mmm... Architecture has nothing to do with programming (well they have a lot of things to do, but not in the way I meant my statement)...

Technically speaking the XXXBOX features a tremendous hardware (IMO at least) if MS is so dumb**** to make a bad use of it (because of bad programming, just to name an example) the problem doesn't lie in the architecture... kinda like what happened with the PSX2 at the begining of its life (though it doesn't feature such a great hardware)...

**Kane** · October 26th, 2002

The PS2 has problems because it's architecture is so far deviated from what programmers are used to. Architecture becomes a problem for the programmers there.

True... anyway, hope you can get my point now...

Syed Fawad · October 26th, 2002

So meant to say that a good hardware is of no use unless you got good developers?

Kaiser Sigma · October 26th, 2002

well... that's a rule that can be aplied to almost everything...

**Kane** · October 26th, 2002

What I'm saying is that the PS2 hardware is less forgiving than the X-Box hardware.

well... it was developed by someone who has spent most of his life with a computer...

**_E_** · October 26th, 2002

Also depends on the complexabilty of the hardware. Remember Sega Saturn? It had specs similar to the psx, but because developers faced hard time developing games for the Sega Saturn, they moved for psx instead.

PS: Psx is so simple, i used to open it alot of times and change the lens when it gets damaged. )

Kaiser Sigma · October 26th, 2002

yeah, but I think that the Saturn featured a hardware a bit more powerful than the one in the PSX...

**_E_** · October 26th, 2002

True, but whats the use as long as the developers didnt make use of it. Its just like the case with xbox. MS put too mush power in it and until now, dont know how to make use of it ( and that makes it look dumb

)

The Saturn 3d engine was based on Quads (it was the NV1) rather than triangles. It alowed you to produce higher detail 3d scenes, but it was awful to program for if you know polys. Polys were making headway mainly coz of the Voodoo...
