However, the question remains: if you have access to both an Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, which version of the game is the one to buy? Historically, the series' tech has favoured the Microsoft console, but the gap narrowed significantly with the advent of ACII, and right from the very beginning of Brotherhood, it's clear that Ubisoft Montreal has made a number of further refinements to the Anvil engine.
"Back in the innocent days of 2010, A World of Keflings was a fairly popular successor to A Kingdom for Keflings. I even wrote about it a few times in 2012! But the world of humans moved on, and NinjaBee's city-building/adventure game was last seen on the ill-fated Wii U in 2014. Fast-forward to the dark year of 2025, and not only is A World of Keflings coming to Steam, but there's already a playable demo! Perhaps the cheerful, no pressure gameplay that the Keflings bring is just what we need nowadays," says Co-Optimus.
It's been officially over 2,500 days since The Elder Scrolls 6 was revealed, and fans are still waiting for more than a logo and a mountain range.
It will come out in another 1000-2000 days or so. I’d rather they remake Morrowind. After they added quest arrows, sprint button, making stats lesser and the big nerfs to spells Elder Scrolls has been too simplified. They could change that with ES6 but I don’t have much faith in modern Bethesda. I would love to be wrong
Xbox Game Studios' Halo: Combat Evolved Remake is reportedly planned to release in late 2026 to celebrate 25 years of Xbox.
No official update on anything?
They replaced studio leadership
They changed the studio name
They announced the change to UE5
... all while supporting Infinite
The support to Infinite isn't what it originally should have been but they've still been providing tons of official updates over the years, and as recently as two months ago added a brand new weapon.
I think remaking Halo Combat Evolved, and going to 2 and 3 again, will help give the studio an idea of how to make a Halo game feel like Halo again
Infinite did feel like Halo, that's not what the complaints were...
The complaints were almost literally everything else. Monetization, netcode and desync, the campaign structure, story, and single biome, the weaker-than-expected post-launch content.
Dev times in modern days 4 years of silence isn't unheard of when things are running smoothly.
And around 6 months ago 343 did show a tech demo of ue5 using halo assets so it's not radio silence.
Given all the shake ups i am more surprised we're getting anything next year at all.
They coulda started with Halo 3 remake ... I know Halo CE remaster was not proper with the art style but still, remaking after a remaster seems dull, when Halo 3 and Reach have started to show some age.
Yeah I hate they used Halo reach artstyle. Hope this remake feel authentic yet fresh
Probably the simplest to work around with. They are reportedly doing it in UE5, so its just as much an Anniversary thing, as its probably the studio getting familiar and setting up their tools and processes in the engine with an actual game, to facilitate the development of the next Halo
I'm guessing combat evolved has a smaller scope in general the later half of the game features a ton of backtracking and reused assets making it a easier game to remake on a deadline
Its also a better choice if this is the first game to be multiplatform mind you I think it's pretty much a given that anyone with a passing curiosity has played this by now in some way be it pc or brought a used console for a few bucks
I would love to see Lost Odyssey come over to PS5. I would definitely buy that again. That was the first game that I played on my 360. Loved the story and battle system. One of the best JRPGs of all time in my opinion.
basically visually its a like for like and it comes down to performance where the 360 barely edges it out. LOT comparison is trash, they made the visual disparity seem huge.
"If friends lists are not an issue, the Xbox 360 version edges it with its more refined performance, but content completists may wish to opt for the PS3 version for the additional missions. It's a tough choice to make but rest assured, both releases are well worth your time and money... "
"We also see a difference in terms of the gamma level, which used to be a regular occurrence in the Face-Off comparisons but isn't so much of an issue these days. There is some evidence that suggests that this may actually be a hardware issue within the 360. One very prominent developer talked to us recently about how component and HDMI colour levels from the Microsoft console don't seem to match. This is something we plan to investigate in the near-future by dumping the 360's video RAM directly and comparing to a lossless stream from the HDMI port. Hardly a big deal but the findings could be useful in calibrating your display."
Multi-platform titles usually always perform better on the Xbox 360, No surprise here..
There are times where the PS3 version of a multi-platform title is more superior.. but that happens rarely.
Having said that, There's nothing wrong with either version of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, You are able to play the game with no problems. There's just slight minor differences that you most likely won't notice unless of course you have both versions running side-by-side.
360 is the obvious choice
I find it weird that the game is only 7.4 GB on the PS3 and still has a mandatory install of 4.1 GB.
For this comparison AC: Brotherhood is pretty much the same as AC2 in the engine department with a few enhancements. This end quote pretty much sums it up:
"If friends lists are not an issue, the Xbox 360 version edges it with its more refined performance, but content completists may wish to opt for the PS3 version for the additional missions. It's a tough choice to make but rest assured, both releases are well worth your time and money"
I would take more content over slightly better performance any day.
Hey Digital Flopperer ! Why not use HDMI on the PS3 and
See what happens ! Oh I forgot , the 360 is old tech that runs better with Componet and the PS3 was designed with HDMI so you dumb down the comparison for the less technology
Console , what ever I'm loving ACBH on PS3 and Remember Ubi soft said at E3 that ACBH , Future Soilder and Driver are all leading on PS3 so both versions are equal ! So MS mandates DF to use componet cables over HDMI ! why ? We know why MS ! We know why . This gen is full of lies , backyard deals and Moneys "Piff"
I can just it now ! Mattricks and Greedburg 69ing while Kotick
Watchs with a Cigar in hand and well you know what's in his other Hand LMFAO!!!!
