Is this a bad thing for Xbox 360?

[Jeet]

no the xbox will just use a different physics engine

Did you read the comments? :elefant:

I wish people would realize that 1up.com is nothing but a bunch of PS loving whores, I sware, that site should be EVERYONES last source for videogaming news.

Did you see thier recent post about the whole HD-DVD being delayed? They should have wrote something along the lines of "X36O sucks!!11! PS3 PWN3S!!!"

It's ridiculous...

[citizen X]

Exactly

1up.com is a site more for fanboys then people looking for real information.

In the end the PS3 will have better physics because of the 7 SPEs but so what, the crapy pixilated cars are going to crash real nice in other crapy pixilated cars, in the middle of a crapy pixilated world. Now I really want to spend 700.00 on George foreman grill.

But who cares right, the physics are what’s important, not the graphics.

!!!!Yeah right!!!!:bird: :mad:

Calm down people, there have been a lot of dust around it, and the AGEIA responsibles said that this was taken out of context from the Exposition. It was only a prediction of the way both consoles would perform based on their especifications, no deep research has been made about it, so there's nothing to worry.

And yes, 1up.com is the worst biased Anti-Xbox website out there. They make an scandal over anything negative about the x360 and hardly publish something bad about the PS3. If you read carefully their article, and compare it with the original source, you'll notice how bad they add sensationalism to theirs.

How can 360 physics be bad with the monster ATI video card inside it? I think this guy has the entire issue about right.

"Sony can hope all they want but preorders are already sold out in tons of places for 360. Fact of the matter is this. Who has a ps3 alpha kit?? Nobody, thats who. So there are no facts about ps3. Only want sony wants you to know. Not one dev has the ps3 in hand because it isnt even finished yet!!! 360 for the most part is all facts. People have the betas already in hand. Some even have the final kits. 360 has 3 processors of the same speed as sony's console (made by the same company IBM). So i highly douth that IBM has a super processor for one company but not for the other. Both consoles have the same MB of ram, practically the same graphics card capability, OH, but Sony's system is waaaayyyyy more powerfull. Anyone who's stupid enough to belive the hype, (created by Sony themselves) is an idiot. As of now, only sony know what the ps3 is capable of. Nobody else has any of their hardware to prove all these articles. It's all BS. Plain and simple."

I have IGN insider and I think it's great. It's actually pretty unbiased, unlike Gamespot or 1up.

Anyway, it doesn't particularly matter, firstly because the 360 runs very well with Unreal 3.0 engine which has great physics. Second, if you actually read the article it says that it isn't something wrong with the 360, it's wrong with the coding of the engine..

Yeah IGN rocks, but I can't get my dad do pay for the Insider :(

(I have the 20, it's just he has to put his cred card in, he hates video games lol)

Same here, he thinks it’s a waste of time and Money, and terns your brain to mush LOL, as if watching TV is any better. I want him to try to beat the library in halo 1 on legionary.LOL

I had him take me to the store for half life 2(those were days before I could drive), woooow!!!! That was a long ride home.LOL

[ace2cloud]

I think that statement was retracted, but I can't find the link...

OMG


Somehow my dad took me to EB games and after I bought a game he started telling me "You better get sraight A's or no video games!"

"Video games are for bums!"

Stuff like that.

LOL, our stories are almost similar :)

Yeah they're very similar, but once I told him I wanted to make game he kind of freaked out, until I told him how much money is involved making games and the fact that the gaming industry makes more money then the movie industry now. Then he stopped nagging me about the whole gaming thing. Now he just gets upset if I play a game for 8 hours strait, and says “get out side or else I’ll see how far I can through the Xbox” of course he’s just joking but I get the picture. Usually he does care any more.

The funny thing is that my mom said she would never start playing video games, not because she thinks they're a waste of time, but because she said she'd get hooked on then and have no time for other things. LOL seriously that’s what she said. :tee: :top:
