Nice win for the PS3 here, but I am playing the 360 version now and yes it has screen tearing during supers, but I can hardly notice it. The game is too FAST!

[Shogun Master]

I saw some tearing too, but its hard to notice. Too bad there's no arcade version to judge it against.

[RudeSole Devil]

Right, What happened to the Arcade port. Never heard anything about it..

[kancerkid]

Did this game lead on the PS3? Just curious.

[FACTUAL evidence]

Ps3 clearly wins.

[just_the_tip]

BTW Xbox 360 looks better IMO.

[RudeSole Devil]

Surprised to see the Xbox 360 version screen tearing that much. Hope Capcom sends out a patch soon.

[RedPawn]

The Lens of Truth, should be if your a fan of the game then pick it up, and if not wait for Mortal Kombat.

Ants explode under direct magnified sunlight.

i got ps3 version having a blast but not as what i expected from the other version of marvel vs capcom games

[Iceballs]

wow didnt expect this outcome xbox looks like its cant handle the speed. to bad maybe next time

[Bigpappy]

Some think is wrong here. How come I don't hear anyone asking for this site to be banded from N4G?

May be I should view the comparison before making accusations.

Comfirmed!

[Joe Bomb]

Yep, if the PS3 wins your A-okay on this site. Kinda funny and sad at the same time.

[despair]

LOT should BURNNNNN!!!! More Like Lens of Lies!!!!!

Does that help :)

[despair]

oh right I forgot sarcasm doesn't work here lol.

[strickers]

No,the world is right.Here you are Bigpappy moaning hypocritically about how people are unfair or fanboys.
I can almost hear the geek sneer in your voice.
I don't see what good "banding" a site will do though,people love to declare a version better because it has one less jaggie or a better texture behind a box in the corner of the room.
The key thing is on 99% of games most people will not notice the differences.

[Masterchef2007]

This site should be banned in the first place because of how they manipulate some of their comparisons. Digitalfoundry is the best comparison site on the net at the moment.

But the truth is that 99% of multiplatform games are almost identical on both platforms. So what wins me over in the end are the exclusives and the controller. And i believe that the playstation brand offers better exclusives than Microsoft plus i enjoy the PS controller more. Its just my opinion no need to get offended by it.

[KaiokenKid]

hmm, I still think MT framework sucks on PS3 for everything else. But maybe capcom fixed it for games from now on?

[kagon01]

What can you expect, the game uses a cheap made graphic engine. We're in 2011!!! and Capcom doesn't use the full graphical potential of the consoles like some western developers LAME!!!

[gypsygib]

What? The graphics are really good, the Japanese can make amazing graphics too, don't act like western devs are the only ones who know how to program. The most popular western games have pretty average graphics (COD, Halo)

[gypsygib]

I don't plan on getting it any time soon b/c I rather play SSF4, but when I do, I'll get the PS3 version simply for the d-pad. Screen tearing is horrible when excessive but in a fighting game, it's probably tolerable if it only occurs during the supers.

And for all the people who say these games can't be played on pads, I'm not spending $150 on a controller unless I plan on making that money back playing the game.

[Masterchef2007]

The PS3 to me is the best cause you really cant play fighting games well with the 360s DPAD.

[gypsygib]

I like the 360 pad better in every way except for it's d-pad, which is completely inaccurate.

[Killzoned]

Both looks the same to me but the 360 version looks washed out in terms of the colors

[Tempjf]

Xbxo has screen tearing!! What a bummer!
