wow.. i am so drunk now that i've got a flat screen the 360 kills the ps3 for final fantasy.

drakes fortune looks like crap compared to too gears 2 not to mention the 1080p up scale of everything..

ok bye

[livpool]

one has to wonder if hydro has actually played those two games..

Yeah, I have both of those games and love both my systems, I'll agree for the most part the up scaling of everything is win on the box. I hope, wish there was a way for PlayStation to update and add/fix this. But I will have to say hands down no room for argument Uncharted 2 looks better than gears and yeah gears was serious fun... but really, HEY everyone lets play GEARS FOREVAR!>! yeah get over it. It was fun,... but meh COD:MW2 FTW, on XBOX too , but only because my friends are playing it on box,... I buy most other titles on PlayStation for my trophy score.

Anyway and on to the ACTUAL topic of this post I just signed up for the beta tester thing and I so hope I get to beta test this... preferably on PlayStation 3 as my computer is getting kinda suck and needs a upgrade.

This just made my day. Now all I need is to win that Chocobo xbox live avatar prop, and to get invited into the beta to finish off the year.

PLZ guys you should to better inform your self.Upscalling does not lead into a 1080p game !! If it is a 720p game then it is still a 720p game right after upscalling to 1080p. Uncharted 2 is a REALL 1080p game.Show me one single game on the x360 looking like that. You couldnt becouse there is no single one !!And you guys forget the fact that FFXIII have 1080p vids for PS3 and 720p vids for x360?

Upscalling doesnt lead into a 1080p gfx.And if i play a game on 720p on ps3 or upscalled 1080p on x360 doesnt matter.The GFX is still the same for one and the same game. You guys have seen the gfx demo from the new Crysis3 engine?With tec demos for x360 and PS3?There you can see wich of both is powerfull then the other one.Becouse the engine have really high quality gfx and the x360 couldnt do the same like the PS3.

Can't wait for the beta to Launch!

How'd this all of a sudden go to talking about upscaling and stuff lol. Anyway, was the original FF XI any good? I was never into 3d mmorpgs (I was stuck playing trickster online), so I was wondering how the FF online games stacked up compared to the rest of the MMO world
