What makes PS3 so serious?

How is it that some Game Makers such as Squaresoft, have awesome graphics unmatched by many and others don't. Is it a specific technology that Squaresoft has discovered or created that nobody else has or what.
Very confusing.

Think of what you and Picasso could do with the same pen.

Also the ability to detail makes the aesthetics 10x better too.

i'll be chosing the revolution over the ps3 for my first purchase this time...simply for the free downloads of the nintendo back catalogue...

So does anyone know which company will produce the best in game and CG graphics on the PS3? Also, while reading a magazine it seems the 80 GB hard drive is the first feature being removed. It is up to the consumer whether he/she wants it or not. Definitely not good, but at least its still there. Also the the PS3's is no longer capable of being used as a wireless router. But is has a 802.11 wireless capability and at least one Gigabit port will remain. Also the Spiderman-font that reads PS3 is no more, to make it cheaper. Can anybody who is up to times, explain what a Gigabit port and 802.11 wireless capability means. Thanks

Actually burst out laughing when I read the end of that. Seemed inexplicably funny.

You have a lot to say but the other person gets completely nothing from it.

Squaresoft does have their own self-created software for rendering people, and the motion capture studio to animate them with... that accompanied by a team of very talented 2d/3d artists makes for quite a cinematic powerhouse

I prefer the cinematics of Blizzard entertainment personally.. but they are both very good companies that represent all that is good with art in computer games today.

Now that's the answer I was looking for. Thanks. (still mad about the spoiler incident though)

the ps2 controller was bad? i thought it was the best available, closely followed by the gamcube. the xbox controller was far too bulky and unweildy, whereas the ps2 controller is very versatile and comfy too hold. how do you mean breaks like a toothpick? what, do you swing it around your bedroom or living room? i've had mine since they were out ad i've had no problems. several friends, yes, thats more than 5, have had xbox's and they've broken down and had to be replaced or got rid of for a new system. thats breaking like a toothpick. the gamecube seems durable, i've only heard of one wearing down and that was from my game-a-holic nephew playing it too much.

what do people have against sony? are you americans and have to stand up for the xbox for pride? are you jealous that gta comes out several months later for your machines? they're not a bad system, but what have they got going for them apart from halo? and halo is an overrated game. the story isn't that great, and theres loads of fps that do the same job and offer as much multiplayer fun with better story than halo.

graphically, the ps3 is apparantly going to be on top in the next gen race, so will this mean a cost hike for games? perhaps if the 360 offers games cheaper then it will fare better. nintendo are always going to be around, for their innovity and ingame publishing of series like metroid, zelda and mario. sony already have a huge fan base, yet microsoft have still not made a profit from the xbox console. they've given themselves 2 years to make a profit on the 360. if not... then maybe they wont bother, which will be a shame as less compitition, less choice of game.

Ha ha Vic. I thought some one would have known, but apparently I was wrong. What made it so funny though? I'm just curious. Also, what was spoiled for you powerfulone1987? Was it something I said? If it was, my fault. Anyone know how much memory will be offered on the PS3 memory stick?

I dunno, nothing's ever funny once it's explained. It was something about the way that you quoted all the features, then it became obvious you had no idea what the hell they were. I was also wondering the same thing, as well.

SaTsuJiN.....

about the ps3 being the most graphically enhanced, i've read several magazines and web sites state this. so i have looked into the matter before you go around saying its B.S. whether you like it or not thats whats happened.

you must be one of them people that thought the renders at e3 were the real ps3 graphics.. lol.. too gullable.. 😖

😆 Damn that was funny. Anyway, I just realized the same thing myself. Next time I should find out what the features are, then make a post. Graphically, aren't the systems going demonstrate the same ability? Similar to what we have now?

gullible? i'm just stating the facts that magazines have stated, thats all. none of it is opinion.

I would imagine them all to have the same graphical capability at this point.. they will have to learn from their mistakes (by having too much of a graphical difference from one another) , or else they will recieve less buyer support. I mean seriously, whos going to pay like 300 bucks for a new system that still plays 2 year old graphics?
