Essentially, they are having problems taking it from the 360 to PS3 because of the memory differences (surprise, this is a well known problem) and they are having a problem fitting it on a DVD. Hmm, one year in and Blu-ray is already a benefit. Who said it wasn't needed?

Also, this would explain why I have been severly unimpressed by the gameplay videos at this point.

but what good is that without enough ram? I don't understand why Sony and MS didn't throw a gig of ram in their systems...

Computers don't even have one gig or ram, the most I have seen is 768 this year.... Either way, they both have 512, which seems to be enough for the time being.

All computers are going with 2GB's of RAM nowadays. VISTA Needs atleast 2GB's to run properly.

I meant video ram... Sorry wasn't really clear. I don't think Games need that much system ram because their OS don't take up near as much ram as Windows.

That's what happens when you get laptops for two computers in a row I guess.

Yeah, all the high end Nvidia chips have 768 MB of ram, and that's what Crysis is shown on. Essentially, they blow anything hte PS3 or 360 can do out of the water.

Not quite out of the water just yet, but they are more impressive.

I think they can, they can pretty much run UT3 or Gears at 1080p at 60fps or higher.

Yeah, but I wouldn't call that 'out of the water'.
Just better.

But I'm sure when they really start digging.
PC games are gonna kick ass visually pretty soon.

Assasins Creed is my number one pick for the game thats going to dissapoint most this holiday season.

The idea is cool, screenshots look cool, that vid on live with the Ashcroft song looked cool, but I have this sinking feeling that this game is going to be garbage. I really have nothing to back this up other than some things Ive observed in vids Ive seen. But I wont be surprised at all when this comes out and its getting 5 & 6's out of 10 across the board. Hopefully Im wrong.

I agree, the combat I have seen in gameplay videos looks very underwhelming.

I agree, I just have this feeling that the game is going to dissapoint. Ever since the initial hype from the first video, those who have played the game don't seem very impressed. I hope I'm wrong though.

hmm... well I'm picking up the PC version either way...

still, doesn't look particularly good for a game that's supposed to ship in another month or so.

Maybe they shouldn't include 5 different language options in the 360 version and make seperate disks for each region.

What the hell, I don't understand a word of this thread.

The game's not going to get delayed over this, will it?

Yeah, I thought that was pretty stupid of them to not realize that.

Frankly I haven't been able to figure out what all the hype is about since the beginning. Its far from being a must-buy for me and will more than likely be a possible rental at best.

Because it's from the makers of Prince of Persia and that series was awesome.

Yeah, I guess that's why I never got into it cause I wasn't really a fan of PoP at all so that aspect of the hype didn't really do anything for me.

Also, one of the developers is attractive. She does press for the game, more people listen and the hype grows.

I think thats a big part of it. Jade Raymond is a honey bunny, and I love watched her hype the game, but that dont mean the game is any good.

Its like those two are drawn together, being the only two goodlooking people involved in game development, lol.


*edit* Completely unrelated, but Im watching Cowboy Bebop on Cartoon Network and they just had a piece of music that was the biggest ripoff of Pink Floyds 'One of these Days' that Ive ever heard!

I really hope you're wrong but I see it getting 7-8's for some reason. I hope it doesn't disappoint, since it's my number one most anticipated game this year....

Your avatar, sig, and screename kinda gave it away... ;)

I hope its great, but I cant shake the sinking feeling I get whenever I think about it.

Fantastic, another thinly disguised " X console is better than Y console" thread, good job OP :roll:

I'd imagine the game probably would have looked better if it had been kept exclusive to PS3, but money talks I guess so we'll get a dissapointing MP release, who knows what might have been.

The more I see the this game, the more "meh " it looks. I agree somewhat with the opinion that Jade Raymond has led to this game getting more press than it probably deserved. What suckers we are.

Ha ha true, although my s/n didn't really have anything to do with the game when I first made it. I just wanted something cool to go along with Silent, since that is my nickname. It does fit with the game though which is cool and another reason why I hope the hype doesn't kill it. ;) The combat does look weak but I do like the fact that it's like real life. If you get stabbed in the head in the game you die, just like in real life you would more then likely die. If they can just improve on the combat a little more, and make sure we don't have 100's of the same NPC's walking around I think it will turn out okay. At least I hope so since it has so much potential I'd hate for it it be a DMC2 so to say......

This.

That's also the reason Prince of Persia: SoT on the GameCube had such shitty-sounding audio, there were five full language audio tracks on a 1.5 GB disc. Ugh.

There we go. 360 is failure. I know when I play my 360 games here in America I always use the French language track :roll:
