L.A. Noire Video and Screenshot Comparison [720p/HDMI] (GameBlurb)

GameBlurb writes, "Our Versus feature pits cross platform titles against each other and you the viewer will decide the outcome! It’s PlayStation 3 vs Xbox 360 and the game that’s going to square off is Rockstar/Team Bondi’s L.A. Noire. Which will emerge victorious? Or will the battle end in a wash?"

Glad I got the ps3 version....game looks amazing compared to any other rockstar published game.

They both look close, but the lighting and shadows are better on the PS3. Not a bad comparison, I'd be okay buying either one probably.

[_Q_]

Both looked solid. I'm calling tie as the PS3 is slightly better in lighting/textures but the 360 still had better aliasing. No one should feel rubbed by wither version.

Agreed. The PS3 version has better detail and is able to render darker black colors than the 360 version. It's graphical strength is the best thing the PS3 has going for it right now.

Excellent comparison. There is a surprising amount of difference between the two versions of the game. Texture quality on the xbox looks a lot brighter. I think the ps3 has good detail, but it's a little too dark in comparison. I feel like some of the detail for the PS3 is lost in the the darkness.

I'd love an honest opinion on this from someone's who's tried both. With red dead redemption I had a copy of each and kept the 360 version because it was noticeably sharper, wondering if it's the same with L.A. Noire?...

Ps3 was lead platform. Both are native 720p with 2xMSAA. The reason RDR looked blurrier on ps3 was because it was sub-hd with the blurry Quncunx AA.

If you own both consoles ps3 version is the way to go.

-1 disc

-Exclusive content

-Better Audio

-And better graphics and performance as pointed out in the article.

Thanks for that, PS3 it is then... I'll be pm-ing you if my mates 360 version looks better lol!

[Stakenborg]

I actually like the PS3's darker style, it fits the Noire motif they were going for better. That said, they're graphically very similar; either version is a good buy based on visuals.

full rgb tends to make the picture sometime's a little to dark causing black crush and loss of detail they should have raised the brightness a bit.

Suggestion for ps3 owners is to use rgb set to limited and just lower the brightness it looks perfect with no loss of detail you can even raise the color a notch or two to make the color pop more. This is my new setting I use and you can check the blackness levels to make sure your not to dark with wallpapers that are made to check levels.

[_Q_]

If you know what your doing you can get your HDTV to take better advantage of the extended color gamut(RBG full range). Making the image darker usually promotes improved detail(No decrease),you just have to find a common ground with the contrast and brightness. I speaking more from experience with plasmas but my friend uses my same philosophies on his Samsung LED LCD

I would love to see the person who disagreed explain. But of course this is the main page.

But just my opinion, the PS3 is slightly better looking in areas like the skin, but I believe that most differences can be negated through changing your TV settings if necessary. But I'll go for LA Noire all on 1 disc with built in scratch protection.

[Simco876]

Looks good on both systems. Rockstar did a good job, now where is the new GTA!

[thekillerchrist]

I would say that the PS3 version looks slightly better because of the shadows and if you look at the storefront windows, you can see the wares whereas they're not visible in the 360 version. I'd also say they're equally sharp which is contrary to what another comparison had led me to believe.

[Raider69]

if you have the 360 version and hdd space just install the game it ramp up performance in a noticeable way!Dont forget that H2H is made without hdd install.

[loeb80]

from 4:10.. there're also different skins and animations of people on the street

ps3 win this time

I think the authors of this article missed something..... a bit amateurish at best

All that SSAO is really helping the PS3 version.
