fasty1 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) In all the game footage ive seen the game looks absolutely stunning, but the xbox runs it so smoothly, wth???

Time and experience is the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You speak as if the 360 is suckish.I have a 360 and its absolutly fine.Your a ps3 user arent you? cant we all just stop arguing about which console is best? EDIT: meanwhile check out how many bloody people are on this forum O.o Edited October 27, 2011 by TheMysteriousTraveler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hector530 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 because it was made to be the main console for it, PS3 will have more trouble with it with its weak 252mb vram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasty1 Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 ^^ pc .. but im just scared that skyrim is going to be a poor port like oblivion, even though i surpass the req requirement the game will suffer due to poor optimization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMysteriousTraveler Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 ^^ pc .. but im just scared that skyrim is going to be a poor port like oblivion, even though i surpass the req requirement the game will suffer due to poor optimization. how about lowering the graphics a bit and getting rid of stuff like shadows and stuff in the distance to make it run more smoother?

Fonger Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 ^^ pc .. but im just scared that skyrim is going to be a poor port like oblivionsuggested (not minimum) system is a quad core does xbox have quad core if not then they did something when they ported Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasty1 Posted October 27, 2011 Author Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) why do i have to do that when console dont have to? I mean i have a 6950 and 3.3 ghz quad core, why do i have to sacrifice performance and visual quality when my tech is better? It makes no sense.

Elsarian Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 That isn't the only case. The 360 version of Skyrim can be optimized to run better and faster because the consoles can be optimized more due to the fact that every 360 is the same. No 360 is different than the other (recent 360's I mean). Whereas Bethesda can only optimize the PC version just so much so that the game will run on most pc hardware. See what I am saying? It is very hard to explain really. And plus, 360's are built as pure gaming machines. PC's are not even if you are using it for just gaming. A computer's operating system has to take more into account than just games and so on. That is why i can not wait for the day when there is a machine that can game as powerful as a computer with the simplicity of a console. A hybrid of sorts. And be able to mod the games and so on just like you would on a PC except you would also have the simplicity of a console. That would be nice would it not? But anyway, yeah. The consoles can be more optimized than a PC because there is no difference in hardware, whereas there can be tons more people on PC's who are using very different types, so Beth has to optimize the game just enough to accommodate a wide variety of hardware. I hope all that answered your questions lol. I know it was a lot said. But you should be fine if you score above the recommended requirements. Pete said that the minimum requirements will get you running the game, whereas the recommended requirements will get you playing on high. So if you are above the recommended, then you should be fine!
