Most of the PS3 games look better IMO (AC2, Batman AA, Dragons Age, RE5). Most of those 360 games looks like dull and grayed while the PS3 is more vibrant.

Actual graphics there's hardly any different they both look amazing but if the in-thing is to be more gray then i guess the 360 wins.


The reason the PS3 shots have a greater contrast range is simply because of the expanded colour range setting for HDMI being turned on. The Xbox 360 has the exact same option - only better as it has 3 settings instead of just "onoff". The Xbox 360 has standardintermediateexpanded.

 

The trouble here is that although you get a "juicer" picture with the PS3 set to on as the screenshots show, you're actually losing detail. Just look at Batman's cape for evidence of this, it is virtually just a black texture on the PS3 with the HDMI expanded colour option on.

 

Wheras if Gamespot set the HDMI colour range to "intermediate" on the Xbox 360 they could have achieved a happy medium.

 

...So there! ;)

lol well they shouldve then.  I wouldnt care much for texture anyways, especially on Batman's cape, cause you'll be moving most of the time anyways to notice these things.  But color wise is more obvious cause you can see the screen as a whole.  I'd be sure to play a 360 on intermediate setting then next time.  Thanks for the info =)

So the ps3 did have more vibrant colors, there u go then just turn on the RBG and super white....also isn't Batman's cape black to begin with LOL.

They are all the same, you won't notice any difference unless you stick your nose on the TV screen. Why do you think some screens have a 300% zoom?

i dont really see whats the point of comparing a multiplat game.
if u look at the best looking games on xbox360 and the best looking games on ps3, PS3 is a clear winner. best looking games ever

I never trust the screenshots, especially since I don't know what their settings are at...It's like seeing TVs in the store and grabbing the one that has the best picture given their settings...



Just waiting for that PS Vita to come out so I can play some full featured games on the go with that beautiful screen and control scheme...

Well for people that own both systems the multiplat comparison is nice to have.  Even with the difference being marginal its funny how people get all butt hurt that the 360 has more better looking games then the PS3.  There are a lot more multiplat games out there then exclusives.

even in the same PC with very similar performance GPUs the games look a little different between the nvidia and ati card... it is nearly impossible games to look exactly the same using different hardware...

IMO the games dont seem better or worse in 90% of the times... just a little different...
