If you watch G4 right now as soon as the commercial break is over they will show something about PSU on XPLAY.

Watched it... it looks exactly the same as the PC version. Where's the stuff that "blows the PC version away" at?

Hmm, I've loved these guys since before G4. It's nice to see they havn't lost their luster even after they've been forced to whore themselves out.

It's nice to see that they're excited for PSU, XD.

And on a side note, did anyone see some of the video for Bio Shock? DEAR GOD MAN, IT LOOKS INCREDIBLE.

"Online play Suspended due to alleged cheating."

You do realize that the PC version goes up to 1280x1024 resolution while the Xbox 360 version goes up to 1280x720?

Not that I'm taking sides, but shouldn't having fun and playing with friends be just a "little" more important than how big of an orgasm you get from the graphics of a game? Get over it... please.

yeah im more about gameplay than graphics....just got exited seeing the difference from pc to 360....theres notably more texture to it.

The stuff they showed on the video looked like the PC version, even better, it's not widescreen, so it's the PC/PS2 verison showing in the video


And on a side note, did anyone see some of the video for Bio Shock? DEAR GOD MAN, IT LOOKS INCREDIBLE.

that was exactly what I was thinking.. wow


You do realize that the PC version goes up to 1280x1024 resolution while the Xbox 360 version goes up to 1280x720?

a) high resolutions are pointless when you only got textures on your screen that are 256x256,

b) 1280x1024 is the most stupid resolution you can use (unless you got a 17" TFT) 1280x1024 is 5:4 which is even worse than 4:3,you should at least use 1280x960. besides the fact that all your games got even less screen space left and right, all your movies get even bigger black bars when watching on a 5:4 resolution..

c) you need more than high-res to get good graphics, original xbox games on the 360 are not looking better at all when playing them in 720p..

but I do agree that from what I have seen from the 360 version, it only looks slightly better than the PC version.

Tystys
Oct 8, 2006, 02:58 PM
Slightly better? The PC can easily become better with a simple upgrade. The 360 and other consoles are pretty much stuck with what they got. No matter how much a game slows down, there's really no way to make it go faster.

EDIT:I meant consoles on the last sentence, just to clear up any confusion.

Parn will be hosting a concert in celebration of the US/EU servers being opened. It will be held on the weekend it is released. Tickets go for 1000 Meseta for the lower stadium seats, while the front row tickets go for about 4000 Meseta a pop. Free Refreshments afterwards for your moneyz.

true.. well not really a simple upgrade (maybe in the future) but the GeForce 8800 will make the 360 and PS3 look outdated next month >_>

Na gaming in general isnt that much.
Although computer gaming is more expencive if you have a job your set... NP

Dont even use the *your set forever* quote because if you had a computer at the end of a consoles life you would hate the console...

Just a question to the 8800 guy... Is nvidia finaling going to use HDR and AA at the same time lol?

qoxolg
Oct 8, 2006, 03:51 PM
thats why I have a 360, I just want a system that can play games with decent graphics for 3-4 years.

They say the card is gonna cost something like $600, same price as the PS3, just depends on what you want.. a new console or the best graphics on the planet..

Parn
Oct 8, 2006, 03:52 PM
That's why you always settle for midrange cards!

In my case, I won't bother until Square ships their next MMO... by then, Vista'll have been out for a good bit.

Well from what I understand both Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb both appreciate the Phantasy Star franchise. I believe Morgan Webb's two favorite game series are the Legend of Zelda and Phantasy Star. Adam (although not a fan of console RPG's) once said he was really looking foward to Phantasy Star Universe. It's nice to know the two respect Phantasy Star Universe even though they hate on a lot of other games. Just goes to show our precious Phantasy Star is one of a kind.

Hahaha, to me, it always seems that every new gfx card that come out, they say "it's the best on the planet" then a few months later, here comes another.

Moore's Law of Computational Capacity: Every 18-24 months, the average capacity of new computer machinery or peripherals, in speed of computation, becomes twice as fast. This has been true of the PC Market for the past 20-some odd years.

qoxolg
Oct 8, 2006, 04:05 PM
I didn't say the card is the best on the planet, but the GFX it will produce will easely blow away the PS3 and 360 thanks to the new shader model 4.0 (directX10). If you don't believe me, look for some trailers of crysis.

Also remember that the fall update is gonna make the 360 support 1080p

qoxolg
Oct 8, 2006, 05:34 PM
true, but again.. 1080p won't make PSU look better at all.

I'm glad i have a x360 to play on but the simple fact that PC/PS2 people will be together does get to me. It is looking amazing on x360 that's also a fact! Also, while video gaming has pushed technology for the last 20-some odd years PC will always be at the front as long as you want to shell out the $

The Xbox 360 doesn't look any better then the PC version. The only difference I see is glow filter effects and a smoother frame rate.

The textures look the same and so does the game models.

Lol, they will probably play it for a weekend and then drop it. The only reviewers I've ever seen interested about any online rpg for an extended amount of time is the way the entire staff at Game Informer oogles over WoW.
