Legion, what you're missing is that whenever something's released multiplatform, the PS2 version is the one that looks like ass.

It's a bit fricking ironic though, given that your only claim to fame in videogameworld is that another team at your workplace is doing that Chthulu game which never seems likely to come out, and there's not going to be a PS2 version...

Generally, they're pretty close - multiformat developers dont generally bother that specialising for individual formats that much, with higher poly models etc - its lowest common denominator (gamecube, generally) that leads to the Xbox version looking almost exactly the same as the PS2 version.

Gamecube and PS2 have more and better platform specific games.

I never said i had anything to do with Cthulhu, because i didnt. I just happen to work at the same company. Sorry about that.

I heard that Cthulu game was kept being delayed because Legion costantly had sex with the build server.

What a fucking cunt :lol:

Try this. I love my x-box, i love my Game Cube, I HATE my PS2. Worthless bag of ugly slow shit that cant even get good games these days.

So, what i'm laughing at, is the stupid Xbox 2 name. Xenon sounds way cooler than x-box 360, lol.

Sorry if i hurt your inter-feelings by you reading a message on a forum :lol:

You also think remaking Quake 2 with higher resolution textures and models is a GREAT IDEA!!! Your opinion doesnt count.

Forget something again. I'm not wound up. This is an inter-forum, who gives a shit.

Hey, can't we all just agree on that you're both cunts, ok?

Im no Eraser, but you have to be a fool to believe that Gamecube is the lowest common denominator. Gamecube is more powerful than the PS2. Xbox is more powerful than the Gamecube.

Agreed, and thats correct.

The PS2 is, by far, the lowest spec machine. The cube may not have many games but thats nintendo's fault. The machine itself is amazing. Why do you think capcom are having trouble porting re4 to the PS2? They have to cut the polycount in half and reduce the number of individual models on screen a LOT...

On the ram front, isn't it 32 for ps2, 48 for game cube and 64 for xbox?

As a developer, aren't you supposed to release a game at some point in your career?

We're talking about cross platform games tho. In general, they run on the same engine with the same assets as the lowest spec system.

Keep up lad

which is why my post said 'cross platform or not " :lol: pay attention wheezy :lol:

Whoah there quickdraw, i had an edit on the way...

Testoclesius · Post by **Testoclesius** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 11:58 am

you should have just deleted your post altogether mate :lol:

you obviously havent got much experience with games if you think the cross platform ones look the same on both xbox and ps2 :lol: the difference is blindingly obvious to everyone with else mate sorry :lol:

Post by **LXS** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:04 pm

Yes yes, repeat yourself until i get bored of you. We've done this before. And now i'm bored of you.

Testoclesius · Post by **Testoclesius** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:10 pm

dont worry mate just hang in there in the gaming nerdistry one day you might be capable of seeing the difference in cross platform games between the xbox and the ps2 :lol:

Post by **o'dium** » Wed Apr 13, 2005 12:29 pm

Ok, one test. Go play SC:CT on a ps2 and then an x-box, and you tell me there is no difference.

Damn they had to remake the GAME just to get it to run. They even had to lower the resolution of the MENU FFS, THE MENU! :lol:

But dont woryr, under al lthis hackage and making thingsl ook like shit, it still runs worse than the xbox version, so they must be on par!

*cough* Max Payne 2.

Come off it Legion, you know perfectly well that there's plenty of games the PS2 can't handle. The only real benefit is you get to play extremely tedious Japanese RPGs which are completely linear and involve incessant backtracking, and are about grooming a child.
