Epic: Xbox 360 Limits Being Reached
The Xbox 360 may be at the end of its limits, as developer Epic recently revealed that the studio’s titles are starting to reach the upper end of the console’s abilities.
Talking with Gamasutra, Rod Fergusson, Gears of War senior producer, said that he believes developers are nearing the limits of what the console can do, though he believes that games will continue to look better as they spend more time working on the platform.
“With the two to three more years of optimization that we’ve had, we’re much further along than I think, three years ago, we thought we were going to get,” he said. “So I think we’re certainly approaching the upper end of it, as far as what developers are able to do with it… It’s clear that all the games just keep improving, and keep pushing that bar.”
He concludes by saying that “there’s [still] room to grow,” noting that there are games in development that won’t ship till 2010, and that they are surely going to look “killer”.
