Brütal Legend - PS3 vs 360 comparison

Gameswire has added a 23-image 720p comparison gallery of Brutal Legend, showing that despite being practically identical, there are minute differences in favour of the 360 version.

[gameangel]

I'd guess that once again, the 360 was the lead development platform then?

[Vicodin]

Another multiplatform title that looks best on the PS3.

You have to wonder why Microsoft made the Xbox 360 so hard to program that the PS3 version of multiplats always looks the best.

Not that it really matters. The game sucks.

[I did not murder him]

I disagreed because it doesn't matter if the 360 is the lead platform or not.

[edwineverready]

Did you play it. it's really fun and fresh. @vicodin

[josuttis]

Yep, the PS3 version looks significantly better.

Too many other amazing PS3 exclusives to care about this novelty game. Something to pick up a few years from now from the bargin bin. Maybe.

[LONEWOLF231]

WF?!?!
Are you guys blind??
The 360 version looks better than the PS3 version!
The PS3s jacket textures look washed out......which is kinda weird actually.......seeing as most of the past games both version look just about the same.

[Christopher]

Time to argue over some more screenshots!

Honestly, I'll wait for the Lens of Truth comparison. Those guys at least take the time and have a modicum of understanding to determine which are better. Regardless, it's unlikely that either will really be that much different from another during gameplay. Unless, of course, you really want to find things to b*tch about.

[josuttis]

The PS3 version looks significantly sharper and more detailed. Something definitely went wrong with the 360 version. You have to wonder why the 360 is having trouble with such a graphically mediocre title.

Maybe they will come out with a patch for the 360 version to fix the graphics up to the PS3 version's level?

[Perjoss]

does not matter which platform is lead (ghostbusters looks better on 360, ps3 was lead platform), Gabe Newell was right, the ps3 is too hard to develop for, thats why when you spend equal time developing a game on each platform it always comes out better looking on 360. The list is endless but most notable was gta4 with its lower resolution and jaggies on the ps3 version.

(bring on the disagrees and ignores, it only confirms that my comment carries significant weight)

edit: and dont forget to remove bubbles, i never asked for them in the first place.

[Real Gambler]

Both are very close... And amazinly enough, the article say that the PS3 may be at a lower resolution... So I took picture 23 where you can clearly see and count the jaggies on both version and they come almost identical! (Though vertically, the PS3 may be a bit short...). No matter what though, both have huge jaggies (even if the article give the edge to the 360), so much that I think it's pictures from the same console, one with meteor and one without (so they had to take another shot), then they either made a huge mistake or they are toying with you.

As far as I am concerned (keep in mind I only looked at picture number 23, mostly under heavy zoom), both are pretty much the same and both are pretty bad.

[Microsoft Xbox 360]

I'll let you guys dish this one out. Looks pretty useless as this game sucks anyway. The high end multiplats run better on the PS3 anyway. Simple fact right there.

[SupaPlaya]

but I can't tell any big difference at all. On top of that, once the game get going, you probably won't be able to tell.

EDIT
------
Interestingly enough, all the comments above me have more disagrees than agrees, even though some are for 360, some are for PS3. This is interesting.

[AKNAA]

Okay, first off, the differences are so minor that this should not even be a debate of wether or not one version looks better than the other..

secondly, This game Rocks! I was kinda sad that the demo suddenly ended when I was really getting into it!.... Unfortunately though, this game falls on the same release date as uncharted 2, so maybe a few months from now I'll buy it....

[sunil]

looks at the screenshots - says to himself "Wow both look exactly the same"

comes to comment - now confused !

[ThatCanadianGuy]

LMFAO

I love how in every single thread "I did not murder him" is in, anyone that said anything slightly anti-360 has 7+ disagrees.

Meanwhile, he's showered with agrees while he's surrounded by people that hate him.

Edit: Cue the disagrees ! LOL!
You're too predictable POG ;)

[jack_burt0n]

Gameswire:

Lost Planet 2 better on PS3
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue much better than Forza 3
Brutal Legend a little bit better on 360

just stating their facts.

[aaron5829]

I dont know, Gameswire does not get my trust.. ever since they labeled gt5 pics as forza 3...

So... yeah.

[IaMs12]

Lol the only way you are going to notice the difference is sitting here actually looking for it! When you play the game you wont notice any difference at all. I still find it humourous though that since the 360 version was declared "Winner" the PS3 fannies to give a Rats A** about this game and going back to play there "Next Gen when WE say its Next gen games"... GTFU

[likedamaster]

The PS3 version is disgusting. Jaggies are much more noticeable on the PS3 version. And textures are blatantly better on 360. I bet the fanboys won't say so. Oops, looks like I spoke too soon.

[SIdepocket]

How can anyone think the PS3 version actually looks better? It has no antialiasing and somehow the 360 version still has sharper textures. Judging by the comments, methinks josuttis and Vicodin are the same person. LOL at the leet trolling.

[The XBOT]

Face it PS3, the xbox will always have a better gpu, and games that do not overstretch the consoles will aways look better on XBOX at most times. Games that do stretch the consoles will look better on the console that has the resources. The PS3 has its strenths and weaknesses and so does the xbox. See I can be objective right?

[slayorofgods]

Good job developers of this game, you know how to make multi-platform games right.

[mastiffchild]

Meh. Neither look amazing and it isn't what Shafer's games are ever really about in any case. The 360 and PS3 both have some issues and I couldn't pick a winner if I sat there all day-nothing to see here. Declaring either the better looking veersion is entirely down to which particular issue bothers you more and seeing how even then any differences are minute AND both consoles can do better anyway is there really any point to comparisons like this one.

If there's something glaring and one version is a lot worse meaning it's gamers get short changed then fair enough but when you really have to stretch just to see any kind of "better" looking version is it really worth the effort?

Pointless, imo.

[Zydake]

I'm pro PS3 but 360 looks better and lol @ so much hate toward jack black, the game, and I did not murder him ROFL. Some people won't like this game cause it's about metal if you guys didn't notice. People in our time are all about rap techno country and Spanish music, and basically this game is for the gamer metal fans. One last thing. OZZY FTW

[nycredude]

Isn't this game releasing the same day as UNcharted 2? If so what retards!

ALso I looked real hard and it looks pretty much the same to me. The only thing I can take out of this that is definitive is that it looks not so great on both consoles.

[Myth]

But i have to admit the PS3 version is way better looking than the 360 version. May have to break down and go get a PS3.

[Marceles]

Gotta be honest, the 360 version looks better. The staircasing is more noticeable on the PS3 version. Look at his hair and face on the PS3 version and then look at the 360 version.

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

[leeger]

i honestly couldn't tell the difference, whats up with all the fighting again?
:HUGE FACEPALM:

[house]

they basically look the same guys but it can go ether way

[Elaine Benes]

Why'd you quit? Foreman is an @$$.

[edwineverready]

I am a ps3 fanboy, but 360 has the edge. Still going to enjoy this game on my ps3.

[Tewi-Inaba]

:P

[edwineverready]

I am a ps3 fanboy but i am not blind. Textures and aa are better on 360. maybe final game will be different.

[Tewi-Inaba]

I was poking fun at the random disagrees people just put out O_o

[_vx]

im a die hard Xbox fan and i can say the PS3 has way better textures (see its really easy) anyway this game is an average at max predict 6-7/10 for it, pass for me

[madpuppy]

whole game makes me want to puke. the guy really is into himself.

there is only one movie I enjoyed that he was in and in that movie one scene.

The Jackal,

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

[slayorofgods]

There is a pixel on the a$$ cheek of animated Jack black that isn't as sharp and clear on both versions. Clearly it is obvious which version of the game I am going to be purchasing.

[jessupj]

Gee, I've very suprised to see so many people hating on this game so hard. I think it looks awesome fun. A hack and slash with RPG elements, can't wait to play this one.

[Voice of Reason]

The differences are pretty tiny. 360 version looks a little smoother I guess, although I reckon you won't be able to see the difference when it's in motion.

[iown-ipwn-ikill]

i heard that is to do with whatever both consoles do when screenshotted. ps3 uses something wierd, makes it look worse than it actually is

[fishd]

No one didn't give a sh1t about this game(for shame).... until now

Just wait and see,150 comments, here they come!

[edwineverready]

I hope people buy this game because the producer also produced pychonauts for ps2 my all time favorite game, but that did not sell well. PLayed the demo for brutal legend and loved it. people do yourself a favor and play the demo it's free :)

[JD_Shadow]

They actually gave a sh!t since Bobby Kotick became a douche about it and tried to prevent the game from being released after Activision passed on it.

[Isaahc]

although a ps3 only owner here,I admit the 360 is smoother. Anyway that won't stop me from buying as a metal head.

[UncleJaysus]

The difference is very small. In the jacket mostly. And the badges.

[Pandamobile]

The difference is very small. The 360 version has a little bit more anit-aliasing, (you can notice it around the eyes) that's about it.

[I did not murder him]

This site is known to try and make the two versions of games as close as possible with screenshot placement and zoom(try to make it seem like PS3 versions are close or better) You'll have to wait for EuroGamer's comparison to see the real difference.

[TheBand1t]

Funny, you were praising their GT5P VS Forza 3 article when it favored Forza, but now it's not a reliable source?

LOL

[I did not murder him]

I figured it was about time you would put on the TheBand1t mask. Whatever you said I'm sure it was some shady smart ass comment that makes you feel good because you have some nut-case vendetta against me I did not initiate

[Baka-akaB]

Fanboy or not , no one is that dense or delusional .

It's pretty obvious imo now that he's doing it on purpose and having some massive fun .
Hell i wouldnt be surprised if he was one of the worst ps3 fanboy as well .

[iown-ipwn-ikill]

@ i did not murder him

yeah, euro gamer can be trusted... idiot

[TheBand1t]

I'm pointing out that you were singing praises about thise site when Forza 3 and GT5P were compared and Forza came out on top, but now that they say both versions of a multiplat look more or less the same, it's unreliable.

You're the last person who should be accusing someone else of smart ass and snide remarks, btw.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

@ I did not murder him

Don't act innocent, everyone knows your a troll. What I want to know is how you went from 1 bubble back to 5 though.

On Topic:

I legit cannot see any differences. Good game they made.

[BlackTar187]

On a another thread as soon as i wrote something about him i had 4 disagress Right away with in a minute and the person below me as well and then i posted again and its the same 4 disagrees with in seconds. Its obv. he makes account to fill his bubbles unlike me who try and be fair and cant seem to get any.

Ohh well. I murder him totally avoided me in the other forum when i call him out so don't expect anything different here.

Cool its this close but at full speed like 99% of these the differences are not worth the time is put into these things but hey everyone has a job and they must do it. theres a demand for these comparison so i don't fault the website for doing them

Game looks fun.

[Baka-akaB]

lol it's funny , look at how everyone get disagree in spades , when some of us are usually quite ignored or left alone ...

He even use his accounts to agree with himself and disagree with others , how very cute

[YogiBear]

I pity you.

[likedamaster]

Bu bu but teh Cell... Bu bu but teh Bluray?

LOL. I'm messing. I don't see but a minor difference. I'm sure game will play great on both consoles.

Btw, check out my exaggerated first post above. Relax and have fun, isn't that what games are for?

[poeo]

i only tried the PS3 version, but it had some pretty bad framerate issues, and accessing in-game XMB during the demo made the game freeze every time for like 10-20 seconds (not kidding)... unacceptable. i hope that's not an issue in the full game.

i liked the game though, felt fresh and was genuinely funny at times (and humor is VERY hard to do well in games).

[madkrazygames]

it's in the xbox version too

[jesuisankit]

Its gonna be an amazing game.

[Sangria]

I regret having played the demo, now i know it's f-ing awesome and i'll have to wait two long weeks to play it. Painful waiting.

However, i noticed the french voices were not really good, they used cartoon-ish voice actors, including the dubber of Cartman in South Park for Eddie's voice (hopefully we can set up the original voices, my beloved Jack Black :3 ).

[Shaka2K6]

.

[Saaking]

I'm very interested in this game; however, I agree that the bots are very lame. They brag about mutliplats yet PS3 exclusives such as KZ2 and UC2 are unmatched by ANYTHING on the 360. It's really pathetic.

[NecrumSlavery]

Played both demos. PS3 version looks better but I am so fvcking tired of devs mapping the PS3 and 360 equally in controls. 360 using triggers on bottom. PS3 gamers use R1, L1 for primary triggers but since devs always map the controls to 360, we are stuck shooting an driving with the damn R2, L2. Please map the 360 trigger controls to R1,L1.
It's uncomfortable to use the bottom triggers to play this game.

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

KILLZONE 2!!! ;-P

+ The Demo was Funny i thought. Silly and Funny + lots of Blood. It was ok.
(Brütal Legend Demo i mean)

[Belasco]

am what you guys call a bot, and I have no intention of even downloading the demo for this piece of crap.

[trancefreak]

@ Necrum i feel the same and thats 1 reason I hated fear 2 controls felt way to unbalanced. I like battlefields layout/ and killzone 2 on alt 2 the best.

[AngryTypingGuy]

Necrum, that's one of the reason's why I like the 360 controller much better. Sony copied MS's analog trigger buttons...but if they primarily use the R1 and L1 buttons for triggers, why did they make the L2 and R2 buttons analog?

And oh yeah...360 wins...again. :-)

[swiftshot93]

The fact is there are no differences between good multiplatform games these days. The only way to tell the difference is to have them side by side, and even then its hard to make the differences out. And isnt that defeating the purpose? No one WANTS differences.

[Baka-akaB]

Imo every multiplatform should use the advantage of each platforms it's on while overcoming their weaknesses .

IF i got more space on my ps3discs then throw me some extra bones ... if my 360 got more ram or anti aliasing effect , then give me some visuals extras .

I find the whole attitude of current multi platform devs very unhealthy and hypocrite .

This industry didnt build itself by having Megadrive's aladdin team holding themselves back for the inferior Snes version . And vice versa for a few games that couldnt handled super 7 mode .

[Saaking]

Ps3 version for me.

[borgome]

Look at all those jaggies on the PS3 side, what a shame indeed.

[AliTheBrit]

Whats new?

Multiplatform games almost always turn out better on the 360.

[Saaking]

@ali the bot

Yep, and PS3 exclusives look miles ahead of anything on the 360 so what's your point?

[AliTheBrit]

^ Were you dropped on your head as a child?

My point is MultiPlatforms turn out better on the 360

and when like 95% of all games are MultiPlatform, it matters.

The fact of the matter is, each console only as a small handful of worthwhile exclusives in a year, Multi-Plats make up the bulk of games.

And since when where graphics everything? or are you one of these tards who call themselves gamers but then make out as if amazing visuals = amazing game

Try harder.

[CernaML]

There you go again with that best version on the 360 bullsh*t again... Excuse me while I go back to my PC game that renders in NATIVE 1080p with 16x AA for a HUGE sum of $200 for upgrading a 2 year old PC! Boy PC gaming is sooo expensive.

@Ali: When it takes complex technical equipment to notice those differences (Digital Foundry), then no, it DOESN'T matter if the 360 version gets 2 better looking pixels than the PS3. Most multiplatform games look completely identical. Wasn't the PS2 the weakest console of last gen with not-as-good-looking-as-Xbox games? Well what happened there? Also, graphics DO matter in this generation apparently. What's with all of these graphics comparisons for EVERY multiplatform game ever released? I never noticed them last gen. If graphics didn't matter then why did you say that it mattered if the 360 gets them better 95% of the time? Nice contradiction. Maybe YOU should try harder.

[TooTall19]

CernaML has nothing but valid points. The PC version of a game will almost always be better than the console version of a game. Cost is not related.

[CernaML]

Seriously buying1999? Are you that retarded? I had onboard graphics last time. I had a GOOD reason to upgrade. I didn't do it just for the hell of it. My new GTX 260 should last me for quite some time. I mean... if it can already surpass what the consoles can offer by miles, then why should I worry about upgrading every two years? If you want to talk about costs, then how about the fact that you pay more for console games? You pay for DLC while PC gamers usually get them for free. We get free (and superior) online play. We get free mods while you get nothing. We have cheaper and higher quality (external) HDDs, bluetooth, headsets and wifi adapters. You have nothing but proprietary and overpriced pieces of junk. Amost anything can work on PCs. Now... if your paperweight can get the same performance as my PC for $300, then you have something to brag about. But it doesn't. And sometimes the performance I see on 360s and PS3s are God awful. So kindly stop talking out of your a*s. I pay a little more, I get a bigger bang for my buck. Same applies for the people that want the most out of a console by getting a 60" Plasma/LCD with 7.1 surround sound speakers. Now excuse me while I go play the BEST VERSIONS OF MULTIPLATFORM GAMES. lolololol

[CernaML]

You're STILL commenting? Do you not know how to read? I said I won't need to upgrade this PC for years to come. It already outperforms your precious 360 by miles so why bother spending more? Excuse me for having a job and being able to afford my own godd*mn things.

Cernbutthead and Piss Cee. How cute. Did you lose a few braincells thinking that up? Because they are hardly even worth being called puns. Maybe you should finish High School before trying to act like the right one. You're not.

The reason why I mentioned costs was because you were the jacka*s that brought it up the very first time I replied to one of your idiotic comments. I KNEW that you were going to bring it up again so what I did was mock you. I can't give you the cost of the machine because it was 2 f!cking years ago and I was gradually changing parts here and there. Now I finally have something I like and it only cost $200 this whole year. I didn't spend thousands on it, so you have no point to backup.

You said that you will be able to enjoy the best multiplatform ports which is FALSE. That was my point.

Now you say that you'll be able to enjoy the best console ports? Whoop dee f*cking doo. Like I said before, when it takes complex technical equipment to find these differences between both consoles, then I don't see why it matters whether or not one console looks slightly better than the other. You don't have anything to brag about. Both are identical to the human eye. bragging about one texture being sharper than the other or one being brighter than the other only makes you look like a fool. One has 2x AA and the other doesn't. Whatever. There is hardly a difference whatsoever.

"A fool and his money are soon parted."

This is MUCH more suited for you. When Microsoft constantly makes you pay for an online system (which isn't worth it) and a full priced expansion pack then you are the actual fool. Not me.

I have a question for you, so you paid $300 for your console. How much did you pay for your TV? Or all your games that cost more than PC games? How long have you been using Live? Did you buy any other overpriced accessories such as a bigger HDD, extra controller, wifi adapter? Or are you just a cheapskate with a 15" CRT and have a 40 foot Ethernet cable running from your neighbor's house? I'm just assuming since you like to be very insecure about what *I* use *MY* money for.

[thefirstmann]

Geese Cern. We get it. You're a guy that can buy whatever he wants and play it on PC. Good for you. You didn't have to write a novel. I read the comments on this reply and YOU were the one that brought up cost first. Buying was simply talking about console vs console. That's what this post was about and he's right the 360 version does perform and look better than the ps3 version. I'm sure that the PC version with your brand spanking new video card will look the best. But Personal Computers aren't mentioned in this face-off.
I could see your argument if he had mentioned PC in his first comment but I read it all and I just didn't see that. Move on.

[TheBand1t]

Anyway....I played the demo and the only thing that irked me was some of the sound effects. They felt off.

[Panthers]

Ummmmmmmmmmm

They look the same to me. Its not like this game is trying to push either platform.

[Knightofelemia]

The chick is hot but to mee both screens look the same

[LinuxGuru]

After about 15 minutes of flipping back and forth, the verdict is this:

+ PS3 has higher-quality HDR lighting, as it always does
+ PS3 has better and more self-shadowing
- PS3 uses Quincunx anti-aliasing, making overall image appear softer

- Xbox 360 has lesser-quality HDR lighting
- Xbox 360 has worse and less self-shadowing
+ Xbox 360 uses MSAA, making overall image appear slightly sharper

I would personally choose the PS3 version.

[_vx]

even though i totally agree with you i wouldn't recommend anyone to pick this title YET!, unless reliable reviews says otherwise

[DevastationEve]

So the PS3 version sucks...that's all you needed to say bub.

[LinuxGuru]

Actually, both versions suck graphically. This is not a visually appealing game, per se.

Oh and pull the Micro-$tick outta your ass, because anyone with a pair of eyes can see what I pointed out is true.

[Elvfam511]

You Got Owned

http://i106.photobucket.com...

[DevastationEve]

Oh I know it, huh...jeez wow! I got so owned! Guru there totally opened a can or two on me...gosh. Wow. Man. Gee. Who woulda knew...unfunkingbelievable.

Umlaut's are evil anyway, we all know that.

[Thoreau]

i am not getting this game anyway. just thought i'd peek at the screen shots. looks ok.

[kaaos666]

good music cool idea but i just got done with the demo and this game sucks.

[RockmanII7]

http://images.icanhascheezb...

[snake-OO]

personally i think this game has rubbish graphics on both consoles

[B00M]

To be honest both look like sh!t XD

[I_LOVE_MYSELF]

I shouldnt even bother saying anything...

What do you expect? The 360 just has better looking games at the end of the day

[LinuxGuru]

"The 360 sometimes has better looking multi-platform games at the end of the day"

say hello, to name only a few.

wake me up when the 360 has ANYTHING that can come close to competing.

until then, enjoy your stale Unreal Engine 3 Gears of War wannabes.

i'll take games designed from the ground up for a console any day.

back in 2007, your argument would have had some weight. now, it's lighter than a feather.

[likedamaster]

@Figboy(and Linux please mind yours)

1st pic... So they've finally decided to match the ps2 version with a bright color palette. Other wise, look at Ratchet's tail... 2D at its finest. And game is still boring and monotonous.

2nd pic... A lot of smoke & mirros is what I see. Oh and its really blurry. Textures in that game are noticeably terrible. And characters look like gray blobs compared to Gears, etc.

3rd pic... Looks like a ps2 God of War game with higher resolution. Also, seriously, bigger bosses don't equal better graphics.

4th pic... You got me there. But even in this game I can easily point out MAJOR graphical and gameplay flaws. But for the sake of real gamers and love of the series I won't go there. Game on.

[mandeep1803]

Exactly the same.

end of topic.

------------------

[Figboy]

this is getting f*cking ridiculous now.

outside of the fact that there is practically NO difference between the two, shouldn't we be past this sh*t by now?

Uncharted 2, Ratchet 2, Killzone 2, MGS4, even inFAMOUS embarrasses the competition, and the multi-plats of the day are NOWHERE near the insults that the multi-plats of 2007 were.

seriously, i have excellent eyesight, and i just don't see the differences. we all know the PS3 and 360 have different graphics cards (i think the PS3's is NVIDIA, and the 360's is ATI? please correct me if i'm wrong, i'd like to know), but this pixel counting has got to stop.

this isn't like Ninja Gaiden 2 vs Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, where the differences were quite astounding.

you people need to grow up and let this sh*t go already. if you have to tape together two screens to point out that a few pixels may be missing on one version compared to the other, then something is wrong with you, and the difference is negligible.

[B00M]

GametimeUK - Jeez i thought there werent still people like you around. Evryone knows the PS3 has better graphics.

[JonnyBigBoss]

Batman AA was the same, but on release the PS3 version looked better.

[likedamaster]

I disagree. Demos looked identical on both consoles. The Batman version that was obviously superior was the PC version, in every way.

[harpua]

This game looks like sheet.

[creeping judas]

Look it doesnt matter in the end

PS3 fanboy says "looks better on the PS3"
360 fanboy says "looks better on the 360"

None of these articles will ever sway a fanboy into thinking otherwise.

I loved the demo for the humor and will probably pick it up!!!

[Baka-akaB]

I find very funny that people fight over who got the better looking version of a game that isnt even really good looking .

That's how comparative have become worse and dumber .

The game is nothing to inspire awe in the 3d and graphic details departement ... it's obvious that it shines elsewhere , in the metal themed design and presentation , it's awesome concept , the awesome music and a pretty decent gameplay .

It doesnt need to be crysis to be great , so making the part that matter the least here , a piece of importance is silly at best .

[MeatAbstract]

PS3 or Xbox 360, either way you're getting the same game

I'll be getting this on the Xbox 360 as I need more games for it and I just downloaded the demo on XBL and loved it. Well done Tim Schafer

[_vx]

careful of over using your Xbox or the RROD will be waiting for you, i would say use it for HALO and the upcoming-next year-360 only games.

[B00M]

I own both 360 and PS3 and cant tell a difference. Of course therell be minor differences like the brightness or whatever but who cares? XD

[_vx]

the Xbox games star looking like Wii games when compare to PS3, actually people need to start comparing Wii games with Xbox games ,,and games on high end PCs with PS3

[RockmanII7]

I'm either getting this or Batman AA later this year.

[LinuxGuru]

You'd be wise to choose Batman: Arkham Asylum.

[likedamaster]

You can't lose with Batman but Brutal Legend is not out yet and also has multiplayer which Batman does not have.

[foreverflame]

The 360 version looks and runs better.Sorry PS3fags another inferior multiplat on the ps3.

[Saaking]

It's sad you bots are left with nothing but VERY slightly better graphics on multiplats (which PS3 owners can still play). Why don't you brag about all those great AAA 360 exclusives... oh, that's right, there are none.

[Elvfam511]

of only Mulitplatform games looking better wow

[Dr_Nefarious]

@saaking,

"It's sad you bots are left with nothing but VERY slightly better graphics on multiplats"

I would say you were right but you are wrong. Very slightly is too harsh of a word to be using. I would go with negligable difference. Because if you look close at the pictures what do you see. No difference. It would take some special equipment to tell the 2 apart and even then it would be near negligible. Point is 360 has nothing and never will have nothing on UC2 let alone UC1.

ITs PP the mentally challenged one who is best friends with Milo.

And yes when natal come out you dont need a controller. Just pull out your pp and theirs your joystick have fun.

Looks the same to me.

[PS3and4_HAS_GAMES]

funny how when it comes to multiplats which developers mostly make 360 the lead platform it takes a magnified split screen to hardly even show a diffrence but when you put a ps3 exclusive next to a 360 game the ps3 game looks light years ahead of the 360 and it clearly shows.. so for a console thats so hard to develope for it has to take a screenshot zoomed in 10x just to see that a wall looks darker than the wall of the other game..do you guys see how stupid that is and you xbox gamers go all crazy cause the wall on the 360 is a little lighter lmao..give me a brake

[AXAXAX]

Oh god, another ugly Unreal 3 Engine driven game.. can they just burry this thing to the depths of hell!??!

• Notice the better water on the PS3 version?

Second Image:

• Is there a whole mountain missing from the 360 version?
• But better 360 colors (especially the lava)

[Bumpmapping]

Both look like ass typical EA shovelware

[stuna1]

@Hellangelzx, you asked the question how i did not murder him went from just 1 bubble back to having 5 bubbles? He's a undercover moderator!!! JK, no I'm not.

[NecrumSlavery]

PS3 version looks better and loads a load faster. 360 version has glitchy loading between scenes and the colors aren't as clean as the PS3. This is from me playing both with hdmi on a HD LCD 120hrz TV

[trancefreak]

the ps3 sword pic looked so much more detailed and richer than its 360 counterpart.

[dkgshiz]

I'm not so sure about this game. I'm going to just rent it. UC2 is all I need. Yeah, this game has sh!tty graphics on both platforms. Give it a rest.

[NecrumSlavery]

I think if they went for a realistic look, it would of taken away from the game. But yeah the graphics aren't really great. The environments look great though. The game still captures that HEAVY METAL universe feel. I think I will be a solid 9/10 game.

[DelbertGrady]

And it moves at a good framerate as well. Tim Shaefer + heavy metal makes it a must have for me.

[NecrumSlavery]

and we get to murder tim in the game. woo-hoo!

[pippoppow]

But really no big deal. Both are virtually equal. Some games will look a little better on one platform or another. As long as the games are within 10% of each other gamers will not notice a difference unless heavily scrutinized. Diehard 360 supporters will claim that every multiplat that is on the 360 is superior no matter what because it is the one point they can hang onto when spewing their console of choice superiority claims, the fanatics mind you. Most multiplats look and play the same. Exclusives are where it's at since it really makes your platform of choice shine. As for the game itself, not interested even though I think it is 1.5 % better :). I'm sure Jack black and rock and roll fans will enjoy on either platform just like most other multiplatform titles.

[xabmol]

Already pre-ordered it. Can't wait till Rocktober 13th! Two epic games on the same day. Of course I'll be playin UC2 first though. :)

P.S.

Both PS3 & 360 versions look great!

[mark3574]

360 version for me

[DarkTower805]

The split pic where he's lifting the car frame is the best to compare. To me, the devs did an excellent job ensuring an even looking game on BOTH consoles. BTW, I thought the game was refreshing and Jack Black kicks ass.

[Enigma_2099]

... say what you want, but any shortcomings of any PS3 port can't be blamed on the hardware.

[MeatAbstract]

Its a shame so many people are bashing this multiplat, especially about the graphics as well. Who cares about this comparison? Its the same goddamn game.

Also, this is Tim Schafer, people! Monkey Island? Day of the Tentacle? Judging from the demo, he's done a damn good job of this so just get it on which ever console you prefer or have and just enjoy the damn thing rather then bicker about some screenshots that look exactly the same.

[Bigpappy]

There is no big difference. But there is one. This is not a reason to choose one over the other though. I don't think I would notice or care if I only had access to the PS3 version. As long as it is my type of game, I would get it.

[Hercules]

just agree

[likedamaster]

It doesn't matter, the ps3 fans won't buy this game anyway or games period.

[Deacon]

Xbots are defending this game because its the only thing they have to look forward to. We have both this game (which I won't be picking up) and Uncharted 2 to look forward to. Please everybody, don't dash the muppets hopes thinking they're getting a stellar game. I guarantee you that most PS3 owners would rather have Uncharted 2 than Brutal Legend. Fact.

[TheDeadMetalhead]

They look the exact same to me. =/

[TheDeadMetalhead]

They look completely identical. But of course, every 360 fanboy and their mother will be shouting "360 VERSION IS BETTER! IT HAS BETTER ANTI-ALIASING AND HIGHER TECKSCHUR QUALITY!!!!1111". >.>

[DelbertGrady]

They look identical. Everyone should get this game, regardless of platform. It's gonna be awesome!

[maspi]

grafically average.funny to play but where is the jump button?...too bad, an action game without the jump button is inacceptable...rent.

[Anon1974]

The "facts" are these. The best looking games graphically are on the PS3. If the 360's GPU was so superior, wouldn't the best looking games be on the 360?

Commonsense 1, Commodore 0

[commodore64]

The PS3 looks like it has been gimped slightly by the forced exclusion of AA that is looking pretty smooth on 360.

Congrats to the developers for making the game equally enjoyable on both consoles, but also for taking advantage of the 360 gpu, with better looking graphics.

A familiar story.

[thereapersson]

Uncharted 2 says hello.

Don't even try to pull that multiplats = superiority BS argument

[commodore64]

unfortunately for you, it is a well known fact that the GPU in the 360 is better than the gpu in the ps3.

The developers were able to demonstrate this in the superior version of this game, once again, on the 360.

A familiar story.

[PLAYstar]

What fact is there commodore64? Just because you stated it, doesn't mean it must be consider as a fact. Just because you read some BS articles indicating that the xbox gpu is better doesn't make that as a fact. A fact is base on what we have seen, we seen games like MGS4,Killzone2,Uncharted2 that no current xbox games could match as a competition in the usage of the gpu of the system. Unless you want to be stupid enough to go against the odds saying that Brutal Legend look better than those exclusives, well...? Until the xbox could prove that the gpu is superior, I think you should keep those facts to yourself.

[commodore64]

With regard to the respective GPU's, I suppose I'll let the numbers do the talking:
http://www.pcvsconsole.com/...
http://journal.pcvsconsole.... (additional info)

It's funny how you guys quote KZ2, UC2, MGS4 over and over again, yet fail to acknowledge the 100+ inferior multiplats on the same console.

Bruetal Legend is one further example to add to that list, in seemingly endless fashion.

These inconvenient truths are best swept under the rug, huh?

A familiar story.
;)

[thereapersson]

Posting articles and spec-sheets from 2006? You're really sinking to a new fanboyish low.

[PLAYstar]

commodore64, difficult to get into your thick skull ic.. Your stubbornness is blindly you, making you lack in senses. I've told you already, link such as those do not prove anything of what we've seen today!

We don't go around just simply to quote games. Those games deserve to be praise which is why we quoted them. You say we fail to realize about the inferiority of multiplats on PS3, but it seems like you're the one who is in deny, that it is not the console GPU being inferior rather it's the developers being lazy making easy ports. Games such as Oblivion and the latest edition Batman all proven that ports can be identical or better on the PS3(Even when the game is created with UE). Brutal Legend is a good looking game, but are you going to say it looks better than Batman?

What I said earlier, until xbox show prove with a game, the PS3's GPU is currently superior with games such as MGS4, Killzone2, Uncharted2. It doesn't stop there.. GodofWar3, Heavy Rain, Last Guardian will raise the bar again.

[Anon1974]

He can talk about his "hundreds of multiplats" that are better on the 360 (a bald-faced lie if there ever was one) all he wants, but the fact that the PS3 has just one game the caliber of Uncharted proves that the PS3 is a more capable machine and if anyone is at fault for underdeveloped ports it's the developers. That's it.

As for his "hundreds of gimped multiplats" lie he keeps parroting over and over and over again - The fact is, based on reviews scores - multiplats score better on the PS3 so far for 2009, and even back in 2008, 50% of mulitplats were the scored the same or better on the PS3 then on the 360.

Even in direct comparison sites like Lens of Truth, of the 37 games they've compared head to head, almost half were either the same as the 360 or better on the PS3, but that's a rather limited number of games. And even then, it's subject to opinion. LOT said Blublaze was a tie despite the games being identical except for terrible 360 control issues. In what world are control issues in a fighting game something you overlook in a comparison? Or Wolfenstein. They said the PS3 had better performance - but tied because it took 8 seconds longer to load between levels. In what world does game performance get cancelled out by 8 seconds of load time?

It's amazing he still clings to the fairy tale he invented that over a hundred multiplats are better on the 360. According to who? Eurogamer? We've got hundreds of professional reviews on metacritic telling us that so far in 2009, multiplat games are better on the PS3, versus one site that says "We swear to god, if you pause the game, way in the back a texture looks a little blurry."

Give me a break.

[thereapersson]

You can tell because when you look at the screenshots side by side, the 360 screenshot loads first, and then the PS3 version's side loads second. The PS3 has more aliasing, and I am also thinking it's rendered at a lower resolution.

[tnator]

I just love these PS3 V 360 graphic comparison articles. They're always so insightful and relevant. After all, how would i decide if i want to buy the game if it wasn't for this.

[Pillage05]

yeeeah, im gonna lose sleep over worrying about this... \sarcasm

but anyways...who is really planning on brutal legend being the graphical powerhouse on either console? of all the games to make comparisons on...why waste your time on brutal legend.

im not trying to say brutal legend sucks btw...im looking forward to playing it when i get a chance. demo was fun.

[tudors]

"looks at the screenshots - says to himself "Wow both look exactly the same"

I think the we should spam this article with your comment because I cannot see much if any difference, if ever there was a comparison that showed pretty much no difference then this would have to be it.

[Stryfeno2]

This needs to stop...Multiplats always looks better on 360 98% of the time.

[harpua]

whatever helps you sleep at nite.

[yorkie]

The difference is at best negligible. Looking at these shots side by side it is difficult to tell them apart. Lets move on.

[HypnoticMonkey]

Again it looks like someone "forgot" to switch on the RGB to 'full range'.

[lucifon]

Haha so many delusional fanboys in this thread. Played both the 360 and PS3 demos. Graphically both pretty much identical apart from the 360 has slightly better anti aliasing, but theres not too much in it.

However on a full surround system on the PS3 demo we did have some seriously low sound quality issues which weren't present on the 360 version, which is abit odd. Don't believe its an issue with the setup as every other game is fine on our PS3. Possibly just the demo for whatever reason. Awesome game nontheless! Regardless of console - buy it!

[PLAYstar]

Getting all over exaggerated over some screenshot comparison?? Who cares the xbox version is better with a pixel or two? When xbox don't even have any games that look better than MGS4, Killzone2, Uncharted2, Heavy Rain, God of War III, Final Fantasy Versus. We Xbots need some multiplat games to feel secure is embarrassing! BTW, where the F*K are the games?! xbox is getting drought!

[Belasco]

How wonderfully imaginative, This game is a turd.

[Bengoshi-San]

360 looks a tiny bit better

at this point multiplatform games look so close to each other that these kinds of comparisons are worthless unless there is a significant different (i.e. ghostbusters, etc).

[Xymes]

Yeah, the 360 version looks slightly better, but... Uncharted 2 says hi!

[ikral]

I dont care which one looks better, as long as my version looks good. I dont compare it, i play it.

[xg-ei8ht]

likedamaster -

Yeah the pc version of batman was the best, because it had floating bits of paper, the PS3/360 couldn't handle that/s

And to think, Nvidia asked for it to be installed so they could try to sell the cards,lol.

ROFL.

[devilhunterx]

The demo was somewhat funny at parts, filled with cliches and dull gameplay.

MIGHT pick it up in the bargain bin.

[Tanny92225]

Am I the only one that sees absolutely no difference at all? Textures look a smidgen better in some 360 screens but that's about it. The only thing that could make one better is if one has screen tearing and(or) a bad framerate

[Roper316]

If you own a 360, get it for the 360
If you own a PS3, get it for the PS3
If you are a multiple console owner, get it for your preferred console

[jack_burt0n]

Dirt 2 was an issue for ps3, this game isn't as ppl have already said its a trade off between lighting and aliasing people with an option will get the ps3 version.

All the lying in the comments makes these comparisons beyond worthless, at least ps3 fans admit pooch screws like ghostbusters but some 360 fans try and claim bionic commando, RE5, Ninja gaiden 2 etc dont look worse when they really really blatantly do.

[gumgum99]

They appear to be virtually the same with the PS3 version looking a hair lighter in brightness.
