PS3 vs 360 graphics comparison

Gamespot put together a graphics comparison here. Pretty interesting.

Xbox 360 Versus PlayStation 3 Graphics Comparison - Features at GameSpot

All Lies!, the 360 graphics don't look like that! when i play 360 i don't see what there trying to show on that article, because i see way better lighting and stuff...

Hacked images, all i got to say...

My post for today.

YES! THE PS3 JUST CAME OUT!
the 360 hasn't been out for a year or anything.

People, STFU.
You can't really compare the systems, and I could care-less with what you have to say over it.
Sure, maybe the game designers have had a PS3 for awhile, but the PS3 takes hold of new technologies not too many are familiar with.
Give the ****ing thing time, and then we'll see which is better.
The 360 may turn out the winner, maybe the Wii....just, give it a year.
The PS3 came out yesterday, I DEMAND GRAPHICS THAT ARE SUPERIORIROIWERU#!@O$.

I realize nobody was really saying anything, but I'm just tired of the comparisons, when the PS3 has literally just came out....I mean, I don't think a "New" game has even come out for it yet.
Wait till Socom makes a game, and takes full advantage of that 25GB on the disc. They could put like, 200 maps in the game, and like, 4000000 weapons. (if they kept the graphics the same, and just focused on enjoyment of the game.)(numbers may be exaggerated.)
If they released a Socom for the 360, it'd be....about the same. (the whole DVD thing, you know, and Blu-Ray disc difference)

If people worried more about correcting their own grammatical errors, and less time worrying about "what graphics are better", public forums like these would be a much better place.

I agree with what Conflicted said 110%... it's WAY too early to be comparing the graphical performance on any of the next gen consoles. I own an Xbox 360, and I am perfectly happy with how my games look when they're played in 1080i on my HDTV. I have no complaints whatsoever.

On the other hand, the PS3 could very well having the better looking games a year from now... but the system was just released a few weeks ago... so that goes right back to the "too early to tell" phase. Sony has the advantage of utilizing the blue ray format (which at this time is brand new technology) but in the long run, this could very well be the next big thing, as far as gaming goes. Same goes for their cell processor... they took a big gamble on using these two new technologies in their PS3.

Will it pay off? Only time will tell.

(And I really don't want to see any flaming going on in this thread... let's all keep it civilized, mmmkay?)

Actually, it's surprising to see just how close a lot of the shots are. It varies from game to game which looks better of the two, which means the blame falls on the developers.

Most noticably, the PS3 screens seem to have lighting and saturation issues, which could be fault of many things besides the console itself.

Give it a year, and then compare screens between the two. I'm guessing they're always going to be very close, or the 360 will end up slightly behind.

The real measure of quality is the enjoyability of the two. Which has the better games, and which has the better user support?

This round goes to XBox, but the fight isn't over.

Conflicted I totally agree with what you are saying man. You basically said everything I wanted to say.

I will also add, the Playstation 3 has the graphics chip to have graphics better than the 360, but you have to think about who makes the games. THE CAME COMPANIES are the people that control how detailed the game is and how crisp the game looks.

EDIT: While it took me the time to come back to the computer, Omega already posted what I said.

True... these were the same differences that I noticed on the comparison screen shots. Other than that, they looked practically identical.

So basically, If I turned my Brighness up 2 Bars on my TV, I'd have PS3 Graphics. LOL

It is way too early, but I did see some noticeable comparions, such as street texture, and shadow images.

For instance...CoD3 on the 360 had a more dark and Gloomy look , which I prefer, while the PS3 was slightly brighter.

Madden 07 if you look shows the Sun setting causing a huge shadow on one side of the field, as you would see in real life.

Basically, it's Tit~For~Tat , But I'm getting a PS3 too , so it's gonna be all Tit

I think that PS3 should have somekind of edge being that the system didn't come out for an entire year after 360 was distributed...

The system technologies are much different, but the true test will be if either system can utilize the sound and graphics capabilities to their undoubted potential in their games...this, of course, will determine which is the best and this will take alot of time...

However, as far as I'm concerned, ever since playing games like gears of war and NFS:Carbon in Hi-Def and 1080i surround sound...I am buying a 360 ASAP...

I also saw this comparison and they looked close yes.But why are they not exactly the same shots/angles.Especially the NFS-Carbon they could have easily done the same exact pic and didnt thats kind of odd.Same with Tony Hawk Project 8.I mean if you are going to do some thing like this why not do it scientifically?Heres what I think, Gamestop sells this stuff and PS3 is in short(or nil) supply.They have plenty of 360's.So whats the best business decision?Release a biased and probably doctored article to boost the Christmas sales.I saw some PS3 shots that looked better but most were too close to call based strictly on the hardware PS3 has it should be superior.A few articles say that developers are having problems using the blu-ray format to its full potential and blah blah.But its too early to say for sure,but I know one thing both systems kick *** and beat the hell out of my Colecovison...lol
