 360 just has more variety of games, but I know ps3 has alot of great games on the way so I will be enjoying both worlds while u fanboys just keep enjoying one machine, and missing out on the great exclusives on the others. Oh and im still waiting for more wii's to ship out so I can buy one to play zelda. Till den game on. :)

UNTIL 360 ACTUALLY HAS A GAME WITH AF TEXTURE FILTERING AN EFFECT WHICH A GEFORCE 2 CAN DO WITH LITTLE IF ANY HIT ON PERFORMACE THEN I WILL BE IMPRESSED. AND WHEN 360 RUNS A GAME LIKE GEARS WITH A FRAMERATE THATS AS SOLID AS RESISTANCE ON PS3 THEN ILL REALLY BE IMPRESSED :|mrboo15

what's going on? afraid of the last multi-plats that are looking better on the ps3...?

but you're right, to be better than the 360, the PS3 must surpass it's maximun (at the moment), it's so obvious you even didn't have to create a whole thread about it.

That's funny. I too own the PS360 (PSN ID: LosDaddie) and nothing on the PS3 can touch Gears of War. Nothing.

RFoM does look great, but even RS: V looks better. I give you that RFoM online is really fun, but the lack of people using mics is horrible. And you brought up COD3?? :lol:  It's a known fact that COD3 is superior on the x360. VF5 is yawn-fest because of no online. Motorstorm is fun though. I enjoyed the rental.

I own all 3 consoles, and the PS3 is the least impressive of them all. My PS3 gets more use as a blu-ray player than a game machine. The x360 is where the action is at.

It's all cows have to hang on.

The x360 owned the PS3 versions for VT3, NBA Street, and Def Jam

Funny how all the cows bringing up Motorstorm conviently forget it scored a flopping 7.9 while Gears of War scored a 9.6 & GOTY. geist117

until i see a x360 games that actualy looks like geow with 16 players on screen at once which is still much less than 40 players than in resistance the x360 is still losing the graphics war.

Didn't the GS PS3 Oblivion review state that it has better graphics, better framerates, and better loading times? That says something doesnt it?flazzle

yes it did but lemms ignore that.

soo how many x360's did ms sell this week in japan? 10 or 11 units?  i would have to say that 12 units would be considered a success.

soo textures are everything? that is all i see in geow. Everything else like physics, animation, physics, etc are from last-gen.

[QUOTE="flazzle"]Didn't the GS PS3 Oblivion review state that it has better graphics, better framerates, and better loading times? That says something doesnt it?geist117

Agreed.

Don't tell cows that NBA Street and VT3 had better graphics on the x360.

[QUOTE="flazzle"]Didn't the GS PS3 Oblivion review state that it has better graphics, better framerates, and better loading times? That says something doesnt it?wehttam16

extra year to perfect it? lol. NO!

ps3 wasnt released at the same time with x360, ur logic fails.

both versions of the game came out exacly 4 months after the consoles were released. They didnt have to perfect anything, they just ported the game over to ps3 and enabled higher AF, textures, fps cuz ps3 has better hardware.

And dont forget that final ps3 dev kits werent out until september of last year.

when you enable 16af and 4xaa in ur pc games you dont perfect the game engine, lol. All you do is force it by hardware.
