He he. Gametrailers comparisons...
Anyone remember the whole Grid fiasco? It wasn't just that they were busted swapping PS3 video and trying to pass it off as 360 video, mistakes happen, but viewers noticed the crashes they were showing as the PS3 examples of the game seemed purposefully lacklustre compared to the crashes that used to showcase the 360 "version".

Makes you wonder how often these types of sites cherry pick these video clips and we just don't realize it. There was a similar case with Lens of Truth and their Mass Effect 2 demo comparison when viewed against the Digital Foundry comparison video, and when they ended up with different results. Really, these sites can tell us and show us whatever the hell they want.

If they had an agenda for some reason, unless they mess up badly like GT did with Grid and post the wrong button scheme so we know for sure they're using the PS3 version, how on earth would we ever know if what these sites tell us are true when you consider how close the console versions have been since 2009 for the majority of titles?

I remember Infinity Ward stating with COD4 that the only people who could tell the difference between versions in testing where the people who worked on the game. For the most part these types of comparisons only serve as ammunition for the ridiculous console wars nonsense, and these sites know it. Pandering to the console wars and writing divisive articles is the only reason some of these sites get any hits at all.

If you have a 360 and like DMC then you get it for the 360.

If you have a PS3 and like DMC then you get it for PS3.

If you have both then you get it for whichever one you prefer.

If you have a wii-u then....you're screwed.

Gametrailers LMFAOOO who trusts them after they been caught making ps3 look bad

pandaboy4115d ago

it doesn't matter that you bubble him up, the mods don't like him and keep him bubbled down... for better or for worse...

n4f4115d ago

@darth
if you only have the wii-u then you're save
you dont have to play that piece of you-know-what

aquamala4115d ago

Is it just me or is there another platform this game is on that nobody wants to talk about lol. Could the game look much better on that platform? Hmm

Couldn't really have said it much better.

"how on earth would we ever know if what these sites tell us are true when you consider how close the console versions have been since 2009 for the majority of titles?"

A better question would be, why do we even still care about these comparisons when you consider how close the console versions have been since 2009 for the majority of titles?

90% of people are just going to get it on the system they prefer for whatever reason anyway, unless there are some glaring differences, in which case I'm pretty sure the internet will let me know about it.

Bimkoblerutso4115d ago (Edited 4115d ago )

I honestly just check these for performance at this point. One version or the other sometimes has more screen tearing or slowdown than the other. It's pretty rare now to see any major differences, but then you occasionally get games like RAGE that have major problems on one particular system, so I still check just to be safe.

kevnb4115d ago

Better yet check out PC vs console comparisons, funky stuff happens there more often than not.

Murad4115d ago

Well they still got a 160 degrees on their article, that obviously means they are somewhat credible, or people are stupid enough to click the link.

testerg354115d ago

I'm not arguing with you, but does it even matter which site? Pretty much every site has been called out by PS3 fans anytime they give a low score to a PS3 game or like a 360 version better.

The videos low quality anway won't be able to tell.

Enemy4115d ago

Gametrailers still making comparison vids well after they got caught playing dirty. Wow.

TongkatAli4115d ago (Edited 4115d ago )

PS3 version is the 360 version, LOL, Gametrailers is so pathetic. Also the right side darkness was done on purpose to look bad to start a flame war, turn the brightness up jackasses, LOL.

Sarobi4115d ago

They don't look any different.. also Gametrailers video player sucks.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC3d ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Exvalos2d ago

What a weird name, it's essentially devil may cry, devil may cry lol

Cacabunga2d ago

Best to good for me: 3, reboot, 1, 5

2 and 4 are trash, didnt like any of them.
5 has very good gameplay variety but i hated the foes.. it is just insects the whole time. Reboot has the best foes for me

Friendlygamer3d ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6023d ago (Edited 3d ago )

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya3d ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde3d ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

SeTTriP2d ago

This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.
