If you look at the foliage in those outdoor PS3 vs PS4 images, it is just crazy how much more detailed the PS4 version is.
Then the textures on those cars, man. PS4 is an obvious pretty big upgrade, as it should be.
Then, the details on the building in the background.
These blew me away!

The PS4 version isn't visually that impressive anyway from what l played.

got me straight laughing like Krusty.
coincidence? I think not. Bungie to be bought by Nintendo confirmed.
Just played some of the beta. I think it looks pretty good for PS3. It's pretty blurry but it's a pretty, colorful game with nice lighting, framerate holds up mostly. The Destiny aesthetic is maintained. If anything the PS4xbone versions are probably held back by these PS360 shenanigans.

Man the framerate is pretty solid on PS3 and besides the blur it looks good so far, gonna have to agree with above

+1 I've been playing on PS3 and it looks impressive for such an old system.
That said, can't wait for launch so I can play on a brand new, white PS4

Last-gen version actually seems more than competent.
There we go.For the sake of comparison:

trust me, i've played the PS4 and PS3 version..
the PS3 version looks atrocious. the resolution is terrible, the textures are pretty much non-existent and the framerate isn't even smooth. the draw distance is something like i've never seen before, objects like enemies, trees and buildings look like mush when only 30 yards away.
the only reason i played the ps3 version was to play with some friends. let's hope they get a ps4 soon..

That's probably the first cross-gen title that makes me think it was forced to somehow still run on PS3 and isn't just the usual higher-res PS4 up-port.

I would be surprised if the PS3 doesn't have the largest community, larger install base pretty much guarantees it.
This is me, playing PS3 beta last night - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyiODaxgVqo&feature=youtu.be
I think it looks quite good on PS3 - one of the best looking games for the console.
Having played alpha on PS4 I can definitely say that the overall experience is quite, quite close.
Of course LOD is worse and the details isn't' that prominent. Also expected hit in resolution. But the scale is the same, framerate is surprisingly stable and it feels like the game belong to the platform (PS3).
I think if there's enough community on PS3 (360), anyone without PS4/One can have full Destiny experience.

Damn that looks good!
One of the best looking FPS on PS3 actually, very impressive and even stands proudly against the PS4 considering the hardware gap, a great accomplishment for PS3 and kind of embarrassment for next gen.
Seems like Destiny is not a good enough reason upgrading the hardware, the differences aren't worth it imo.
Really wish this cross gen period will end, it's really killing the hype for next gen when you see such comparisons.
In motion it looks pretty good TBH. Bungie is just too good.
I'd never give up my PS4 version though, so clean.

Tbh, Destiny's graphics arent really "next gen". I think it has the potential to do better along with 60 fps. Dem last gen console gimp.
Well, given that they have to make the game with last gen in mind, it's pretty damn impressive. However in a few years when the next major release hits it should be current gen only then we can see how much of an improvement we get.

Certainly seems impressive watching those videos of the PS3 versions. I wonder how much Sony have passed on to Bungie in terms of in house knowledge for the coding on the machine. If they have had the collective minds and experience of ND and GG to start their first project then it would explain how they have come up looking so good on what is likely to be their one and only game on the PS3.

Character shadows are pretty rough, along with obvious lower resolution and other stuff, but playing the beta on PS3, I think it holds up well. Obviously, the PS4 is the better version.

Honestly, I like the PS3-version. It runs very smooth and looks ok. The disconnections are stupid, an offline-mode as in Borderlands would be great.

Are you playing as a Minecraft character?
Those two are exactly the same position.
Open areas are where you really see the difference.
These two show a massive difference.

yeah, I have more problems with the game itself rather than the PS3 performance.
#1 chiefly being that I can't map my own buttons of tweak music volume. Being PC master race really makes it hard going back to play a console game, especially a Bungie game with most settings totally fucking locked down.

Well, they're the same game so besides the visuals, they should be comparable lol.
They might as well just add full remapping at this point, we already have a variety of button/stick setups and the option to switch L1/L2 and R1/R2.

I remember some Wii-ports (Dead Rising, Star Wars Force Unleashed, DIRT 2) that also had a different (worse) gameplay.

But it's Bungie and they won't. It's incredibly disappointing.
I've just played some of the PS3 beta, and have to say for a PS3 game it look OK. Character models and weapons models look good but the environmental objects and the scenery are sore for the eyes. PS4 in the screenshots look much better than it. Although i don't have much experience on the console, have been used to mostly playing PC versions of games
Isn't this shadow weird? Like it is projected in the screen, and not in the scenario. Should follow the geometry of the scenario, but its like a flat thing in the air.
I think shadow projection has that effect, when it's viewed from a source point. From the side, it should show as warping along the contours of those surfaces.

A POV shadow of your own body shouldn't look very distorted. If someone standing to the side looks at the shadow, then it should be distorted from their perspective.

Awesome to see Bungie put a remarkable effort into all versions of this. Just got a Beta invite from Sony for both the PS3 and PS4 versions. Don't have a PS4 right now, so am gladly gonna play it on PS3

Clearly the PS4 version is prettier, but you wouldn't kick the PS3 version out of bed if that was all you had.
