Crysis 2: PS3 performs better than 360 version

Gully State said:
I find that in this gen, console games are just as susceptible to bugs/crashes and other types of issues that have plagued PC in prior years (This definitely was not the case in previous gens). The only difference is that while console gamers have to wait for the eventual patch to get it fixed, there's usually a workaround/solution on the PC side if you're proactive enough to look for one since being on an open platform allows end users to tweak and modify the end product.

I think patching has given publishers some freedom to release a more buggy game, but I wouldn't say it's common, Assassin's Creed is the only game I've had a progression stopping bug on this generation.

Does is matter where they do their QA?

That depends, the biggest problem is that the current QA checklist goes like this:

- Does it boot y/n
- Is it patchable y/n

"We're thrilled to announce the shipment of another AAA+ product in this hardcore and AAA+ gaming series!"

Developers who test in-house or have their own dedicated test divisions mostly deliver better quality software than the ones who outsource their QA work.

For you two idiots it sure was the end. Crysis 2 - truly a killer FPS.

this thread is a fucking miss
but anyway 99% pc versions of multi games rapes console version
even a game like ninja blade was a blast in pc ( for 10 $ :P ) while it was a fucking shitty game on console because of the massive tearing , lack of aa and shitty resolution .

last time me and my friend tried comparing just cause 2 ps3 vs pc

low on pc with medium water + 1080p >>>>>>>> ps3 version
one of my friend is building a pc now because of it :P

From my experiences, it's not as simple as that ;) Also this widely differs between MS/Sony/Nintendo.

Fact of the matter is, their is no such thing for PC gaming. You can release your game in a shitty state, the end consumer is the final tester.

That Yerli interview is incredibly stupid.

So why is it exactly that PC gamers put up with more crap?
Because there is no such thing as first party certification in PC gaming, so people are used to minor and major bugs in releases! Is this a good thing now?

I guess MS and Sony need to grow some balls and stop testing games for their platforms to breed a superior form of console peasants.

Except that isnt what he meant at all. What he meant is a game like The Witcher that has a very different type of combat and play style or a game like Stalker that is brutally hard and unforgiving at the beginning of the game. Those types of games will never be a success on consoles. Most console gamers would give those games about 5 minutes then give up on them and never come back. The difference between a System Shock 2 and Bioshock are perfect examples of this.

WTF? So only pc gamers play "true hardcore" games and all console guys are kinda casual? Did you ever play Demons Souls?

The best would be an analog stick for movement and a mouse for aiming... sounds too good to be true!

If only someone decided to combine the analog movement of a regular controller, and also achieve mouse-like accuracy into one single input device.



Wait a minute.....

People care about Crysis on consoles?
Click to expand...
I do. Right now that's the only way I'll get to experience the Crysis franchise. I've heard great things about the first two games, so I'm excited as hell for 2.

Hopefully, the game won't be too butchered as far as gameplay. They have to be cutting some corners on the PC version to make the game fit on consoles. I mean, I feel kind of bad for PC players for the potential "dumbing down" of the game.

But on the other hand, I can't wait to pop this into my PS3 and enjoy the game.

If that's what he meant, he's still terribly wrong.

I'm going to have to agree with schennmu on this one. Ninja Gaiden sold really well.

Sure, it didn't sell 20 million copies, but it didn't sell worse than games like The Witcher and STALKER.

I was focusing more on "games that are very different control or playstyle wise" than the difficulty.

Don't confuse difficulty with complexity.

Some of my friends that come over use the PS3 browser as a way to plan out which bands we are going to see when there are a bunch of shows at the same time. It's pretty useful as a basic browser.

Just not a very smart thing to say, taking into account that both PC and console gaming have their hardcore niches. Can't we just all live in peace without taking sides here?

Also Yerli is known for hyperbole and sometimes weird interviews, so it doesn't surprise me.

You had to actually learn the mechanics of Ninja Gaiden to beat it. There were sections where you would go forty five minutes to an hour without a save, and if you didn't know how to actually fight and were just playing based luck, you would never make it through those parts. It's one of the very few DMC style games that actually had fully featured fighting mechanics that required you to do more than some very basic strategies.

At that point I would probably default to the Wii as my example, unless by consoles we specifically meant the HD twins.

Great now we get to hear how Crysis 2 looks better on PS3 and looks worse than Killzone 2.

We'll have to see how Crysis 2 looks on consoles, and PS3 obviously. But Killzone 3 versus Crysis 2 is going to be one knock down drag out fight of awesome. :lol

Ninja Gaiden is not complex. it's masterfully balanced, but it's only as complex as every other DMC action game. Walk down corridors, kill things to open doors, solve basic puzzles.

It would take 5 minutes to fully load any thread from all the gifs.

How did this turn into a console vs. PC war again?

I've been without a PC for about 5 months because money is tight. My PS3 had filled in that gap very nicely. My PS3 can't completely replace a PC but it allows me to sufe the web, pay bills, email watch streaming video's post on GAF and catch up on TV shows i've missed.

You can :lol at the PS3's web brower all you want, but it's tiding me over untill i get another PC. The PS3 web brower not only works but it's pretty goddamn useful.
 
"lol PS3 browser" is so played out. Yes people use them, it gives access to the fucking internet. It's useful for shit
 
I hope one releases in the Fall and the other closer to Christmas so I can enjoy both. Really, as long as one releases this year I'll be content.
 
The biggest problem with using the web browser is that the javascript needs to be turned off otherwise it will crash and if your very lucky or just downloading something in the background it will corrupt the ps3 filesystem in the process.
