How much percent of the PS3's gaming capabilities do you thing are being used?!

Do you guys even know how games are developed? ...No well, their is no such thing as a 'percentage meter' games, Sony did nuthing but pick that number out of mid air just to have something convince users that their games will be better looking than opposing companies.

Game engines are used to create games and they have in built CPU heat meters and FPS rate meters that they can keep an eye on when in development and they normaly stop adding newer meshes or updated textures when it hits a certain mark. The games will look better but not to the extent of people seem to think.

Cryisis is about 3 times graphicaly superior to Haze and that game is currently pushing all next gen consoles to their peak. If I wear to make the random gues using a daft idea of percentages I would have to say 60%, because I guarentee future games for consoles would only look almost twices as good.

Now that I look, Sadikovic said it far better than I did.

The Lair head said that he thinks they're touching about 50% of the ps3 with that game.

That's such a broad statement to make though. Distilling the whole games performance down to a percentage is ridiculous(even on a purely technical level*) What's going on inside your box is far, far more complicated than applying any one number.

* Much less judging a game's artistic merits by saying it's an 8.7

P.S. I didn't take the time to read all 4 pages of comments in this thread. If someone already mentioned that Lair interview, well then I'm sorry.
