*disclaimer*
- Not wanting to start a war which console is best.
- Don't own fancy equipment which tells me how much AA is applied and where. Just my own eyes and the pause button. No doubt sites like eurogamer.net will do a technical head2head in a few weeks. But i'm not going to wait that long =)
- Too old to be called a (fan) boy. I favor the ps3 since i think it's a better machine. But i own more games for my 360. Like to think i'm fairly unbiased.
- I do know the ps3 demo has a few bits of brightness set while the 360 version hasn't. Adjusted it on the ps3 so it's identical to the 360 version.
Both consoles are hooked up to a 40" (1080p) sony bravia of about one year old with identical hdmi cables.
To begin with the conclusion. Think the game looks great on both consoles.
I have been staring at the screen from about 2" for some time now and i don't see that the ps3 has more 'jaggies' than the 360 version. Ofcourse i know normally the 360 has more AA than the ps3 in most games. So why not here? Maybe it does, i'm not really seeing it tho. (with racedriver GRID you could easily see that when the game was paused. But once in action it just became a high speed blur =)).
On the ps3 there seems to be abit more screen tearing. Esp when low to the ground the 360 version seems to be abit more capable of holding it all together.
The biggest difference i see, esp on the Dover lvl, is that on the ps3 version some grass is really abit too green. Played around with the brightness abit, but it stays abit too artificial. It's not a gamebreaker and maybe it has to do with my television. Asked the expert (colour) advice of my wife and see agrees. Who can argue with that? ;)
This isn't like the Orange box where the ps3 was a shame and the 360 was pretty good. It's also isn't like Burnout Paradise where you would have to gues wich version you where seeing. I do think the 360 demo is slightly better looking, but mainly because of the grass.
Your ideas? (maybe you have better eyes than me =))
