 forza is a M$ game and yeah  you could say the same about gotham but forza is  closer to M$ and no doubt will get more attention.

Umm why don't you think GT on PS3 would even get close? As far as I am concerned, the xbox 360 will have lower Shader Models, seeing as ATI has no SM 3.0 boards yet and the x360 chip might be the first to get them. Nvidia, on the flipside, already has SM 3.0 and has for two generations of their GFX chips. They also already have HDR. Since, like you said, its just lighting effects, I think the Nvidia lighting effects will be miles ahead of anything that an ATI chip can do.

I was under the impression that after all is said and done, the r500 will be better with shaders than anything nvidia has in the pipeline.

notice i said r500, im not talking about current pc cards.

wrong impression?

oh well, r500 owns all, bow to it or die   beerchug.gif

unreal blasphemer!  grr.gif

Nvidia has always had much better shadowing. They have also always had better mapping. ATI only once, yes only once, made a board that had faster shaders (and only shaders) than a Nvidia counterpart. That was the r300 aka 9700pro. This chip is also known as the chip that ATI did not design. ohmy.gif All I am saying, is that there is no doubt in my mind that the Nvidia RSX will have much better shaders. Unified shaders are only faster in theory, we will see if it is faster in real life after about a year of the console release. Based on the Xbox alone, Nvidia is the winner in my book. The effects that the xbox has are lightyears ahead of the PS2 and the Gamecube. All because of its GFX chip.

And deftech, the unreal engines are sweet, but engine alone doesnt make for a good game, I learned that one with DOOM3. tongue.gif

Kojima the fugger would not take advantage of the 360 hardware so a msg 4 comparison would be futile.

good comparisons will be splinter cells, future recons, and UT 2007.

epic will max both out so itll be interesting.

any other games from any other devs and I see them liking or disliking one of the systems.

Im just surprised a lower spec system like the gamecube (with an ATI chip installed) can produced utterly beautiful games like zelda and resident evil 4 that look better than the majority of xbox games. I guess its all about what you do with the hardware not what the hardware "can" do.........im sure the god of war devs will agree.

well xbox360 uses windows longhorn technology.... which will use direct x 10...... and xbox360 uses a modified version of Direct X..... and the r500 uses unified shading, which nvidia will implement in their next geforce (8?).... the sony playstations video card is just a geforce 7 stuck in, and a little bit faster than the geforce 7 then u can buy for your pc, and the playstation 3 will use opengl. and wont use a modified version of directx .... so doesnt that cancel out some pixel shader APIs?

i dont know much of what enhancements come with each direct x version.  you are right about the "RSX" GPU being nothing more then a over-clocked geforce 7.  and the rendering software used for the 360 (Shader Model and Direct X) is ahead of what will be used in the ps3 so that is why i dont understand why people think that the ps3 will have better rendering quality then the 360.  also, i never knew however that the ps3 used opengl.

Post by: KAGE360 on September 27, 2005, 02:08:00 PM
personally i think there is a place for each engine (source and doom3).  but its hard to compare the engines because there are a few games that are using the doom3 engine and only a couple that use source.  everything that is using the doom3 engine has a similar setting as doom 3 except for quakewars (which looks rather impressive) and the only other game i know to use the source engine is that crap vampire game (which looked like ass to me).  to me none of it matters in the end as the number 1 engine now is the unreal3 engine and we know that the 360 pushes that engine mighty nice.

While it's true that the X800 series didn't have SM 3.0, that's not the card in the 360.

Did I say it was? I think not.

The 360 uses the R520 which has BEYOND SM3.0 so your statements are inaccurate.

What statement? My statement was fully accurate. I shall recap them

"As far as I am concerned, the xbox 360 will have lower Shader Models, seeing as ATI has no SM 3.0 boards yet and the x360 chip might be the first to get them."

Did you catch that part in bold?

Thats right, the xbox 360 was already done, making it the first completed ATI chip with anything past SM2.0. Also the xbox 360 chip is the R500.

And can you explain what beyond SM 3.0 is? Last time I checked, the CineFX 4.0 engine of the 7800 series allows for an infinite amount of shader operations. What is beyond infinite? There are no harware limitations on both vertex and pixel shader instuctions sets length with the CineFX 4.0.

also if there is no hardware limitations with CineFX 4.0 then why did sony post their specs to have 98billion shader operations?  its basically an overclocked 7800 in the ps3 so in theory wouldnt they been able to say infinite shader operations if they wanted to over-exagerate their specs even further??

Shader Operations per second and shader instruction length are two different things. Sure it can only do 98billion a second, but the length of the shader program can be infinite.

About the shader models. With 2.0 you are allowed 160 instructions for pixel shaders and 1024 instructions for vertex shaders. With 2.0B you are allowed 65,280 vertex instructions and 16 pixel shaders per rendering pass. With Nvidias second generation SM 3.0 engine (CineFX 3.0 being the first with CineFX 4.0 being the second) They allow for, like I said, infinite length shader instructions.
