Square Enix released some fresh screenshots (below) and new details on Nier RepliCant today- a PS3 exclusive slated for release in 2010 alongside it's counterpart Nier Gestalt for Xbox 360.

While there may be some truth to one of those arguments, no one should doubt the superior picture and sound quality the format produces.
Sure you can get a DVD player that upscales, but...

The game is BioWare’s first for Sony’s console. Last generation, the EA-owned developer made only a single PS2 game: third-person shooter MDK2.
