Eurogamer Face Off - Round 20

Yes, the Ghostbusters one.

"Eurogamer is happy to reveal that its coverage has evolved once more. Our comparison features have traditionally been rich with video and screenshot-based assets that are the best they can be possibly be, but with the arrival of this landmark, the brand new Eurogamer HD video player comes into play, giving you the choice of watching either the cropped 1:1 pixel-mapped embedded video streams, or else a higher-quality 720p presentation"

These guys are the only ones I trust when it comes to comparisons.

Looks like earlier reports of Ghostbusters inconsistencies were pretty spot on. Personally, I found the Prototype comparison more interesting as I've no chance of seeing a 360 version of Ghostbusters unless I import.

Damn you sony for making me wait 6 months for the PAL 360 version. Don't get me wrong, I've got a PAL PS3 too but I'm sticking to the principle of the whole thing.

I'll wait.

The Master Chief5437d ago

Eurogamer says Prototype runs better on Xbox 360. Oh knoes.

Bleem3605437d ago (Edited 5437d ago )

Yeah, but in defence of the PS3 - they did say it was only marginally better on 360 and that the developers had taken time to tweak the engine for each console.

Bionic Commando wins for PS3 - I'm sure I read somewhere it had only sold 10,000 copies in the US though.

xabmol5437d ago

Lazy devs don't get my money. PS3 has proven time and again that it is a graphics powerhouse and any dev worth their salt can make multi's run 90-95% equal, but this 75% crap just doesn't cut it. Still gonna play it though.

Blockbuster here I come!

edhe5437d ago

Sony was the lazy party when not provide game company-friendly hardware or tools.

Everyone else has 'em.

AKNAA5437d ago

My gawd, this comparison is so embarrassing as a ps3 owner. Just look at it! the ps3 version looks like sh1t compared to 360! all blurry looking and everything, WTF?!
I hope nobody buys this crap( especially ps3 owners) so the developers can get financially f$#@Ked like those guys who made haze!
The PS3 is capable of doing waaaay better than this! 360 owners also know it and yet the fanboys are talking sh1t like its 2007 again?!
give it a rest, don't blame the hardware, blame the incompetent developers.

LightofDarkness5437d ago

Geez, usually the differences are minute at best, but this one's a deal breaker. They really dropped the ball on this one. But in fairness, this game was designed in such a way that it takes more advantage of the 360's strengths and not the PS3's. It relies on high resolution textures and normal maps to convey it's details, not pure geometry and shader programs (which the PS3 excels at).

Why dis5437d ago

"Differences are minute at best" Not all devs will hold back the 360 version to match the ps3 version the competition is too great with other devs.

Report suggests the UK is a console nation

Bit-Tech: Perhaps the biggest surprise was that the tide of console gamers is a cultural phenomenon which does not appear to cross every border. According to NPD's research, while the UK has the highest incidence of console usage out of all the markets analysed Germany boasts the biggest number of PC gamers.

France, meanwhile, is clinging on to dedicated hand-held consoles like the Nintendo 3DS and Sony PlayStation Portable at a time when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets.

"when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets."

you mean like japan, europe or the US where the 3ds is breaking records?

People are ditching the 3DS so fast in the US, 3ds sales have doubled over ds first year sales and the year isnt even over.

No source, no truth

who approved this garbage?

Knight_Cid4459d ago

you shouldnt be proud to approve slander

ATi_Elite4458d ago

but 250 million global online PC Gamers say other wise.

Everyone with a Gaming PC can play Wii Games so does that mean the world is a Wii Nation?

I think people just enjoy Games and it really doesn't matter the platform.

Console Nation, PC Universe, iPhone Realm, doesn't matter just enjoy your Games.

StayStatic4459d ago (Edited 4459d ago )

Considering most PC Gamers will own 1 or more consoles , declaring the UK as a "console nation" is complete and utter bollox.

kevnb4459d ago (Edited 4459d ago )

owning a console and playing the occasional game once in a blue moon doesnt make you a console gamer. Just like owning a pc and maybe playing some random flash game doesnt make you a pc gamer. Alot of pc gamers bought ps3s, its a blu-ray player and media hub that plays games.

guitar_nerd_234459d ago

I'm from the UK and game on nearly every platform I can think of.

But yes in general I'm more thumbs than fingers when It comes to my games.

Paul Christoforo to Write a Book Based on the Ocean Marketing Debacle

Remember in December of last year when Paul Christoforo became the pariah of the internet? Ocean Marketing was at the center of a scandal that took the internet by storm after Christoforo exchanged rude, angry emails with a customer of Avenge Controllers, for whom Christoforo was providing customer service. I recently had the chance to speak with Paul about the whole ordeal and what his life has been like since.

That is a very nice looking xbox 360.

gamingdroid4472d ago

That does look sick and the sound is even more awesome. Too bad the darn Xbox 360 is so expensive still.

LX-General-Kaos4472d ago

When the Wii U drops the xbox prices will take a serious nose dive. Hopefully they still have that particular one floating around retail.
