“We’re Pushing PS3 Big Time With Battlefield 3″ – DICE

And it continues. The tired talk of developers maxing out PS3. Vertically every developer has claimed the lofty thing, yet, nothing beats Uncharted 2 and Killzone 3! This time the big talk comes from Battlefield 3 developer, claiming they’ve juiced out the console to its limits.

“We’re very confident – we’re pushing the [PS3] hardware big-time. Of course, we have a performance budget that we have to hit,” DICE Producer Patrick Liu said in a recent Q&A on the US PS Blog.

“Everything counts into that: the scale costs performance, destruction, animation, special effects…those are all the things we cram in there. I feel really good about where we ended up with on the PS3.”

id Software’s said the same thing. Crytek’s said the same thing, so you’re not alone on that notion, DICE.

What do you guys think? Straight talk or rubbish?

Thanks, GB.
