How about some good news and you grab the IGN article that shows how the PS3 version of Oblivion is way better than the 360.

Faster loading times by double, tons of Graphical improvements. That would be cool.

Honestly, from those pics it looks "softer", not sharper at all. And where is the AA? Cool the 360 gets the shader fix as well.

It should be noted that most of the improvements that have been made to the engine for the PS3 will be added to the 360 version in an update, including the distance shader.

Also, the memory architecture of the PS3 won't allow as many objects in the game as well as some of the mini expansions, which the 360 version can, although they had to be bought.

You might wanna continue with the 360 version though because as of now, Bethesda says they have no plans to bring the Shivering Isles to the PS3.

Yeh but they won't fix the horrific loading issues, because they used the ps3's hard drive to cache data, and we all know they can't use the 360's hard drive due to the core not having one. So better loading times on the ps3 version.

Oh and shivering isles will come to the ps3 version, it's only a matter of time.

Where did they say they were fixing the shaders and graphics? Please tell me. Show me a link. I didnt think so. Stop inserting your wishful thinking as fact. I own this game for 360 and loved it. Since I just got a HDTV (with 1080p) I decided to put it on the other night after about 3-4 months being away. The imperfections in the graphics showed. And now I read the IGN article about how the PS3 version is improved. Makes me start to consider purchasing this game again.

There was an article about a week ago, that was explaining how the developer was able to basically, put duplicate data all around the disc in order to make it easier for the blue ray to read, and thus have faster load times.

The picture looks really bad, not sharper AT ALL! *

@4: those "limitations" you cite were made up by Microsoft, that's old news. Any programmer knows that this is a programming, not a hardware issue. It is simply a matter of whether the developer wants to code specifically to ps3 cell and multiple processors, or to one processor with 3 cores (which tend to overheat said processor *cough* 360 *cough*).

^^^You have no idea what you are talking about. Developers have said that the PS3 has major limitations. It has less available RAM than the 360 and it's GPU is definately inferior. Not made up by MS at all. I guess you still want hope that the PS3 is what Sony hyped it up to be, but you are now realizing it is not. So yeah, Oblivian gets faster loading times, but damn, they've had an extra year of dev. time to do so. Again, the PS3 graphics will always be limited by its RAM and GPU. Its CPU is a beast, but has nothing to do with the graphics. Whats the point of having a killer CPU when your GPU cant pump it out. Remember the PS2 had a better CPU than the Xbox, and we all saw how the graphics turned out.

"and the 360 fans are out in FORCE today!"

Anytime their is great news for the PS3 the Xbox 360 defense force has to put their spin on it. Xbox 360 Losers can't leave it alone, they gotta try and find a flaw and milk it to death.

Personally I could care less what happens with the Xbox 360.

You won't see me reading up on the Xbox 360 and attacking them over at their fan sites(Xbox360fanboy.com)

Get a clue Xbox 360 fans, you must have clicked on the wrong link as this is a PS3 site!

On a side note, this game looks awesome and I can't wait for it.
