I haven't decided if Windows 7 is better than Windows XP yet. I guess it just depends on whether you are playing GTA IV or not. GTA IV IS THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, GTA4 aside, Fallout 3 runs sooo much better on Win7 64 bit. NFS Shift runs better, and the list goes on.

PS3

be honest 360 versions better in every aspect

but both look ugly compared to pc version at a decent res

 

ive tried xp 64 and 7 64bit both have similar

max fps but for me personally windows 7 has less of a drop off of fps monocle.gif

THIS IS WHY I THINK GTAIV RUNS BEST ON PS3

If u own a crapbox360, then u r just adding fuel to the fire. Cause 90% of todays devs have microsoft sh*t splattered all over their f*cking faces, due to all the serious $$$ass kissing$$$. So from now on, pc games are going to made around that piece of sh*t. Better games were made for both pcs and consoles, when a game was made for pc then ported to consoles. So ur probably right since pc games will never get better than a crapbox360.With that being said, I am proud to say that i never bought a xbox and never will. rampage_ani.gif 3 RINGS OF DEATH TO ALL CRAPBOX360S !!! rampage_ani.gif

While I agree with you I have to admit your prose and tact are unmatched. Congratulations. suicidal.gif

How does someone with your level of education even afford a system capable of running GTAIV?

 

Again, I agree with your sentiment but you do yourself no favors by talking like that.

It's hard to compare Windows OS's because they use a different DirectX version. Making the graphics API an integral part of the OS is bad for many reasons, one of them being that you have to upgrade the OS just to get the new graphics API.

 

It's really no surprise that Windows 7 may well be faster than Vista, since Vista was poor from the start. As for XP, well that is DirectX 9 only and we'll never really know what it can be like with a fully integrated DirectX 10 +.

 

At least with OpenGL it doesn't need you to upgrade the whole OS, it's just a driver upgrade and even the 6 Series NVIDIA cards support OpenGL 3.1.

Sorry but you fail. The PS3 has a worse GPU than teh Xbox 360. You seriously got brainwashed by Sony's bullsh*t.

http://www.ps3power.com/xbox-ati-vs-ps3-rsx.htm

 

But then, I bet a troll like you won't and can't read an article with facts and not some made up bullsh*t.

i dont give a rats ass which console runs the game better.In my opinion they both suck.So please read the entire thread before you open your dumb ass mouth again!

I got Windows 7 Home Premium 32 Bits and my config:

 

Intel Core 2 Duo e4500 3.02GHz

3GB RAM

ATI Radeon HD3850 256MB!

 

Game always has 30FPS on Medium/High Detail (Shadows High, Textures Medium other on medium)

 

With 64Bit i can't start game (game says: Unsuported Driver) so i buyed Home Premium 32 Bits!!! Game runs bloody awesone, no more crashing when in multiplayer, no more errors, no more bugs, and no more stuttering and low FPS!!

 

On XP i got 20FPS, so when i installed 7 i got 10-15FPS gain!!! smile.gifbiggrin.gif I'm so happy! (Running on 1.0.5.0)
