PS3 graphics

[Jason Miller]

There was another thread with people saying that the Xbox 360's graphics are better than the PS3's. I personally didn't believe that, but now i'm not so sure. Please, could someone confirm this? Because first they release a demo on the 360, then they say there's downloadable content only on the 360, but now this!:eek: This is driving me nuts! I bought the PS3 specifically for Tomb Raider!:mad2: :mad2:

[Dr.Willard]

The game was specifically designed for the Xbox 360 so it's based upon the 360's hardware and software.

Therefore, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a slight difference in the graphics of both consoles.

Bare in mind that Crystal Dynamics have developed for the Xbox 360 before so I would pretty much assume they have the hang of everything.

There will be no dramatic differences, because there never really is. However, like I said previously, don't be surprised if the Xbox 360 has slightly better graphics. It was the core console after all.

The developing time it would take to develop on both consoles would be huge so this is cutting corners by porting the Xbox 360 onto the PS3.

I have ps3...and i believe in it...anyway i never heard before that tru was made for 360....never...360 is a new console...tomb raider was and stil made specificaly for ps...that`s why the game will be also on ps2..and no for the x-box! I don`t want to fight...but that`s the truth! blu-ray egainst dvd...come on now!!!

[4croftsake]

Physically the PS3 can potentially pull off more than the 360! fact! so don't argue! google it! they just haven't tapped it's full potential yet and developers still use the 360 because it's slightly more easy to programme a game using that console plus it's been out longer so they have had more time with it, yes some games do look better on 360 and some argue other games look better on PS3. I think it comes down to minor niggles like textures and frame rates, that is all the difference you will probably notice and anyone who says no, 360 controls are easier then obviously you don't spend much time with a PS3 controller or you have both but prefer a 360.

Actually CD have stated multiple times that the game has been deved on both platforms to get the best of both worlds, they've never said they were developing it only on one console and from footage we've seen so far the 2 versions of the game look identical.

you are a ******** liar tomb raider underworld was desined for all MAJOR PLATFORMS!!!!! DUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! PS3 IS JUST AS GOOD AS YOUR crummy 360 YOU B*TCH

[lilhanhan]

matty I think Dr.Willard is actually a PS3 gamer; he was trying to say how he thinks that they've focused on developing it on one console so that it takes less time and money to make. :)

There's always a slight deference between a 360's and PS3's quality of graphics, although it's usually unrecognisable until a video comparison for them both are shown on gaming sites such as gametrailers.

So I don't see why you've decided to scream and shout when no one has said anything about the 360 being a better console,etc... ^.^;

Well, when the demo first came out for the PS3 (at a gaming expo) you could clearly see that the Xbox button icons were still in the game, suggesting that the game (or at least the demo) was mainly built for the 360.

He's clearly suggesting that if the game was built for the 360 like the demo was, the graphics would look slightly different (and maybe better) for the console it was built for.

He didn't say that there's going to be a major difference or that the PS3 version is going to be rubbish, so there's no need for swearing.

omg its only a bloody demo obv its not going to be that good.its not built exclusivly for xbox so if you think that ur an idiot.get your facts right!!!!!!

[Treeble]

@lilhanhan, it's no use. ._.

[matty]

@lilhanhan, it's no use. ._.

what r u trying to say i wont budge.if you get your facts right i wouldn't be like this.i thought you were suppost to be fan boys !!!u should know the informaton.!so dont get cheecky

[matty]

i dont wanna fall out with you i like you guys

[Treeble]

I'll get cheeky while fanboys remain cocky, thank you.

[matty]

I'll get cheeky while fanboys remain cocky, thank you.

im not a fan boy im just a person who like tomb raider
plz let us not fall out

[jayjay119]

Guys stop the arguments please it's so not worth it and if a Mod sees it you're likely to get in trouble. Matty & Treeble I understand where your coming from and why your getting heated but you're not listening to one another.

The point Matty is trying to get across is that is has been falsely stated that the whole game has been designed on and for 360, which it hasn't; The game has been designed on both platforms to get the best from both.

However Treeble and Lilhanhan are saying that clearly the original PS3 demo was a port of the 360 one. They are not saying that this reflects the design process of the entire game. The fact that CD ported the demo just shows that they were having trouble with the PS3 version at that time IMHO.

[a big house]

GET OVER IT !!!

[pinpal]

you are a ******** liar tomb raider underworld was desined for all MAJOR PLATFORMS!!!!! DUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! PS3 IS JUST AS GOOD AS YOUR crummy 360 YOU B*TCH

Well that was uncalled for. And actually I have heard that TRU was being made from the ground up on 360. Probally the same thing for the PS3 I dont know. Either way Get over it the game is just 12 days away so dont start this stuff all over. TRU is coming out love it or hate it OK.:)

[Dr.Willard]

Wow, I try and provide some information which I believe Goran said - don't hold me to that - in which he mentioned it was a port and I get hailed with a barrage of insults.

Listen, if you're going to be ungrateful then don't bother replying to my posts. I am a Playstation 3 gamer myself so I am hardly biased in what I said. If what I said was incorrect then fair enough.

I gave you what I heard. Thank you Han for trying to explain this.

Also, apologies to Goran if I misinterpreted his post.

[lilhanhan]

Matty please read the posts carefully before shouting; jayjay119 and the rest get it, we're not saying that the 360 is the best console or anything like that, we're just saying that the 360 version was more ready/prepared.

There's always going to be a difference between the quality on the consoles; it's normally something unnoticeable like it's brighter on one console when compared to the other, so it's nothing to worry about.

Please don't try to make an argument over nothing because it's pointless and frankly, it's quite silly. :)

[natebrooks]

you are a ******** liar tomb raider underworld was desined for all MAJOR PLATFORMS!!!!! DUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! PS3 IS JUST AS GOOD AS YOUR crummy 360 YOU B*TCH

I totally agree that TRU was not designed ground up for the Xbox 360 hardware.

But forget that, your language is totally inappropriate!!!!!****
That type of language is not acceptable here.
Please refrain from it. :)

[Spong]

I think matty's problem is that he thinks Underworld was developed for the 360 when it was merely developed on the 360. As much as it might be a bitter pill to swallow, Underworld has been ported to the PS3, it wasn't developed on it (as is my understanding from Goran's posts just as Dr Willard said).

But why that should annoy anyone I don't know. It's simply an easier, more cost effective way of developing a game. If Crystal had developed the game for the PC, 360, PS3, Wii, PS2 & DS, we'd be waiting for its release until 2010 or something ridiculous like that. The graphical differences between the PS3 & 360 are nigh on impossible to spot. To all intents and purposes, they're identical.

But as Nate said, matty, your language was completely unnecessary ****

[phoenixflames]

I own a PS3 and I have no problem if TR:U was ported to it from the Xbox 360(most games are because the Xbox 360 is made of the same software they develope the game on). Everyone always fighting that one looks better than the other are wasting their time. Both systems are top quality and if the Xbox 360 looks a tad-bit better, I can't tell. I'm just happy to finally be able to play the next-gen TR after waiting months for the darn thing!:D

[jayjay119]

TBH at this point in time 360 can be utilized better by CD as they have had so much time to use and haven't had time to realy explore PS3's power yet. Its true that the majority of the game (round 80%) has been deved on the 360 while the other 20 took advantage of PS3's processing power to do things that maybe they couldn't have done with just 360 alone.

TBH just because the game is for all intents and purposes a port doesn't mean PS3 will have inferior graphics...on the contrary like Splinter cell double agent's PS3 port they may even be better. However its other things like frame rate reductions and omitted ares however CD seem to have used PS3 if at least for a while so that they can avoid this.

[natebrooks]

(as is my understanding from Goran's posts just as Dr Willard said).

I understand Goran may be in charge here, but that doesn't make what he says fact.
Many are familiar with my phrase, No Proof, No Truth.....that applies with anyone, that means Goran as well.

I personally think the Xbox 360 are superior to the Ps3.
And guess what?
There's proof to support my belief. Yah!

I read his posts on this topic as well, and I interpreted it the same way.

Although Nate may disagree, I believe Goran is a pretty reliable source when it comes to Tomb Raider info, so I trust what he says. Besides even if he were wrong, would it really make that big of a difference? Who's gonna know the difference between the graphics unless they have both systems and buy the game for both?

You're just saying that because you're getting a 360 this holiday season:rasp: !! By the way, that trailer does'nt contain any proof!

These are the types of videos that I was on about; the ones which show that the game is brighter on one console when compared to the other. There's no point to them really, because the game looked more or less identical on both of the consoles shown. ^.^;

[lozislove]

Bleh. I don't think it matters much what looks better. The game is still going look awesome on both consoles.

[Dr.Willard]

We take Goran's word because he works at Eidos. I'm sure the administrator of this site knows a bit more than we all do. True though, no proof no truth. But loads of companies do this type of thing, yet we never realise.

As Spong rightfully stated, it would take forever for Crystal to develop from ground up on both consoles. I can't imagine that it would be very cost effective either.

Furthermore, can we not turn this into a console war? There is no fact to prove the Xbox 360 is better than the Playstation 3 as I could very well find an article which contrasts with the source you posted which contrast.

It is a matter of opinion.

[matty]

im sorry for everything you were right.can we just drop it thanks =] plz can we drop it thank you im sorry.thank you for your support and being fair guys

[Dr.Willard]

No problem Matty ;)

[matty]

well you were right about me over reacting but i think tru was for ps3 and 360 and all that.but they will both look exactly the same anyway.maybee ps3 will look better on hd telly but i dont care.both consoles have there flaws. thank you guys love you;) :D :D
we r still buddys ?

[pleomax]

I think 360 is slightly better.

It had a unified shader architecture gpu, which pc's now use but 360 had it first.

It had a 3 core cpu running at 3.2 before pc's had multicore processors.

It also has this embeded ram moudule thing that means it can handle antialiasing with no significant drop in performance. This is why quite often 360 will have 4*aa and ps3 will have 2*aa.

I think alot of the money for the ps3 is the blu-ray player which has nothing to do with games, blu-ray is for films.
