Batman: Arkham Asylum - PS3 Vs 360 screenshots

Eurogamer Portugal published some exclusive screenshots comparing the two versions. Check them out.

[N4PS3G]

umm ...they actually look the same

[Blaze929]

good job to Edios, they actually know what they are doing.

[JsonHenry]

Wow. They actually look damn near identical.

[Pistolero]

The PS3 version just looks a little blurrier to me...but other than that they look pretty close. A really nice looking game btw.

[OmarJA]

Looks the same but with the exclusive content on the PS3 version it makes it the better & must get version.

[C_SoL]

Same

[Pistolero]

Everybody should keep in mind that you can't tell everything from screenshots...there is still the all important performance criteria to be considered...and you can't tell that from screenshots. Does one tear more than the other one?...does one have slower frame rate than the other?...you know, stuff like that.

[Raf1k1]

You're right. There is a slight blurr to the PS3 one and makes it look a tad darker other than that they're identical.

[Traveler]

Based on the screenshots they look nearly identical. I do see what you guys are saying about the PS3 version looking a little softer, but I don't mind that. I am just happy that the developer was able to do such a good job making them as close as possible.

[socomnick]

That blurryness on the ps3 is quincux, its how the ps3 handles jaggies.

360 uses AA for jaggies since the video card has eram it can provide 4x aa with no cost to frame rate.

[Myth]

I heard that it might use it when throwing the batrang. Anyone know?

[Kleptic]

^^did you read the article earlier today on that?...both the 360 and PS3 gpu are capable of 4x msaa, but the overhead on either system is far too high...

most 360 games use 2x msaa because of that EDRAM...and the PS3 uses quincux, a cpu based AA procedure...for similar results...but the two do produce a very different 'feel' to screen shots...

in motion though its hard to tell either apart...if you would watch videos of the two games in motion...you probably couldn't tell which was which without a description...

either way though...the UE3'ness of the game is kind of bothering me...the lighting is so off at times it drives me nuts...at the start of the demo, kill all the bad dudes...then go stand in the cells with the bright flood light shining in...and watch how it has zero effect on the character model, and that the shadowing is blatantly wrong...the shadow actually points towards the light...I understand this is simply a quibble...not every game can be killzone 2 and have absolutely perfect and accurate lighting across the board...but after you notice the tech in some games, it makes it hard to 'go back' thats all...

light sourcing has always been UE3's biggest weakness...as it hides its lack of a true dynamic light system with overly amped bloom and more recently, occlusion...if you compare its lighting to something like crysis or killzone 2...its blatantly obvious...but otherwise, some of the details go unnoticed...

it drove me nuts in bioshock, Gears 1 and 2, and UT3...it has good shadowing and lighting 'effects' at times...but they are completely inaccurate, and have absolute no ground in the 'lights' you see in the environment...stand in front a flood light and killzone 2, and the shadow, effects on your gun, etc. are all based on that light being a 'real' light...you can even put your back to the light and see your own shadow cast realistically over the weapon on screen...and on the ground in front of you...UE3 simply can't do that, and never will...hopefully UE4 gets it right, as to anyone that likes the tech involved with newer video games, its pretty obvious...

[phosphor112]

Not only do I usually HATE UE3, these graphics (or atleast the character models) outdo the detail that was put on Gears of War. It's amazing. How do these guys pull off a better looking outcome than Epic themselves?

The only difference between each picture is contrast/brightness. Also, Eurogamer needs to stop using semi low quality scresnhots. I can't stand the jpeg artifacting while trying to compare.

[gaffyh]

Honestly in these pictures the 360 version looks slightly better, lighting and colour is just that much sharper. However when I play the game on my PS3, it definitely looks A LOT better than the pictures they are showing. In fact it looks on par with the 360 shots in this comparison, because when I played through the demo I saw NO blurring issues and NO jaggies.

I dunno whether these guys are using the right settings, but HDMI with Full RGB and Super White is always the way to go with PS3, really makes a huge difference to the colour.

[Fleet Fox]

360 looks sharper, like always

[MNicholas]

360 screens are marginally brighter
PS3 version has better texture quality (particularly noticeable on the hair)

In other words both versions are about equal.

[likedamaster]

...they look identical. Will be getting this badboy for my 360.

Looks like that DELAY payed off.

[ShabzS]

they went with the tim burton / batman TAS arkham style ... smart move ... would still have loved to see a grant morrison's arkham like from arkham asylum a serious house on serious earth... well anyways some of the lines are from the comics themselves... like "the chokes on you"... that was awesome... good stuff

[Evocation]

The Xbox uses slightly higher contrasts etc to make games look "better" but really the PS3 gives a more "realistic" colours
the AA on the ps3 makes it look a little blurry in parts, but it also seems to have better textures in parts

[LONEWOLF231]

Yeah they look EXACTLY the same. And yes it does look a tad bit blurry BUT its nothing game breaking the reason for this is cause quincunx edge-smoothing is running. But man as stated before the PS3 version is the one to buy if you are a multiplat gamer due to the exclusive content.

[Sheikh Yerbouti]

on both systems. Game analysts rate this one a buy. I'm picking up the CE on the 25th.

[MGSR THE HD VERSION]

both look the same in just about everything, one thing did catch my eye however.

360's version appears to have some sort of blur in certain places (more like anti-aliasing, noticeable on hair and foliage)

both are 720p, 360's version apears to be 720p with 2xaa.

[ryuyasho]

.... here... we.... go.... again....

another irrelevant article. just plain waste of space in the N4G servers. speaking of which, you people know why The Joker is only on the PS3 and NOT on the Xbox360??? because of the amount of data The Joker occupied on a disc, didn't fit in a DVD9, hahahahahahahaha oooo I laugh... ---->end of joke<----

...or was it...

[commodore64]

The ps3 has its usual vaseline/quincunx blur applied.

Apart from that, they look very much the same.

[KingsofOmega]

I'm honestly not trying to be biased but the PS3 version looks slightly sharper, with slightly improved textures, and more realistic lighting.

However the difference is so slight in motion you wouldn't see it.

And for all you who disagree. Loot at screenshot 3 in full size, notice the better hair on the PS3 and more detail on the jokers face, and notice how it is slightly better lit, making the guards and the jokers costume look more real.

Look through all the shots and you will find the PS3 is actually superior for once.

[DaTruth]

The blurriness is depth of field effects in the PS3 version, that is lacking in the 360 version. That's why the textures look better in some places on the PS3. Where ever the focus is, that is the part where the textures are better in the PS3 version.

[Finalfantasykid]

Yes indeed.

Things I noticed.
-360 has 1% better lighting
-PS3 has 1% sharper textures

Other than that, they look exactly the same.

[potenquatro]

This is what I don't get about CELL or Xenos. Acording to theese pictures, and my own comparisons in my house, and a couple of commentes on many sites. The PS3 version has better looking textures, alot of times they're not better, but just look better. And the Xbox version gives better performance. To me this sounds like the same pros and cons we've been having from Nvidia and ATI respctively for the last TEN years. At what point do the cotumizations on theese procesors kick in, and give results that are independent from their GPU specs?? When are the "wunder" procesors going to counterweight their GPU cons?? For a while now I've looked at the PS3 as "the Nvidia machine" and the Xbox as "the ATI machine". I feel that's were the console war should concentrate at.

[walken7]

Who cares anymore, "Oh my god, it looks darker, less jaggies, what has more aa?" Who gives a rats a$$. What I want to know, is whether the game will be good, I played the demo, and it's all right, but seems like it may get repetitive. Who cares which one looks a little better, when the game might not be that great anyway.

[GameForFame]

Look damn near identical. Crazy.

[FrankenLife]

It looks like they are running it on PS3 with full range RBG. That setting just adds more shades of black making everything darker. Anyway they both look fantastic. I can't wait for it to come out.

[jack_burt0n]

yup and despite ign talking alot about bad screentearing i have not seen any on the ps3

[MiloGarret]

At least not in the demo, and despite the slight blur seen on these pics I don't notice it while playing. Maybe my tv is just suuuuuuper, lol.

[mastiffchild]

Every game except the PS3 version of Ghostbusters, which I found had awful screentearing issues, I've never actually noticed any of the things they've complained about in this area. RE5 and Dead Space, for instance, I found performed better , on my set up, on the PS3!

It wouldn't surprise me if the game was very close to actual parity this time out as from the two demo versions they really are very close and if that's borne out in the funal game then I can only commend Eidos for doing wonderfully well for the UE3 on a multi plat.

[Nitrowolf2]

Good job to the devs, they are pretty much equal. The only thing that is noticeable different when you switch those picture from version to version is that the PS3 is slightly darker(probaly not even noticable when playing it) then the 360 version. But that not enough to say that one version is superior to another.

[Dead_Cell]

Superior 360 version confirmed.

[dirthurts]

Ha ha. But yeah, that's about as much difference as we can see here.
I would like to hear about frame rates though. But good job. It looks nice.

[Ellessdee]

but i played the ps3 version, and the framerate is solid throughout. did not see a single frame tear, and i even spun the camera around really fast trying to make it happen.

[likedamaster]

Well, at least some of us still have a sense of humor.

[Buckeyes614]

and I must say it look significantly better on the 360, there's more details in the graphics.

[Tomonobu Itagaki]

lol at the guy who created 7 accounts to approve himself.

[FlipMode]

wrong post

[SeanScythe]

Played both demos (PS3 and 360)
and I must say it look significantly better on the PS3, there's more details in the graphics.

See that I did there? And for my next trick I will make one of your bubbles Disappear!

[Sangria]

There's something wrong, why do i see so much aliasing on my TV while those screenshots don't show anything like this?
The game looks great (and is identical on both console) but there's a bunch of flickering aliasing through my TV.

[raztad]

Its true. There is aliasing, at least in the PS3 version.

To answer your question I think those are pre rendered cutscenes using ingame assets. They look better than gameplay by a long shot. I dont know why eurogamer.pt is using those to make comparisons. It doesnt make sense, show us some gameplay pics please.

I'm toying with the idea of getting the PC version instead of PS3's, its just cheaper and my laptop needs a good game to run on :D

[el zorro]

See, that's the problem with screen shots. They often don't show you if one has better anti-aliasing or a better frame rate. Sometimes games look really close in screen shots and then I go compare the games on my own tv and I notice pretty big differences. I have both consoles and I just like to get the best version for my hard earned cash.

[raztad]

I've been making some test of both the PC version plugged through HDMI to my 1080p capable TV, and the PS3 version (HDMI same TV). They look quite similar when PC is running at 1280x720 60Hz (720p) with settings on high. If I increase PC resolution to 1900x1080 60Hz (1080p) game looks quite more sharp, and aliasing is almost non existent even when downgrading the settings into low-to-medium range. At 1080p the PC version framerate takes a serious hit, need a more powerful Pc :D.

[PirateThom]

Someone figured out Unreal Engine.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

yea, i surprised. this could be the first UE3 game that looks 99% equal on both platforms

[Megaton]

I didn't even notice the UE3's trademarked frequent texture pop-in, and that even shows in UE3 games made by Epic themselves.

[Knightrid808]

I saw Unreal Engine at the first screen before the game began and I thought to myself, "Oh boy" but it turns out the graphics looked good.

[Carl1412]

Due to not being in the room during start up, i didn't see the UE logo, so played the demo without knowing. It looks great on PS3, considering UE!

[ShabzS]

... imo the best game that shows off the textures ... especially facial textures was mass effect 1 ... and with games like mirrors edge and xiii its clear that unreal has not been justified by the mass developers ... and now arkham asylum is pushing that texture barrier to even more hights .... but i have a feeling mass effect 2 will push it even furthur ... ue has a lot left in it... it just needs to be used well ... most of its capabilities can be seen in gears 2 as well

[Pistolero]

I am excited for the new graphics features that Epic said are coming with the next update to the Unreal 3 engine....I already think the engine is pretty impressive the way it is now.

[Lfmesquite]

I played the demo, and it might actually be pretty good.

[vShinobi]

PS3 version is slighty darker but besides that they look the same, im getting the PS3 version to play as the Joker.

[Pistolero]

Really?...I thought the 360 version was slightly darker..with darker blacks. Look again.

[likedamaster]

vShinobi's right. PS3 version is darker but barely, quite unnoticeable.

[starchild]

What it is is that the 360 version is more contrasty, ie. blacks are blacker, whites are whiter. So you guys are both right in a sense.

[topdawg122]

Look the same, pointless comparison

[OO7]

There's a lot of damage limitation bullsh*t from the bots which is pointless

[Mo0eY]

PS3 looks better because it has a secret Joker level:
↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → X O at demo screen.

[AngryTypingGuy]

Mooey, I will admit that the Joker level gives the PS3 version the edge. But it doesn't mean that the PS3 version LOOKS better graphically.

Like most comparisons we've seen, the 360 version looks a little crisper while the PS3 version is slightly more blurry. Like in the very first picture for example, if you looks at the vest that the old man is wearing, you'll see more detail in the fabric on the 360 version.

For that reason, I think the 360 has the ever so slight edge visually, but that's being nitpicky. They look pretty much identical.

[Lfmesquite]

Because it's still batman and it's F*cken gay. Why does he have to wear a bat suit? Can't he just wear the regular gear that the other police wear?

He can still kick as much ass, does he have to wear a mask that has long pointy ears? He could kick just as much ass without it.

I don't understand why people do that sh*t. Actually I do understand it, but I don't like it. It's just for F*cken attention.

[Hercules]

but you just said it might be pretty good after playing the demo..

[vShinobi]

Wait on your comment above mine you said "I played the demo, and it might actually be pretty good"now you say "I'm not buying this game because it's still batman and he's F*cken gay" are you bipolar?

[Lfmesquite]

But it's still F*cken batman. What am I, 9 years old?

It's just a kids fantasy, of some hero who wears a bat suit. In real life if a cop goes to work wearing a suit like that, he gets fired.

And Joker should just wash his f*cken face and save people from spending millions of dollars watching this crap.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

yea, say that while reading the comics. batman is looked upon both audiences(mature and kids.) not just the kids audience.

[rucky]

No offense but I don't think you should be playing video games anymore if you can't accept fantasies.

[Lfmesquite]

But Batman and superheros are cheesy fantasy.

[Scarfy]

"But Batman and superheros are cheesy fantasy."

Yep; and people LOVE fantasy and escapism. That's why Harry Potter, Twilight, Transformers, X-Men, Iron Man, Shrek, Hellboy, Spider-Man, Star Wars, Star Trek, etc., etc. are so popular.

And being a gamer, I thought you might get that.

[dirthurts]

That's a costume...
But you don't like costumes? Right?...wait...that's not right.
Anyway, the costume is actually armor, and camo.
It's not the most serious looking suit in the world, but it is meant for the dark. And this is based off a comic book. If you're not interested, look away.
I personally love Batman. And Harley Quinn ; )
I don't have to act like an old fart who can't enjoy himself a little romp in some spandex.

[Blackfrican]

I agree with your dislike for these elementary school fantasy super heroes. Unfortunately, the game is alright, and I may put up with the chucky cheesy children comic characters, as well as the annoying off center perspective, and the gears of war fingers in the ear not allowed to do anything mode, just because the game seems like it can remain fun despite some of my dislikes.

[AKIronMaiden]

And aren't you also forgetting that Batman was created 60 some odd years ago?

[IcyJoker187]

:)

[NegativeCreep427]

I'll assume the MS d*ckhead fanboys are thinking: "Eh, The Joker sucks. Master Chief and living at home till your 40 is better"

Edit @ Murderdolls

That is something of a reasonable explanation. But...Just Who The F*ck Asked You???

[-MD-]

Nah I disagreed with him because I won't be playing the PS3 version.

That's what a disagree is, it means you don't agree with them.

See how my comment below says I'll be playing the 360 version? The people that disagreed with me are obviously going to be playing the PS3 version. Get it?

[Nelson M]

Cause your a BoT
And because you wear Purple Eyeliner

[talltony]

why the hell will you be playing the 360 version when the games look identical and the only difference being you get a free playable joker on one and not the other?
You are one hardcore fanboy! Do you just hate the ps3 that much? are achievments more important to you than getting the better version of a game?

[Pistolero]

There are a lot of factors to consider...controller preference...do you care more about your gamer score or your trophy count?...do you care about being available to your 360 friends or PS3 friends for game invites etc. See, there are a lot of different things to think about. Besides...the 360 version does look a little sharper to me and I am waiting until a proper comparison is done before I make up my mind.

[CobraKai]

That's funny cuz the Joker is in both of them, but playable on PS3

[saimcheeda]

wont play the ps3 version coz he has the imaginary "yellow light of death" :P

[CobraKai]

That's what I thought. The YLoD was a myth. Until I actually got one. It looked like I was "Myth-taken". LOL!!!!!

[360isthebestps3sucks]

ps3 is like the old dreamcast pics..lol

[IcyJoker187]

:(

[danthaman15]

We were starting off good...then you had to doom this boards to the Droids and Bots with that comment. Congrats.

[jay2]

Slight less textures/details on the PS3

[devilhunterx]

wow and you said that without even clicking on the link

[dirthurts]

In the distance there is a very very slight difference in texture. Ever so slightly sharper on the 360. But it's nothing notable. It's not something that you will ever notice when you play, and it shouldn't be a determining factor of which version to buy.

[San Frandisco]

yup,ill be purchasing the one that you can play as the JOKER cuz hes badass.

[danthaman15]

Which version looks better? That depends= which console do you prefer?

[Shadow017]

If they look pretty much identical ill get the one on ps3 with the joker.

[-MD-]

Other than the lighting they pretty much look the exact same.

All my multiplats go to my 360 so that's what I'll be playing this on.

[Qazdaz]

So, despite the fact that they look identical and the ps3 version contains extra content, you'll still buy it on the 360? If that isn't fanboyism then I don't know what is.

[Pistolero]

Don't you think the PS3 version looks a little softer or blurrier?...I can't believe that other people don't notice that. It's not a very big difference...but I can see it. It's probably due to the quincunx anti-aliasing that is usually used on the PS3...which tends to slightly blur the image.

[Man_of_the_year]

@Qazdaz

I have both a PS3 and a 360, and as much as i like the Joker, i will also be getting this on the 360. I want the achievements and it allows me to see when friends come on and invite me to play NHL10 when it releases because i am in a league with some friends so its important for me to know what is going on without changing the game.

@ Pistolero

I also noticed it but it was such a small difference that i still think that the games are equal. You would have never noticed it without the side by side comparisons. I actually think that the PS3 is getting the better version of this game because it looks to be equal visually and has the Joker as exclusive content.

[fossilfern]

WELL look at that no difference

[zack61]

360 version looks brighter ps3 version looks darker

[Hercules]

look the same to me, in some the 360 is darker, and in some the ps3 is darker..but it wont ruin gameplay..all pixels are there...one thing is for sure..the last one is the best considering who will be able to play with him

[Whoooop]

They should do a side by side comparison of the Joker.

Oh wait....

@ BELOW twice as many reviews = FALSE

[-MD-]

Lets not forget 360 usually has twice as many reviewers which leads to an increased chance for a lower score.

But you didn't want to mention that did you?

Edit: I didn't mean literally twice as many, it's called an exaggeration (albeit a small one). But for example

Resident Evil 5 360 = 82 reviews (85)
Resident Evil 5 PS3 = 69 reivews (86)

Street Fighter IV 360 = 77 reviews (93)
Street Fighter IV PS3 = 61 reviews (94)

The article you linked is worthless.

[kaveti6616]

Well, this game looks the same, so get a life.

[bunbun777]

And i know im asking for it--

but by the logic that more reviews invariably lead to lower averages-- why wouldn't the converse be equally true? isnt it based on the actual reviews-- not the overall numbers of reviews-- averages state the more numbers you add the closer to average you will receive-- I dont think that means a game itself becomes more average just because more people review it though--

just a thought.

Average:
relating to or constituting the middle value of an ordered set of values (or the average of the middle two in a set with an even number of values); "the median value of 17, 20, and 36 is 20"; "the median income for the year was $15,000"

[-MD-]

While that is true and I'm well aware it could go both ways, how many games do you see get a 10 compared to a 7?

[bunbun777]

you are saying its more average for any video game to typically get an average score.... i agree. So all having more reviews does for a game is to expose that it is in fact considered more average by more people.

I agree with you from an ideal standpoint-- it would be cool to see the same number of reviews for each platform, -- not that equal numbers would make it equal-- but it'd be getting closer comparatively.

extrapolating truth from numbers that are "given" based on reviews-- its like the science of opinion!

[-MD-]

Someone should take the time to pick out only the reviewers that review both versions.

Then see what the score is.

[ELite_Ghost]

I LOVE XBOX 360!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD THE SCREENSHOTS R SOOOOOOO GUD!!!

[ELite_Ghost]

lol some fwcking retard went into my account

[sam2236]

*Facepalm*

Not this crap again...

[KilZoneGeneralStrife]

why? Awesome they got them both nailed down great

[JOLLY1]

For the demo, yes. I wonder what the installs will be for the ps3.

[likedamaster]

Not that I care but downloaded it this morning and it showed it as a 1.5 gb download on 360.

[clintos59]

Only difference is "Joker" is playable on the ps3 where the 360 version doesnt get. Who knows maybe there will be a different villain for the 360 version, maybe catwoman? Who knows but this game will definately be fun on either system.

[ultimolu]

The game looks good (played the demo for a bit) and they look the same on both consoles.

That's how Unreal Engine should be done.

[Captain Tuttle]

Did you get a 360?

[ultimolu]

BASED...ON...THE...SCREENSHOTS .

To me it looks the same. If I had one, I would say I played it on both consoles.

Please read.

[JOLLY1]

maybe you should have said "based on the screenshots" in your original post. Maybe be less butt hurt and more specific.

[HDgamer]

The game is the same unless you're a fanboy and I see a lot of disagrees for saying it's the same.

[Captain Tuttle]

Just a question...no reason to get mad and use caps.

[ultimolu]

Then you're blind just as he is JOLLY. -_-

If I had both consoles, I would have mentioned I played it on both consoles and they looked the same. Common sense would have told you that I was referring to the screenshots.

[360isthebestps3sucks]

ps3 lost in all mult games ;) ;) ;)

[rucky]

That doesn't appear to be the case here. I think what you're looking for is a Ghostbuster article. Go fetch boy!

[saint_john_paul_ii]

like burnout and bionic commando? yes, i went that far...

if you want to fan the flames of Hell in this zone, please dont. you will get zapped here and kicked out of here in seconds, by the act of God of Course...

As for the Graphics of this Batman game, please stop wearing the green glasses and take another look. the game looks the %100 the same on both platforms.

[el zorro]

Why do people always say that about Burnout? The game was one of the few games that was truly nearly identical on both platforms. In the eurogamer comparison they said:
"Put simply, this is the first truly 'next-gen' game that truly is 99.9 percent identical across both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360; the first title I've looked at for these features that raises the bar technically on both formats, offering the complete, full-fat experience, nothing added, nothing taken away."

[Captain Tuttle]

.1%...that's all it takes on N4G.

[Silly gameAr]

You know what I think. People like you are afraid that this game would look better on PS3 because the best looking game using the UE is Gears. Some people even argue that it looks better than Gears, but you fanboys aren't having that.

That would mean that the crown was taken by a multiplat game, a game on the PS3 as well as the 360, and that would knock one of the 360's flagship titles down a notch.

So far the game looks and plays great but IMO, it doesn't look better than Gears 2, so you guys can breath easy. I just think if Edios can do a game that looks and plays this great on the PS3, why can't Epic.

You dudes need to get a life for real though.

[danthaman15]

I didn't even realize I was looking at two different versions until the 5th screenshot.

[THC CELL]

euro gamers did a ps3 vs ps3

[-Mezzo-]

i am done with comparison, lets all just enjoy the game.

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

I have been on this hmm for a long time and people seem to count the Pixels on every bit of these Multi-format games(and everytime the ChatBots claim(because some ChatBot site says so)that their version is better) It's just a way of the internet and the ChatBots trying to keep people thinking the PS3 is worse but it's not;)

Nothing looks better than 'KillZone 2' on the PS3 on any other Games Console!!!
A TRUE FACT!!! ;-P

Anyway...JOKER 4 THE PS3 EXCLUSIVE WIN!!! ;-D

[-Mezzo-]

Good job Eidos they both are identical according to me.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

I've played both now back to back and can say they look REALLY close but there are some differences. Anyway, enjoy whatever version you want. Mine comes down to controller preference and I had a much more enjoyable time using the 360 controller. The Joker content is tempting however but it's just for challenge rooms.

Bottom line this is the best Batman game I've played and think I will be buying instead of renting after playing the demo.

[likedamaster]

Your comment should have been the first one on here. Anyway, I want that avatar pic gimme a link or something, thanks.

[Klipz-Wish]

Both look identical only difference from what i can tell is 360 has darker shadows

[JonnyBigBoss]

The additional Joker content makes this a no-brainer.

[TheMART]

If you look close, the 360 version looks a tad sharper, better textures and better lightning. Not mutch, pretty close though.

And yet again, its freaking silly that on a console that costs about half the competition the game runs at least as good and just a tad better after the POS3 is on the market for about 3 years now.

POS3, pay double, get less. Nice.

[FlipMode]

......

[-MD-]

Flipmode calling someone else a troll.

Funny stuff.

[FlipMode]

proof please

[Nelson M]

That Batman has Some BoT Repellant Batspray

[el zorro]

Yeah Mart, the textures do look slightly crisper on the 360 version. What really matters to me though is how it runs. I have a feeling it will run better on the 360. I guess we will have to wait for the Digital Foundry analysis to come out before we can find out. For now I am just going to go download the PS3 version and compare it to the 360 version and see how they compare.

[Ric Flair]

.

[Nikesito]

I'M JUST WONDERING WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY PAY MORE GET LESS BECAUSE IF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT GETTING A 60 GIG POS3 AS YOU CALL IT VS 360 20 GIG PRO UNIT YOU GET MORE USB PORTS A BUILT IN BLUERAY DRIVE BUILT IN WIFI AND A MOTION SENSING CONTROLLER PLUS RELIABILITY IF THAT COUNTS FOR ANYTHING AND DID YOU EVER REALLY ADD IN THE FACT THAT IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY PAYING FOR XBOX LIVE AND HAVE BEEN PAYING SINCE THE LAUNCH OF THE 360 THAT YOU ALREADY PAID MORE THAN YOU WOULD FOR THE PS3 JUST DO THE MATH IF THIS GENERATION OF CONSOLES LAST LONGER THAN THE 5 YEAR STANDARD THAN JUST IMAGINE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU'LL PAY SUBSCRIBING TO LIVE AFTER 8 YEARS THATS $400 ALONE

[HBK619]

But the "POS3" Version has MORE CONTENT.

Every real gamer would want more content over negligible graphical differences...

[Pizzagaki]

Are you people not noticing the blur in the ps3 version ?!?!?!
Jeez, My eyes must be superior to that of most humans.

I wonder if they are trying to hide some slight jaggies on the ps3.

[Dick Jones]

I can't imagine how bad it would be blown up on my 50 inch HDTV. It's getting really pathetic how 3rd parties won't put any effort into making their games shine on the PS3. They just port over from the 360 and if the game is optimized close enough to the 360 version then the're happy. The PS3 versions have the potential to look much better than the 360 version, if they're developed by a studio that's willing to take some pride in their work.

[el zorro]

That's the thing that always bothers me about screenshot-only comparisons. Screenshots don't tell the whole story. They don't tell you how the game performs, only how it looks in a static shot. And if there is a difference in a screenshot, the difference is usually much bigger when the image is blown up to the size of a large HDTV (or even a smaller HDTV). The slight blurriness we see in the PS3 shots I can guarantee will be much more noticeable at full size and resolution on my HDTV.

I'm downloading the PS3 version as we speak, so we'll see. This was one of the few multiplat games I was considering getting for my PS3, but if it looks noticeably softer I think I will go with the 360 version.

[Amir51]

First of all, they almost always look exactly the same anyway.

And i mean to someone who just looks at it NORMALLY while playing the game.

And second, even if they were slightly different who honestly gives a f*ck!?

'Oh my console has more advanced pixel shaders, you are ghey!'

Grow up and enjoy the game.

[Pizzagaki]

Its the Sony side that started the whole, my console is superior thing.
Dont blame the competition for using your own tricks now....

But i do kind of agree its useless.

[cygnuszero]

Weird, brighter and sharper on the 360, like every other multiplatform game. Never saw that coming.

The 360 was built as a gaming machine first, hence why so many games look better on it. The PS3 was built as a multimedia machine, which is why only the top titles look as good as 360 games.

[madpuppy]

just sayin' :P

[Silly gameAr]

Is that opinion or fact? Either way, funny stuff. Iv'e been laughing my a$$ off today.

[madpuppy]

I own both and know from experience what both machines can do. well, to be honest I have owned multiple 360's (replacements) and only one PS3.

And I guess you would know seeing that you own both.

if you don't own a Wii yet, don't bother unless you get it as a gift.

[Myth]

Will the PS3 version use the sixaxis?

I heard that it might use it when throwing the batrang. Anyone know?

[GiantEnemyCrab]

I noticed in the options menu there was an option for motion controls. It's off by default and when I turned it on I didn't notice anything different. Not really sure if that is for SixAxis or not.

[TenSteps]

I turned it on the menu and from my experience all it does is maneuver Batman's gliding try it for yourself

[GCO Gamer]

Hope u guys know that the Unreal Engine runs naturely better on the 360 because it was made for the 360.

[Myth]

Epic created a version of the Unreal Engine for the PS3 from the ground up when they made Unreal Tournament. Remember Dead Space.

[CobraKai]

Dead Space wasn't UE3. Cliff Blazinsky made that same mistake. I actually prefer the Dead Space engine.

[OGharryjoysticks]

Epic showed MS what the engine looked like running on the original 360 design specs and told them that if they increased the memory it would look like a second example they showed. Microsoft liked the 2nd more detailed version and spent a ton to increase the spec on the 360 because of the UE3. But from the looks of things Epic doesn't want to lose money because they have an engine that didn't perform well on PS3 at first. They obviously want other 3rd parties to continue to pay for the engine for multiplatform games and from the looks of things have focused on PS3 finally. Either that or Rocksteady did the work because there really isn't a difference here.

[Spike47]

a more complete experience in my opinion.

[Nelson M]

"This is the Best Looking Game they have Seen"
Even Better than Gears 2
They are also sayin
"What you think of the Unreal Engine Now !!"

Well BoTs You Poor Dumb Sucka's
While the Graphics are Decent it aint a Patch on The Best Looking Games on The PS3 and we have Been Privileged to Graphics 10 Times Better than this since the launch of The PS3

And what do we Think of the Unreal Engine now
Well the same as before
It Sucks !!
Now go play it on your Xbox 3Shitsty and Remember MGS4,Killzone 2,Uncharted,Wipeout HD,Resistance 2,GT Prologue to name a few have all been out for a while now and are Games that we Consider to be The Best Graphics on a Console to Date and they aint using the Unreal Engine !!
So as i said "It Sucks !!"

P.s
I hope you all Suffer The RRoD Too

[zack61]

you ps3 and 360 fanboys act like your consoles are god *sigh* god damn retards

[FlipMode]

sorry but i see you do the same thing

[zack61]

yeah when i'm really bored but i do it for fun i'm not being serious like you guys

[Etseix]

why so serious? ;D

[danthaman15]

Nelson, I've never met anyone who has had such a passionate HATRED of another group for liking something you don't. I know the PS3 has more advanced features, but it almost seems like the fact that people are playing the 360 is...GETTING to you. I see you post in this site and name call for at least 7 hours every day. Do graphics really matter if you're not having fun? I tried Uncharted at a friends house, and though it had great graphics, it never really stuck to me. I don't think anyone on this site will know if you hate us or you are simply trolling. You're stereotyping the Xbox group as a whole, and it's getting out of hand. Can we all just stop for gods sake?

[Nelson M]

First : What i wrote is Fact !!
Second : We aint never met
Third : Get a Sense of Humor Thy Stuck up BoT
Forth : Stereotyping ? The BoTs do enough of that themselve's
Fifth : It's not my fault you bought an Xbox so dont take it out on me
Six : I aint got time to waste my Hate on BoTs it's all just a bit of Fun so grow a Pair quit moaning you girl and i hope you Suffer The RRod Soon

[CobraKai]

I thought that this would be another bad UE3 port to ps3. But other than the brightness, it is exactly the same. I don't even think one is sharper than the other, nor are there extra jaggies, they are simply the same. Great job!!!

[ThatCanadianGuy]

So much screen tearing and texture issues on the 360 version.
Whats up with that?

[Tinted Eyes]

its not a good system

[The Stuttttterer]

The 360 is a pile of Sh Sh Sh Shhhhhit

[el zorro]

You're a liar. I have played the 360 version and there are no such issues.

[dustgavin]

It is obvious that the PS3 is the more capable machine for running the unreal engine. Shame that 360 relies on it for so many games.

[XtreemGamer]

The same.. but i will buy the PS3 version because of Joker :)

[Saaking]

I'll bet getting the version that features the most iconic villain in any comic book series: The Joker, only on PS3.

[likedamaster]

Let's not exclude the fact that Joker is only available in the challenge rooms NOT the campaign, on the PS3. But if it makes you feel good and justified be my guest.

[dustgavin]

Probably about as good as it makes you feel making that statement. Sour grapes seem to be on the menu.

[Saaking]

The developers of this game have done a very exemplary job on this game. It looks fantastic, plays fantastic, and they've managed to make it look EXACTLY the same on both consoles. Very well done job.

[Monkey D Luffy]

The first screenshot which was avaliable in high resolution actually looked slightly better on the PS3 imo, however when it was reduced to "SD" there was a slight blur on the PS3.

[Silly gameAr]

I'm sure I'll find something wrong with the PS 3 version. I'll get back to you guys.

[CobraKai]

LOL!!! Jerk-ass:)

[JasonPC360PS3Wii]

Poor PS3 will it ever win one?

[DRIIV]

Joker

[NegativeCreep427]

Poor Jason will you ever win a friend?

You look in all the wrong places. You should be looking on the cute little yellow bus for friends. You know, the bus where everyone wears helmets, yet no one plays football. They'd understand your nonsensical B.S.

[Saaking]

Don't insult those poor boys by comparing them to this bot. They don't deserve such a bad comparison, the bots are below the mentally retarded. It's like calling a 360 Sh!t. You're insulting the sh!t by comparing to the 360.

[dustgavin]

Jason is just upset that their prized unreal engine runs just as good on the Ps3. Pretty sad that a multi-platform game looks better than what 360 has to offer in exclusives. *cough cough* Gears of war 2

[dirthurts]

They would include the pc version.
But it would be hard to do... considering everyones pc is different. They could use the average computer, as according to the steam poll.

[mrblacknut]

Nothing to debate here. Both games look exactly the same. We have to give the developers props for keeping both games looking similar and they provided a great demo. I went from wasn't sure to day 1 purchase.

[Hercules]

but itsnt the whole point of batman to be darker and spooky? thats just me..i said they look the same, some pics are brighter than others whether its 360 or ps3...but if the ps3 has sixaxis, home support, and the joker..then i guess i will get it for that..considering i only have a ps3 lol...but yeah great job at the devs for making a true identical game...go Edios!!..err Square

[sak500]

ps3 droids always get short end of the stick yet they spin it in their favor.

For example: 360 has sharper images and ps3 has blurrier textures. SPIN: You know sharp things hurt the eyes so ps3 version takes care of the players eyes.

[dustgavin]

and bots can't handle that their only good exclusives are overshadowed by a multi-platform game.

Sad thing is that this game cannot even hold a candle to the first Uncharted.

[Guitarded]

They can't win for losing. Losers!

[Saaking]

@murderdolls

You're right that the 360 has more reviews thus leads to a higher chance for a low score; however, if turned around it can also lead to a higher chance of higher reviews:

Ex.
PS3 gets 2 reviews 9,9= avg. 9
360 gets 4 reviews 9,9,8,8= avg. 8.5

In the above example your logic is right; however it can also turn out something like this

Ex.
PS3 gets 2 reviews 9,8= avg. 8.5
360 get 3 reviews 9,8,9= avg. 8.66

Here the 360's extra review pushes it above the PS3. As you can see, your logic can be applied both ways and is both a disadvantage and advantage given the circumstances.

[Dark Pheonix Films]

Did people not think of that first, man people are delusional today, it shouldn't take Saaking here to explain that, but thanks anyway for shutting everyone up.

[archemides518]

DUDE THIS IS TAKEN FROM A CINEMATIC VIDEO SO OF COURSE IT IS THE SAME

IT IS NOT RENDERED IN-GAME

what a joke, there is no difference.

if u watch the video in the demo there is compression all over the place

and just comparing the ps3 demo to the videos gametrailers posted yesterday, there is AT LEAST the difference of anti-aliasing on the 360 version compared to none on the ps3...which is standard for any unreal engine game. the videos they posted weren't clear enough to see texture differences...but i don't doubt there are some unfortunately (i only have ps3, the most i can hope for is true 720p on UE)

again any u people seeing real differences just got played

[saint_john_paul_ii]

"DUDE THIS IS TAKEN FROM A CINEMATIC VIDEO SO OF COURSE IT IS THE SAME
IT IS NOT RENDERED IN-GAME"

no its not.

[archemides518]

bet u 5 cents it is

or PERHAPS it is rendered in-game on the 360 (tho unlikely), but it is NOT rendered in-game on the ps3--digital artifacting doesn't come from nowhere (like boxes in smoke). u r wrong i looked at it a bunch to see how bad the ps3 was gonna get gimped

[TheMART]

Funny ^^^^^

PS3 fantards know the 360 version looks better as always and will run better as always. They know that a machine that cost half of their beloved PS3 performs better. It must hurt.

So they start crying over having Joker, because if they all talk about that, they don't have to cry themselves asleep over always having the inferior versions of multiplatform games.

Cry me a river Sony fandroids.

[PR3DAT0R]

http://skepticalteacher.fil...
The xbox version has no graphical superiority over the ps3's, you are the biggest troll since PP and his multiple accounts, you may remember him as Flopzone2 or 360isthebestps3sucks. Mart just f*ck off to your life and leave n4g, i speak for many others here, no one wants your opinion, you are a blinded fanboy who is too stubborn to enhance the truth, and you go into denial when you cant take being wrong, don't worry theres loads of you your not alone, but still for the record if i knew you in real life i would actually knock some sense into you dumb ass.

-PREDATOR-

[TheMART]

Uhm, yes it has, if you look at the pictures you'll see the 360 version isn't that tad blurry as the PS3 version shows.

In 98% of all multiplats its like this, so the 360 version has a graphical supiority over the PS3. And worst thing for PS3 is it costs double the 360 and does less. That must hurt. Even if it would be on par, it should hurt. As a double the price machine should be double as good in the end result. It clearly isn't, the PS3 fails.

"for the record if i knew you in real life i would actually knock some sense into you dumb ass. "

You wouldn't stand straight up for 5 seconds dork.

[Lazarus69]

@mart thats a stupid thing thing to say since when has a consoles price had anything to do with how a multiplatform game looks

[Dark Pheonix Films]

Well the blur you describe is not a negative feature at all, in fact it makes the picture more realistic in a sense, you fail once again.

[PR3DAT0R]

"You wouldn't stand straight up for 5 seconds dork." look at this way, i choose PREDATOR to be my avatar, to represent him on n4g must give some people the idea i compare myself to him, you however create a annoying sh*tty avatar of someone pissing on sony for you, now you call me a dork but you spend most of your spare time attacking a gaming console, that says alot about your personality and from that i can judge your physical appearance, and for you to be ignorant enough to say what you said to someone you have never met before in your life is very stupid, and i stand on what i said, i would beat your ass into submission and break all of your fingers so you couldn't spread all the sh*t around n4g, why don't you f*ck off no one wants you hear, don't you get that you idiot.

[TheColbertinator]

Looks the same to me.Hehehe

[CWMR]

-Looks pretty close to me, just that the 360 version looks slightly sharper and clearer.-

[ThatCanadianGuy]

-Hahaha! Good joke man, made me laugh-

[BasilMarceaux]

someone finally got a multiplatform game correct without gimping one version. Thanks Eidos.

There really is no difference, and if you notice a significant difference, you are 100% fanboy.

[CWMR]

-Not a big difference, but the 360 version does look a bit sharper and clearer to me.-

[OGharryjoysticks]

I guess Sony has some deal, but most deals are not forever and/or could be broken with enough money to break them. Just from playing the demo and watching the Joker it looks like it will be great because I heard he has his own moves and it looks like they will be full of cheap shots and stuff. If you have the option to pick it up on either system however I would definetely recommend the PS3 just in case the deal sticks.

[bligmerk]

These screenshot comparisons look virtually identical although Eurogamer doesn't go into how they got these screenshots.

Now, let's see how long it takes for Lens of Lies to do another one of their idiot head2heads with the PS3 "screenshots" all washed out and blurry and for them to blabber incessantly about the quincunx AA doing that.

[Pistolero]

Quincunx anti-aliasing does blur texture detail...this is a well known fact...also, a lot of times the PS3 version does have less contrast and looks more washed out...so I wouldn't blame it on Lens of Truth.

[BasilMarceaux]

The lens of truth screenshots always make it look like they turned the brightness and contrast way up for the ps3 version to make them look washed out.

I check their comparisons before buying and I think its a really helpful site, but come on..something fishy is goin on over there.

[keysy420]

your like the only xbot ( no offense) that has a real reason for not getting it on the ps3. most xbots just sound dumb but you actually make sense.
i can see not wanting to change systems to play different games, but most bot are lik ei have a ps3 but im not gonna get it on ps3.that's just bull

i think developers are doing the best they can to make the games as equal as possible.and this one you can't even tell which is which usually i can but not with this game.

[keltickennedy]

All of these shots look identical cause in fact they are exactly that. The cutscenes that are featured in the game seem to be pre-rendered. They are in-game yes, but they aren't running realtime in engine. It a nice way to minimize load times. The game assets and levels load as the movies are playing.

People have to take off their fanboy glasses. Even in the PC demo the cutscenes are the same. And that is the best looking version (if you have the rig to play it).

Wait to judge until they release gameplay comparative shots. It will actually be interesting to see the consoles compared to the PC version personally. I played all versions of the demo and the PC version has effects and assets not even featured in the console versions. For example, dynamic moving fog effects, destructible pillars and hanging banners in the last area of the demo.

[ShadowCK]

They both look the same apart from one (Xbox 360) being a little bit brighter than the other (Playstation 3). The Joker is only available in the challenge rooms and not the actual campaign, only absurd fanboys would actually brag over something that stupid.

I would recommend buying the version which you think has the most comfortable controller. I personally think the Xbox 360 has the best controller.

[Pistolero]

Yeah man, I love the 360 controller...it's the best controller ever created in my opinion.

[Dark Pheonix Films]

To be honest we can all find are most favored controller, personally the Xbox controller feels more comfortable in a sense, the ps3 controller has symmetrical layout which i like. all together i think that they both suit there customers to a satisfactory standard, delivering quick responsive commands to the game but on the hole this subject is mostly based on opinion which can and should be shared with consideration, we must all respect each overs opinion.

[cr33ping_death]

blah blah blah..... im getting the game on the PS3, just on the sole fact that my 360 has crapped out me twice before.... well that and THE JOKER :)

[cr33ping_death]

well according to someone i wont be getting it for the PS3 :( damn i was so looking forward to it. i guess i should get it for the 360 because someone decided to disagree with me :(......... hhhmmmmm nahhh ill still get it for the PS3

[deshon09]

i dont think it maters what system you get it on we are getting one hell of a game

[Marquis_de_Sade]

I wonder if fanboys will ever accept the opinion of a fanboy on the other "side".

It's amusing how if you prefer console "X" to console "Y" because YOU prefer the controller, you will get a rack of comments calling you an idiot fanboy and stating how the other controller is better.

Ah the joys of the open zone and N4G in general.

[adlt]

Both versions look very nice!

[JJFNIGHTS80]

They both look exactly look the same. The only thing I see in Gordan's picture his face structure looks have more than the Xbox 360. And the Xbox 360 version of the Joker face compare to the PS3, PS3 is a little lighter and the 360 version is a bit darker. But both still looks the same. When I click on the picture one zoom other don't.

[xtreampro_REVENGE]

They both look sh1t and this game doesn't show the true potential of both console but if you compare exclusives (which is why 360 fans chose a 360 in the first place) then the PS3 destroys the 360 period.

But I do agree the 360 version looks darker and the PS3 version looks slightly lighter but that can be adjusted through your TV settings.

[Nikesito]

Lmfao I can't believe what I'm reading from these 360 fanboys sh!t tards! Are you serious....better? They look the same! And another thing why would I pay 60 bucks for a DVD and get less content than with the Blu ray I can get replayable value?....360 fans are so blinded by stupid machine they call a console. I'm just not understanding it at all.

360 sh!tboys...wake the hell up!

[Omega]

I downloaded both the 360 and PS3 versions. played them both again and again.and I still see the PS3 version more detailed and no jaggy. especially when you 1st see the commissioner from the side it looks more detailed and when he's facing you, his glasses are not jaggy like on the 360 version.

[madkrazygames]

I notice that too, the PS3 version is a little bit more detailed than 360, but hey before you 12 year old MS cheerleaders disagree with me, that's just my opinion. Beside Lens of Truth is going to make ya'll feel better with the "so called" superior version, so enjoy.

[PR3DAT0R]

I can see basically no difference between them, any difference there is does not create a negative impact on the other, finally the unreal engine has proven to work fine on the ps3 again, and for the record Mart you are a dumb c*nt, a troll, and the most annoying member of n4g.

-PREDATOR-

[Dark Pheonix Films]

I think this guys got the idea, talking for a non bias point i would say neither of them are better, they should be treated equally, no one wants to hear the fanboyism, PS3 fanboys and xbots alike.

The bit about The MART is a bit harsh, but fair.

[ZILLA]

all the xbots are 18 and under and playing on a 27 inch sd tube tv in there room!!PS3 FTW!!!!!

[danthaman15]

And you are coming onto a comment board and bragging about something that isn't true!

[cloud9wpi07]

and they will look identical

[Lawliet]

And who said the Unreal Engine don't work great with the PS3?

[ikral]

And what if one version looks better? Should we sell our consoles and buy another ones? Or just to make suicide? This is multiplatform, they cannot look the same. End of story.

[BasilMarceaux]

I definitely dont want to make suicide over this. I dont even want to make sadness.

I was waiting to see if the comparison was going to give me a reason to second guess getting the ps3 version.
In my honest opinion, they look exactly the same, so Ill go with the one with the exclusive content. And for the first time in history, that is actually the ps3 version. wow, sony finally wrote someone a check.

[FernandoMartinez]

To the guys sayingPS3 looks blurier: I dont think you are looking at the pictures right... Look at the lower left corner (when you got the 360 picture selected, in the upper bar the PS3 icon apears blue and vice versa, so look at the lower left corner for a tag).

Because the PS3 definitely looks more crisp than the 360. It's not a big difference and probably isnt even noticable in motion, but in the screens the 360 has blurier textures.

[Bren86]

360 version looks slightly better to me.

[Kyur4ThePain]

Y'all still counting pixels?

[jalen247]

Looks exactly the same. One is slightly darker than the other. All the textures are exactly the same. None is sharper than the other. If you see it differently then you are a fanboy. One version does not have an advantage on the other graphically. Since this game is not a multiplayer game, online doesn't factor into it. PS3 version has the advantage overall because of the exclusive content. After playing the demo, I don't see how anyone would give up playing as the joker if they had the choice between getting this game on the PS3 or the 360. This game is that good...

[Obama]

Looks the same but bots will be playing the much inferior version with no joker. Even the joker thinks the 360 is a joke.

[Dark Pheonix Films]

Finds everything a joke

[Whut]

ahh c'mon the ps3 version is just a lil more darker thats it.

Xbox 360 still the best tho Yurrr!!

[bligmerk]

The Joker looks fantastic in the PS3 demo, the detail is very good. Oh, and he is playable on the PS3.

[darrensworld]

I don't usually sweat these comparisons, i do admit ghostbusters was a bit disappointing since right now im a pc/ps3 gamer. I applaud the developers for delivering such a great looking game on all platforms, anyone know if 360 or ps3 was the lead platform?

[MaximusPrime]

Looking at the comparison i cant see any differences. 360 may be slightly brighter but who cares? Does it affect u playing a game?

I played demo on ps3 and am very impressed. Im sure you xbox 360 owners very impressed too.

I havent decided whether i should get the game or not. But id rather wait. I like that exclusive joker idea, hope it remain exclusive to ps3 unlike what soul caliber had done.

[Karum]

I haven't bothered looking at the screenshots but I will say that I've tried the PS3 Demo and the game looks pretty good, gameplay is decent too.

Might trade in Prototype for this game.

[caRnAGEconcept]

awful lotta jibber jabber over such a small thing... i'd put 20 bucks on every n4g member doin a "pepsi challenge" of sorts with these sets of pix...

blind-fold em', spin em around in a computer chair; and my middle testicle says no one could tell the difference..

[felidae]

i played both versions and i have to say that i like the PS3 version a little bit more. the colors are better and i like the sixaxis controller more for this game.

[madkrazygames]

I noticed that too, not saying the 360 version is bad (not by a long shot) but it's usually the other way around. But fanboys can't admit when their system of choice is not the "superior version". Most of the people making comments about the game probably didn't even play both or don't even have an HDTV. But hey wait for the losers at LoT to come up with their H2H.

[ConMan]

I just played the DEMO on xbox only the gold members can download it an i can tell you this much now i was really impressed by this game, dint think it would be this good Blown away.

[7zark7]

but i'm not saying what they are, suffice to say I know which version I will be getting.

[rickyjb23]

because it is the same these pics are from the cutseen. the pc version xbox and ps3 all have the same cut sceen which runs at 30fps. its just the same video.

[SuperSaiyan4]

The PS3 version as always with pretty much many of PS games in the past is blurry I hate blurry, I like clarity and detail and thats what all Xbox 360 games offer. I own both consoles but the 360 does win hands down every time with multi plat games and exclusives.

[NateDPG]

You need a new helmet with better vision Master Fail lololol

PS3
http://images.eurogamer.net...

360
http://images.eurogamer.net...

[JonnyBigBoss]

PS3 is the better looking version, and also has the Joker campaign. If you can't see that then you are blinded by your own stupidity.

[djroberts]

The look identical except the 360 version is a bit brighter. The contrast ratio still felt simular. They are so close I'd likely fail a blind test if I played one for more than a few minutes.

It comes down to controller preference and exclusive content. Oh, of course it also matters if one of your consoles is currently broken. I know what you're all thinking but no, it's my PS3 that's dead.

[B00M]

What a surprise, his avatar is master chief! They look identicle, jeez some people are very sad XD

[yoghurt]

if you have both consoles surely its a no brainer??

360 = no joker
PS3 = playable joker in challenge rooms

[rjgbyrne]

Was thinking Xbox might be slightly more refined but I was wrong. Both look similarly fantastic, way to go Edios. No, as far as I am concerned being and Xbox owner you can go to hell if you think I am buying this game as a multiplat with the Joker on PS3 only. That kind of stuff is destroying the gaming industry and the DLC service for all machines. Batman, you can stay away from my xbox...

Nothing new, the games with great graphics look better on the PS3.

The PS3 demo supports 1080p if you force it by deselecting all the other resolutions except 1080p on your PS3 consoles.

Well i was kinda excited until finding out that this game is running on the UE 3.. after looking at the screenshots, it's pretty obvious even though, it does look significantly better than Gears does.

[PS360PCROCKS]

Wow they're identical!! But damn this game looks good, like REALLY good. The Joker looks insane.

FAIL.

Pre-rendered cutscenes from the demo.

not in-game screenshots.

[Rowsdower]

that this demo are what demos are supposed to be, hell the demo has replayability. I've played it out different ways and found hidden and cool things each time I play. If the demo has me coming back then the full game cant come soon enough.

regardless of console we as gamers have a great game coming out in a couple of weeks. enjoy!

360 version has brighter colors compared to the PS3 version..
I know which version im getting.

[Demon5500]

You guys can say what ever you want about 360, But this game was Dev mainly for ps3, and guess what they give you the joker just to fill space up on your blue ray disk :) but still I would rather have sharper textures then joker, That is two games now that I was looking forward to on ps3, that I will now get on Xbox, Come on guys go play ghostbusters on ps3 and then go play it on 360 same old same old but still 360 looks better, remember it doesn't mater if you win by an inch or a mile wining is wining :)

it was nov developed for the ps3.

it was ported. Unreal engine.

I think to me it is going to come down to the Joker for PS3. I too played both demos, switching between systems during game play. The only differences I could see were that the 360 has more contrast, Batman's gloves and face have that shiny plastic look and the aa is better on thin geometry. The PS3 version does seem a bit darker with default settings but I increased the brightness which looked fine then. The skin on the PS3 models (especially B Man) look better than on the 360 but the AA isn't as good, just on the prison bars. Honestly, the AA issue isn't a big deal unless you're taking the time to walk slowly towards long skinny bars to see the problem on purpose. I usually get 360 games because I like the controller better but I think anyone would feel happy getting either version.

Those pics are from the movie, these are from the gameplay.

the graphics on the game are probably just as good as each other so we should just enjoy the game on both consoles

[caffman]

but When it comes down in price I will get the 360 one because I want the achievements

[GrandDragon]

Looks identical, only difference being the shadowing technique. The Shadow for the Xbox360 is darker because they cant render the texture so they cover parts of the body by darkening the shadow.

PS3 has lighter more detailed shadow which allows for the textures to be more transparent

[AriesFury]

it was the same game except for the exclusive Joker for the PS3.

[CobraKai]

They should of had sixaxis support for batarang throws. then again maybe not

[Campy da Camper]

Thanks for the link! Those look almost identical. Some, a little more detail in the 360 and some on the PS3. (Especially the flowers)

[djroberts]

They both look good but the real question is the framerate. I don't want a choppy, screen torn version.
