I dunno if it's just me but they look very similar to me. Good to see that 2K had done a very good job of the PS3 version, making it not look inferior.

this one was of the clearest.

textures are fairly compressed on the 360
text below adonis (luxury resort) almost unreadable, wont break the game.

but certainly noticeable, maybe get fixed if you get closeby, and its some way to deal with 10mb cap.

antialiasing its x2 in both games, so aside textures being sharper of the ps3, and 360 pumped up contrast wont see much difference

Both consoles have different strengths and weaknesses so it's only logical that the PS3 does some things better and the X360 does some things better. And btw, I don't see the 2xAA in the PS3 version in that pic. Compare the edges of that circular thing where the Adonis sign is, just above the water reflection. Water reflection is higher res on the X360, far away textures are higher quality on the PS3 though, implying higher texture filtering.. I don't think it's possible to say that one version is clearly better than the other, so overall I agree with you.

Truth does not fear investigation

it looks sketchy in both version, though implementions are different, but certainly both are x2.

there is not a x1.8 AA at much u can say one its using quincux nvidia x2 and the 360 msaa x2 ati

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.

Well, I only looked at 2 or 3 and in all of them the 360 one looked like it had been blurred (as if the camera was moving slightly when taken), so I stopped looking. Maybe the rest are better, but I didn't see the point in comparing pictures that seemed to have been deliberately biased in the PS3's favour (on the ones I'd seen that is).
