Okay, I don't see how these 2 games could be ported without using a super computer.
Halo 3, 6.8 GB in total. Okay, add in multiplayer features for that, You're looking at over 10 GB. Add in Halo 3: ODST, and you've got almost 17 GB worth of wasted data.
Really, Graphics Cards would have to be the top of the line. Really, the only thing I know of that can possibly run it is an iMac. Windows Vista kills processing power, and Windows 7 would have to be updated alot to support it.
...not to mention the fact that we'll have to have DirectX12 or 13 in order to run it.
I really just don't see it.
LMFAO
Kid, listen up. An Xbox 360 pales in comparison to even mainstream gaming PCs these days. A 360's GPU is locked at DirectX 9, and the entire system uses only 512MB of shared GDDR3 RAM. A videa card would definitely not have to be "top of the line" to run H3. I could see GeForce 8 series cards running H3 just fine.
There are PC games out there right now that beat the crap out of H3 in terms of processing and graphics power utilized. Crysis, for example. Explain how Ubisoft made that game look more beautiful than H3 ever could and DX9 systems are running it.
exactly and the only thing making the xbox 360 run games so well as it is, is it has its own operating system that manages 3D API's thread termination and memory managing better than a PC's but that's just because a PC's OS has to be more open for change in those areas due to different programming styles with different programs.
The Xbox 360 is a gaming system and intern is made efficiently for gaming. The PC has the slight draw back that it is optimised for multi-tasking rather than gaming. Xbox 360 though I have to say is worth having one. I recently sold mine because I hadn't gone on there in a month I kind of miss it but upgrading my PC sure has more ups than keeping the 360.
