PS3 News: PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 Graphics Gap Will Start To Widen

From here on out, you will see the visual gap between the PS3 and 360 widen. It's basically inevitable, as Sony and more importantly, developers, have been saying since the start of the generation. Multiplatform titles will probably continue to look mostly the same across both consoles, but it's becoming clearer that if you let devs off the chain and dive into the PS3 without having to worry about the 360, they can really create something dazzling. Last generation, when the Xbox launched, its launch software put most PS2 games to shame (graphically). But by the time the generation was over, the aforementioned PS2 titles competed quite favorably with the best the Xbox has to offer. This time around, I think we're seeing an earlier-than-expected acceleration of the PS3's power, and the future exclusives will prove that Sony absolutely has the visual edge this time around. The only question is, how far will they push the gap...?

So. It has begun?

How much longer until the Wii catches up to and surpasses the 360 in graphics?


And blah, blah, blah graphics don't matter. Blah, blah, blah won't somebody please think of the gameplay?

You forgot "waggle>>>gfx"

Waggle doesn't really have anything to do with a graphical comparison between the PS3 and 360, so I felt it need not be included.

There is always a way to lurk in pimps for the console not touched by the discussion

Nonsense we know that the X360's GPU is 2x the PS3's GPU.

I won't trust that article with a penny, of course they say that since they are a PS fansite, I think it was John Carmack who said both consoles were pretty much the same hardware wise, the 360 had a better graphics chipset but the PS3s cell would compensate for the inferior graphics chipset

It'll just be a case of wait and see. Although with the official UK Xbox magazine stating that Killzone 2 is graphically superior to Gears of War 2 there are signs that this could turn out to be true. Of course 1 game hardly constitutes a trend.
