Forums - Gaming Discussion - PS3 Version of MGS: Rising is better than other versions!

TT Makaveli on 10 March 2011

so they show their graphical A game on the PS3 version?...hmm...im excited...

cool to see that they dont dump down the PS3 version in favor for 360 like all the other Multi-Plat Developers...this just shows the good rapport between Sony & Konami or Kojima Productions...

and yeah...this really screams for a Move version...i mean we have got the PS3 Move-Gun...now its time for a Move-Sword !!!

Why is this that much important? Castlevania was better on the PS3 too so its hardly surprising, Konami seems to have a good grasp of the PS3.

Besides MGS4 was an exclusive and a very good one at that (technically).


His statement claims the "power" being "higher" in the PS3, making it the best version so I'm assuming he's talking about graphics. What's puzzling people is that he said "better than the other versions", which would imply more graphically impressive on PS3 than on PC. Now even if the PC version is a complete port of the console version with just the ability to change resolution, the higher resolution would automatically mean it would be more technically impressive.

The way I'm interpreting this statement is as a PR statement. Here's my reasoning for believing so:

When Rising was announced many die hard MGS fans didn't like the idea of it being multiplatform. Beyond this, taking such a departure from the tried and true stealth play rubbed people the wrong way. The devs obviously know that their base of fans resides on the PS3. Making a statement like this to appease any concerns this fanbase may have and also build hype/attention through controversy and "console wars".

It is possible its a translation error. They have used google translate to translate lol.

The funny thing is, I am such a fanboy that if the 360 version was better I would not buy the game. But since the PS3 is the best version; I will almost definitely buy this game... weird.

I think it has to do with the roots of Metal Gear and how I feel like it only belongs on PS3.



̶3̶R̶D̶   2ND! Place has never been so sweet.

I wish they'd just cancel it and give me a proper MGS game.

2012!?

and it will loook better than on PS3 than on a 2012 PC with the latest tech?

no it wont.

I think he's just saying that to appease the fanboys. If anything it'll be in this order PC>PS3>X360. Not saying that X360 will be the worse version, but some graphic whores will obviously pick at the smallest of differences, a plant having 4 leaves instead of 5 would definitely count as a major difference.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.
