What System?

Post » Fri Oct 01, 2010 1:18 pm

I was wondering if anyone knows what system the gameplay demos are being played on? I noticed in the the game the blue "X" button pops up on screen indicating that it's probably the Xbox 360 but you can use those controllers for PC as well. I'm asking because the visuals are amazing so I would be surprised if it's the Xbox pulling off those graphics so smoothly.

I'm pretty sure the container city walkthrough is on the 360. If you pay attention on the loading screen in part one it has an "a" icon in the bottom right, to continue most likely, and then all the "x" button prompts. I suppose you could play this on PC with a 360 controller, but for demo purposes if they were running it on PC with a 360 controller it would be quite deceiving.

container city is a tough one because at start of video it has all the way right "exit", pretty sure most console games don't have that but maybe that's a further menu or something I don't know but that looks 360 with the A's and X's thought keep in mind might just have a 360 linked with PC dunno if it's affect display much, also likely with 360 because at weapon select its a wheel instead of a list a list seems more user friendly for pc. 2/3 things say 360 so i assume that's a 360 video. ^_^

They have done all kinds of configurations, to the point that I stopped keeping track about whats what. All 3 consoles have been used (PS3 the least), and then they mixed it up a few times by using 360 controllers on the PC version.

initial videos were done on PC with Xbox 360 controllers, I believe a couple of the latest ones were on PS3


edit: it's possible the latest demos were on PS3, no longer sure about videos, latest screenshots are PC

The later demos utilize the PS3, but they've purposely edited out the button prompts so that you do not know the difference. I don't think this will be permanent, though.

wasn't sure but I thought my buddy mentioned he played on PS3, nice thing about the latest screenshots is that my rig can handle that detail level, it'll be very interesting watching replays
