Street Fighter IV PS3 is sub-HD in close-up

Street Fighter IV has been getting much praise for its combination of classic gameplay and updated graphics technology, but there are differences between the console versions.

Firstly, you're going to notice more jagged edges in the PlayStation 3 game, since it doesn't feature any anti-aliasing. This is in contrast to the Xbox 360's 2xAA.

This isn't that much of a negative, since the 'jaggies' are barely noticeable when playing in the traditional gameplay view.

However, you might notice the edges in the character close-ups, a view where the PlayStation 3 suffers slightly in another area. During the close-up sequences, generally used with special moves, the PS3 game's rendering resolution drops from 720p to nearer 630p, which is then up-scaled for output.

An odd occurrence that can be best demonstrated through the following game captures. You'll notice that the PlayStation 3 screenshot is slightly blurred, where you'll also see that Ryu's headband features more obvious jagged edges.

screenies and videos are on link, not that it matters to me my ps3 copy has been dispatched, still an interesting reaad though. 

it's no news that PS3 has often a blur effect...

by god you are taking over the site with all these threads lol. erm another thing i have noticed with the ps3 version, well from gt vids is that the inky effect is kinda like missing. Would that be a correct observation or was like something to do with the players not doing hardly any moves

This doesn't matter to me much, even if I had a 360 i would still get the PS3 version as the Dualshock is better for fighters imo.

Dosent matter still getting this game.

So on one end you have a crappy D-pad (360) and on the other hand you've got a few jaggies and resolution drops (PS3).

PS3 version still wins easily.

Like I said in the Star Ocean 4 thread. Not really a big deal at all.

PS3's still the much better pick because of the controller.

i know more people who will be buying sf4 on the ps3 vs the 360, so the purchase was a no brainer. the better joypad doesn't matter since i'd get a joystick for whichever console the game was bought for.

ps3's still okay in my books... and since i won't own the game on more than one console, i'll never notice the difference.

What are you guys supposed to be trying to prove with those shitty comparison threads ?

Seriously, this is worthless, 99.9% of the population would've never noticed the difference.

Just enjoy the game.
