How Many PS3 Games Run @ 60FPS ?

An interesting list put together by a member of the PSU Forums. Groups all the current PS3 games in order of performance. The exclusives top the list with the best frame rates 60FPS or close and at the bottom you will notice that the ports fall short and are usually consistent with low frame rates and frame rate drops.

The ones that topped the list:

Smooth as silk / 60fps or close to it: 9 games (22.5%)
Resistance: Fall of Man
Ridge Racer 7
Gran Turismo HD
Virtua Fighter 5
Virtua Tennis 3
MLB 07: The Show
Formula One Championship Edition (in my opinion, the blur ruins the crispness though)
Ninja Gaiden Sigma demo
Folklore demo

How many PS3 games have 4D with 120fps @ 1080P?

razer6529d ago

Under this guys picture that says IGNORE. It's a great feature.. Hopefully if enough ignore him maybe he will go away?

closedxxx6529d ago

That is officially the last comment I read of his. gotta love the "Ignore" option.
Similar to the "STFU" option in the Halo 3 beta... It was beautiful to cut out all the crap from the 9 year olds, and the guy taking massize rips off his water bong in the middle of a match

Antan6529d ago

You sir, are also a disease of this site.

Lucidmantra6529d ago

It doesn't say anything about 1080p @ 60 fps anywhere in that POST on a FANSITE. It says runs at 60 fps.

Just for clarification. I am not saying it isn't 1080p I am just saying it doesn't say it.

gta_cb6529d ago

Bill Gates you are a complete moron and need to grow up, yes there are fanboys on this site, just like on others but only you seem to talk crap ALL the time!

and yeh to who ever said he likes the ignore aka STFU button, i have now decided to use it for the first time since i have joined this site.

TruthHurts6529d ago

if you ignore someone your a H0eM0 and you takes this sit way to seriously.

and is something Bill Gates said untrue?
i don`t think so.
maybe you don`t like it, but people said it, hes just repeating it.

maybe MS should think before they say things not bill gates.

keep on, keeping on billy.

Lucidmantra6529d ago

and to you I raise the same question asked by 1.3

If Xbox is making promises and saying things that at a later date look like pure dreaming or do not pan out...

Where is the games working in 4d with dual HDMI output running 120 fps @ 1080p

I believe that the physics system in FORZA 2 works at over 100 fps to calculate physics in the game. the graphics engine works at 60 fps (onscreen you can see it) where as the physics engine works behind the scenes to compute physics.

I am just asking a rational question to someone who seems quick to point out the flaws for Xbox and not understand that the only people NOT talking nonsense about the other companies is Nintendo. I appluad their company from trying to run a relatively "clean" campaign. Sony and Microsoft are right onboard with the current worldstate of playing dirty politics. You said this... You promised this... etc. etc.

Lastly people who stand in glasshouses should not be calling other people names.

Doesn't GTHD and Resistance run at 30fps????

hella whip6529d ago

GTHD is 60FPS in game 30FPS on the replay

23478ueyur_9382236529d ago

R:FoM is 30 fps. It says "smooth as silk / 60fps", so I assume R:FoM is there for the "smooth as silk" part (it is quite stable), but that makes it a bit misleading seeing as the title would make it seem that all those games are 60fps, which for R:FoM isn't the case.

Solid framerate nonetheless.

Bebedora6529d ago

your name is gcfan2k5.Do I need to fill you in?

Crazyglues6529d ago

GTHD plays too smooth not to be 60fps so i'm pretty sure it is... and trust me I play that a lot, for a racing game you would indeed notice if it was not 60fps.

It’s Time for Sony to Bring Back Killzone and Resistance

Sony is in the middle of an FPS crisis, but bringing back two much-loved PlayStation shooters could easily be the solution.

shinoff2183329d ago

I'd rather them focus on a rpg. Shooters can wait

just_looken329d ago

We have alot of rpg's but only cod for a AAA first person shooter unless you toss in xdefient but that is still fixing 2yr old beta issues.

We need more AAA fps games then rpg's

shinoff2183329d ago

Yea right. Theirs so many shooters on the market.

just_looken328d ago

@shin

Name 3 AAA fps games coming out this year

Cacabunga328d ago

I want Killzone yea, but as a gaas no buy!

Cacabunga328d ago

Yes we need some new FPS experiences.. COD is just not engaging enough. We want a Killzone back to the roots, not a Shadow Fall again..

Crows90328d ago

There's tons of RPG in the market too...what's your point exactly.

RaidenBlack328d ago

No Killzone or Resistance or Factions for you ... only Concord & FairGame$

Ironmike328d ago

No more rpg for a while would love a new resistance though

DarXyde328d ago

Agree on preferring RPGs though at this exact moment, it would be great to see more horror games. Another reason why Japan Studio closing is just tragic. Loved Siren.

just_looken328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

Fuck jim ryan japan studio did so much and helped alot with ports/localization

If they were around bloodborn would be possible like how they helped with demon souls ps4 finial fantasy port.

Horror games would be nice but the jim ryan axe job helped alot in killing playstation dev numbers/freedom and increased regulation with the new censorship crap.

1Victor328d ago

If Sony is bringing back a old shooter I would prefer Warhawk or better yet Starhawk

Rynxie328d ago

No thanks. Resistance and killzone were my all time favorite fps games. I completely dominated those games. I met good people, had a ton of fun and have a lot of fond memories. I don't want them to bring back these games, unless they tackle the cheating epidemic. I know I will absolutely hate these games, if I was to play them now, with all the effing cheating going on in fps games.

Psychonaut85328d ago

Bro the market is oversaturated with quality RPGs AND bloated shitty RPGs already.

Inverno329d ago

I honestly don't think we'll be seeing these anytime soon, if ever. Insomniac is officially on Marvel duty since it seems that all they're working on based off the leaks, and Horizon is more of what the casuals want these days. And I now I'll get a bunch of disagrees, but keep in mind that Resistance last got a game on the PS3 (2011) and Killzone was a launch title for the PS4 (2013). 10 years is a long time to make a game, if had any interest they would've done it by now, add InFamous to that list.

just_looken329d ago (Edited 329d ago )

Your right except the dates killzone mercenary was on ps vita 2013 same with resistance burning skies back in 2012

Good-Smurf328d ago

Both of those games are either made by smaller B team or completely different developer.
Killzone Mercenary developed by Guerilla Cambridge which is now defunct.
Resistamce Burning Skies wasn't made by Insomniac but by Nihilistic Software also defunct after the failure of CoD Black Ops Declassified.

just_looken328d ago

@good i know i never said they were

I mentioned them as they were the last games under that ip well killzone was last on ps4 but still even though they are different devs they led to the lose of the ip.

I highly doubt they made up for there budget cost even killzone on ps4 had low sales for such a large ip at the time.

shinoff2183329d ago

Infamous should atleast get remastered. I'd be cool with that

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH329d ago

Resistance 3 turned me off to the series but I’d love a reboot. KillZone I think can stay dead. Give me a new Resistance like 1or 2 and I’ll be happy.

JEECE329d ago

Except Resistance 1 and 3 were far more similar, 2 was the outlier. 3 was a great return to form after 2 changed so many things from the first game.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH328d ago

I didn’t like 3 and I didn’t find it similar to the first game.

Moegooner329d ago

2 was the best resistance game.

Michiel1989328d ago

agreed, the co-op was my fav in 2

Michiel1989328d ago

I'll keep saying it, have Bungie make a new resistance game, a match made in heaven. Although I imagine Bungie would be too proud to take over an existing IP.

Huey_My_D_Long329d ago

I honestly never cared or liked killzone. Huge resistance fan though. I remember so many nights playing melee only on USS Lexington, and I like the alt history vibe.

InUrFoxHole328d ago

Liked KZ more but both those games are better than MAG

Huey_My_D_Long328d ago

Facts.
Since I'm down memory lane, I also wish for remaster of Warhawk.

P_Bomb329d ago

I’ve been barking up that tree for years. 😢

Keep barking, boy! Keep barking! Never give up hope. ;)

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

OtterX418d ago (Edited 418d ago )

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro418d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72418d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_418d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga418d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos418d ago (Edited 418d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23418d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000418d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin418d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole418d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix418d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989418d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor418d ago (Edited 418d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Remembering the Best JRPGs on the PS3

Get ready to embark on a journey filled with monsters, magic, and overpowered haircuts, because this list features the best JRPGs on the PS3.

shinoff2183633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

There wasn't that many. Thanks to the west's criticism. It was definitely lacking compared to every other ps system. Dont get me wrong there were a few good ones i know that.

jznrpg633d ago

Nier, Valkyrie Chronciles, Tales games , Ni No Kuni, Resonance of Fate, FF13’s, Ys8 just a few off the top of my head and there were a lot more.

CrimsonWing69633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

Not nearly to the degree of PS1 and PS2.

@shinoff2183 makes a good point that around the PS3/Xbox 360 gen is when the genre wasn’t as prevalent and began to shy away from turn-based. There’s some standouts for sure, but look at the PS1 and PS2 JRPG library and then compare that to the PS3 and PS4’s.

Theres definitely a decline in a selection of titles. Even worse was the quality seemed to take a massive hit as well. I think Lost Odyssey was a huge standout for that gen when you look at production values, then you look at something like Fairy Fencer on the PS3 and it’s kind of depressing.

But by that generation there was a shift from western developed games overtaking Japanese developed games. Back from the NES to PS2 Japanese games were the cream of the crop… I don’t know what happened but like midway into the PS3/360 life-time they became less so.

shinoff2183633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

Compared to the ps1 ps2 and he'll even ps4 ps3 doesn't hold a candle to either imo. It's also when turn based damn near disappeared. Again thanks to the west's criticism

Crimson I'd put money on the west being at fault, guys like Phil phish, and numerous others at that time were attacking jrpg and Japanese games in general pretty hard.

Ni no kuni was probably my fav jrpg back then , and the blue dragon

GameBoyColor632d ago

Tales got kinda lucky here. When they took a chance and finally brought tales of graces f over west it sold like 250k lmao a lot of jrpgs did 500k or below. Disgaea was worse i think. Bamco decided to keep bringing more games over though.

Tapani633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

Demon's Souls, Dark Souls and Dark Souls II were the best RPGs on PS3 made by Japanese developers. Everything else just fell short always. Ni No Kuni was a full package, an okayish game as well. Nier and Drakengard III had superb writing, setting and voice acting, however, the performance was a real drag on the gameplay. Traditional RPG-wise I'd actually say 360 had better JRPGs, and think that Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon were the best traditional JRPGs of the era. PS3 Valkyria Chronicles was okay, but it is closer to an SRPG.

Ryu Ga Gotoku games were also solid, they were still finding their footing and breaking new ground with new cities and formats.

PS3 was the era that almost made me quit gaming and I started playing on PC because I could not find good performance nor games on the system. PS4 got me back into it, and now PS5 is a mix in and between, I just play my PS4 library on the PS5 and rest on PC, just like during the PS3 era. The only new exclusive Sony JRPG is pretty much FFXVI and it is so streamlined and simplified from the normal RPG experience that I can't fit it into the genre anymore. Dragon Quest XII hopefully remedies all of this, but it is just one game.

These new games will all be on PC (while it does take 2-3 years to wait, and 6-12 months from launch to have them patched + fixed by modders) and they perform better on it. The only point in owning a PS5 is to play games a couple of years earlier, but for a hard-working family man like me, the quality of the experience is more important than playing it as soon as possible. And I can't do modern games at 30fps 720p after playing 120fps at 4K. For older games, that's okay.

PSX and PS2 though, those were the days...Still have a massive collections of classic RPGs in CD and DVD format and a phat PS3 to play them!

FinalFantasyFanatic633d ago

It's kinda like that, the PS3 generation was a bad time for JRPGs, especially with the Japanese feeling the need to westernize their games, shooters dominating that gen, the racism from western game journalists (it was bad, between G4, Phill Fish, and a slew of others), and the higher development costs...

It really made me miss the PS1/PS2 days of JRPGs, even the quality of half of those games during the 7th gen weren't as good. The 360 tried, but Microsoft's consoles weren't popular in Japan and no body in the West bought a Xbox for JRPGs (despite Xbox having Vesperia, Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey).

on_line_forever632d ago

" It's kinda like that, the PS3 generation was a bad time for JRPGs, especially with the Japanese feeling the need to westernize their games "

This is when everything fall down and games looks not fun to play anymore except for few games like demon and dark souls for example

-Foxtrot633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

Nah. It's a bad trilogy of games

The only reason XIII-2 stands out is because XIII was so bad

When the bar is so low, anything after feels better.

goldwyncq633d ago

The monster catching mechanic was nice.

Eonjay633d ago

Don't understand the hate for it at all. Seems forced.

shinoff2183633d ago

Watching the credits roll on ff16 now it is good but , I'd really like to re try ff13 least it's turn based and would fill that gap for me.

FinalFantasyFanatic633d ago

They got better after the first one in the trilogy, not outstanding game though.

CS7633d ago

Honestly, I played FFXIII a few years after release and maybe because it was after the hype cycle and I knew the flaws of the game, it actually became my favorite FF after VII.

I took off the mini map and never used auto battle and the stuff that mattered to me in an FF was just so well done.

The art and graphics were insane at the time
The music is still special
The story still lingers in memory more than a decade later
The RPG systems were decent

I never really got the hate for it, still have a soft spot for that game inside me.

goldwyncq633d ago

Still better than XV and XVI.

Yui_Suzumiya633d ago

Drakengard 3 goes for a small fortune nowadays

Knightofelemia633d ago (Edited 633d ago )

Only gripe I have with Ar Tonelico 3 is that Saki is annoying as hell whether English or in Japanese. Then Saki's English voice actor became Ionasal on Ar Nosurge she was a little annoying but not as bad. Johnny Young Bosch voicing Tatsumi I thought he did a great job. And Akiko Shikata with her vocals and the music from the games just went hand and hand.

DarkZane633d ago

I wish Ar No Surge and Ar Tonelico 3 would be remastered on PS4/PS5.
