Definitive graphics comparison RDR- ps3 vs xbox360

The difference is fairly great, ps3 gpu fails with ports:

PS3:

XBOX360:

Ps3 version lacks much of the lighting of the xbox version (most visible in night scenes), and runs at a sub-hd resolution (640p) with no anti-aliasing (just quintox blurring). Xbox360 runs at 720p and features 2x AA. It also obviously has better textures, it has a more consistent framerate, and the pawnage just keeps on piling up.

I have both consoles but I will be getting the xbox360 version. Been waiting for these comparisons in order to gauge the best version. Now we know.

More with same lighting conditions:

PS3:

As you can see Ps3 version suffers from jaggies, less foliage, and blurring in the above and below scenes.

One thing these images don't show,

-"the LOD is a lot more aggressive on PS3, change in geometry and object popin are a lot more noticeable."

-"The overall frame rate is much worse on PS3 too."

-"The game looks a lot worse in motion with all the shimmering artifacts and flickering jaggies. (that is PS3 version of course)"

If you have both consoles, this is a no-brainer. Sure xbox360 online play ain't free, but chances are if you have an xbox you have live membership for all your other games.

The game looks slightly better in all the screens but the first on the Ps3, but I'd rather have a better framerate.

thanks for the info. looks like there is more detail on xbox.

Well, all the videos that I've seen, both version looked identical

To late, got it for PS3, looks better then those pics and plays great.

Let me ask you though... why would you make a thread like this outside of the sticky? What do you have to gain?

wow console graphics are AWFUL

Looks better on the 360 it sems, but not by much.

Hmm...o really? :roll:

Looks like they didn't bother to wrestle with teh Cell. Can't blame them for using the same engine than GTA IV.

Alot of denial of reality in this thread. The ps3 version does not look better to anyone (FACT). It's no longer opinion, I just provided FACT.

And it's a real pity because I only have online on my ps3, my xbox360 isn't even connected to the internet.

funny because RDR doesnt look blurry at all on my ps3 as the pics look in your topic. Infact I am starring at it right now and I can honestly say, who the hell butchers those ps3 screenshots?

They look butchered because they are being compared side to side to the xbox360 version. Also on a 50inch lcd tv you WILL notice.

Besides, RDR looks only decent at best

you are making the game sound 100x worse than the real thing .... seriously if the game suffered too many issues, they would have lower the score to 9, dun you think ???

Thats how framebuffer capture looks like,not like some who post 16xaa 1080p bullshots from console games.Thats the REAL output from your console,but from your couch it probably looks better.

This just in... The ported console always looks worse.

I thought this stuff was already know by now.

The game looks a thousand times better on the PS3 than those 'screens' show.
