Re: Xbox 360 vs. PS3
i looked at the mgs4 direct-feed trailer on ign insider before i left work. the graphics are excellent (although making snake look like a 60 year-old pirate is pretty weird). i'm very impressed if it wasn't actually pre-rendered. they're claiming it's not, of course.

[/ QUOTE ] what are you talking about? comparing 3d computer rendering software to a low-resolution outdated video game console? try comparing the ps2 to ANY GAMING VIDEO CARD you can buy on the market. apples and oranges. it took six hours for very fast computers to render a frame of toy story. this does not mean the ps2 is technically superior because it can render 30fps of GTA3.

Also, you realize a PS2 is rendering at 480x440 resolution? Your statement is entirely false.

Re: Xbox 360 vs. PS3
consoles have the hardware edge over computers in one area only: processing power. not because they have superior technology, or anything like that, but because instead of running 25 processes and a game, the entire processor is being used to process the main function of a game.

Re: Xbox 360 vs. PS3
well that would make two areas... although I dealt with that in earlier posts.
However, Xbox is kinda trying to get rid of that, with an HDD "upgrade" for the system. Watch for them to start building constant console upgrades, if not in this console generation, then by the next.

Re: Xbox 360 vs. PS3
PS2 has sold 4 times as many consoles as xbox. This is the only data I can find to back this up atm, but I have heard other numbers quoted very similiar to this. They continue to sell more, even in the US (I couldnt find any data more recent, but the total sales are the most inmportant and these can't have changed too much in the past 6-10 months).
A market share this huge will be extremely hard to overcome. A release date a year ahead of the PS3, will help, but even if microsoft doubled their market share, they would still be way behind globally. So far, this hasnt been a console race, it has been a slaughter. This isnt like ABC vs CBS, this is closer to ABC vs TBS, in terms of market share. Saying TBS has a vastly superior fall lineup, assuming this is comepletely true, is mostly irrelivent in the overall win or lose ratings because there is too much ground to catch up.
