I said my PC is better, not better at running game: IE, I get true multitasking, an open platform, choices of software and systems to use.
But whilst we're on the point, no, my PC runs games better too. It also has hyperthreaded 8 core processor. My memory controller is also integrated into the Core i7 chips to make CPU-2-Memory access much faster. I have a better, faster GFX card with more onboard memory and many gigs more RAM running in triple band config as DDR3. My hard disk is much larger and I COULD upgrade to solid state to make it faster.
All PS3 games are developed on PC first - That's where they conduct there unit tests.

Bottom line - your pc and my pc, at their current specs, would not run uncharted 2 at the level of detail, resolution and frame rate that it dies on the ps3.

I'd like to see it try and run Uncharted to at 1920x1080 res at 35+ FPS .. Aint gonna happen... Consoles are limited. My PC will kick it's ass. The cell processor for example is quite powerful, but has minimal L1 & L2 cache, and the memory controller is still on a seperate chip - and they must communicate frequently -- AND it's a 32bit channel so bandwidth is limited. PS3 gamess *CAN* and *DO* look so good because the develoeprs know that EVERY PS3 out there can run it -- Unlike with PC games which have to cover a wider range of systems. *IF* a PC game was made JUST for high end machines (Similar to Crysis), using 64bit bandwidth technology, Optimised DX API calls & shaders and fact memory access, My PC could out-do the PS3 anyday -- it's just that these games aren't being made -- Not that I care because Gameplay > GFX.

Smack down time... bottom line, my overclocked ATI 5850 pisses over everything any of you noobs are likely to own for the next year (PS3 cant touch DX11, i've ran some new tessalation demos, frack me they look good.). Might shove another card in just for shitz and giggles, have you lamers crying in your sleep /end of message bitches.

Actually, I imagine the PS3 is capable of running games better than your PC... yeah, but only @ 644p

Uncharted 2 runs in 1080p (1920x1080) in ridiculously high detail, it's gotta be like at least 2x FSAA and it's well over 35fps, with no slow down.
Pwned?

Erm.. No Stuart. Uncharted 2 runs in 720p -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncharted_2-- Nothing to be ashamed of when you're sitting away from a big screen.. But still, My PC could render those graphics at 1920x1080, no probs. The best looking game i've seen on PS3 myself is Heavy Rain (granted, not seen that many games - But GOD DAMN those faces look REAL!) - and even that was actually planned for a PC release as well --- But money changed hands and it got "exclusivified"

The uncharted 2 visuals are the best I've seen in any game, way better than heavy rain

Anyway, back on topic. Red Dead Redemption last night was awesome. Basically me, si iain and terry made a posse in a public free roam game. We rode around doing some gang hideouts and stuff, but the best was when we could see another posse doing a gang hideout. So we'd naturally turn up, ruin their party and turn it into a war Roll in with all 4 of us in a stage coach, "Death Coach" One particular gang hideout is "Fort Mercer". Literally, a mexican kinda fort thing. We fought our way in against the NPC's and crowned ourselves Kings of Fort Mercer. Couple of other posse's decided to raid our Fort. Hell No! Fight lasted ages, holding off those muppets, keeping them out of our damn fort! It's a pretty fun game, and the single player has engaged me like no other game for a while, probably since Uncharted 2, where I am compelled to play on. Red Dead Addiction.
