Part three of the DF Retro epic - PlayStation 3: Chasing the 1080p Dream - drops today, with Gran Turismo 5 leading the pack:
Welcome to the third part in the biggest DF Retro episode we've ever produced - a year-by-year look at how 1080p gaming fared on the PlayStation 3. Launched in 2007 touting its then-exclusive HDMI digital interface, Sony layered full HD gaming on top of its Cell processor and RSX 'Reality Synthesizer' as key selling points for its third generation console.
However, the 1080p dream would not die, kept alive by the release - finally - of Gran Turismo 5. Half a decade in development, there was the sense that Polyphony Digital pushed hard with this one.- perhaps too hard. Beyond the whole premium car/standard car divide , Polyphony's ambition was not matched by the power of the console.
Our third chapter of our voyage through the PlayStation 3's full HD library encompasses 2011 - and the beginning of change. Sony itself led the charge with the exceptional, if not wildly successful, PlayStation Vita, with Nintendo following up with its 'challenging' Wii U console.
