PS3 vs 360 93 22.30%
 
Total:416

@sentient -- i haven't noticed any huge differences between the games on both platform. FOr some , i don't see any difference. Can't say for Mgs GZ as i don't own the game , but for the rest which CGI has posted, the difference is minimal apart from resolution. Even when DF mentions the " difference " i never see it therfore it must be minimal. For example teh difference in SSAO, AO, shadow difference. These difference are hard to spot out unless you nearly try to find it. and at times those differences as well is small . That was different from xbox 360 and ps3. i ahd those two machiens and tehre wer egmes on ps3 that stood out liek a sore thumb as graphically bad.

It is way more... it is not even comparable.

XB1 x PS2 (the original) is more comparable with PS4 x XB1 (the actual) in terms of graphics difference.

You need to check you eyes... it is not a trolling or joke... it is really a friend advice.

I noticed you can't even see blur in pictures.



@CGI Quality. i did with eveil within and i couldn't see apart from the motion blur and teh other one with Sniper elite, it looked the same except for the screen tearing which is a no biggie fo rme. thats small. MGs GZ i aagree thast a big difference. no question about it



@ethomaz -- i have. i have been told and 20/20 vision lol. Not kidding as well

@cgiquality -- the fifa15 is like for like and both are 1080p. The only difference is shadow of mordor , is sligh tmore foliage . df doesn't say how much more and high qulaity shadows instead of medium. Those are small differences. Nothing compared to Bayonetta, skyrim, RDR and mafia. For sniper elite it seems to be just the frame rate and lower anisotropic filtering which can be patched. Small differences for that. For watch dogs it seems to be just the 108p difference in resolution and a slight fps advantage For black flag, its just a small resolution difference. The xbox one upscaler eefetc was removed with the update so that does not count. apart from that slightly better AA. again its small. For need of speed it only has higher-grade ambient occlusion and depth of field, which again is small. The ony sort of big differences is MGS4 GZ with the resolution difference 1080p vs 720p. Apart from that nothing major especially that cloud effect (forgot what it was ) is not really major.

No matter the spin applied, the titles I mentioned have some of the exact same features missing from previous generation games, while in most cases, being 25-50% different in resolution. That's not small. Besides, DF's words, alone, back up that sentiment.

that feel when people think more advanced ambient occlusion,  DOF,  AA and resolution are a smaller difference to 2d foliage textures.

dane007 can't diferenciated sharper x blur.

And I'm staring to believe he is not trolling.



Couldn't see much of a difference then. Can't see much of a difference, now. I'm from the generation where games had huge differences depending on which console they were on! NES games couldn't handle two players, Genesis games were missing whole characters, N64 games didn't have cinematics, GameCube games were missing entire levels or music tracks.

This gen, we compare games and say one version sticks because it has everything the other has but this blade of grass is missing. You guys make me sick!

*vomits on keyboard*

That vomit was due to some freaky porn I was watching and not this thread. I could see how you would get confused.



Well yeah some 3rd party developers weren't comfortable with the complicated Cell architecture of the ps3, or just didn't want to bother when the 360 sold as well as it did. It was basically only sony's 1st party who made good use of it and poured out the best graphics last gen.

This gen is different though, the X1 doesn't have a complicated architecture and it's the ps4 that's outselling the Xbox by a mile. My guess is that we will see a lot bigger gap when the more demanding games start to come out that won't be able to hit 1080p on the ps4 and will run at 900p and a locked 30fps. Especially if the ps4 keep outselling the X1 at a 2:1 ratio.
