I find it interesting that people are reporting that their version of Red Dead Redemption on PlayStation 3 looks nothing like the pictures. I'll find out this Friday, but I have a feeling that I'll be joining them.
I swear to goodness...if i bought this on the ps3 i would be satisfied but pissed.....Gamers, seriously...don't let this slide. As long as you do developers won't give two sh!7s. They'll always say, "Well they're gunna buy it anyways..."
The 360 version is much crisper and clearer. But the weird thing is that I think the PS3 version looks better BECAUSE its blurrier. Looks less jaggy in those shots.
I'm still waiting on my 360 version to get shipped, so I have yet to see either version in person.
I am playing on a Sony Bravia through HDMI and this game doesn't look anything like the screens in the comparison. The game looks a lot better than what they are showing here. As for the 360 version, I couldn't tell you because I haven't seen it, but what I can say for sure with the utmost certainty is that these PS3 version screens have either been doctored or taken from a crappy tv with standard hookups....definitely not what I am seeing when I play it.
I'm gone for a couple of days (playing Red Dead with every free minute that I've got) and N4G turns into a complete war zone. F*** me!
There are several articles covering this crap and it really doesn't matter. I was able to do a side by side comparison. Yes, the 360 version does look better imo. However both versions look and run fine.
All this has proved is that those pointing fingers saying Sony fanboys are whats wrong with N4G are only half right. Bunch a fankids jumping up and down over what? Meanwhile in the real world none of this pathetic BS matters.
I actually like the PS3 version because of the softer image. It looks somewhat more movie-like than the Xbox 360 version, which stands out a little harsher almost PC-like with jaggies.
It does make me wonder... if the Xbox 360 version was running at the same SUB-HD resolution they could have easily render the game with 4x AA and give it a butter smooth frame-rate!
Higher resolution isn't always the icing on the cake. It should always be about how the game draws you in, in most convincing way it can. Frame drips, screen tearing, aliasing all take away from the overall experience! They pop my bubble and make me often realize I am simply playing a game.
The only time I should be aware that I am playing a game is when I switch off my console!
I am still picking up the Xbox 360 version here... I gotta have my Achievement points!
lol if they lowered the resolution like thato make the 360 framerate even smoother. Ps3 fanboys would say the resolution is lower because" they catered for the lowest common denominator" - seems like they really did this time..
I thought my PS3 copy looks great on my 52" Bravia. But then again my expectations were really low when i put my disk in because of GTA4. Anyway, the textures on this one is a huge upgrade compared how they looked in GTA4. It's not blurry at all. The only thing that was extremely disappointing is how small the map is. I thought it was going to be twice the size of SA but that's not true at all. Maybe they're talking about story and how long it is to finish the main story, but i highly doubt it.
Yeah, it looks really great on the PS3... i did find some glitches when traveling really fast around the steeps near the right side of the map where the broken down ship is and the waterfalls. Some of the random travelers are stuck on the road and you only see the body of the person sticking out and the head of the horse from the ground.
I dont like the multiplayer since they lied about the hunting challenge in which "waves of animals" attack you and your posse. That's BS i've searched all over and found nothing. If im mistaken, please somebody tell me where it is.
i own both systems and i personally prefer ps3 over 360 in general gaming but to say those screen shots look the same would be a lie and you know it, its clear that 360 version looks slightly in some cases much better.
What I miss, though, is the DF article, which points out what and how R* could have improved the PS3 version to match the 360 - in the same way they wrote a 3 page article doing exactly that with FF-XIII for the 360.
Like using BD/HDD streaming, SPU/MLAA, etc.
I don't say it's R* fault. That is an relatively old engine (Rage, AFAIK and the same as GTA IV, based on what they knew in 2005). For sure not optimized for the PS3.
you guys really have no idea what your talking about. Keep reading you super informative internet articles about how superior the 360 version is when I gauruntee that you have no even seen the game run on the PS3. Like I said earlier I have the game for the xbox and my best friend has the game for PS3. We both have the same Toshiba 42" 1080p tv model. There is no discernible difference what so ever. Ive played the game on his PS3 and hes played on my Xbox, They look exactly the same and neither of us can tell the difference. You guys wreak of fanboy ignorance
It isn't, but this is exactly the response I expected.
I can almost guarantee you that if I put up 2 videos of the same version but falsely labeled one as "360 720p" and the other "PS3 subHD," almost everyone would be saying "Wow, there's a HUGE difference! Version __ looks so much better!!!!"
I can't deny I do get a bit of a laugh out of all this. People are clawing each others eyes out over marginal differences. When I buy Crysis 2 on PC later this year, THAT WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE over the other versions. These versions of RDR look very, very similar.
Im getting it for the console where i have the most friends. Cause games like gta4 also never had that whole smog effect for me that you saw in the comparisions its called callebrating your tv makes a world of difference.
'it's a shame they haven't made that much progress on the PS3 since GTA4'
That makes me wonder about Agent. Will it be any better than RDR visually or will they stick with what they've currently been able to get out of the PS3 and focus on the other aspects of the game?
I dunno, but I think there is a high probability that the Screamer was being, what's the word, um...sarcastic. Don't take this so seriously. No one will care sooner rather than later. Just play some games. Lest we forget, this hobby is for fun - right?
Dude, almost all content is NOT defined in the RGB FULL range. You freakin idiots either don't have calibration settings or you have not calibrated your TV's properly. RGB blows colors out of proportion and makes them blend incorrectly for just about all sources. You really just need to calibrate your TV but that isn't going to help this game one bit.
Well, I guess everyone needs to believe that his money was well spent, but... "I prefer PS3 version, cause it looks softer"... C'mon, HD TVs does a better interpolation anyway. Did you see the foliage diferences?? And what about the framerate? I never liked GTA 4 visuals, and now finally I'll enjoy a good game by Rockstar with excellent graphics. On 360, of course.
Ok, I'm a PS3 only owner, but I'll admit it, 360 version looks crisper. It's a shame that rockstar made little to no improvements from GTA4. Kinda makes them look lazy when you see what kind of graphics PS3 can run... Still, ordered it for PS3, can't wait to play!
That's perfectic, you don't not buy a game because of the way it looks, if it was geting like 4-6 in reviews I'd see your point, the games getting 9 or 10s or 5/5, 4/5 ect. So the games obvously very good, so don't be a fool, buy it if you were going to, it's only graphics t the end of the day.
Wow you are sad! You are not buying the game cause of the graphics? Wow really? Who cares about the graphics, It still looks amazing in my eyes. After seeing this comparison I am still getting it for the PS3 I don't care if it doesn't look as good as the 360 version... It's not all about how the game looks you know...
Unfortunately, the developers didn't do a very good job porting it. It definitely looks a little better on the Xbox 360. Barely noticeable unless you're directly comparing them.
However RDR still looks better than most Multiplat games, even some exclusives. So we can forgive them somewhat.
But it's not like they haven't had enough time to fix RAGEs apparent problems. Capcom fixed SFIVs larger discrepancies (load times, sub-HD on closeups) in under a year with SSFIV.
1. News with the minimal extra Content for PS3: "PS3 is the far more superior Version"
2. News with Screenshot Compare that shows difinatly better graphics for 360" "The PS3 still have better Graphics" "I dont see a difference"
Fanboys are sad these days:) If you want a comarision you shoud wait for lensotruth, but anyway if you only own a PS3 or 360 it makes no difference. Play it on your system. You can´t change it, whatever Version will be better.
