EA says “we’ve maxed out 360, but not PS3″

and here we go…

there goes 360′s 10 year life span lol Oh one more thing they forgot to talk about is the console market is now in a decline in a recssion

Back to the drawing board Microsoft. Lets see if the 360 can last longer than the original Xbox. I say five years. HA!

Given that 360 still has the edge in most multi platform releases, I’d say that’s pretty evident.

yea yea this stuff is getting old who cares really

@theevilaires the ones who sink low enough in feeling they have to justify a purchase of a games console to someone/somebody/some people/people on forums. my mate who’s looking to buy his first console in years needed advice, i told him to go to N4G.com, i’ve probably destroyed his brain the poor sod.

well he’ll probably flip a coin to decide then. Why? because he’ll either hear nothing but praises about the PS3 or he might just become disgusted by the PS3 fanboys who’ll defend the name of PlayStation to their last breath of oxygen….Tell him i said good luck

This is nasty flame baiting going on right here Stephany

yea its clear she just wanted a quick laugh, good job guys for not biting.

That’s very mature of you TEA. I’m impressed. (Hmm… on reading that sounds condescending, it’s not actually intended that way)

…and yes, we’ve seen too much of this horseshit lately. Crytek, Activision, EA. Shut the fuck up, and stop making excuses.

What did Activision say?

Did he go on to say, “…and the Wii is no where close to maxmized, a true powerhouse of a machine” ?

Well it’s pretty obvious, really.

The reality is that the PS3 outclasses the 360′s hardware (look up the spec sheets, no need to start a war over something that’s actually true), but the problem is that Sony created a console with such a bizarre architecture that developers are having trouble getting used to it, this is why there are cross-platform efforts with worse PS3 versions.

However, at the end of the day, the specs of the PS3 read better and eventually we’re going to start seeing evidence of that as developers finally begin to wrap their minds around how the PS3 works, and as Sony release more and more friendly SDKs.

Uncharted 2, anyone?

I don’t understand why this is a surprise for anybody with a brain.

The question is not whether the PS3 is more powerful than the ‘box, the question is whether developers can tap into that power in a fun way.

I am still confused as to which game they are referring to that has maxed out the 360. He is basically having a sly dig at both Microsoft and Sony…very witty indeed.

sigh – what did obama say about it? is this really true?

It’s pretty evident that when Turn 10 decided to limit MP in Forza 3 to just 8 players/cars and even SP has the same amount of car on the track as Forza 2: 8, it’s because by choosing to stick to 60fps (but still only 720p), the 360 was being pushed close to its limit.

Given the differences between Forza 2 and Forza 3 I’m not necessarily sure that Forza is the best of examples for the 360 being maxed out.

The PS3′s supposed hardware advantage has been touted by many a fanboy, but sorry, I havent really seen it. If if a PS3 game has awesome graphics like Uncharted 2 or Killzone 2, it hasnt matched the difference from a dreamcast to Ps2, Genesis to SNES, Atari to Intellivison to Colecovision.
If I saw that much difference, I may actually buy a PS3.

360 is maxed out because they make it easier on the devs. This is a good thing for 360 owners, because they get the full potential of the system much sooner.

That said, the PS3 isn’t going that much farther, but I still lurve it.

/em hugs his shiny PS3

EA produce decent games but in no way is any one “maxing out” any of the current consoles.

Yeah, sure… I wonder after how many years of things don’t showing the supposed PS3 advantage we could lay these crap to rest.
For sure KZ2 “superiority” didn’t make me want to go out and buy the game. I went with LBP, go figure… :p

But what does Peter Moore say?
