In Eurogamer's latest interview BioWare president Greg Zeschuk talks more about Mass Effect's cinematic structure and combat system, explains why he believes it's a "true next-gen" title, and reveals his thoughts on the differences between PS3 and Xbox 360.
Eurogamer: About this rumoured PC version of Mass Effect...
Greg Zeschuk: We're not discussing anything about that at this point in time.
This guy is making very wise comments there:
"Eurogamer: What about the argument that PlayStation 3 is technically the most powerful console? As you're trying to push these boundaries, do you wish you had that extra power to play with?
Greg Zeschuk: With power comes challenge. A lot of improvement in games doesn't come so much from raw power as it does from the tools at your disposal - so creating tools and technologies to make the act of creating better, which we focus on a lot. And secondly, pushing the performance; hitting the limit, then pushing and hitting it, then pushing more...
At the end of this cycle, I don't think there's going to be a big difference. If everyone's waiting for this huge difference, it's just not going to happen. By the end of this generation both PS3 and 360 will look awesome. Maybe 1 per cent of the population might be able to tell the difference between the two."
And that's the end to Sony's marketingblabla about their so lied 'overpowerfull' console. The 360 and the PS3 are about equal in power. It's all up to the devs to push the game on each platform as far as they can.
For the moment that results in the best multiplatform versions on the 360, in the future, the PS3 has to be pushed to reach the same level.
''Sony lied.the ps3 sucks...........xbox is better now and theres no difference at all.''Thats what you sound like TheMART,just think of it this way, an xbox developer berating the ps3 and sony praising it doesnt mean sony lied,its called marketing
Why even respond to guy with that avatar and who basically para phrased an entire interview around the few statements that tickled him pink. While in the end that statement and 1 dollar couldnt get you on the bus.
(Statement based on the bus costing ($1.25) : )
there are already games out that can't be done on the 360.
- Motorstorm
- Heavenly Sword
- Lair
if you look at games like Uncharted .. this on the 360? never!!
they actually talk about Mass Effect in the article which imo is gonna be game of the year
