gekko plays PS3 in T-35 days

do you honestly think the PS3 will have anything different than the xbox? I mean it can' t possibly get any more powerful, it comes down to the developers programming a good game, or a good engine.

I dont think the ps3 games will look ANY better by the time the xbox 360 is in the second generation of software

that's where the revolution comes in, the clear alternative to the super expensive graphics battle between sony and microsoft.

um, it always comes down to developers making a good game. thats no different for MS Sony or Nintendo.

Well, we always think that the graphics can't get any better when we first see them. Once you get used to them you start to not care about the graphics as much. And then the next gen comes out and the graphics are even better. I honestly don't think that we will ever reach the limit.

I think that opens the question do we really want totally realistic graphics? I'm not really sure I'd want to play a game that looks totally realistic.

Yes, I agree with you on that one Bond. Playing a truely realistic game COULD really warp some peoples minds. It would be an interactive snuff film.

I think that the graphics will continue to get better, but I don't believe they will go in the direction of realistic, they will still have that cartoony feel to them.

i beg to differ, graphics will always evolve for more realistic looking. that doesnt mean every game has to use that way.

but i believe most people would love to eventually be able to step into a Virtual reality system and have it look and be just that... virtual Reality.

thats not saying we want every game to be realistic life like blood and gore, a game could be as simple as getting into a virual reality system and playing sports games like you were really there, standing in an arena with thousands of people all around you cheering as if you were really there. (and as i said, with thoes graphics theydont have to use em to look realistic, you could step into a perfect looking Cartoon Virtual Reality)

i never liked star trek much, but the virtual reality systems on that show, is what computer / graphics are ever striving to achieve... who knows if we'll ever get there, but thats what each generation of new computer graphics is steping closer to.

at that point, there may have to be some much stricter rules on gore and things not sutable for children, but untill that day when they become perfect.. graphics will always get better and better.

I still don't believe PS3 can run a game, in real-time, at 1080p and keep a decent framerate. Sony is promising they can do it, and on two screens. Trust me, I have to see this

to add a rebuttle to crash's little slew of words..... what I truly believe is that the graphical difference between the ps3 and the xbox 360 will probably be little to none. But that doesn't say the ps3 won't be more powerful. IF, and thats a big IF..... IF the Cell processor is capable of doing what they intend to have it do, you could have a lot more going on in the game at the same time without a sacrifice of frames or lag. You may have the same game visually between the ps3 and x360 but the key to winning the console war (via MGS4) is the Cell processor.

In any case, if CELL is what Sony claims... that is the obvious difference maker in the 2 consoles. Other than that, your right... PS3 and Xbox 360 could possibly be on par with each other in terms of graphical power.
