Red Dead Redemption - 360 & PS3 comparison (Bish-approved!)
- Thread starter Mik2121
- Start date
they both look nice, but the 360 almost looks too sharp. The trees and brush have a razor sharp pixel by pixel sharpness to them that to me looks like a video game. The PS3, though slightly blurry, appears more film-like to my eyes despite it having less brush, shadows, and resolution.
It's a shame the PS3's framerate and resolution are lower though. I'd probably agree that the 360 version is technically superior, but would have to say it still comes down to personal preference

Anyway, it's about time we got some decent comparison shots in here. Anyone that played GTA IV on both consoles would have been expecting the same difference in quality.
The PS3 version still looks half decent and it's a step up from the quality in GTA IV that's for sure.

Thanks for the comparison shots man. Good work. But to be honest, I imagined things for the PS3 to be much worse, after reading several posts in this thread and the other one. The softer, more blurred look for the PS3 won't bother me. But from those shots, the game looks very good IMO. Can't wait for Friday to come! 
Those vistas look so awesome. So much atmosphere.

I'm with you. I've watched the videos above your quote over and over and don't see any big difference. I do notice a slight difference in the 360 version having a bit richer color, but that's it.

Friday can't come soon enough! Is there a huge backlash in the OT already? :lol
when you look at MazingerDUDEs two videos side by side.. there really isn´t that big a difference..

Not for me at least.. but just to make sure, I just had my NON-console playing work colleague (he is a PC player, and has been for over 20 years.) take a look and see if he can spot any BIG differences (like MazingerDUDE is saying). He said there was very little difference, he noticed the trees in the back being a bit clearer on the X360, they look a bit more washed out in the PS3 video, but that was it.
So there is differences, but not that big that MazzingerDUDE is trying to make it.. at least not from the videos and pictures he has posted.

Not at all. Everything is cool except for the 360 users having online problems, and everyone having problems getting social club stuff to work because the servers were being hammered (but thats fine now). Other than that, everyones soaking up the atmosphere and going on about how great the game is ( in both SP and MP when working).
Hell the PS3 version still looks pretty damn nice unless you're going over it with a "magnifying glass". There are minute visual differences, but its in no way a mess of a game graphically, thats just going overboard. Framerate is pretty stable too.
Oh and a few complaints about preorder bonuses of course, but thats here and there.

That's a pretty significant difference there ... you'd think that being more favorable towards the PS3 when money hats aren't involved they'd pay more attention to make their games look better on it too. It's a good thing Agent isn't multiplatform as of yet.
Found a HD video of Online Multiplayer on the PS3..

and I still do not see any CRAZY framerate issues or other graphical issues .. all I see is a fun and enjoyable online Western game..

seriously though, yes, the 360 version does look better, but never compare it to bayonetta. Other than it being a a bit washed out, the PS3 is playable, and very enjoyable. But hey, to each his own.

The 360 ver definitely looks sharper while the PS3 is blurry by compression.
I only have the PS3 so *if* I ever want to pick it up I don't really have a choice but if I did (and ignore taking online&friends into consideration) I would definitely go for the 360 version.

Neither Mazinger nor Quaz have a vested interest in either console. They simply present factual information through pixel counting. Average Joe's might not see a major discrepancy between resolution and various effects, in the same way that my girlfriend thinks Luigi's Mansion looks as good as 360/PS3 games. Most people just don't care about 720p vs 640p, which is perfectly fine.Hanmik said:
It's not just Rockstar cranking out comically bad ports. Most devs have been guilty of this, regardless of their level of expertise. Think about the remarkable difference between FFXIII versions. If the rumors about FFvs. are true, then you can almost be guaranteed we'll see another inexplicable 576p port.Hydrgyrus said:

Quick and dirty edit in Paint, I noticed some things missing on PS3 when looking at this shot, I drew an arrow above each area in question.
Arrow references (things missing in PS3 shot on bottom):
1. sign missing
2. logo on building missing
3. shadow missing
4. cant read sign
5. shadow missing behind barrel
6. wagon missing

I would like to buy this game on 360, but my 360 hasn't been reliable as of late. I guess I'll just pick this up when the Slim comes.

Agreed, saw the news story on 1up but thought it was just a click-grab over-reatction.Amir0x said:
Evidently not, eeek.
I really appreciate what he's doing, and it's not just for deciding which version to buy, it's more than that. See Halo Reach for example, bungie is trying hard to improve the image quality over Halo 3 after all the negative reactions, if no one cared back then probably we would get same thing again.Fix The Scientist said:

You serious?
In the big picture, the difference doesn't really matter, I'm sure it doesn't take anything from the overall experience.
However, relative to the purpose of this thread especially for those of us with multiple systems, the difference is rather significant.
Higher res, more detail/foliage/better LOD, better/stable framerate.. It's not exactly a hard choice anymore. I didn't think that after R*'s experience with coding GTAIV for the PS3 the difference between the systems would be even bigger with RDR.
..Or maybe the 360 team just got better at programming the 360 than the PS3 team got better at the PS3?
