Tom\'s hardware weighs in on best console!

[nO-One]

I\'m don\'t like Tom\'s hardware that much.I prefer sites like

http://www.arstechnica.com
[H]ardOCP.com
http://www.anandtech.com

those are my favourite hardware sites.
http://www.firingsquad.com is also quite nice,altough they are mainly a gaming site,not a hardware site but they do have hardware reviews.They have also done a number of PS.2 articles,and game reviews.I trust them.

do you really believe Visual COncepts, a company that has only developed for 1 console and now 3 or 4 is going to write seperate engines for the same game.


Do you realize how much effort goes into getting a game engine up an running 100% on 3 or 4 seperate and different platforms with in a years cycle

That would be the #1 way for Sega to discover how to lose money being a 3rd party developer.

I\'m sure both EA and Visual Concepts will tweak the engines to show off some of the strengths of each console, but to make the statement you did is being naive to reality of game developing from a financial standpoint

What I meant is they should at least tweak it on the next platform. I mean each console has it own streanths. And Ea has to push out 3 games on 3 different platform.  So I am guessing they won\'t bother to even try. Just rush..rush to get all 3 games out and that is lazy. Look at  NBA live and Madden. Look at how undeveloped those games where. Ea just seems so lazy to me now of days. The characters in madden look like these big old linebacker dorfs. I am just mad because I have been a big  fan for so long and I expect more out of EA. But lately they seem lazy to me.

Toms hardware is a well respected COMPUTER SITE, but they know fu*K-ALL about console gamming.

Hah hah hahh..  Bob, when I first saw your name on this forum, I assumed you got it from Tom\'s Hardware.  I guess it was a coincidence.

That is correct, it is a coincidence.  I got the name Bobs_Hardware my first day on the internet, when the only sites i knew about were hotmail and some crappy australian game sites.  And my name is much more comical, grrrrrr :rpissed:
