Why is it '' Locked '' in the first place ? I mean for the price of that system Sony should give the devs %26 gamers the unlocked version. j/k but only a lil bit. :PKillzone 2 Producer says Lets try to unl ...
I think Sony needs to ''unlock'' the power and then share how they did it in their new dev kits. Then you will find that a lot of 3rd party support that has gone to the X360 would come back. I still haven't seen Sony unlock anything.
Wow, again, another dev. working on a SONY game says positive things about the game AND system its coming out on in a few months! Wow!!! What a concept! What's next,we'll hear Peter Molyneau will say how great the Xbox 360 is and that devs should unlock its power too while saying great things about Fable 2? Oh wait.. that's happened too.[QUOTE=''_Parky_''] http://talkplaystation.com/killzone-2-producer-lets-try-to-unlock-ps3s-power/he machine itself is a lot more futureproof, there's a lot more to it %26ndash; the whole idea of SPUs and the cell processor, I think they're a lot more enticing, because there's just that much more power under the hood that people want to explore %26ndash; I think the techheads will look at the specs and say, well, let's try and unlock all of that power What do you think to this?[/QUOTE]
Its like saying ''Lets try and get that cat to play the piano.''
you would hope all devs are trying to do this with both machines.
There is no such thing as future-proof, and every developer tries to unlock a systems power. This smacks of marketing hype.
[QUOTE=''cakeorrdeath'']you would hope all devs are trying to do this with both machines.[/QUOTE] Maybe it's my imagination but it seems most devs complain about the PS3....heck didn't one just flat out say they give up and won't release a PS3 version of their games? Sony should have known this was going to happen, why Sony didn't have an upgraded dev kit ready to go within a year for all developers is hard to understand. Why do so many people struggle when you see games like Uncharted........why not share how they were able to make that game (same with Insomniac)
PS3 1st party devs will always make desperate statements as to make the PS3 appear to have that ''power that sets the console above the others'' just over the horizon.. Its always just over the horizon for Sony. There will never be some magic piece of code that unlocks the horribly developer unfriendly hardware architecture. The problem with the Cell architecture is that even if a SPE-centric API is developed, the hardware is too specialized to efficiently process the code. The only thing a good API will do for the Cell is to make it EASIER to get the power out of it at the expense of efficiency. Companies are already doing this (look at all the multiplats that run better on the 360).
As much as i love my ps3 ihate all this sony PR bull and propaganda. Stop over promising and start delivering. JESUS H. CHRIST.

[QUOTE=''SpruceCaboose'']There is no such thing as future-proof, and every developer tries to unlock a systems power. This smacks of marketing hype.[/QUOTE]indeed it does. killzone 2 is seting iself up to fail big time because its basically become a sony propaganga vehicle. the more i see of it the less i think its way ahead of any other game graphically.
Sorry but the PS3 is just weak. It has a weak GPU, tiny amount of ram and an overhyped cpu. There is no power there unless you render really small environments. The same applies to the 360. They are both showing their age now. I know that's not what a lot of you want to hear but it's true.
this game's been in development so long that it no longer looks impressive. i think that gears 2 and resistance 2 look better
I say good luck to them.
Well, I found the key.[img]http://clipart.peirceinternet.com/png/key1.png[/img] It shouldnt be very hard to unlock it now.

So...does a game like Warhawk count as a ''really small enviornment''? Or how about Halo 3? Or Far Cry 2?

I'm saying that it can only achieve outstanding visuals if the hardware is rendering small environments like heavy rain for example. Warhawk - doesn't impress me with it's graphicsHalo 3 - Yes if it was displayed in a higher res than 640pFarcry 2 - I'm not holding my breath for the console version
This just in:Game developer says ''Lol forget the PS3, let's just develop on the Wii to make some $$$ and gain fewer gray hairs in the process!''
less talk, more do
