    Yeah, sad. What i dont understand is, that i thought, beyond3d was a technical site, so we can be objective at least on a technical level.

    Anyway, back to the comparison: while i prefer the MGS lighting (i thought saturated red-blue was out of fashion since.. well, Forsaken), it's pretty clear that detail-wise they're very close. I just cant understand using the argument "which one created bigger hype" - if we follow this logic, Halo2 would be the best looking game on earth :))) (hint: i think it is not)

    Could we please drop the ******ism, and discuss objectively?

    Sincerely,
    someone, who bought a pstwo just for mgs3 (and eyetoy :) )

    It is a technical place. However it's the fan-ish posts that aren't logical or even sensible that bring it down 100 notches. Some people can't see to sperate their technical informaiton from the fanatical opinion.

    Neither of you have provided an argument that disproves any of the points I just made about the impact of the MGS4 media.

    I'm done with this thread, you guys can sit here and argue about it while I sit back with the other 99% of the Internet and marvel at clearly the most impressive graphical display yet seen in videogames.

    Good luck to both of you.

    Edit: I'd also like to apologize for participating in a childish flamewar, which I know is not generally accepted on these boards. Please... let's not turn this place into IGN.

    Some were.


    Escuse me but GOW has never run on Alpha kits,it was confirmed that Alpha kits could not handle GOW,on E3 GOW was runing on 2 6800 Ultra in SLI.also the kit use on that MGS4 shots is the 2.4 Cell one with the 7800 GTX via PCIE.


    Also GOW has been build until recently on Nvidia hardware hance the graphics diference with other Xbox 360 games.

    I expect Halo3 to look right about this level or more. Any less and even the most diehard xbox ******s will admit Xenos missed the mark. :lol:

    That's not true. When epic first showed the PLAYABLE GOW the used PC hardware, but it was running on the alpha kits.

    That's total nonsense. The fact that anyone used ATI or nvidia hardware to develop on when creating art assets on a PC, doesn't have ANY impact on what the final graphics looks like. it's statements like that that are totally out of this world.

    1/ oh ,yes : he jumps ,then the camera moves around hime up chest framing.3 blendshapes and done.no need to mocap that.

    2/particle/atmospheric/postprcessing stuf.

    btw ,i think nothing is hardware (weakness) related at all. it's all talent.I would also bet Kojima's team engin to be largely superior to middleware UE3.this takes efficiency into account.

    Is this the same DF posted in the other thread? It's not really high res..direct feed, but not the best. Compression ain't great either, unfortunately :(

    That's exactly the point I made early in this thread. It's just a mtatter of preference for which you like more visually. It's not any sort of technical hardware difference as peopel continuously try to imply. Both consoles are capable of the damn same things graphically.

    The heli scene is about 5 seconds long. You actually expect the MO CAP to include KZ type scripting in those 5 seconds? What you want the marines to do Ninja flips or something?

    Also yes like someone has already mentioned UE3 was designed to be a universal game rendering engine so it'll likely be a little less efficient than an engine designed from the ground up for a specific game and console assuming the engine designers are equally as talented.

    No..PS3 will produce better graphics + more lively surroundings. The reason you should buy the Xbox360 is because you like their games more and/or you can't wait for another 6 months. get over it. PS3 will also be more expensive.

    Yes that'S what's to be expected because everything speaks for a technical superior PS3, but it seems some Xbox ******s here don't even trust their eyes anymore by comparing these types of games with eachother and holding GoW up as the better one when it obviously isn't.

    it's just like I said.

    "it's the fan-ish posts that aren't logical or even sensible that bring it down 100 notches. Some people can't see to sperate their technical informaiton from the fanatical opinion."

    PS3 does not automatically produce better graphics or more lively surroundings.
