LOL @ all the comments of the PS3 looking better.. Sometimes I wonder what it is people look at.

Ok I'll back up my claims. First of all, most of those pictures are not like for like. Therefore it's kind of hard to make a good comparison. However, there are some evident things that can be seen regardless.. Let's start with this one:

http://www.videogameszone.de/m,browser_fullscreen/?pic_mode=fullscreen&pic=/screenshots/original/2010/02/BioShock_2_Vergleich_PS3_vs_Xbox_360_Screenshots_01.jpg&name=BioShock%202:%20Grafik-Vergleich%20zwischen%20PlayStation-3-%20und%20Xbox-360-Version

Look at the reflection in the water. The PS3 version is clearly lower res. Now look above the reflection to the circular thing the plants are in. Look at the edges. What do you see? PS3, no AA, X360 2xAA.

How about this one:

http://www.videogameszone.de/m,browser_fullscreen/?pic_mode=fullscreen&pic=/screenshots/original/2010/02/BioShock_2_Vergleich_PS3_vs_Xbox_360_Screenshots_05.jpg&name=BioShock%202:%20Grafik-Vergleich%20zwischen%20PlayStation-3-%20und%20Xbox-360-Version

Look at the lightning effects. Again, PS3 version is clearly lower res.

And this:

http://www.videogameszone.de/m,browser_fullscreen/?pic_mode=fullscreen&pic=/screenshots/original/2010/02/BioShock_2_Vergleich_PS3_vs_Xbox_360_Screenshots_09.jpg&name=BioShock%202:%20Grafik-Vergleich%20zwischen%20PlayStation-3-%20und%20Xbox-360-Version

The stairs are clearly sharper on the X360, though the position is too different to make a good comparison, that's the most evident in that pic.

Truth does not fear investigation

The PS3 version does look a lot better here, but the 360 pictures don't look..."right". They all just seem to be blurred, which sounds like bad screen caps or some deliberate bias (by the website, not the devs).

That could happen. I remember some dude with a username "Blig Merk" on Usenet who posted a clear PS3 picture of Assasin's Creed and also a blurry one of another PS3 one and claimed it was an XBox 360 image. Partisan hacks are some of the worst individuals who on the planet, and for an industry.

In regards to the photos, maybe I need to look again, but I didn't see anything majorly different.

The website won't let me post the pics but you can go to the website here. Compared to most other multiplat games the PS3 is usually the worst, but in Bioshock 2 the PS3 is far superior in graphics compared to the X360, according to these screens.

Edit: I can't upload the images now to the OP I have to go, if someone can do it before me it'd be nice.

you must be really bored or something right now.

I dunno why you're arguing over which version is best. You're ALL wrong anyway, the Wii version is by far the best, the texture quality and the lighting is incredible! (plus I heard Mario is an unlockable playable character in it)

Is Mario a Splicer or a Big Daddy?

Is Gilgamesh from Germany also? Why the heck someone brings up a site that isn't in English, when they speak English natively, is a sign the person is a fanboy.
