Oh shyt!!
:ooh:
Imagine claiming a system was more powerful when %95 of all the games were vastly inferior to the weaker system.
:mjlol:


Try to make sense of that breh.

complicated does not equal more powerful.

the answer that makes the most sense is usually the correct answer. If just about every game runs better on one system then common sense would tell you that that's the better system.

More powerful but didnt actually translate to better games
:stopitslime:

Actually performed worse than the "weaker" system.

I already spoke on first party titles being good, but those studios work for Sony, it was their job to make that shytty cell processor work. Matter fact, I'll go as far as to say that the first party exclusives just proved that Sony has extremely talented studios working for them and not how powerful the ps3 itself was.


And make sure you put an asterisk next to ps3 outselling the 360 cause we all know Sony stopped releasing ps3 numbers and started bundling ps2 sales together to pad the ps3 numbers.

Yall clown Microsoft for not reporting numbers anymore when Sony was literally being deceptive with the ps3 numbers.

:hhh:

It performed worse in the multiplats because of the difficulty of programming. I'm not even disagreeing with you.

But PS3 overtook the 360 bruh. 87.4 million sold officially by corporate records. And fukk a Wii, so that makes 4 straight gens of victory.

I dont care how difficult it was to program. If it's not resulting in better games across the board then it's not more powerful.

Dont point to games that are only available on ps3 as proof of it being stronger, there is no point of reference if it's only available on ps3.

I dont recall a single ps3 exclusive that looked like it couldn't be done on the 360.

When did Sony release the official numbers? Cause as far as I remember, the sales numbers include all ps2 systems sold during that time.

But you said it wasn't stronger, it indeed was. Now let's not move the goalposts. Most of the multiplats did run better on the 360, no disagreement there. Most devs aren't gonna and didn't spend the resources to maximize it's games for the PS3. There was no need to. Just get it to run good enough.

Sure ps3 exclusives could have been made on the 360, running as well is another story since they directly used the power available to the system with the cell's processor. Naughty dog specifically talked about it back then. That's why you saw more of Sony's internal studios doing more with it and a few exception devs.

Corporate report final ps3 numbers a couple of years ago since they discontinued the PS3 production then.

I said it wasnt stronger and I stand by that statement. I dont care about how different and overly complicated the cell processor was, it didnt result in better games. If developers struggle with something that's easily done better on the 360 then it's not the stronger system. 360 had a better graphics card and a developer friendly CPU that made game development easy. Ps3 had a weaker graphics card and the cell processor that was so complicated that developers called it a bottleneck that you had to take extreme steps to get working correctly.

Naughty dog is supposed to say that, they work for Sony. Naughty dog would have worked wonders with the 360 hardware too. They are paid good money to know how the ps3 worked, and they are extremely talented. This speaks to the talent over at Sony, not the power of the ps3.


You got me with the sales numbers tho, I didnt know they released offical numbers.

Halo Infinite artstyle is what every post-Bungie Halo should have looked like from the jump. They over complicated the designs and Halo lost some of its iconic properties. Forerunner architecture looked like something out of Bayformers and the Covenant lost their iconic looks in favor of getting turned into generic scifi monsters you'd find on some cg render site.

Giant Bomb's annual post E3 interview with Phil Spencer, once again answers a lot of questions and a great interview. Jeff's asks the questions that you see on all the forums.


Was gonna make a thread on this

It's thread worthy every year.

Phil is one of the most legit heads in charge, off the strength off his love for games alone people should have an X. (Not really but....)

He's a stand up guy and as transparent as he can be
