[E3 SONY] Was the PS3 really Shown at E3 ? Xbox 360 and PC Used ?

[N2PGames]

Two interesting reports have surfaced on the web, one which comes from IGN stated that a supposed demo of Assassins: Creed for the PS3 was reported to being run on Xbox 360 hardware. The article has since been removed but one MaxConsole reader managed to salvage the quote, next up TheInquirer are claiming that Gran Turismo for the PS3 was NOT actually running on the Sony console but a PC!

Here is the quote from IGN's article which has since been removed...

Ubisoft Montreal revealed its next incredible project, Assassins: Creed, exclusively for PlayStation 3 at E3 this year, much to the delight of Sony console fans and to the dismay of Microsoft consoles fans. Ubisoft officially would not comment on a possible Xbox 360 version.

According to sources close to the company, however, there are potential plans for an Xbox 360 version at Assassins: Creed sometime in 2007. Additionally, Microsoft sources who asked not to be mentioned by name, claimed the demo, hidden behind closed doors at E3, was running on an Xbox 360 using a third-party USB PlayStation controller. The game system was hidden in a stand covered by a sheet. Again, Ubisoft officials would not comment.

​

Next up is a claim by leading tech site theinquirer that Gran Turismo HD was running off a PC not a PS3...

Look closely at that title, it is object rich, interactive, happy and pretty, everything you would expect from a next gen title on a next gen console.

Has Wii seen the marquee launch title? Has wii found the dev team that managed to crack the cell coding puzzle? Found the next Jeff Minter? What did the Gran Turismo team do? What did Sony do?

Well, the version of Gran Turismo, ostensibly running on a PS3, is really running on a PC. Is Sony trying to tell us that a PC is a better gaming platform than the upcoming $600 beastie, or is it the other way around?

Either way, this would be very embarrassing for them if it got out, so make sure not to tell anyone.
