2K Elizabeth on the Official Mafia II forums has this to say about the Final Build of the PS3 version of Mafia II:
"Hey guys,
When designing Mafia II, we optimized for each of the three different systems the game would run on to make sure the core experience was the best it could be. Because of this, there are some differences from one platform to the next. In terms of the PS3 version, I wanted to clarify a couple points you have been asking about: There will not be highly detailed grass or large pools of blood, the cloth movement is less noticeable than, for example, the PC version, and the visual fidelity in the demo is generally representative of what you’ll see in the full game. "
What pisses me off is we all know the PS3 is a number of stars above the 360 (the games show that) so y on earth should i hav 2 settle 4 second best?
Lazy development is my guess, its like, do u think they even played the both games after? "hmmmm, theres no grass in the PS3 version", "its ok, who-ever looks down at the grass anyway"
So now comes the wait for Fallout Veags :-(
Also, I love how some people bellow immediately jump to hate on a certain system, this time being the PS3, the moment articles like this comes out. These guys pop out suddenly.
Some like to say N4G is PS3-fan dominated, but let's be honest, it's pretty damn even.

[On topic]
I don't know how 2K will respond to this. I mean, we have seen better on the PS3. And simple things like these are signs of some poor development choices. Some devs don't learn or take note from previously made mistakes. You just can't develop for the PS3 the same way you would for 360 or PC.
I still think it's a good game, but come on.
Also:
"we optimized for each of the three different systems the game would run on to make sure the core experience was..."
I believe I've heard this excuse before too.
No excuses now, people said don't call them lazy etc if some devs find it difficult to code for, but it has been YEARS, there really is no excuse for this to still be happening in mid 2010!
I don't buy games from liars. I'll wait to get it used and cheap.
@Mandatory_Install
Oh noes! We have to deal with more content instead of grass!?
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
And you have to admit, with 2K members claiming identical versions and prettier screens from content EXCLUSIVE to the ps3 version, it was definitely looking like they would be identical.
Well the PS3 version was already proven to be inferior most often if the game is inferior in a demo comparison there is a reason one version is inferior and will be reflected in the final game.
Devs struggle with the PS3 so they started to cater to the lowest common denominator(PS3) using PS3 as lead so the PS3 would never have to struggle with the 360's advantages by default(despite PS3 being the lead in some games the 360 versions always matched or where/are superior). I see the trend is changing once again to the way it was.
Devs are starting to develop simultaneously again due to the fierce competition with other developers allowing them to get their best work out at the cost of different quality variants across platforms yet not held back by one platform across the board.
PS3 fans will do damage control in response to anything bad about PS3 you can never believe their damage control SDF articles that follow bad PS3 news or PS3 fanboy articles leading up to an gaming event etc.
the ps3 version may be inferior to the other platform and even though i agree that it shouldnt.. i dont think u guys should miss this great game
if u have a pc ... played it there same if u have a 360 .. but dont let this game pass .. i will buy it on ps3...
I have to disagree. Demos for PS3 are always compressed for distribution so the Ps3 demo does not necessarily have to reflect the finished product! The Ps3 demo for Batman:AA was inferior to the 360 demo, but he finished retail version was superior!
The 360 is tailored for compression, so highly compressed downloadable demos perform better, while the PS3 is tailored for streaming of uncompressed data and textures so compressed demos wouldn't generally perform well!
But considering that most multiplat devs compress the PS3 version of their games for no apparent reason(only thing I can think of is a straight port of the compressed 360 version), it is highly likely that you are right.
They finished the game they just turned some things off and downgraded some things in the ps3 version so ps3 could run the game.

In other words, many Devs and Publishers simply prefer to have less work/cost and put out flawed games than actually deserve those 60 bucks. Although it's a reason it's not a good excuse.
"The 360 is tailored for compression, so highly compressed downloadable demos perform better, while the PS3 is tailored for streaming of uncompressed data and textures so compressed demos wouldn't generally perform well!"
lol omg what a load of pure bull shit.
ORLY?? Explain why FF13 is inferior on the 360 then.

Unfortunately you are left with nothing else to do but focus your optimization on the 360 alone to make up for the lack of space and terrible processor. As a result, you leave the PS3 version on the shelf because it didn't need as much optimization.
In the end you have a PS3 game with very little optimization, and a 360 game that was optimized to death and barely runs anyway (Mafia 2 on 360 has no AA and terrible screen-tearing). That's the hard truth.
In this case they probably ran out of time and shipped whatever they had, which is terrible from a developer of their caliber... embarrassing really. No other words... maybe "pathetic", that also comes to mind. Instead of optimizing the PS3 version, they went with the quick fix of disabling anything they could switch off. This is an obvious sign that they paid very little attention to the PS3 game. Grass and emitters are not something you plan to cut, those are things you cut because you ran out of time.
I'm not buying this game. I was going to, but no amount of DLC in the world will cover this up. Even 360 owners will get screwed, sine their game runs worse than the PS3 version (at least they have the small details though)....
pathetic.
I paid it off on steam already and am playing through Mafia 1 for free while I wait for the superior version to unlock.
"Demos for PS3 are always compressed for distribution so the Ps3 demo does not necessarily have to reflect the finished product!"
Ridiculous. omg you failed so hard! XD
Demos are never representative, but there is no "more compression with the ps3 and it's leading to a biased representation of the game", you are saying bullshit.
When compared to PC and 360 (which are practically identical, PC's are just very, very powerful 360's), the PS3 is radically different to code for. In fact, whilst the PC version just needs a simple port to the 360, the PS3 needs an entirely different engine for the game to run on. This is of course very, very expensive as the entire architecture of the code has to be changed for a good PS3 port.
So what has happened here is that despite the above, the developers still just port the code to the PS3, but because of the different hardware of the PS3, the game has to be simplified a lot, only using 2 of the 8 PS3's processing cores and so on.
This is like having a Ferrari, but only doing 35MPH because there is a Horse Box in front of you.
computers have more power of course there will be some that will be able to play them at the highest settings
yet some will play on a lower setting much like what playing on the console version is like
it will have no effect on game play
So, I'm just not going to bother with this game at all. I'm not going to reward mediocrity.
Which games are those? I can tell you right now, nobody who's worked on any game that's actually licensed for both consoles would ever say such a thing. While it may be true, saying something like that would probably lose you your job or at least land you in a lot of hot water.
Also it's stupid. The PS3 would never perform twice as fast immediately. It's a completely different architecture. The only way it would perform better immediately would be if you programmed it poorly for the PC in the first place.
It could perform better after a couple months of work, but it would never perform better immediately.
That gives them less of a reason. If 2k wants to drag their feet then they will have to take less sales.
The PS3 can do Uncharted and GOW but can't pull off Mafia II because... DEVS
Oh, and there is no excuse not to fix this.
Yea the CELL may be harder to program for, if thats the case get more experienced people.
By the way, this goes for both systems, there is no reason for sub par multiplats on XBox neither. If you cant make them equal, don't make it.
The Cell might theoritically be more powerful, but you would never know it looking at the PS3's games. 2 games that look exceptional is pathetic compared to the amount of titles on the market. Oh well, 2k Czech isn't exactlly famous for making great games anyway.
The PC version didn't seem all that much better then the PS3, maybe a little crisper but I really didn't notice any difference in the grass or anything else for that matter.
EDIT: Just to be clear .... the PC version ain't all that shit hot either!
The Cell may well be a supercomputer when it comes to cranking out Fast Fourier Transforms or whatever other calculations, but it is not as good for general computation. Cell is designed to do fast computation on repeated calculations, not on memory intensive tasks.
This means that a lot of the current programming paradigms will not work on the Cell. You will have to redesign the software from scratch and this is no laughing matter. That is very costly, not to mention the learning curve.
Devs or not, Sony isn't innocent. This is the result of supposed "superior" technology introduced when the market isn't ready.
only xbox dreamers believe that kind of joke (it's less pathetic than others "ooposite world" examples, like "you have no games", or "x more powerfull than ps3", but always sad to see misinformed people trying to misinform others)
No it basically boils down to talent, and for the comparison of the PS3 I'll have to use the PC as an example. I'm using a Quad-Core i7 which is really nice, yet even Starcraft II isn't using it to full specs and Civilization 5 isn't expected to either.
I use an 8-Core for my servers yet many of the programs feeding through the system maxes out at Duo-Cores.
What I'm getting at even though technology has gotten better, human programming isn't catching up as fast and definitely not passing the current limitations. Moore's law is working for machines but human processing is still too slow, need to change on how one thinks about writing code.
Chumps
but its exclusives rival graphics achieved on very highend computer systems
ps3 in comparison with the 360 wins hands down in the graphical compartment of gaming
the xbox may come out with the most sales but the ps3 will be remembered as developers pushing it to its limits and creating some of the best games of the generation
Actually, NO! Your logic is kind of really far off base.
Human programming? I don't even know what that means?
As processing power gets faster and programming projects gets bigger, what do you think the developers will put resources into? Maximizing the performance or put more resources into finishing the product?
My point being, hardware (and hence programming tools) should focus on how a programmer can most EASILY take advantage of a available computing power. There is no point in exerting an extra 80% work, to squeeze out 5-10%! That is not economical.
why should less grass make a day 1 go to a preowned ?
Instead of looking for ways around the issues they had with the PS3, they left is alone and gave PS3 buyers some exclusive DLC. That's lame.
There are a ton of games coming out and that I have passed up, you have to earn my purchase. Thats is not how you do it. And since now that my 360 crapped out all I can play is my PS3. The PS3 version is like an unfinished 360 version and that's bull shit.
I don't think it's as easy as simply "finding ways" around the issues, it's clearly an issue about resources as well given how often it happens. I also think it's a fantastic solution to offer free dlc as compensation.
But if its more, then as a hardcore PS3 owner, I'm not gonna reward bad work, the same way I and others didn't reward Platinum Games for their crappy job of BAYONETTA.
Doing so will only encourage them to do what they did again.
I mention Platinum Games, because it looks like Czech 2K did the same thing.... they tied to get someone else do the port when they should have develop led the game on the PS3 in the first place.
http://www.massivebear.com/...
If they lose enough sales and critical acclaim and get embarrassed enough, they'll so it right the next time, and so will many other onlooking developers......they'll be to frightened not too.
Fear works wonders....Ask Platinum Games :)
i can only speak for the 360 version
aliasing is horrendous
game looks sub-hd
not very impressed
especially when you look at a game like red dead redemption, even though the ps3 version is sub hd, both versions look fantastic
I give them a day before they print something worthless called a "clarification." They need to understand that PS3 gamers don't like shovelware.
Far too many games from 3rd parties look great. This isn't 2006. Excuse value - 0. Sales from me - 0.00
Hmmm, the third party games you are referring to are likely KZ2, GOW3 and UC2.
Apart from those three, there is nothing that really shows us the power of the ps3.
As a matter of fact, for every ONE of your third party games that look really great on ps3, there are 20+ multiplats that are simply inferior on the ps3.
There really is no other way to put it.
We are halfway through 2010 and today multiplats continue the trend of being inferior on the ps3.
It has become one of the defining hallmarks of the ps3 this gen.
Don't get mad about it.
Just accept it.
I am sure Mafia II will still be a decent game on ps3.
The developer has stated that:
"Our aim is to make a cohesive and immersive experience and optimize the game for each platform so that it could run its best. And while there are some differences between each version, I’m sure you’ll find that the core gameplay and the heart of Mafia II remains no matter whether you play on PS3, 360, or PC."
There you have it - it'll still be ok on ps3.
It's not the end of the world.
morganfell why don't you tell the experts how to do it lol. people just won't except the facts that cell isn't all its cracked up to be
Whenever there's an article about a PS3 port that might have a slightly blurred texture or unnoticeable difference in loading times you'll find some fanboy who insists that this is the norm. 2007 was a long time ago, my friends. While there may be some versions that lag on one console, these are few and far between and it all boils down to opinion anyway. What makes a game superior? Better graphics, or 5% less screen tearing or load times or control issues with a faulty d-pad or paying extra to game online, etc...etc? It all boils down to personal preference.
Even the sites like Lens of Truth have commenting recently, even when they give one console a victory over another that "You'd never be able to notice the difference, even side by side." And what do sites like this compare? 5% of the multiplat games out there?
Differences between versions of software are inevitable when you're developing for totally different hardware - but most developers have it down so you'd never notice. Thankfully we have the internet to point it out when, if pausing the game and zooming in on that certain shadow to the left in the background - god forbid a texture is a little blurred on one version compared to the other.
I agree with Morganfell on this one. When it does happen, there's only the developer to blame. We know what the PS3 hardware is capable of because we see it proven time and time again.
Even uncharted 1 is better than most games on x360 and that was a release game but anyway enough of that here is my list that owns your entire statement
Heavenly Sword
Wipeout HD
GT5:Prologue (still better than forza 3)
Uncharted 1
Uncharted 2
Ratchet And Clank:TOD(was platformer on release)
Ratchet And Clank:ACIT(now is best platformer and no platformer is as good on x360, sorry)
MGS4
Killzone 2
Infamous (looks better and is better than prototype in every way)
Heavy Rain
GOW III
Multiplatforms that was better on PS3
FF13
Dragon Age
Batman:AA
UPCOMING GAMES THAT MAKE X360 LOOK LIKE SOMETHING FROM LAST GEN:
Infamous 2
KIllzone 2
Motorstorm: A
GT5
my list can keep on going on but carry on thinking x360 is superior when the best x360 could do is wake and was meant to make PS3 look inferior but only confirmed x360 has no juice left in the box 540p and 4XAA compared to GOW III 720p and MLAA (which is 16xAA to idiots), btw KZ3 AN INFAMOUS 2 AND LBP2 ARE USING MLAA SO NO MORE EXCUSES ABOUT IT ONLY BEING DOWN TO HAVING FIXED CAMERAS:P
You're as ignorant as ever man. You're so blinded by console loyality, it's almost laughable you try to tailor your writing to sound article. Laughable.
As someone pointed out, here's a list of games that throw your ridiculous argument out the window.
Heavenly Sword
Wipeout HD
GT5:Prologue (still better than forza 3)
Uncharted 1
Uncharted 2
Ratchet And Clank:TOD(was platformer on release)
Ratchet And Clank:ACIT(now is best platformer and no platformer is as good on x360, sorry)
MGS4
Killzone 2
Infamous (looks better and is better than prototype in every way)
Heavy Rain
GOW III
See? you're a nutty fanboy. Don't deny it. Accept it. I'm sure you're cringing inside.
Really... you have a piss poor laptop, played it on low settings and still looked better?
Bullshit!!
I thought the 360 demo had bad tearing and slowdown- until i played the PS3 version. I wouldnt put money down on EITHER console version, much like i wouldnt with the original mafia which was only any good on PC too.
There is simply no way i would play this on a console because of they way they run more than how they look. I just cant stand teary chuggy games.
I' m not bullshiting.
My laptop only got a ATI 3650, Core 2 Duo 2.5GHz.
Granted I had to lower the res bellow 720p to keep a playable framerate, but the image quality of the PS3 version was comparable to mine, and on top of that the PC version had "extra" stuff like grass and better textures.
Of course I'm not playing this game until I get a decent PC, but it is very sad the PS3 is in such a poor state.
Whats wrong with your ps3?! granted neither console version has vsync but the ps3 has less tearing pretty clearly.
So tbh i can understand them cutting the grass lol to get it even a little better, hell playing the pc version i had to cut the physx because the optimization was total shite if it worked at all supposedly it needs a new set of nvidia drivers.
I only quoted you,
" I have a piss poor laptop, played it on low settings and still looked better".
I would agree that it's comparable on pc at low settings, the only real difference that I could see at that level was the grass.
There has never been any doubt in my mind that the PC version is a better looking game, just not to the extent that most PC fanboys claim.Although I don't have the best graphics card yet either .... so what do I know?
'PS3 has less tearing' Well i'll leave that up to a technical analysis and someone with the tools to prove that but to my eyes it didnt. Not that im claiming 360 had less, they both seemed about as prone which was....very.
Even if PS3 does have a bit less, Its like saying someone is a bit less dead from a fatal accident.
All that tearing is still nasty
Plus physx on Pc is purposely screwed up by nvidia anyway so it doesnt run well on slower cards or CPUs
it's a good thing i didn't pay for the game with hard earned cash. i love trade-ins :)
would give a disagree with trading in games to get another? sad person.
GAMES for one new one I suppose.
are all here in full force celebrating minimal graphical differences between a PC version of a game, compared to a console version of a game.
These people all make excuses for the lack of visually stunning titles on their console, and claim that gameplay is of the utmost importance when it comes to gaming. Where is that attitude right now? I often see the people make excuses to flame by saying "so the ps3 s 'allegedly' powerful yet it can't do grass?!!?". Well in incapable hands, any tool can be misused. After seeing what it has to offer, how can a person come to the conclusion that 2k is the end all designer and developer of games, not a Naughty Dog, or someone trained in it? -- Thats right, none of you will be in that story commenting.
Yet, we see these people here today celebrating grass, and cloth movment? Its as if they have these uncanny eagle eyes when it comes to the differences in multiplatforms, but then they have mudvision when it comes to other titles.
Its amazing how people can't see things when they aren't avaliable on their console. Its a shame that 2k is lying about the PS3 version of the game at this point.
I'm going to sign up onto the forum and ask point blank, are the Screenshots on the PSblog from the PS3 version of the game, if so, why is there grass in the build, and high levels of AA that aren't in the Demo. 2k games is pulling a Turn10/Epic with this one, they deserve to be busted for it.
http://n4g.com/comments/red...
SilentNegotiator failed :P
I failed in absolutely no capacity, as all of the evidence was in my favor.
You fail, however, for believing that a demo based off of an old build was conclusive proof towards the final versions.
were not in 2007, sry but i wont buy your shitty port, im not even sure if im gonna rent it.
A guy who WAS on the edge of buying your game.
Proof is in the pudding. The PS3 pudding has less polygons than Xbox 360 pudding. This is a fact proven over and over.
Nathan Drake has 80,000 polygons while a character from Halo 3 or GoW has around 10-12,000
If u count the polygons of the screen plus a few characters. Nathan might still nearly have as much polygons as a shot from a 360 'exclusive game'.
Seriously, 8 years in development, and they can't even put in 3D grass or blood pools? Didn't devs master this about 10 years ago? I'm happy to see that cloth movement is in at all, but the lack of the other small details is a sign of pure laziness.
PS3 is a different beast, and will need awhile for multiplat devs to get used to. When the games are exclusive then thats when the devs can spend all their time perfecting it for that system, which is why Killzone and Uncharted can do alot on it.
dont be ridiculous with the old "PS3 is a different beast, and will need awhile for multiplat devs to get used to..." song.
it was "acceptable" in 2007....but now were in 2010 FFS.
Actually, these assholes did lie, claiming that both console versions looked identical, and even releasing doctored PS3 screenshots. They've only come clean about a week before release.
Sony knew when it choose the cell that its architecture would make it difficult to port software with other systems, they did it on purpose. It worked wonders for the ps2, keeping many games exclusive or at least having the superior version on the ps2. However, when you are no longer the leader, it works against you.
It's a shame too, I think ps3 is the best value.
edit: limited resources. 5 years behind on tech. do you really expect more?
Well lets see since both console versions, have been proclaimed as nothing special, by both ps3 and 360 owners and both consoles have their own superior graphical games.
Better coding would probably been appreciated by both ps3 and 360 owners.
But i am laughing at all the 360 fools ranting and raving about a "superior" multiplatform game, not an exclusive but a multiplatform game. Or trying to pass of a low tier multiplatform as proof of the cell's shortcomings, but they have apparently never seen gow3, uc1 and 2, killzone 2 visuals.
Okay really the boasting about exclusive games, is little more than each side boosting their own sides ego. But some of you 360 guys have gotten really sad, your fucking going on and on about multiplatforms being superior.
Are some of you guys so ashamed about your own upcoming exclusive games that you have to resort to elevating multiplatform games above your own exclusives, to use as ammunition against the ps3.
I didn't buy my ps3 for multiplats i bought it for sony exclusives, the good third party multiplats are a bonus.
The way you 360 guys on n4g have been acting the last few months, makes me believe, you care alot more about your "superior multiplatform games" than most of your own exclusives.
If nothing else thank you for the laughs 360 guys.
*Cancels pre-order*
http://image.gamespotcdn.ne...
It's either a bullshot or that Elizabeth haven't seen the PS3 final build!
Was gonna pre-order, now i am gonna wait for the reviews.
I guess you can do that stuff during development on dev equipment.
So they turn up resolution, turn on all the stuff, some effects, in result game goes 5 frames per second. Enough to take some awesome shots!
Damn you cant even be sure if this code ran on PS3, as they develop this DLC on PC's (just like everything else for consoles).
I really don't know how developers have the ballz to get a game out like this. They just look ridiculous and loos a lot of respect.
So, to some people the Xbox 360 version having grass makes that version leaps and bounds much better than the PS3 version. Well in reality it is not leaps and bounds better, in fact the game is not that impressive looking on any of the systems, so in my opinion the reason for buying this game should be based on its game play not on how it looks.
so no buy for me ...may be sometime later but not yet... and yep i am looking forward to fallout : LV.... loved Fallout:3
peace
I doubt I'll end up playing it regardless of graphics. I really don't care about graphics anyways.
For the love of god, learn how to write without numbers.
People might think you`re a 12 year old girl.
The 'lazy devs' excuse is pitiful. Look at games like Red Dead Redemption. Redifining open world gaming. A game that most other devs wouldn't have the skill or resources to tackle. Do you think they wanted the PS3 version to be inferior? They wouldn't gain anything at all from it. On the contrary, they might lose potential buyers.
We know that the PS3 is capable of mindblowing graphics. All of those games are made by first party developers, who get lots of technical support from Sony. Maybe if they gave some of that support to third party devs you wouldn't have to suffer the consequences.
Maybe, just maybe, Sony wants you to pick the games that they themselves publish instead of buying from third party publishers.
Well, could you explain then to me why the PS 3 version is not the best one of the console versions?
I mean, did those guys of 2K have a look at games over the last few years? DId they notice, there were games like God of War III, Uncharted 2 etc.? You can even go back to launch titles of the PS 3: there is nothing like Motorstorm on any other platform. And those guys try telling us, they've optimized their product for each of the three systems.
This is pathetic!
Unless, perhaps.. these developers are new to the PS3? Maybe? No? Oh.. o.O
How come every time we get the same result and the same excuses from you Ps3 fanboys?
The Ps3 version doesn't look as good, so it "must be lazy development" or "they don't know how to program for the Ps3".
It's okay though, you have the free content to make you feel better about having the inferior version.
How the hell does 2kgames make a Piss Poor pathetic version for PS3..
I'm going to cancel this game right now.. this is just ridiculous, I'm sick and tried of these developers making a watered down version for PS3 and then charging the same price of a Quality game....
This guy went on and on about how in Mafia 1 the console version was trash, and that this time around they fixed that and made a real amazing console experience to match the PC version..
-and now this sh*t, they couldn't even get the dam grass to look right, you gotta be kidding me.. (PS3-Users DO NOT BUY THIS GAME) -rent it if you have to, or get it used... these guys do not deserve you money..
If you want to water it down charge the water down price of $49.99 like Hawx 2, and if you don't want to charge that low for brand new, then make a dam Quality game...
2K games I was your biggest fan, and loved Mafia 1 but now I'm disgusted with you, and I will now go on a full all out onslaught of telling everyone I know and see not to buy this game... you idiots FAIL

made on the GTA engine? Rage i think its called. Damn fucking engine, shit sucks for PS3.
over graphics (exclusive DLC)
That's a joke, right?
Do you believe somebody actually thinks like that?
LOL. I like your humor.
lol.. well you did get a lot of agrees...
even though it seems like something little, come on this just make it feels like the devs aren't trying to fix wat seems to be a simple fix
And so do the other 90 percent of Sony fans that troll this site that constantly bring up but but but Uncharted 2 and and and FF 13 in every 360 exclusive article. Just go look at any article on Reach to prove my point.
It is what is it .... and ALL Sony fans should be used to it by now. Multi-plat games 99 percent of the time are superior on the 360.
PS3rd - IT ONLY DOES EVERYTHING ... but grass
Flower does grass better than any other game.
etownone OWNED!
But grass is pretty much all it does. There are no character models, and environment geometry for the most part is pretty simple. Don't get me wrong, Flower is a damn impressive game, but you'll never see a real game on the PS3 rendering grass on that level, because it takes too much away from everything else.
it was a joke man. dont take it so seriously. :)
And so do the other 90 percent of Sony fans that troll this site that constantly...
So x360 fanboys don't troll here.
http://www.youtube.com/watc...
So can you make a whole lot of noise about that, on the 2k forums?
What the hell is wrong with your xbox?!
Don't have one? Ahh.. that explains it.
Does the PC build support controllers, unlike Bio 2?
@kartik21
Geez no need to cry about it.
damn them ps3 fanboys, u must be so happy right now, wanna guess the sales of mafia 2?
if Sucker Punch's word are to be believed, then we should just wait for inFAMOUS2 to do just THAT!
edit: lol badz149 got to it first
"It's not inferior... it just has no grass, less blood, inferior cloth movement... and it wasn't ported, but it's not inferior!!!!11"
fixed
this happens oh well. It was ported by a small canadian team
Fixed.
They just lost a sale.
why shouldn't it matter we pay money for this stuff you know.I'm not forking over my money for a game that wasn't properly ported,yes grass,animations & game play matters to me i haven't bought bayonetta,the orange box ect for the same reason i would rather have them hold back the ps3 release date to fix it up.I'm not going to support bad work.i was looking forward to this game i am really disappointed with the quality for the ps3 version.why should they get a free pass ?
It's just one of those series that needs to be experienced on PC, no doubt.
Edit
not everyone is ok with paying full price for half the quality...
I'll be canceling that and putting that money towards R.U.S.E with Move support :)
PreOrder canceled for PS3...
i will play this on my 360
"hey, look, Mafia 2 is a piece of graphic crap in your console... take this "for FREE".. only cost you, a crappy port!"
This game was cranked out by a PC developer with little to zero console experience so of course it's going to look better on the 360 than the PS3.
I'll just buy this on the PC then, no biggie. It's nice to have options.
I remember wanting this game when the first trailer showed up online. The graphics looked so good and the story showed promise but its amazing how things changed. 2K really needs to get thier act together. This "PS3 is hard to develop for/" excuse became invalid 2 years ago.
That pic prove her wrong:

That pics from an early ps3 build which ran at like 5fps. So they removed grass, blood etc and got the fps up around the 30 mark.
Not everything has to be multi-player or deathmatch approved.
This time? Oh wait.
Every time, as usual.
its such a shame too i was thinking of picking it up i love mafia kind of games! such a shame! ;/ games are expensive,I'm not going to buy a crappy quality game didn't really care for the demo, its worth a rent at least.
Why would she say that, this will make em loose a % on ps3 now
thanks to some woman on 2k forum,Sack her
Example: Gears of War 2
