Can InFamous 2 be done with a good frame per second? I hope so, doesn't matter what console will run it at above 30fps.
You're still the perfect lifeform and a fantastic jurnalister, but a game developer you are not.
Good day sir.

This sounds like garbage though, I highly doubt they need to squeeze so much out pf the PS3 that coding the same thing for a 360 would be rendered impossible.
i'm not saying the devs not full of shit, but i'm not sure whether he's as full as old jim here.
The original xbox most definatley but the 360? I think someones talking crap.
Dude, c'mon, seriously? You're really going to go there? I understand you're a fan boy, but inFAMOUS 2 can sure as hell be done on a 360. Sorry, but I'm not going to take the opinion of someone who is being paid by Sony very seriously.
I hate these things, especially because there hasn't been a single game released this generation that couldn't be done on the other console. Saying otherwise is fanboyism at it's worst.
Otherwise, we'd seen it. Even 6yr old Alan Wake can't compare to a God of War or UC2. It's not a bad thing, it's just how it is. Until any dev on the 360 proves otherwise, with non-mutliplatform engines, just deal.
Is that true? Split screen gaming is the first bastion of fun and should never take a back seat to improved slidey down a rope bullshit.
Yeah, no. Your logic fails. I don't see why a multiplat engine doesn't count.
But anyway, RAGE running smooth as butter on the 360 proves everybody wrong.
I'm not even going to comment on the bulk of this article but I will say I used to follow Jim damn near religiously. But these last six months have been sad, dark days. It's not even funny anymore, it's just coming off as a bigger douche than Aaron Greenburg at this point.
I'm saying why compare multiplat engines? The differences are usually bionic eye noticeable. Dead Rising 2/LP2/AC2/RAGE/Crysis2 will all be great looking games (isn't Rage multidisc on the 360?) but will also be identical on the PS3. The true test imo, is taking a game that is supposed to be built exclusively leveraging the strengths of the console and comparing those. And the PS3 is kicking all kinds of ass.
Lots of games run smoother on 360, others on PS3.. So, I beleive, its just better to enjoy whatever system you have.
LEARN TO WRITE PROPER STORIES YOU COLLEGE DROPOUTS!
Alan Wake, Crackdown 2 and Splinter Cell were built from the ground up and still get pissed on by KZ2 and UC...1.
It doesn't matter if it is multi-platform or not, the thing is that the 360 can render it and that's the point.
Doesn't the new game by the Heavenly Sword guys actually run on an improved version of that same engine? And isn't that multiplatform? There ya go.
Regardless it still doesn't matter because power does not a good game make. Look at Sony's very own PS2, the weaker of the big three at the time. It doesn't matter so let's just stop dick measuring and enjoy videogames. Life could be so much simpler and pleasant couldn't it?
When a multi platform developer is making games that look better than your exclusive title on all the platforms it's running on, to say you're exclusive game can only be done on console x is talking shit out of your ass.
The only reason it can only be done on console x is because Publisher X is paying you to keep it exclusive.
Ever thought of that?
Sorry Jim, i most of the time, agree with your little articles. But this one is complete and utter bullshit. People just need to get over the fact that both systems have their good games. Id love to have L4D or Fable on my PS3, but that sure as hell isnt going to happen and i have accepted that fact. Time for the 360 boys to do the same, and my no means am i a PS3 fan boy. Id love to own a 360.
Graphics are tech that display coding ability and technical power. Conviction's gameplay was nerfed to the point of comedy. And it just looked ok. Infamous is better graphically, than cell shaded Crackdown. And it's jaggy as fuck. Infamous 2, in it's early stages, looks to piss all over it's predecessor. And the other open world exclusives of other systems.
I really can't care for the Infamous franchise. Dumb storyline, boring gameplay, etc. As far as I am concerned the world would be better if Infamous 2 was neither on PS3 OR X360.
I am a developer and I would never openly boast about my own inability to code for a given platform because it says a lot more about my incompetence than system X,Y or Z's capabilities.
These companies are given backhanders to say such silly things... They must be because, as Jim points out, they're basically insulting them selves!
There's a huge diference btw making a FPS and games like Red Dead Redemption and Infamous and managing to look visually stunning like Crysis, find me a game that is on the same area as GTAIV, RDR or Infamous and looks as good as Crysis 2 or 1, it's not posible dumb ass, FPS will always have the best graphics.
