tuscaniman said: Why do you guys trust a post by Leo J? In the review it states nothing about the PS3 version looking inferior. It states the PS3 runs worse. It has framerate drops and pauses. Nothing in the review states it is worse. Leo stop trying to make it seem like the world is out against the PS3. I've already commented about you doing this in another thread and you created a thread to try to do it again. If you want to read the review yourself here is the link. http://ps3.ign.com/articles/108/1088085p1.html Second paragraph talks about the 360 and PS3 versions. P.S. The game got a 6 on the 360 and a 5.5 on the PS3. Why are we even wasting time on this game that obviously is not good. |
In what sense are framerate drops NOT a graphics issue? The only two aspect of graphics that I care about are having a solid framerate and decent draw distance

Leo created this thread to make it seem IGN was bias towards the 360 and that they state that asthetically the PS3 graphics are worse than the 360 when they mention nothing about that. They mention framerate. Framerate is a performance issue, not a graphical issue in the sene that Leo tried to make it sound.

Framerate is considered a part of graphics by all reviewers I can think of. IGN certainly consider framerate to be a graphics issue, as do our own VGChartz reviews. Graphics encompasses the following things
Artistic merit - in which Little King's Story does well
Technical merit - things like resolution, explosion effects and the like come under here - GT5 and Metal Gear Solid 4 are good examples of this
Performance issues - Framerate, jaggies, poor draw distance
Failure in any one of these warrants a decreased score in the graphics section. You of course can consider framerate to not be a graphics issue, but then you will have misunderstandings when reading reviews, as you have misunderstood IGN and Leo-j in this thread. I don't know if you've noticed, but this is probably the first time I have ever stuck up for Leo-j :P I'm not defending his point in order to try to help him troll a console. I am defending him because what he is saying agrees with conventional definitions

however the fact being, if I recall most reviewers Gamespy, Here, IGN, Gamespot, Games Radar... for FFXIII those reviewers said even though it was 576P on xbox it did not detract from the gameplay and recieved an equal score... etc, whereas this does because framerate detracts from gameplay in a lot of people's opinion, the score the score was dropped in this case.
I'm not saying it's correct, but a lot of revieweres did it, atleast the ones that I go to. Also Bayonetta had the problem as this apparently does and was rated the same way. However, like you said graphics should be reflective of both performance, technical and artistic. But, a lot of review sites tend to not follow that rule... which is a problem with their reviewers.

Dunno what sites your referring to but if you take Meta, then almost all the sites give both versions the same score, the only reason meta for this crap of a game is higher on the box is cuz of official xbox mags keep giving it good scores, nothing else
Heck even IGN Uk gave the same score
This is usual IGN BS, the biase they have against PS3 and Wii are just so apparent now it's not even funny....honestly all their journal articles of late sound like someone lost their period or something bla bla bla whine whine bla bla no wonder most of the staff is leaving
