If you read my post the color depth is not toned down, it runs at full 32bit color. There is at least one excuse why the x360 can't run the game flawlessly, the game isn't finished yet.

It doesn't surprise me that some developers may be cutting corners so they can meet there launch date for X360 (That is still a launch title isn't it?)

Its tough not to expect some games being under-developed because 360 is only months away...

Within a years time we will finally see what the 360 can handle. If anything's the next dreamcast it will be Nintendo's new system, but thats my opinion. If Japanese have such small homes that they can't  fit a xbox in it, there not going to have room to run around and fling a controller in the air to play a game...



Quake sucks anyways.

Wedding-shirt, we know much less about the PS3, and yet you already KNOW it's better?  Lets go with that approach for a second.  If 512 MB is not enough memory for textures, then Sony is SOL.  Only half of their memory is used for the RSX.  The other half goes to the Cell.  So 256 vs ~384 is probably what we will run into, memory wise.  The 360 is about flexibility.  No hard feelings, just don't throw MS out of the picture just yet.

dont forget about the rumor a month or so back that states sony might have realized 512 wasnt enough to accomodate the ps3's acrhitecture so they were adding more.

just more reason why the price will be higher.

I havent heard anything since, so as far as rumors go, this one is probably really far fetched, more so than most rumors.

See, this is exactly why it's hard to draw a line this early in the game.

In my opiniion the developers are the key to next gen consul's

they are the ones who tap into the system and find ways to make better games.

I have said this before ..........x360 vs ps3......will come down to the online play.

Online play is the next revolution in home entertainment mark my words.(slowly but surely)



So who would you put your money on in that department??

QUOTE
Read over your own quotes from the great John Carmack, they are his opinions. When a person says "In contrast he thinks the PS3 will be harder to develop for", the key thing in there is the word "thinks", he only thinks this, meaning it holds no truth and is only an opinion.

That was what I said and here is your response to that.
QUOTE
I'm going to have to disagree with you on that because "Thinking" can also be opinion.

Now, didnt I just say what you said?
I would like to state how knowing can also be an opinion.

If I say "I know this chicken is (notice how I didnt say, will be) better tasting than that chicken" and I have tasted both of the chickens, this is also my opinion, but it is an opinion I know is fact in my mind. Here is another example, "I know Half-Life 2 is much better than DOOM3", this is also an opinion, yet since I have played both games, I do know which is better in my opinion.

Moving along here is the rest of my words
QUOTE
This line could also mean he hasnt even used a PS3 devkit, as he only thinks. In my opinion, if he has used a PS3 devkit, it wouldnt be he only thinks, it would be he knows.


For the record I was not saying this is a fact, I was saying this could mean he never used a PS3 devkit.

Lets look at this line of John Carmacks once again.

"In contrast he thinks the PS3 will be harder to develop for with inital games being disappointing as a result."

Now, when I look at that line, IMO he has not used a PS3 devkit or he would have said the following.

"In contrast he thinks the PS3 is harder to develop for with inital games being disappointing as a result."

All I did was change one simple part of the sentence and it gains a whole new meaning. To me, there is a big difference between when someone says something IS and when they say something WILL BE. wink.gif

I love how people flock over anything John Carmack says.  rolleyes.gif Am I the only person to notice how outdated the great rolleyes.gif DOOM3 engine was, when it was released? Please explain to me how that engine was any good. It had almost zero enviroment interaction. The AI was horrid. For its time, it was outdated and nothing more than an over glorified tech demo.
