I don't know about anyone else but i'm getting fed up with all these '360 vs ps3 graphics' threads that never get resolved.

On one hand lemmings say that the 360 has better looking multiplats and on the other hand cows say the ps3 has better looking exclusives. It could be argued that the ps3 needs more development time which is the reason for the mediocre looking multiplats. However, i think the answer is simple:

Most 360 games graphics > Most ps3 games graphics

We can argue all day over which is the current graphics king - gears 2, mgs4, uncharted etc. But at the end of the day if graphics were the only variable taken into account; if you want a system with all round better graphics in most games get a 360. If you want a system with inferior graphics in most titles but with an exclusive or two that is said to look a little better than what the 360 offers, get a ps3. Personally I don't understand how can poeple say the ps3 is the graphics king when most other games look inferior. It shouldn't matter which system is the hardest to develop for or what pushes the most numbers on paper all we have to look at is the games. In my oppinion there is no evidence that ps3 exlusives such as killzone 2 and uncharted can't be done on the 360 so my vote goes to the 360.

I have both systems and honestly I can't tell much of a difference between them. Both systems have games that look great and some that don't. MGS4, COD4, Gears of War, Deadspace, Ninja Gaiden.... some exclusive to one system or another in this list, but they are all i've seen and played - they look nearly identical. I've read many pick at the shadows or at the individual grains in the terrains' texture... i think thats a little overboard. The only reason i'd choose the xbox over the ps3 is the better online service on the xbox.

I assume your referring to Uncharted, MGS4 and KZ2 (even though its not out yet) . But this is what im saying...the fact that there is a debate over whether these games actually look better than Gears 2 means that the difference is so small it shouldn't matter. So what if an exclusive or two looks better than the 360...if most other games look better on the 360 that should be the main factor.

It will be soon. The end of the 360 is near. As soon as developers unlock the power of the Cell it will be over..........Which has me thinking, how long does it take to fully understand hardware that is almost 3 yrs old? Plus who makes a product that no one can use / program for, yet they boast that its the biggest thing since the printing press.

Yeah, it's kinda weird that PS3 has a lot of untapped power that is hard to achieve. Look how much effort people put into KZ2, how much time, people and money they had to use. Are we going to wait another breakthrough for PS3 in another 3 years? To me, it seems that PS3 will still be untapped by most of the developers when next-gen hits, and by that time, the next X-box will be just much more better than PS3 from a hardware point.

Boiling any technical issue down to such generalities and simplicity level is often a foolish thing to do.

OMG rogelio!!! THANK YOU, u hit the nail on the head. JUST GET BOTH, no need to be cheap and deprive yourself of gears of war 2 or ninja gaiden 2 or mgs4 or kz2, or even crysis and dawn of war 2, i got a 360 pro for $224 at circuit city's going out of business sale....YES JUST GET BOTH, plus get a HIGH END PC which is reasonably priced these days. JUST GET ALL THREE....then for all those who have all three, the question will be which multiplatform version should you buy based on graphics.

Exactly it's your opinion, unless you have dare i say it PROOF then this topic is useless.

it's pretty rare that ps3 multiplats are inferior, you can't say most games 360 > ps3. I also think both have killer looking exclusives, so i guess when a dev brings out a game that just blows the rest of the competetion out of the water, then they are equal and it's still open for debate.

I find that multiplat superiority lemming arguement pathetic, the diferences are always soooooo hard to tell EVEN when looking at both side by side. NOBODY can tell the diference 99% of the time.

Cmon, they are not that expensive, these are awesome games we're talking about. INVEST IN ALL 3 platforms. DONT DEPRIVE urself. Ignore your loved ones and families and buy all 3, you owe to yourself. I used to be strictly ps3, and then i bought a sweet pc, and most recently i bought the 360 Pro at circuit city for only $224. I am happy to be able to play MGS4 one hours, Crysis the next, and Gear 2 the next.
