Assassin’s Creed Xbox360 Has Better AI
September 30th, 2006 Posted in Adventure, Simulation, Strategy, Xbox 360
Assassin’s Creed developer Ubisoft says that while the Xbox360 and PS3 versions are “nearly identical”, the Xbox360 game will have a better AI system. According to an IGN article, Producer Jade Raymond says,
“The hardware also allows for improved threading, which will improve even further the crowd AI,”
The article only mentions “crowd AI”, and not enemy AI, so the difference is probably insignificant. However, it suggests that the Xbox360 hardware is easier to work with, as the chip architecture is simpler to that of the PS3.

What … nothing from Shaka yet? I was certain he’d come up with some “interesting” facts that dispute this.

PS3 hardware is just more complicated to develop for thats all. Right now it is but as time goes by they will find more ways to use it to its full potential.

I think for now games will be beter (and better looking) on the 360, but in the future, developers will be able to take full advantage of the Cell, and make games like never before.

You may have a point there Jim2K … which is why I’m waiting about 2 years before I purchase a PS/3. I figure by then the devs will have a much better grasp on how to utilize that cpu.

While the Xbox 360 version gets all bogged down with their AI, the PS3 will be busy rendering 7 million Gigapixels per millisecond in 2070p!
All previous posters are nothing but Nintendo fanbois.
The Xflop 360 will die within 2 months, Wii will be in the bargain bin and PS3 will rule the world, then we’ll see who’s laughing.
All facts, people!
(Sorry, I tried to do my best impression, but I couldn’t think of anything ridiculous enough.)
