Eurogamer's Xbox 360 vs. PS3 Face-Off: Round Nine

Welcome back to Eurogamer's ongoing critical analysis of the latest in cross-platform game development, as they take a look at another batch of games released on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Recent skirmishes between the rival formats reveal that the Microsoft console still has a significant, quantifiable edge in terms of multi-format gaming quality, but in line with its improving sales figures, PlayStation 3 is gradually closing the gap.

Eurogamer compare the following games:
* Devil May Cry 4
* The Club
* Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
* FIFA Street 3
* Juiced 2
* Turok

[Capt CHAOS]

Aren't we on like round 29 or 30 by now?

[toughNAME]

But remember the Gamepro article? http://n4g.com/News-116505....

I do not like websites doing useless comparisons for hits...but many people in the above article were misinformed. I told them to wait for Eurogamer round 9, and there you have it.

But let's be honest, visuals aren't the only important difference in multiplatform titles...

[green]

oh dear.this is not going to be pretty.

[TruthBTold]

This is not new, just somebody repeating the same things weve seen before. We have really gone dry on interesting stories and news.

[Xbox is the BEST]

Xbox wins again

[QuietStorm]

There is only one true purpose for these comparisons, and it not to see which version is the best. Its to create flame wars and to get digs on your site. And for the most part, gamers only have one console anyway. So buy the freakin game for your respective console. F-ing case close. No winners in this matter.

[jackdoe]

And only one of the games being compared is any good, DMC4. Every other game is pretty mediocre ranging from The Club to Juiced to Turok. Ugh. Weaksauce.

Better on PS3

XBUGS owned

http://www.gamepro.com/micr...

mutiplat games that matter are ALL better ON PS3

[power of Green]

Dam its taking forever I'd would have thought your bubbles would be at 0 by now. lol

This kind of sucks because the devs must be holding back the 360 versions of games to match the PS3 versions.

Just like last generation with PS2 vs Xbox.

Hope devs care enough about their work *not* to use PS3 as lead developing to the PS3's standard then porting to 360 to avoid trouble and earn bragging rights gimping the games to PS3 standards to make it appear that PS3 is closing and or theres no problem.

[I Love Xbox 360]

@ POG

Yeah sure 'cause the devs must be holding back the xbox 360 version not as if its not as powerfull or anything *cough* can't even take a ps2 port *end cough*. Your Precious Xbox 3fixme must be far superior to the PS3 why ? Because You Said So ! Whatever helps you sleep at night m8 ;)

but people don't really care about any of those titles except maybe DMC4... iMad owned again

[tidus007]

Like most multi-console games, any review would inevitably have to come down to which system is better, and for this instance, the PS3 winds up winning out just slightly. It's not in the gameplay department, because DMC4 plays the same regardless of which system that you play on. Nor is it in the visual department, because visual issues are virtually negligible. For example, the 360 has some harder edges to some characters during cutscenes, and a little more screen tearing than the PS3 at times. The PS3 can be a wee bit darker during some scenes, though. Both systems show off a certain amount of render passing that pops into focus on sweeping vista shots, but they occur at the same time on each system and are quickly dismissed. However, observing these differences will only come via frame-by-frame analysis of each game side-by-side. Even then, you're still receiving an incredible visual experience.

http://ps3.ign.com/articles...

GAMEPRO also says the same thing

http://www.gamepro.com/micr...

[power of Green]

IGN has said many things lately that were proven wrong lol.

Ever sence PS3 fanboys tried to destroy IGN they've been afraid to tell it as it is. Believe me I'v been paying attention.

Most sites are sugar coating PS3 opinions so they don't go bankrupt due to angry conspiring PS3 fanboys and their very effective smear campaigns.

[tidus007]

those 3 websites CONFIMRED that DMC4,BURNOUT and COD4 are better on PS3

GAMEZONE also said the same thing

GAMEZONE gave COD4 (ps3) --9.6

GAMEZONE gave COD4 (x360) -- 9.5

http://www.gamezone.com

[u got owned]

^^^^^^ lolol, Funny

You cant be serious, COD4 (PS3) 9.6 (360) 9.5 come on silly rabid going by your logic i guess the almighty Uncharted 88 in metacritics is not better than let say Halo 3 94 metacritics. You trolls are a bunch of hypocrites.

[Salvadore]

The funny thing about most comparison is that people keep arguing about which title look the best, but in the end, they won't be considering purchasing a title superior on that particular platform. I personally want these comparison to come to an end because the games between the 360 and PS3 look identical enough and I don't see why people like nit-picking through contrast differences or texture differences.

[Kleptic]

exactly...not one of these games is an overall must own...DMC4 maybe, if you were a fan of the PS2 games I guess, but as far as current gen games go...even that one is worth missing...

when the comparisons show CoD 4 (the highest rated and selling current gen multiplatform title to date) as being identical...why does it matter?...the only thing these comparisons do is create wars on pointless websites...or give someone owning both consoles an idea of what platform a mediocre title is better on...

seriously...Juiced 2 is being used to justify which platform is overall superior?...what planet is this?

[Dareaver1]

as i stated below, this information has its value with multi-console owners, who don't want to buy both games. If you only own 1 console, why would you even care. If you plan on getting a second console than yeah, i think this information can be useful to you also.

Articles like these are only flamebait to rabid fanboys. If you only have one console, and only plan on owning one console, then articles like these shouldn't even matter to that person. But like i said before, if you own two or more and there is a multi-plat release, then this information can help you decide which console it's best for or that will give you a lil' bit more for your buck.

To say these articles, especially this one which i think Eurogamer does a fantastic job, are useless, is asinine.

[ChrisGTR1]

dissagree with you.. if you have both consoles then obviously your gonna chose 360 version all the time. its practically a fact by now that all ps3 multiplats are always inferrior or equall at most. and thats not even including acheivements / custom soundtracks/ in game guide(xmb) and messanging features the ps3 is currently lacking. so even games like cod4 which are equal... arent really equal in the end.
if you have both consoles than the 360 is the obvious choice, if you have only 1 console than you dont have a choice.
these posts are nothing but flamebait but hey, thats what this site is all about isnt it. just a news website dominated by sony fanboys. sony fanboys lurking at every corner just waiting at every post to hit that little dissagree button.i wonder how many ill get. probably like 10

[kewlkat007]

I have the x360/Ps3 and sometimes it comes down to the controller, on which multi-platform game to get.

For people that do Own both consoles, I guess they can digest these articles a little better. If your not so in love with one console over the other, and have a hard time picking out a multi plat tittle, I'm sure sometimes this info can be of help.

But yeah if you have 1 of each, it's easy to cry foul or go on a rant.

[ChrisGTR1]

@kewlkat007...

you choose it because of the controller? thats odd, i cant stand the ps3 controller. the analog sticks are horribly inaccurate, just one slight movement and it goes all the way to the corners. no precision at all. then the r2 l2 buttons are the worst. pressing those buttons is like doing exercises or something, hard as a rock and really unconformable. i am a long time ps1 and ps2 owner but this controller has just had better days. the only thing i did like is in uncharted how you move it to throw a nade. it makes it feel more realistic. and also when i was playing assasins creed the controller caused a blister on one of my fingers due to those horrible curvs after the r2 l2 buttons. the last time that happend was on the n64 controller from playing goldeneye.

i have both consoles and i know that my 360 is far beter than my ps3, i guess its just me though. i used to play pc games but moved onto consoles because of the better/more social online community. which the 360 shines at. the ps3 however is actually worse than the pc in terms of features. theres no voice chat, no text chat, no messages, no game invites, theres basically nothing going on online. ps3 online reminds me of bots, or playing against bots. nobody says anything ever. i play online to play against other people and for the whole social comunity around the games.. however on ps3 there is no comunity , just a buncha mutes with no mics.

[titntin]

Have to disagree with you!
The difference has to be quiet substansial for me to want the 360 version over the PS3 version. I far prefer the six axis (360 controller gives me hand ache for extended play time)- and I often play late at night when my wife has gone to bed, so the volume has to be down. With the kind of racket the 360 makes, I can barley hear the game, and in this situation the quite whirring of the PS3 is far more palatable!
However, there so many god awful shabby ports, that I still get several of the titles on 360 anyway, despite the noise and my controller preference! But if the differences are very slight, I prefer using the Ps3 .. :)

[Dareaver1]

I currently own a 360; and because i pay for live, have noticed myself that multi-plat titles perform better, and am in love with the controller (because after Dreamcast i never went back to the PS controller, and 360's is just a spinoff/improvement over DC's controller), when i get my ps3 i will still buy multi-plat titles for 360. But the PS3 exclusives is what i'm after, and can only be played on PS3. I already enjoy 360 exclusives.

I was just trying to show that there is a need for these comparisons. And to the fact that they do help some gamers. And, also, in my opinion Eurogamer does them the best. They even turn on the RBG to full that the PS3 owners were complaining about. They are trying to be as fair as possible. And they are helping to inform multi-console owners...

[ChrisGTR1]

i actually want to sell my ps3.. im sorry but ive been utterly deceived since ive boughten it. i shouldnt of boughten it from the start, none of the exclusive even intrest me at all, and the ones that do get pushed back to late 08 or 09. KZ2 was a game i reallywanted but its still a year away. mgs4 is 4 months away. who the hell knows when home is finaly gonna come out im betting on november 08. same for lbp. ff13 is coming out 09. theres just too much waiting involved with the ps3. i honestly havent turned it on to play games since november when i rented UT3 however my 360 i use it everyday to play halo 3 lost odyssey and mass effect which im trieng to complete before gta4 comes out which is a must have for 360 cause of the expansion packs.
Dareaver1 i really advise you to really , really think about not getting a ps3 because in the end you dont even need one once you already have a 360,i learned this the hard way and am now trieng to sell it. the ps3 is just there in my room collecting dust. theres still no good games on it and there wont be till mgs4 is out. which i really wana play but just 1 game is not worth buying a 500$ console. im gonna sell this and just keep my 360 till the ps3 slim comes out, perhaps then the ps3 will have some decent games on it.

[kewlkat007]

Example fighting games, I cannot stand the 360 D-Pad so they will go to my PS3. read my profile..

So some multi games, well for me it's about the controller.

[Dareaver1]

for me the PS3 exclusives i want to play are Uncharted mostly, I heard that Resistance was pretty good and 2 is shaping up to supersede it. I'm not into GT Pro, and if GT5 does not show enough improvement than i won't get that either. Forza 2 is just leaps and bounds better (except for graphics, but the GT series has always been known for that, i'm more interested in gameplay and realism and Forza has all simulators beat there for now [in my opinion]). LBP looks awesome and that's what i like a more community feel (that's why i enjoy Live so much), White Knight looks promising.

Unfortunately i'm going to wait for the DualShock 3 controller to be bundled in, but it's just hit me that the Best PS3 to get is the 60gig model, it encompass all Sony initially set out to do. I might try to find one of those and sell the controller and get two DualShock 3's. I might have to resort to that, because BC is essential to me.

[green]

keep your PS3 dont sell it.I own a 360 and have always wanted a PS3 for GT5,but so far that might not get to europe till 09,same as FF13 and maybe KillZONE 2(which dose not interest me).And if Forza 3 is announced for 09 then i wont get GT5,and will get whatever good exclusive that they have at that point.These games will come out sooner or later and when they are released i am sure they will be good.

Mean while enjoy the confirmed 360 titles of 08 because its going to be another 07 in terms of software all over again.

[Chris_GTR1]

well if u are eventually going to get a ps3 than just wait for some decent games. unccharted and resistance are nowhere near the list of must have games. you need to wait for some good games.. im telling you, i did the same exact mistake your gonna make.lol. i bought the ps3 only because i found that 20% off coupon from kmart. for i got my 80 gigger for 400$. even at 400$ i still feel ripped off. i currently have no games for it. i was gonna buy uncharted but the 8 hour / no multiplayer thing made me not get it afterall. this game woulda been so damn cool if it had multiplayer. if your gonna get a ps3 wait at leased until november. until sony has all thier sht together with the in game xmb/home and seing if the aaa exclusives there promising are actually true

@green well i think forza is a far , far better racing game than GT. it has soo many modes and features it makes GT look like a ps1 game. GT guys are concentrated way too much on making it look pretty and not enough on making it a fun game to play. forza 2 was soo damn awesome i would customize my cars to make them replicas from fast n furious cars and sell them on the auction. i bought some car with a naked girl on it lol. the car was unlocked to im able to put that onto all my other cars lol.

@ below
STFU, do u know much bubbles get taken away just from me saying that i prefer the 360 to ps3? this site is overflowing with ps3 fanboys. and unfortunately for me in on the wrong side of the fence here. its like the movie 300 where 360 users are spartans and ps3 users are the other people.lol lame analogy but w.e its still true.

@Chris_GTR1 & ChrisGTR1
Get your multiple accounts off here you troll!!!

The system is put in place to keep you muppets from completely hijacking a thread with your nonsence, and I can see from your accounts and the number of bubbles that you habitually make troll posts..

Hopefully a mod will see your account abuse and do something for a change...

[The Wood]

wow. bluray alone justifies your purchase unless your sticking with sd dvd with your plasma/lcd Dareaver1. Plus you wont have to pay for any extras IF you get the ps3 bundled with the ds3. No hidden extras, no hardware issues. There are enough great games to keep you going especially if you have a job/family/social life. You shouldnt be disappointed unless your really hard to please or have an agenda like mr chrisGT

[green]

most people are gamers not videophiles, so stating that PS3 is worth the purchase due to Blueray is not a valid point for most gamers.

E3 event in 05 when the PS3 was unveiled,Sony blew the microsoft into the water with tech sheets for the PS3 and all those Motorstorm,Killzone 2 etc videos.What did microsoft show "DOA4,PGR3 and someother prealpha build games running on Apple G5's".At that point i said there was no way i was getting the 360 but will get the PS3.The only reason i changed my mind was beacause i could not wait for the extra year for the PS3 to be released.

The PS3 is yet to deliver on those gorgeous pre rendered videos that they showed at E3.The same happened when the PS2 was unveiled and they said that out of the gate it will have Toy Story beaten visuals.We all laughed at their claims but could care less because their competitors where all week.

Now come 08 and the Microsoftand Nintendo are very strong.The 360 has exceeded everyones expectations graphically and software wise.When GOW lunched people felt the 360 was maxed out until epic said they only used 1 of the 3 cores and didnt fully utilize the unified shader architecture of the 360.

If Sony had not overhyped the PS3 then it would not be a problem,but i wont start playing beyond until those Sony promises for once are fulfilled.And to me that looks like christmas this year

I could go on but I don't like lists

[Dareaver1]

I was always assuming that i'll buy a PS3 come this upcoming November, i figured by then it'll have the DualShock 3's bundled in and maybe, just maybe wireless headsets, who knows. But I might have to find a 60gig, since i know that it is the best model. and the fact that i could always upgrade the hdd, makes the 80gig model pointless when compared to the 60gig.

But for now I'm very Happy with my 360, only 3 flashing lights once, and i'm behind in beating my games, you can check out my gamercard. I still have Orange Box, Bioshock, DMC4, and Naruto (i think it's an awesome game, the best anime based game to date, and any true Naruto fan would love it), to beat. I did beat Mass Effect, which was awesome, and Halo 3 is just a joy to play. I still have to get CoD4 though, but i might not since 5 is gonna come out this year and i'm not really missing anything, because i kind of prefer the Sci-fi universe over reality (just my personal preference).

Did you here, Halo 3 won best "real time visuals", many don't think it deserves it, but i do. It had awesome visuals, especially they lighting, and the FMV sequences were breathtaking. My favorite scene was when you found Cortana and she was laying on the Holo projector. That was so vivid and realistic that you could mistaken it for CG. Sorry to get off topic, but i'm one of the many that loves Halo 3 and can appreciate CoD4 for what it has accomplished all at the same time.

@ The Wood....
The 360 is also a great system, and there is no hidden fees, everything is up front and is to your option, what you want. 360 is at it's core and game console first, mutli-media device after. Don't get me wrong the PS3 is a great machine, but you don't need everything that comes with it. With the 360 i have the option of Wi-Fi (some people don't like it, others do, Optional), HD movie playback is available through Xbox Live, so there is no need to purchase any hardware unless you want to purchase the Physical media (which i don't care for, it's all clutter to me and i mostly rent everything from blockbuster in the first place, and on Live it's cheaper than Blockbuster), it has most of the same media capabilities as the PS3 sans The web browser and Linux capability, it has great 3rd party support, currently more diversity with game genres (attributed to it's earlier release, but only slightly), and etc.

Just like you i hate lists, but at the same time i'm not going to spin things in favor to make the other look less appealing.

The 360 is more optional than the PS3. In essence you can tailor the 360 more specific for your needs. And that can make it potentially cheaper, and you can also tailor it to make it more expensive than the PS3. See what i'm saying...?

[Xbox is the BEST]

put. Bubbles for you

[green]

if i missed your point then what have you done regarding my own comment with your list.

I never said the PS3 aint got games,all i said is that they are yet to deliver on the visual promises they made.Remember they said the PS3 will make the 360 look like XBOX 1.5.A year and a half after it is released we are seeing multi-plat games still looking better on the XBOX1.5 than on the PS3.When Xbox was released it immediately showed its superiority to the PS2 so why isn't the PS3 doing the same.And don't say uncharted, i have seen the game and i agree its stunning but the 360 can run that game easily.

PS3 will shine much brighter with its upcoming titles,but all i am saying is that SOny said,showed things and made promises they should not have made in the 1st place.

Take it as you wish but that is the truth and this time around they most deliver b4 i will play beyond.

n/b:Software wise lets not even go there.I just got Assassins creed on monday.why because i am still buying games from 07(to many to own) and still haven't gotten COD4, and already Lost Odyssey and FLFOW are already out.ALone in the Dark 4 a game i have been waiting for ages for(delayed on PS3),GTA4 to name a few will be out in approximately 2.5 mothes.Thats why i am a gamer i don't see why i should wait.

[The Wood]

who says he didn't like the ps2 because the emotion engine wasnt real or something to that effect. PR and marketing speak is just that. Promises are made by all companies I just choose to distinguish the wheat from the chaff. Ill go by their actions over their speak. I deliberately chose not to downplay the 360 because I think its a great console despite its issue nevertheless I was commenting on why mr d should pick up a ps3 and that he wont be disappointed unless he's hard to please etc. No additional cost is important to me. Charger pack for pads, wireless xbl are extra/additional cost in my eyes and i was making the point that he would not need to purchase any of these things ( I missed hdmi lead for the ps3 so forgive me)

Some promises are just targets and hopes. I wouldn't not buy a great console because of pr speak (which ms is equally guilty of) that hadn't been fulfilled or I would of never of ever purchased any launch console. My list were of games that have in some way shape or form has impressed me or fulfilled some of sony's pr speak. Sony has indeed kept some of its promises and to me they outweigh the misplaced promises. Did uncharted or heavenly sword not impress you one bit? I mention them because they were year 1 titles.

[The Wood]

are never gunna be allowed to outshine its counterpart so thats a moot point. The exclusives are going to be the difference and im not even going to bring dvd9 into this even though its a valid point on limitations. You say the 360 can run it but running it is one thing, converting that into a game is a different kettle of fish

[green]

on that note.we can agree.

good discussion anyway.bubbles for you

[The Wood]

bubbles back at ya

[moses]

Only noticeable differences are in a few of the PS3 screenshots the AA is a bit...nonexistent. Which really isn't a big deal, it's one of those minor things that doesn't matter what so ever.

Edit: Why am I getting disagrees for stating the truth?... Look at the FIFA-1080P screenshot, it's pretty blatant.

[Dareaver1]

but this information is valuable to multi-console owners. So i see the importance of these comparisons. The single console owners are the ones that come on here flaming, but all in all, this information has its value.

[DiabloRising]

I'll disagree. I'll say the value is rather... weak at best. Why? Because most people have made up their minds already on which console they prefer, which version they will purchase, and it can be for a number of reasons. Achievements, friends to play online with, controller preferences, etc. If someone is going to choose one version over another simply for one slight texture difference, or SLIGHT AA differences, then I have to say its all in the fanboy bragging rights and has nothing to do with actual preference.

There articles are flamebait through and through in my opinion. You can almost feel him trying to find reasons to make the 360 version of DMC4 superior, despite no screen tearing on the PS3 edition. It's a pity that more people are concerned with justifying their purchase than just playing the goddamn games any more.

I expect this to reach a head when GTAIV hits, with people picking out the most miniscule of differences and then using them to justify/argue which version is superior. So lame. Still, the very concept that the PS3 cannot have a superior port needs to be done away with ASAP, and fanboys need to accept that already.

[Dareaver1]

but there are gamers out there that don't care for achievements, but let's say that the 360 version didn't suffer from framerate problems, or that the PS3 version ran better online. Those can be important enough to warrant a change with which system to get it for.

It still has some value. It's just that fanboys are too loud, and too ignorant to realize that they are ruining some aspects of gaming.

If you only like one system, then why would you care about multi-plat performance. That's retarded. That fanboy is only going to buy the game for that system, especially if said fanboy does not plan on buying the other system in the comparison. Then they are just stupid for complaining.

Fanboys don't need to comment in these posts, they just can't resist coming in and having their pissing contest substantiated. They are an annoyance and sometimes a necessary evil, because like you said, this site probably wouldn't do well without them.

[DiabloRising]

I agree with you there. I don't remember things being so bad in past generations. It's become such a pissing match. Bleh.

[Xeikon]

Xbox 360 = 9
Sony PS3 = 0

The 360 continues to dominate all multiplatform releases.

Turok on the PS3 looks more like a PS2 game.

[ChrisGTR1]

its the architecture of the ps3 that is causing the crappy ports, it is an unchangable fact and will persist till the next gen.

[pwnsause]

its the devs that dont realize that they should build on PS3 architecture first. Go to Critireon. they know that building a game on a superior system means an equal game for all consoles.

[popup]

"The 360 continues to dominate all multiplatform releases"

... and each individual console continues to dominate every exclusive release.

I see a game I want and get the hardware to play it. It has led me to purchase all three from this generation and has led to more purchases on each platform too. So far, I have no multi-platform titles on any of them. If one such title was to appeal to me, then it would be the superior, lead version that I would purchase.

[Animal Mutha 76]

Personally I like these comparisons as I sometimes have to choose which platform to buy on. I like my achievements and hardware scaler on 360 but If the game is better on PS3 then I will go with that. I want the best for my money seeing as I have invested a lot in hardware.

Whilst these games might not be the best choices it is a matter of taste at the end of the day. I think the Club is quite good.

These only become flamebait from the fanboys as they have had to be pikey and only get one machine and therefore don't like it if the version for their format is pants.

I do wonder If the PS3 owned these comparisons every time would we really hear so much noise??? I'm not so sure we would as all xbox owners already know that the machine is a 3D graphics beast and can hold its own against anything and are therefore not insecure. The games, sales and attach rate do not lie and in time the PS3 will no doubt enjoy the same success once the millions of PS2 owners decide to upgrade and SCE release more and more optimized games for the Cell/RSX hardware.

Its a great time to be a gamer folks, whatever machine you buy.

[DiabloRising]

Even when the PS3 fairs equally, you still have people looking for excuses to put it down. So yes, you would hear noise, just from the other side. And the PS3 is a graphics beast as well. Ratchet = gorgeous. I agree though, its a great time to be a gamer.

[ToastyMcNibbles]

alright 360 fans...you go and enjoy your "slightly better look multiplatform title which i can play on my system as well" and i'll enjoy the most...electrifying exclusive line up of alllll time! if you smell what the toastman is cookin

[u got owned]

PROMISES thats all you have. That line up promise to be a great line up. But we have to wait (as always) to see if they deliver.

[Vip3r]

I honestly see no different in terms of quality except from the 360 version being slightly darker in contrast.

COD4 better on PS3 (dailygame)

http://www.highdefforum.com...

DMC4 and BURNOUT better on PS3---IGN (2x framerate, better graphics)

"Like most multi-console games, any review would inevitably have to come down to which system is better, and for this instance, the PS3 winds up winning out just slightly. It's not in the gameplay department, because DMC4 plays the same regardless of which system that you play on. Nor is it in the visual department, because visual issues are virtually negligible. For example, the 360 has some harder edges to some characters during cutscenes, and a little more screen tearing than the PS3 at times. The PS3 can be a wee bit darker during some scenes, though. Both systems show off a certain amount of render passing that pops into focus on sweeping vista shots, but they occur at the same time on each system and are quickly dismissed. However, observing these differences will only come via frame-by-frame analysis of each game side-by-side. Even then, you're still receiving an incredible visual experience. "

CHECK IGN's insider VIDEO of BURNOUT HEAD TO HEAD

Burnout runs at 2x the SPEED on PS3 and HAS much better graphics too

GAMEPRO says the same thing too

XBOTS ----ranting or MONEYHATTING EUROGAMER wont change the FACT that X360 is an inferior console and all the good multiplat games look and play better on PS3

Some sites just love to incite the flame wars.

Talk about fanboy site too.

i will not comment about slight differences in textures or colors on multi-platform games. If you own both systems you will go with what ever system you want to use the game on.

If you like your gamerscore and you find pride in getting all the extra MS points then go for it. If you have real life friends that only own one system and you want to play with them online then go for it. If you like the controler more for one system then go for it.

The only ppl that make a big deal from these comparasions are the ones that are not real happy with the ONE system they have. They might say things like "Playstation rules" or "XBL is history making" but all they are doing is tring to convince other ppl why they made the right choice.

Could ppl see Halo3 ran at 600p with there blind eye or did they just go ahead and not care because it was a great game! We know ppl cared on this site

REAL PPL DONT CARE ABOUT SUCH THINGS AS THIS and only the most anal of ppl try to make a case about there system with such talking points

Call of Duty 4, looks just slight better on the PS3 in my opinon. I saw the the Xbox 360 version, COD4 looks just a tad more realistic on the PS3 with slight better textures.

Look all i gotta say is that I'm yet to see a game on the 360 that matches Unchartered - I'm no fanboy, but thats currently the BEST LOOKING game on a next gen console right now!

its an old trick that wont work on fans or fanboys anymore!!
we saw the big difference in the settings of ps3 with they added to full video component or wat ever that is in assassin's creed !!

[Meus Renaissance]

I dont think anyone even looks at these articles anymore.

[BUKKAKALYPSE]

Because its a known FACT that the 360 versions are always better

[Official General]

Assassin's Creed looks good on the PS3 I dont know what them a**holes are talking about

Come on man, stop fooling yourself. The PS3 is simply a powerhouse of a machine. Have you played or even seen Unchartered on a HD screen? I gather you havent because you wont talking about the PS3 like that. Unchartered has clearly set the standard of what a next-gen game should be - when I played that game I really felt I was playing on a next gen console, thats the truth. As for your crappy ports comment thats silly, because many recent games have the PS3 as the lead or joint platform not ported. COD4, Burnout Paradise and DMC4 are either equal or look better on the PS3 in comparison to the Xbox 360. I'm not making this up because I've checked these reviews and seen thats the case for these games.

I heard COD and Oblivan both look better on a PS3. Its a known fact that the human eye cant see the difference in 30FPS and 60FPS. The only game that i played on both systems that i thought was inferior in terms of look on a PS3 was Splinter Cell. Other then that game there are very few games, you can cant them on one hand, that have shown a lack of polish.

I guess i will add the Orange Box to that handfull but i bought the game for my PS3 and its still enjoyable. I also understand any game that was a port from a 360 to the PS3 and is devolped for PC will show signs of lack of time spent with the Sony hardware. Maybe thats why you cant find Uncharted or RFOM on a PC.
