Keep sucking off Sony Summa, you're pathetic.

"Remember in podtoid when you made the comment that Analog P making a post is more newsbreaking then the post he made? It's becoming full circle my friend."

Not that it matters to you, but I do most of the work for Dtoid behind the scenes.

I don't care what system it's on, if Haze is half as good a Timesplitters, then it's gonna fuckin rock.

tazarthayoot, Haze is coming to the PS3, 360 and PC.

Summa said, "I do most of the work for Dtoid behind the scenes."

that is quite a lofty claim.

@ TAZAR!!

1) Venture Bros is fucking epic.

2) Sorry bout your bro, the new Pumpkins suck, the Pumpkins haven't been good since Mellon Collie

3) You owe me two sponge baths for such blasphemy!

Sorry, after 70 posts I figured it was dead.

BTW...

I'm REAAAAALLY grungy.. You better get to work dude, the crusties on my feet ain't waiting for NObody.

"lesser systems"?. Yeah right, more like: since the PS3 is a bitch to program for, and is even worse to port to, it is just the lesser evil to program for it first and then enjoy how much more easier it is to port to the 360 and PC then the other way around.

How desperate can you be for attention... sad sad sad.

Heh...this means that no systems will get the game in a reasonable amount of time. By the time the ps3 version is done the game will already be 2 years overdue...

It would be neat if either of those titles hit the PS3 before 2008. I doubt it, though. We should thank Summa for reminding us why we haven't bought a PS3 yet.

I hope so. If I got MGS4 on the 360, I don't think I'd need a PS3 evar.

So, because there are good things going for sony, it makes summa a fanboy for posting it? I thought this was a hardcore gaming blog, not the ninty or xbox forums. Also wow, you kids will never let go of MGS4. If you aren't saying it sucks, your saying it'll be on 360.

Sony really needs to keep games exclusive, if it comes out on 360 in a few months time then they have no real advantage. Most cross platform games I have encountered looked and felt much better on 360. This may be due to all sorts of factors but the fact remains that the PS3 is much more expensive with multi-platform games looking worse than 360. Just embarrassing.

Damn, whats with all the PS3 haters coming out of their holes?

@Summa:
How is the 360 a lesser system? Is there something that the general public does not know that you are privy to, or is it just your opinion?

1) Venture Bros. is indeed fucking epic.

etc.) As any seasoned PC gamer should know, processor power is far less significant than a system's graphics card. In that respect, the 360 edges the ps3 out slightly. While the ps3's cell has pretty enormous potential, developing software to efficiently use 8 processors at once is a coder's nightmare. The 360 still has plenty of processing power, just a far more programmer-friendly architecture. In all, the systems are quite comparable, specs wise and the 360 really isn't a lesser system.

well.

- Haze screenies look f???in amazing, lets hope the gameplay is as fun and honestly.
- This is weird because even CEO of ubisoft complains about the PS3, yet their making a PS3 exclusive? I dont think so, that smells like a xbox re-seller.
- I could sure use a Halo change from red vs blue.

and to the inferior comments, lets look @ the specs shall we? I mean Wii could win the war if it makes great games, so this could end up being inrevelant, but shows a point ;)

I'm not sure where you got that chart from, but wikipedia clocks the ps3's rsx gpu at 500mhz, and the 360 is capable of 1080p. Also, there has been no news of a ubisoft ps3 exclusive, that's purely internet speculation.

@blackdove

LMAO, your insane if you think being able to sit in a room in 'The Darkness' and watch 70+full length movies is anything but a testament to how useless blueray is for gaming. Big fuckin deal i can watch a few movies on my 360 version too although i'll more than likely be playing the fucking game instead.
I dont care about how many fmv cut scenes or cg movie interuptions they throw between the gaming, i care about the gaming itself. If and when i make the decision to buy a ps3 you better damn believe it's gonna have to have a whole lot more than disc-capacity to convince me.

@ jimjo

honestly, i give thnx to the chart it didnt include the "ELITE", cuz honestly, its a piece of shit. its the same specs but 120HDD and some other crap (not even worth even mentioning) and its black... for the cheap price of 500$ :)

oh and yea, no HD DVD, so much Elite'ness... forgot to mention, people keep saying blue is shit for games... since when extra space ( about 4-5 dvd's of space) is bad?

@BlackDove, nice view point.

One thing I would ask is why 360 selling DVD games @ 60$... when thats BRD price tag. PS2, Wii are selling GREAT games @ 50$ and cheaper, why is there a 10$ addition to a DVD game? when I thought BRD was more expensive.

idk its prob just me, but I think i found that kinda ironic.

At the end of the Dtoid movie it will be revealed that Summa was the puppet master behind EVERYTHING!!! What a twist!

And some of you guys give him way more shit than he deserves. I'm a complete asshole, but sometimes I feel embarrassed by how viciously he gets attacked by people who read way too much into his posts. It was old meme like last year. Like him or not, he's done a shitload to make Dtoid what it is.

The difference will be negligible.

--> @brad drac

You hit a perfect point. To you, Blu-Ray may count as shit (for whatever reason). To me, Blu-Ray version can contain 4x the size of Liberty City of GTA4, however as we've heard from their developers, trying to make GTA4 for the Xbox is a nightmare, and therefore the city will probably need to be much smaller, range of motions shorter, textures inferior, sound inferior, for it to fit on a DVD.

As an example; They get an idea to make a huge scripted piece of story happen in a big New York type sky scraper, that doesn't have area limitations (as in, you can go wherever you want, all 200 floors of it). On the PS3, you could add the entire building model, texture, sounds that are unique to that sky scraper.

But uh-oh. There's no room for all of that on a DVD. What ever shall we do?

THAT'S how much Blu-Ray matters.

So the developers have an option;

a) Make the game fit onto more than one DVD (I'd say 3 or 4 at best to match what the PS3 can hold) as so many companies are doing these days (stuff like Microsoft Flying Simulator X comes on 2 DVDs - it's not really an Xbox issue, DVD has just become too small of a medium to carry the current generation of graphics, sound and content we have today).

In an example with GTA, I'm sure the Xbox players will love to swap DVD's when they want to go to a different area of Liberty City.

or

b) Water down the game for the Xbox but keep all of its immense features on the PS3. Remember - if you're talking about GTA, you're talking about a lot of seamless shit that will take space. I don't play or like GTA myself, but from what I've seen, those car radio conversations, sizes of the "free-non-linear" city, etc. take up space on a format.

This option is unacceptable and isn't a real "port" if it's done. Xbox players would be cheated out of 2/3rds of the content. There would be no reason to justify an Xbox purchase if the PS3 comes with more areas, better textures and models, better sounds, etc.

c) Water down the game for both systems. Nobody wins but the developer. They cut costs on multiple DVD's for one version, they cut costs on production and lead-time (after all, when you set your sights on 4.7gig as opposed to 24gig, you will get much different results as to how much time you're going to spend on textures, models, sound encoding, content filtration, etc)

If I'm a developer, and in the business of making money with the least amount of work as possible (as developers are, and every human on the planet, but especially people ruled by big corporation), I'm going with the c) option.

That's how much Blu-Ray matters. If the format and the size it represents is [b}FORCED[/b] onto the developing market, people will need to get to work to make shit that hasn't been made before. This is why most of the developers bitch about the PS3. Games take more time to make, due to the complexity of writing for the Cell sure (multi threading is a bitch), but it's also that you just simply need more TIME to make a game, to make all of the content. More time doesn't conform with making money, seeing as you need to pay people making shit for your game, and their salaries cost, as well as the time that you spend not releasing a product.

That's why the Wii is so awesome. Funny, simple, short games. No need to spend a lot of time on models, textures, sounds. It's ready to go quickly. Vrooom. Make no mistake - making a Zelda for the GameCube/Will is a much different task than hypothetically making it for the Xbox or the PS3.

As far as PS3 being a better system than the Xbox - please. Even a fucking child knows that due to its parallel processing ability _when utilized correctly_, the PS3 can just simply show a ton more shit happening on the screen than the competition. And me, I like to be immersed into a game, so the more shit they show me per frame, the better, because you know, I like games moving forward from the beginnings of games where all you had on screen were two fucking paddles and a ball.

But that's just me.

*yawn*
