Spotted this at PSU: http://www.psu.com/World-in-Conflict-+quot;virtually-identical+quot;-on-PS3360-News--a0003713-p0.php

The developer behind World In Conflict has said that they are “hell bent” on making the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the Real Time Strategy title as near identical to each other as possible.

Speaking with Videogamer.com, Vice President of Development Petter Sydow said that although developing the PS3 version has been more “challenging” than the Xbox 360 iteration, the team have committed themselves so that "gamers of either platform are going to have virtually identical experiences".
 
Cue flamewar... Though it is further proof that the 360 is the more codeable and powerful gaming system.

You say Cue flamewar and then you start it off yourself by making that statement.

I can see where it says the 360 is easier to code for, but where exactly does it say it's more powerful in that article?

He likes flamewars, that why he said it.

True, but then again having that wire across the room is just going to be annoying unless you fork out for wireless.

Not getting it anyway, got it on PC.

I read this and had a thought, *what about a powered usb hub with a wireless connection to the pc/console*, and they do indeed exist.

Still more money to a degree though, no?

Hardly worth it for UT3 which wasn't very good and one other game, unless you actually use you PS3 for web browsing.

Not at all, simply trying to counter the absurd sony fanboyism that has destroyed this forum. The 360 is graphically the more powerful console, the ps3 graphics chip is a slightly slower version of the desktop 7800gtx, (and it is just a desktop g70 chip btw, no modifications at all and the g70 was out of date before sony adopted it) and the 360 chip is a custom made ati chip that is faster than (though based on the same architecture) the x1900xt desktop chip. The x1900xt was faster and more capable than the 7800gtx, hence the 360 is the graphically superior console.

Looked into it further, *very* expensive and likely requires driver for the dongle, it doesn't act as a transparent bridge, never mind.

so what year did the 360 come out?

The 360 gpu is still more powerful, and if i grasp your 'arguement' correctly, you've contradicted yourself, the 360 was released a year or so before the ps3 yet still has a more powerful and newer gpu.

Fixed.

Seriously you can't accuse only the sony fanboys of being responsible for the state of these forums and then follow it up with such an utterly biased post, pot kettle black tbh.

PS3 is harder to code for, this has been known for a while, in terms of power they're near enough identical.

A fanboy comment is one that is backed up by no evidence, the 360 gpu is more powerful, the ati r580 series outpaced the g70 by some margin and the 360 chip is a slightly faster r580.
