Of course. We knew there is a problem with the scaling, so PS3 can only do 4D crowds, but that just doesn't scale well to 3D crowds so it goes all the way down to 2D crowds.
A firmware should fix that.

You forgot about the ICT flag that will be turned on around 2010 and make the crowd, 2D or 4D, disappear.
No, the ICT flag is on now keeping you from seeing the real capabilities of the PS3.
For a limited time, purchase the BRAVIA True HD 1080P TV along with the Sony True HD HDMI 1080P Hi-Fi cable and recieve the full Sony experience with TRU Next-Gen Now (tm) 1080P Lossless DTS Blu-Ray 4x Better than your Real Life (tm) 4-D crowds.

I heard that the 1.3 firmware adds a 5th dimension regardless of whether or not physics deems it impossible. This is just a rumour. I shouldn't say any more.

They should have projected the 4d crowds onto 3d crowd space and they would be fine then

Not sure if I'm allowed to do this because the other thread was locked, but given that we're already talking about it:

It's not just the crowds. The lighting on the crowds (which should be better on precomputed sprites), the banners, the ring floor, and the freaking ropes!!! For the ring floor it looks like they disabled AF for the PS3, and I don't know what in God's name would be a reason for using inferior ropes. It's hard to tell if the models are as much better as suggested by shots earlier in the thread.
EDIT: Looking closer at the crop, it seems like the motion blur uses fewer samples in the PS3 version (2 steps vs. 6). Along edges, the stepping pattern suggests no AA, and only a blur instead. These guys definately did a lazy port. Possibly polished artwork to make the fighters look a bit better, but everthing else is worse by a mile.
I don't think we can say the PS3 is in trouble, but it seems unlikely now that Xenos is worse than RSX. I actually thought it would be the other way around in the early going because NV40/G71 have been around a lot longer than Xenos.

Phew. I was hoping the next gen hadn't started yet while we wait for Sony. Fortunately it now starts when they update their firmware now

Some edges look like AA, but elsewhere you see a step pattern that could only happen without AA, so I'm gonna bet on the latter. Also, let's keep this thread on topic and not mention the other games in the article.
(Not that this superdimensional rendering talk is particular on topic, but at least it's slightly entertaining...)

Picked it up today, looks pretty sweet, the animations are still quite funny-looking, still, using Ali to knock out De La Hoya is always fun, get in the ring mode pwnz-wownz. Damn those ringside girls are sexy.
For a good challenge, take manny pacquiao vs muhammid ali. Now that's a mismatch!!
Can it really be a poor port? I mean it was shown running on the PS3 well before the 360 version and released nearly a year later. If anything the 360 got the port. EA in particular has publicly stated that they have more development resources dedicated to the PS3 than any other platform.
I just don't buy the laziness and/or limited time arguments. Seems more likely that the architecture and the available development tools make PS3 development slower and more challenging than the competing platforms at the present time. That will continually improve as Sony and the individual studios build out their development pipelines.

whoa....
I wonder if the 360 will have the advantage in IQ (textures and lighting) as it may appear from these early results and PS3 may eventually have an advantage in physics and animation?

Well, with hyperbole like "they don't even look close" you obviously can't take that report seriously.
If there's a difference, it's very small.

probably. but when placed head to head on the same screen, I guess they would know better than you or I. Unless it's some kind of PR set up to make the 360 look better?
I don't know this groups affiliation, if they have any at all.

It might happen next year, but honestly I'm looking to 2008 for the PS3 to really come into it's own.
Most of PS3's big games will likely be delayed, just like the 360's were in their first year. I doubt the situation with the cross platform games will change much at all, maybe the edge will shift over to the PS3, but we'll still be talking about minute differences.

Yeah, I agree with that judgment call.
