For those who couldn't see the difference, I cropped a part of Norml's pics that have pretty obvious differences.

Da fuck?

The PS3 version was handled by a relatively unknown dev.... you mean to tell me they did a better job than Crystal Dynamics at their own damn game?

Not enough lulz in the entire world. Tell this Nixxes to get cracking on their next PS3 project. They got skills.

And patch Underworld for trophies, yo.

There was someone in the Underworld thread that said he'd be buying the PS3 version over the 360 version when I mentioned it was being developed by Nixxes. They were the ones that developed the Xbox version of Legend and had it running at 60fps.

Well I thought that art and textures and whatever else needs more space going to HD. Are you saying we should be still using CD's?

They do, but in the case of TBU, the port wasn't done in house. The other company was given art assets and asked to port the game the best they could.

What they did was port the game in a short amount of time, but without the per object motion blur. CD is now supporting the 360 version while generally ignoring the PS3's.

The 360 will get exclusive DLC. Seeing that even the sales of the PS3 version are higher they made the wrong decision, as I read from a developer that there were no money deals involved. But who knows what the truth is.

Just first week. 360 version vastly outsold PS3 version after that.

W00t! This should put the texture argument to rest for once and for all!!!

360's resolution was reduced to easily fit into edram and gain free AA. It has a more stable framerate and motion blur that the PS3 version does not have. There is different lighting in the very first intro scene but it is pretty much exactly the same after that.

A developer here contradicts you on the motion blur, saying that it's only the PC version that doesn't have it.

Is that what this is about? How come PS3 fans are so arrogant? These comparisons are always stupid, anyway.

Does no one notice that the title says Tomb Raider Underground instead of Underworld?
yep. i did right after i posted, but i edited too late, so it doesn't show in the topic, but it shows in the title of the OP.

Wow. 0-2. Flawless victory for thread title.

Which one has a more stable framerate?

The obvious next step - right?

Nah we are skipping all that BS. Now its all about sales. Who cares about graphical differences its sales that make the superior version

The resolution is TOO high and hurt my eyes. Winner - 360.

so the ps3 edition runs at full 720p but seems to lack HDR lighting and the 360 version runs at 576p but HAS HDR lighting. What'd be more interesting is which one has a more stable framerate ?

Lack of trophies and controller differences will be the deciding factor. None of your high falutin' "resomalution" or "tecshture" whatevers will even factor into the equation.

Isn't that the mantra for GTA IV PS3 superiority? I'm so confused by this thread....

No, its kinda what they said regarding Burnout Ps iffy AA or was it shimmering, IIRC.

GTAIV has superior shadows, not res.

Wow, didn't someone say the developers working on the PS3 version were pretty handy with ports?

Also, the PS3 RAW POWER POTENTIAL is finally showing! =O

the GTAIV being better on PS3 came from stupid game critics saying it had a 'softer' look. 360 version of GTAIV looks noticably better than the PS3 version because by 'softer' they meant blurry. Granted, both versions of the game weren't really too great visually, and it seems like the PC verison isn't either.

Both versions weren't that good looking, the Ps3 had the advantage of no pop in.

Wow. What's the deal with the lighting in the PS3 shot? It looks like they turned off the Sun.

That's cause of the interior shadows of the boat, whereas the 360 has none

Wait, I just checked the site... and these aren't photoshopped >_>

So you're telling me that overbloomed screen is more realistic?

No, not at all. I'm saying that the PS3 shot totally lacks illumination in the scene.

The "realism" spin is only by yourself.

Cos it is inside the shadow of a roof. See the video. You will see some lights from windows.
