Most 3DS games look worse than your average PSP game if you ask me. The only one I feel actually demonstrates the supposed power is Resident Evil: Revelations.


Do you even own a 3DS?  I own a 3DS, and I have 12 games for the 3DS.  I really disagree with you completely on that statement.


Yeah, I own a 3DS and PSP. The majority of 3DS games (pretty much excluding 1st party, Capcom, and a few others) seem to suffer from blurry textures and slowdown a lot. I also question if it's as powerful as the last gen consoles since PS2 ports (Tales of the Abyss, Metal Gear Solid 3D) have to cut visual details and still chug a bit.


I'm just going to jump in here because this is the first post I've seen after skipping to the last page.  Now, the PSP was a beast.  I've got like 25 PSP games running on my VIta (and I have a couple of PSP's, too) and some games look like they belong on the Vita.  But, like you, I have a 3DS and a lot of games.  The only game I've seen slowdown was certain parts of MGS3.  But, with MGS Peacewalker running upscaled on my Vita, it's OBVIOUS that MGS 3 on 3DS looks better and does more things than Peacewalker.  And that's with Peacewalker being designed specifically for the 3DS and MGS3 just being a port on.....

 

FUCK.  Just saw DieAppleDie's post.  That's what I get for just jumping into the thread.

*edit* "Peace Walker looked better in many ways than MGS3D and didn't suffer from the same kind of slowdown."  --I couldn't disagree with you more.  When it comes to the size of the environments, jaggies, the number of polygons in characters and enemies (with a couple of exceptions when it comes to the female characters like Paz and Huey), the things you can do in MGS3 like swim underwater, the cutscenes, etc., I think Peacewalker and it's tiny areas can't compete with MGS3.  It just seems like a scaled down version of one of the PS2's best looking games (w/ God of War 2 being the best imho).  MGS3 is a port that delivers pretty much everything the PS2 game has with a few additions (that don't really have anything to do with performance).
