o...i stand corrected. So than the Ps3 can really only make a game’s grapics like %20-%30 better than Lair’s.

That power does not only proceed for graphics though. So don’t expect Mass Effect or Alan Wake graphics ever on the ps3.

But using API programming, devs can work around this issue and still make truly beautiful games. But it sacrifices the ps3’s raw power.

You can get more from less, but will any devs actually go through the trouble? Prob not.

thats why more ps3 games are starting to look better on the ps3 than the 360, for example oblvian, and tony hawks skating (latest one)

also games like heavenly sword have the best graphics around with its incredible animation and attention to detail on the face which actually beats that of gears of war.
also the game has over 1000 enemies on the screen in one stage of the game which is very impressive.

also games like gran turismo look way better than forza and it also plays in 1080 p at 60 fps!

Heavenly sword defiantly DOESN’T have the best graphics around. it looks about equivalent of dead rising.

And the next forza borders photo realism.

Having played fight night round 3 on both the 360 and ps3, I can safely say that the ps3 version was more graphically adept at showing realism and textures , sweat runs, swelling, blood and all that jazz over the 360. Now whether this is due to longer development time or just greater grunt under the hood I can’t say, however, PS3 was better graphically then the 360 and I hold no allegiance to either console. I am still tossing up between the two.

Don’t know about Forza, but GTHD looks pretty freakin snazzy!

Actually, the ps3 version of Oblivion is worse, i finally played both versions and the people look worse, the loading is the same if not longer. The only good thing it the textures in the distance, but they still have to re-load every so often. Stuttering, etc.

And new tony hawk game? You mean Skate? The 360 version got a higher rating because of it’s graphics, and i quote “There was little difference between the PS3 and 360 version of Skate. However, the PS3 version suffered from frame rate issues.".



Dead Rising can have hundreds to a thousand zombies on screen at once with full on individual AI.







I’m not up to date on racers, so i’ll leave this part be.

All the reviews concur: Xbox 360 multiplatform games score better in graphics 10 to 1 over PS3’s. The very few PS3 mutiplatform games that scored better in the graphics department have had up to an extra year of development time and that is in fact the ONLY reason. What could you do in a years time to improve on a project, 8 hours a day? Quite a fucking bit I’m sure.

Now that’s just multiplatform games, but what about the best looking game for each system?

Currently nothing on the PS3 has been able to top Gears of War. Nuff said about that.

Now, what about the future?
I’ve come a conclusion that no matter how hard developers try, the Xbox 360 will always have the upper hand on graphics and AI. Whereas I believe the PS3 will have the upper hand on physics and more of it on screen at once. But in the end, I don’t think there will be a significantly noticeable difference from either unless you put 'em both under a microscope and analyze the shit out of them, as we seem to do.
