Epic: X360 reaching its limits

Posted on Tuesday, 2 September 2008 by Speed, source: Gamasutra

Gears 2 getting close to X360 limitations

Epic's senior producer for Gears of War 2, Rod Fergusson, stated in an interview that he believes developers are reaches the upper limits of what the Xbox360 can deliver.

I think we're certainly approaching the upper end of it, as far as what developers are able to do with it, but just looking at all the demos we saw today -- ours and others -- it's clear that all the games just keep improving, and keep pushing that bar.

Before Sony fanboys start raving already, I do have to say that's not all he's stated.

There will be games in development that won't ship until 2010, and I'm sure they'll look killer, just because, again, they'll have more time with it, and learn from mistakes and optimizations of others. So, I don't know; I think we're getting up there, but I still think there's room to grow.

Seeing what is still being made for the PS2, I think there's room for improvement and optimization for any platform, just as long as you keep developing for it and learn from mistakes.
