    Keep in mind Op that this dx11 talk is just wishful thinking. Having worked with a person who did a ps3 3d mode I can pretty much say with 90%. Certainty that showing this number of on-screen elements is not possible on ps3 hardware. Doing 2gfx modes to a console game is an unrealistic but only possibility of 3d mode ever being possible.

    The only problem would be the amount of models shown which can be toned down if needed, the ps3 can do 3d, it supports 3d bluray, 3d games and 3d pics, Killzone 3 is 3d, GT5 is 3d.

    I do agree that the amount of character models shown can be a problem, but they just need a ps3 option to show less models with 3d switched on.

    Actually its not wishful thinking Seif. They will be adding dx11 support sometime after the 2.0 launch. Yoshida has stated that they want to do it. but including it in the relaunch would push that date back much further.

    I stand corrected, that's great news actually.

    But from what I understand they are not making the graphics technically better in 2.0 just visually better designed and optimized for lower end pcs.(?)
