Was the code in this game optimized for a PS3?

The JP reps speak less and are more formal, the U.S reps communicate a lot more often.

You're babbling. Stop bankrupting yourself with more nonsense. It's plain as day you have no idea what you're talking about.

To the OP: I have no idea. Wish I could "like" your sig, though, you get automatic points for the Hitchhiker's reference.

I remember hearing about the crystal tool and seeing a little movie about it, but I haven't heard much since.

Ugh. The code monkeys at least need to be engineers as does at least one or two designers.

If that is true, that would explain a lot. Like bad features/designs passing QA.

Office space was good. :)

well most likely gonna use heavy duty compression on everything. and max out the every on the ps3 that has a cache. more pop up with the graphics that they'll try to hide when fading in and out
ps3 has 512mb of ram, 7 core processor that atleast 5 years old by the time the game comes out. people who put a SSD in there ps3 will will get the best preformance since that will help the processor from having to bottle neck while searching the drive

Lorda day did someone just get whooshed on an Office Space reference???

I hear a lot of people saying the JP programming talent doesn't have what it takes to compete in this generation of videogaming. It's certainly concerning to see the crystal engine give them so many problems. I think someone from square officially admitted that if they had to do it over again, they would have never made the crystal engine.

Cryengine 3 is ridiculous.

Why do so many people try to answer questions they really don/t know the answer to?

Please stop making wild statements without sourcing them.

No point to speculate. Just wait till PS3 release

What problems did the crystal engine give them specifically?

Also did they have one of their best programmers make it or one of the new guys? It makes a difference.

alright I was interested in your post until I saw your signature, wtf is that? it looks like the alien from splice. seriously creepy, and it makes my stomach turn a little bit.
