For minecraft -.-

No really fix that ****. The Xbox has even a better resolution with less power. Only because you svck at programming for the PS3 architecture.

Perhaps if Sony made a smart technical decision and pooled their CPU power into one big pot instead of spreading it across the four corners of the Earth.

^ Yea, this is true. On paper the PS3 is great, but everyone seems to forget this is on paper. They decided to go with an architecture no one knows how to write for (even sony), and then the fans complain when their game doesnt look as good as the Xbox, which uses the same architecture as everyone else.

Yes, PS3 games can look good... when you write for ONLY the ps3. Even then, its nothing amazing.

Sony needs to L2Design and use a pc-style CPU for their next console.

PS3 version looks great, one of the best looking games on PS3 at the moment.
We see an Xbox 360 advantage in scenarios where graphics processing is taking centre stage, but in situations where the CPU is really being stressed (for example, during combat) performance seems to hold up better on the PlayStation 3 version of the game.

I'm a PC gamer at heart, but i get way more use out of my PS3 than i do my Xbox. The xbox just collects dust.

I take it you haven't played God of War III, Uncharted, Killzone, LPB, or basically any PS3 exclusive? Yeah, plenty of dev. studios know how to program for the PS3. When a game is designed from the ground up to be mult-plat, however, it's programmed with PC/360 architecture then ported (poorly) to the PS3.

As far as nothing amazing, again, you haven't played GoW III. GoW III smokes almost any game you can put it up against graphically, including the PC v. of Crysis 2.

Wanna know why the PS3 resolution is lower?
IT HAS 256MB OF RAM. How much RAM is my Firefox using now? 150MB.

Crytek had to convert a relatively HUGE 14MB of the GPU RAM into standard RAM, just so the game could work. In effect, they had to lower the resolution so the PS3 could handle the physics/AI/etc.

You don't understand a thing. Stop whinging.

Sorry, Killzone 2 is one of the best looking dedicated console shooters ever. No 360 game can hold a candle to it.

You are a retard. The ps3 has 512mb of ram w/256 of gddr3 for the gpu and 256mb of it xdr to be exact for the cell. The xdr is also more powerful than gddr3 ram as well. Do know your facts before posting.
