360 Reaching It's Limitations

Not suprising at all but, According to Kotaku.com Rod Fergusson from Epic thinks that his company is close to squeezing the last few drops of graphical performance from the Xbox 360.
With any console, it takes developers a while to learn how the thing really ticks so they can start exploiting its potential in ways even the designers may not have envisaged. Now that the 360 has been around for a couple of years, Fergusson thinks that Epic may be reaching the limits of that potential, but that consumers will still see improvements through to 2010.
"I'm not the technical guy," The Gears 2 producer told Gamasutra, "all I know is that with the two to three more years of optimization that we've had, we're much further along than I think, three years ago, we thought we were going to get."
He may be right — and Epic certainly know a thing or two about good-looking Xbox games — but you only have to look at the PS2 to see how a console can live some way beyond people's expectations.

Reflection: Personally, I dont believe that Xbox 360 is this generation's PS2. What games does the 360 have? Halo is overrated, half of the games like Gears of War, you can find on PC, so it isn't a true exclusive. Games like Mass Effect, Bioshock, Eternal Sonata, Lost Planet, and more are jumping ship to PS3, and the rest...Too Human was rated poorly and so was Infinite Undiscovery, and Fable? well Fable 1 was broken promises and very short. What do you have left? barely anything worth mentioning.

I believe 360 has reached it's limit technically too. Mass Effect truly showcased this, the game was pushed to its limit. Developers spent nearly 3 monthes polishing it, and either it came out still unpolished or that the hardware couldnt run the software. tisk tisk. stupid xbots.

in the end we shall triumph

in the end there will only be PS3
