Other God Of War III PlayStation 3 exclusive details unveiled include Add-On Content, 1080i support, Mature rating (Intense Violence, Nudity and Strong Sexual Content) and "Making Of" Documentaries.

To quote: "As seen on the back cover, God of War III will support three resolutions: 480P, 720P and 1080i.

Furthermore, 5 MB of hard drive space is required. It also states that the game will have Add-On Content, Challenge of Olympus, “Making of” Documentaries and other features."

God Of War III for PS3 is currently available on pre-order for $59.99 and will begin shipping on March 16, 2010.

There are almost no console games which run at 1080p, almost all are 720p. There is a big difference between 1280x720 and 1920x1080, realistically consoles use absolutely ancient technology. The PS3's RSX is based on the nVidia G70 which by video card standards is older than dirt.

I wish PS3 games were $60 here, after taxes it'll be $80. The special edition will be $90-$100, we get robbed here. Good thing I don't want GoW 3!

I don't think it was ever official or they said they would try to do in 1080P.

Given the attention to detail, I'm just happy if it runs at stable 720P 30FPS/60FPS variable!

Gran turismo 5 will be at 1080p, so the rsx can support this resolution.

Of course it supports 1080p, otherwise you couldnt watch hd movies in 1080p lol

its only a matter of gameplay, the GoW guys prefer using a lower resolution to avoid slowdowns i guess.

that's right, take a look at pc games now with decent graphics is almost unplayable at 1080p because it take a lot of graphical power to display 2073600 pixels changing 30 or 60 times a second.

i personally would prefer a game to install most used data of a game to HDD to help prolong the life of the laser and as well help games run smother.. because games like gta you can really hear the laser going at it all the time.

You couldn't be further from the truth, 1080p is becoming the monitor standard and most PC gamers don't settle for anything less than 60fps.

My monitor resolution is 2048x1152, a notch above 1080p and the last console game which was released to PC which I bought (Street Fighter 4) ran with all settings maxed out (including filters set to 16x) at well above 60fps (I don't remember the number) but it doesn't matter since I play with vsync on which locks at the refresh rate, which is 60. Without the filters on (and vsync off) the game was running at 250fps using max settings.

Games made with consoles as the main focus have relatively low requirements.

What is your computer (CPU, GPU, mobo, RAM, etc)?

You're comparing apples to oranges.

A gameconsole is a closed system with set specs that was designed years in advance. A PC is open spec and constantly being upgraded with the latest processor & graphics card. A PC is also much more expensive especially when you happen to have a dual vid or more rig costing hundreds of dollars.

Let's see what a PC can do that costs you only $299..price of a ps3.
Then you can compare.

What does that have to do with anything we're talking about? I was just pointing out to him that maintaining 60fps+ at 1080p on a PC isn't nearly as difficult/rare as he thinks it is, it's rather standard.

Its not magic, FF13 used the hard drive's system cache for its files. This is to prevent your system from bugging out when you "run out" of hard drive space.
