Holy Screen Tearing, do I need to even say which one??

LostDjinn4674d ago (Edited 4674d ago )

I'm going to have to go with the PS3 having more tear and the 360 having the better version. Otherwise LOT would have left it at a screenshot comparison.

Edit: Damn plurals!

TheMasterShake4674d ago

i really hope that next gen sony has the good enough tech that way we don't have to deal with this shitty port bullcrap. same thing for every other console too.

jukins4674d ago

it wasnt so much the bad tech as it is the software support sony is giving third parties. its clear that the ps3 is capable of more than the 360 by looking at ps3 exclusives.

Take for example uncharted. like transformers, a 3rd person shooter. Uncharted looks amazing, is a technical masterpiece on and offline.

i think sony just needs to have better dev support tools next gen and this disparity with 3rd party games could be a thing of the past.

izumo_lee4674d ago

Ken Kutaragi being the guy he is really made the PS3 way to complicated to program for with its 'new' tech. Sony's first party has the resources to work around the tech but i guess 3rd party studios are still trying to grasp what the system can & can not do.

Being it lazy or cost of development the XB360's almost PC style architecture is easier to handle & make things work. That is one thing Sony needs to improve with their next system & that is 'user' friendly hardware.

hennessey864674d ago

they no what it can do, its weather they can be bothered to utilise the ps3 strengths

testerg354674d ago

I might as well get it out of the way.

- my copy doesn't look like that
- LOT didn't turn on RGB or full white thingy
- LOT is biased against PS3

I think those are the 3 things that will be mentioned.

jukins4674d ago

i usually am suspect with these comparisons but its clear that transformers, in particular, is a mess on ps3. good game but i couldnt take the bad textures, lag, screen tearing, and horrible framerate had to sell it.

NastyLeftHook04674d ago

i agree, i cannot believe people actually believe these comparisons. its sad really.

yippiechicken4674d ago

As a multi console owner, why would I not want to take these comparisons in to consideration before buying a game? I don't have any of this weird crazy allegience to a particular console so why wouldn't I want to get the best performing/looking version for my money?

d3nworth14674d ago

I find it funny how dev are starting to complain about this gen consoles being at their limit but yet we still see alot of crappy ports. I dont expect both version to be completely identical but close enough that the differences would be neglect able.

Activision's Transformers Games Have Been Relisted On Xbox And Steam Stores

Activision's Transformers games have been relisted on the Xbox and Steam stores, suggesting they could be available in the future.

Inverno348d ago

Aw snap, i pirated the first game since I couldn't get it on steam but couldn't get it to work. Guess i don't gotta go out of my way now. Now if only SONY worked with em to port over Edge of Time or remastered Shattered and Edge.

Redgrave347d ago

The bots have returned!

*slow dramatic falling to the floor*

Inverno347d ago

"please add .com" what a well mannered bot.

CobraKai347d ago (Edited 347d ago )

WTF? I’ve been wanting to replay Fall/War games. So bummed they didn’t make em backwards compatible. I think imma have to dig out my 360 out of storage

P_Bomb347d ago

Really wish they’d finish off the Fall/War run as a trilogy. The IP’s being wasted on mediocre games.

CobraKai347d ago

Yeah. Didn’t they try and merge the movie game and the Cybertron game for Dark of the Moon or something?

P_Bomb347d ago

I think they tried, but that’s one game I never played. Which is funny cuz I have the other movie games. Last TF game I bought was Devastation.

FinalFantasyFanatic347d ago

I really loved those games, I have them on my Steam account, but I wish they made more games like that.

ActualWhiteMan347d ago

Definitely don’t see them on steam…

so about that digital """future" ""...

skycaptin52722d ago (Edited 2722d ago )

It's a real shame, Fall and War were truly remarkable games.

Cobra9512721d ago

You can always redownload titles you already bought, even delisted ones. And while the digital future may bring downsides like this one, it is inevitable nevertheless.

Krysis2721d ago

I grew with you but you will never convince idiots they are wrong, that's what makes them idiots.

ChrisW2721d ago

Exactly, they can always be redownloaded!!!

I just downloaded Transformers: Devastation and War for Cybertron to check.

The article said it's because of Activision's license expiring. Unless there's a huge nasty internal disagreement about that sort of stuff, this delisting will hopefully not be permanent.

firelogic2721d ago

If you bought it, you can still redownload it as many times as you want. They're just not selling it anymore. We'd be in the same situation if physical copies ended their print run.

And yes, we are moving to an all digital future. All doesn't mean "all or nothing." You can still buy LPs in 2018. That doesn't mean the majority of the population hasn't moved onto MP3s and streaming music.

BluRay/DVDs are still sold but have been steadily decreasing year after year as people have moved onto streaming and digital downloads.

Physical books are still printed but are in decline because of e-readers/tablets/cell phones.

PC gaming has been basically 100% digital for some time now and you don't see them proclaiming that the sky is falling. It's just console gamers that are reluctant to accept the inevitable. I don't understand why.

spektical2721d ago (Edited 2721d ago )

"It's just console gamers that are reluctant to accept the inevitable. I don't understand why."

You arent a true gamer then. True money value for a game is in the physical copy. Digital is much more anti-consumer at this place in time. You cannot lend games to friends, and sure there needs to be a middleground. At this point I can go to my friends houses and trade switch/ps4 games like mario/zelda/horizon/gta5, which i cant do with digital. The needle is too far on the anti-consumer side. Steam tried it with family sharing, but its bs i have to sign in to a friends pc for "family share", why can't I decide which 5 friends can view my library from the my home?

Skuletor2721d ago

Same situation if physical copies of a game ended their production run? Don't think you can buy many preowned digital games, especially when they've been delisted.

darthv722721d ago

@spektical: Digital is not anti-consumer. if anything it is pro consumer as digital is much easier to obtain. And really a true gamer is someone who plays games no matter where or in what format.

Sounds to me you are more of a shelf collector than a gamer if you are worried about physical vs digital.

Sunny_D2721d ago

Physical copies that end their run still have the benefit of atleast having a used copy you can find for said game. There’s no such thing as a used digital game.

rainslacker2721d ago (Edited 2721d ago )

Pretty sure u can still easily obtain almost every game ever made physically. It's not like it's terribly hard to find people selling stuff. It's rare that I have to wait it out on something. Just last week I brought over 40 snes games all new, and their print run ended well over 20 years ago.

Otoh, my digital copy of r-typres which I actually paid for back at the start of last gen I'd no longer available for sale, nor is it available to download.

Digital has it's advantages sure, but this is one place where physical trumps digital, and the 2nd biggest reason why I prefer physical. The first is I actually like havi my something of value, which digital games don't beyond my own account

narsaku2721d ago

Yea yea, 1 or 2 games get de-listed and can still be downloaded by people who purchased and nobody really cares about them anyway and the retards come out laughing at the future of gaming, all the while they can't find 3/4 of their games they bought in the last 10 years, half of them probably don't work without skips/glitches, several, "disk 2's", are gone, several of the cases you opened, led to cracked games cus mum dropped your old collection while playing etc etc etc etc etc etc etc.

I swear console gamers here are 200 years old.

Professor_K2721d ago (Edited 2721d ago )

No ty, Downloading 40g games on a 445kb banwidth is MADNESS😆😭

This game is still in my backlog :(

gangsta_red2721d ago

Same, got it from PS+ and I was determined to finish it because I am a huge G1 fan...sadly I never did.

LucasRuinedChildhood2721d ago

You can still download and play it.

ZwVw2721d ago

Legend of Korra has been delisted from all marketplace stores as well. The rights expired with Activision.

These games as very close to me actually liking them...

darthv722722d ago

Both 'War for' and 'Fall of' are really well made games. Much better than any of the movie licensed ones.

BlackTar1872722d ago

i just wish the MP in #2 was better and more inline with #1.

I put like 200hrs into MP on #1 and was one of the hidden gems of last gen. Whatever they did to MP in #2 was awful IMO of course

2722d ago
Knightofelemia2722d ago

I love these games way better then the movie crap that was put out. Too bad the third game Rise of the Dark Spark sucked they had a great franchise going on with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron.

jukins2722d ago

1st one was amazing. Second was so sloppy technically was near unplayable
