Dr.Tobias Funke Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 That being said, R* generally prefer Sony over xbox. LA Noire started as a PS3 exclusive, according to a highly believable rumor, GTA IV started as a PS3 exclusive(which it probably would have been), RDR started as a PS3 exclusive. Not sure about MP3, but the PS3 is probably the lead console. And now GTA V. Which once again, the PS3 is probably the lead console. Rockstars only loyalty is money. L.A. Noire wasn't a Rockstar Game at first, GTA IV lead platform was the 360, Red Dead was never an exclusive. They've been showing Max Payne off on 360(Giant Bomb article) and GTA V's lead is probably 360. Red Dead and GTA IV werent even 720p on ps3 so I have no idea why you think the lead platform is PS3. I just blue myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LotusRIP Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Just to put things in perspective, the Nintendo 64 is better than any console still today. If that's any indication of how little importance graphics should be... Anyone listening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZombLee Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 You say not to start a console war yet you say a bunch of ignorant and untrue statements. Lower quality? I bet you haven't even played both versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOTMILFDAD Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 People are still having console wars? I didn't realize it was 2006. I've owned both versions of GTA IV and RDR on both 360 and PS3 and I really don't see a difference between the two version because I mainly don't care if a texture is sharper than the other. The story isn't any different, the physics are the same, and the fun is the same - which is what matters in the end. If anyone really sits there and complains about a texture being lower quality, you need to go outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal Moonshine Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 What do you mean less quality? Less than what? How long is a piece of string? GTAIV on PS3 was Rockstar's preference for smooth playback (Dan Houser or somebody once commented on their preference for PS3's rendering and warmer tone compared to Xbox 360). Warmer tone? That's laughable. The PS3 version isn't even rendered in HD. Not a major fan of either console really, just saying. Yes it is. Holding PS3 IV copy now... supports 720p, 1080i, and 1080p. Every tv/monitor I have used in conjunction with my PS3 has displayed IV in 720p or 1080i. The PS3 version is also celebrated for having less aliasing and pop-ins. Oh, but I'm not a major fan of either console really, just saying... Seriously, dude, what's laughable is that you're a c*nt. You're wrong. It's rendered in 640p, and then upscaled to 720p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CryptReaperDorian Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It's a long shot, but GTA V will look much better on the Wii U than the Xbox 360 and PS3 if it's released on that console. Honestly, when it comes to a comparison of the Xbox 360 and PS3 version (considering it's released for both), then both versions will probably look quite similar. The major differences will probably be lighting at the most. Any newer consoles (like the Wii U) or the PC will produce even better graphical quality.

Algonquin Assassin Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 As someone who's owned the PS3 and 360 version of GTA IV here's my thoughts. I honestly didn't notice any significant difference between framerate, textures etc. As for graphics I slightly prefer the 360 version, but even then the differences are so miniscule they're hardly worth mentioning. I'll more than likely buy GTA V for 360 as it's the console I use the most for gaming and the fact most of my friends are 360 players. Keep in mind I have a longer history with Playstation consoles than Xbox. My first was a PS1 back in 1997. So what makes you such an avid 360 user now since you have a deep rooted PS past? More friends using 360? That, but I did get the original Xbox in 2003 so it's not all that new to me. Both are great consoles in their own right.

I disagree with this very hard, Nintendo seems to have stopped caring about graphics, at the Wii was only on par with the PS2/Xbox on graphics The Wii U probably won't be any different, don't get me wrong, it seems like an alright system, but that controller man...

Ash_735 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Oh hello this thread, is this your what, 38th or 39th incarnation? Basically, RAGE is an Xbox 360 engine, Rockstar are too lazy to take advantage of the PS3 unlike EA/UbiSoft/Other Developers because they know they can get away with it. L.A.Noire was a different story, as pointed out, Team Bondi were more PS3 focused, and yes, L.A.Noire uses a MUCH more advanced engine on the PS3 compared to the likes of Grand Theft Auto IV and RDR. The engine was capable of FXAA and MLAA and alt rendering to the SPU/CPU which the PS3 excels at compared to the Xbox 360. Now, will Rockstar take that on board for Max Payne 3 and GTA V? Most likely not, but it would be nice if they did! It's not the PS3's fault Rockstar Games look less on it, it's Rockstars own fault due to how they made RAGE.

And if you think MLAA, CPU/SPU Rendering, etc is "basic" then perhaps you could let Rockstar know that because their PS3 engine is lacking those things.

Jokesminus Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 LA Noire was basically unplayable on the Xbox 360 lol. If every game was developed on the PS3 then ported to the 360 like that, the 360 would be dead. What I was saying is if developers stopped and made them for the PS3 then ported to Xbox it would be easier and PS3 wouldnt get the drop in graphics as a result of doing it the other way round. The xbox would never die there are a lot of XBOX fans but if a lot of developers would stop making for the XBOX then porting it over to PS3 it would stop alot of the issues they get when doing it the other way round.

SSBBW Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Does anyone have a decent comparison video for GTA IV between the PS3 and Xbox 360? RDR wasn't really smooth on PS3, especially when in a town like Armadillo. PC vs X360 vs PS3 Xbox 360 has better lightning effects and a sharper picture. Get a cookie GTA IV on PS3 works on 620p RDR looks amazing on PS3 http://www.lensoftruth.com/head2head-red-dead-redemption/2/ What do you mean less quality? Less than what?

Doland J. Trump Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 You have the example of Red Dead Redemption, Mafia II.... they were horrible on the PS3 version controls? Mafia II was rubbish on PS3 just a dodgy port (Look M2 ps3 v 360 on youtube you'll se what i mean). But back on topic PS3 and 360 basically have the same graphics except PS3 has blu ray instead of normal DVD. Having both consoles there is hardly any difference with games unless they're like mafia II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean5 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Than the Xbox 360? Very likely. PS3 has a weaker GPU than the Xbox. It might have better sound quality though, due to the extra storage space on blu-rays. Anyway, the differences are only marginal. If you want the best graphics, you should get a decent computer running it. Yeah, but PS3's CPU is so powerful that its finding cures for cancers and various other diseases, Google [email protected] and lets see who's winning when all games made are 15gb+ and xbox boys will be changing discs every 5-10 minutes Edited January 16, 2012 by Sean5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludzidocelowych Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I have a gut feeling that the PS3 version is being worked on first, after all, if they do the same thing they did with IV, with the 360 taking lead, it will be another disappointment, Rockstar wanted IV's map to be much bigger than it was, but the 360 just couldn't handle it, then again, most games that are developed for the PS3 first are just too powerful for the 360 to handle Not trolling, stating facts.

kailomonkey Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I'm not sure about "easier" to develop on PS3 first, but it might be better in terms of using each console to its own full potential. HD-DVD and Blu-Ray have plenty of space, so they don't have to use every last bit of Blu-Ray space. Especially since there is DLC these days. The disc space is not very high on the list of ways PS3 could be used to better advantage. So yea, it would make sense to build the game for PS3 so that the PS3 is used to its full potential, then port to XBOX360 and use this console also to its full potential. But then again I had no problem with RDR on PS3, GTAIV could have been better. I expect it is more complicated than how I've put it though. I would really like to see GTAV excel and be an absolutely amazing game, on both consoles, and in regard of each console's capabilities. That's my wish.

Slamman Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I, like some others here, played all past GTAs on PS2 and got a PS3 to play GTA IV, mine had more of a Problem then just textures and fill in, the game froze my whole damn system up, I wound up pawning it and getting an XBOX360, I still have a PS3 now, but the demos I downloaded won't initialize any more, some of which I've yet to play, so I am not too pleased with Sony, but Rockstar can't be blamed for their work on Sony more or less, since it was claimed long ago they were working on GTA IV on the PS3 development kit... BEFORE the E3 coming to Xbox announcement, I provided proof I uploaded from my personal magazine collection, and when Sony talked with developers at E3 about the system, non other then Sam Houser was on camera talking about making games on it, AGENT taking so long seems to prove there have been some hurdles, even the ballyhooed delay of several months to release GTA IV speaks as testament, they won't forsake the PS3, just take time to get the PC and PS3 bugs squared away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
