IMO forest, mountain and water sections looked great on both systems, PS3 version looked better to me though.

But especially the urban areas on the 360 looked far too cartoony and the section with soldiers looked remarkably unimpressive to me (I assume they are similar on the PS3 as well..... hope not..., it lacked polish and wow factor), especially when compared to Killzone 2 in terms of animations, light sources, atmosphere, special effects and such.

But but, but this ^ guy thinks that KZ2 looks better already!

Another unbiased opinion....christ! I'm off before I fall asleep hearing the same tosh these guys pedal in every 360 vs PS3 thread...

I'm unbiased the PS3 looks better, yadda yadda...When nearly every time you get made to look silly when the facts of the resolutoon\AA\AF\texture resolution is measured it nearly always points in favour of the 360.

I'm not saying this is, I don't really care and haven't looked.

but even though people are right when they say they still have to put in extra elements like the ai etc into the real deal, this engine is only a prototype an so i suspect that it hasnt been fully optimised to use all of the ps360's power yet. So maybe it will end up looking better...

Whatever credibility you may have had or ever built up, nuked.

 I haven't looked but that "cartoony" look you always talk of with regards to the 360 visuals is actually HDR rendering (High dynamic range). It's something the PS3 is incapable of with AA at the same time. Something that the graphics chip on the 360 excells in.

This is why you have this "cartoony" look. In fact, you may call it a cartoony look to install doubt and confusion in readers. In reality it is an improvement it is used to show objects more brightly, like bright clothes, give a deeper contrast than is possible on the PS3 with AA at the same time.

HDR costs a lot in performance, you could say that "cartoony" look is what the designers of the game intended for it and that the PS3 is unable to carry off the full visual impact of the game unfettered.

...You could say that...I couldn't and would leave such ridiculous marketing talk to PR agencies. Because people aren't stupid and don't need amateur hour brainwashing from you or me.

@ Baggins

Upset? LOL

I didn't say I'm unbiased, I just said it looked better to me.

The issues of porting 360 games over to the PS3 are well understood, but Crytek are competent developers and their gaming engine is already well multi-threaded.

Look at the exclusives if you want to compare the current state of affairs, but all devs will probably agree the PS3 is more powerful and provides well more potential (nomatter how some using legacy PC game engines may complain about differences).

for urban areas killzone 2 its way better,

radec academy and corith crossing god!!!!!1.

but forest OMG IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?!!

 

the soldiers looked like all leather version of snake in camo suit.

Both look great IMO.
