Gamespots says the ps3s textures are a bit "blured" when compaired to the 360but i beg to differ

proof http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HvdRfUmoqQ&feature=PlayList&p=48F7C6DD42A904D0&index=16

if you just switch on 2 options you get way clearer textures and better lighting and has been around since firmware 1.6 (pretty much 2 months after it launched) also i don't want to hear

"buuut they both tested at defalt setting s!!!!" because if you had a game like cysis whould you use a run of the mill pc to show it off NO you would see it of on a high end PC

You do realize that changing the RGB settings only changes the colours of the output? (RGB = Red Green Blue). So it doesn't have an effect on textures at all. Besides even if it had an effect on textures, you wouldn't be able to see this on youtube quality videos. Sorry Cloud, no proof here.

Probaby explains why GTA4 was so dark on my friends PS3 when I played it. On my brothers 360 the game was bright and a lot clearer, but it still doesn't explain why GTA4 on the 360 was sharper with less jaggies.

But in alot of the comparisons the texture detail wasn't really different at all, the games just has washed out contrast on the PS3. Setting up the display abit differently is all some the the comparisons would have needed to look the same.

Kotaku posted up an article last night:

Anyone up for an attempt at a 360 v PS3 graphics showdown? I'm out, had my fill of these by around 1994, but if you're curious, read on. GameSpot have attempted to settle which system has the better graphics by comparing a bunch of games, blending some screenshots together into a single image then providing some accompanying notes. One-eyed fanboys will no doubt find a way to convince themselves of their system's superiority, but cooler heads know that if you can pick up any differences - let alone major ones - from the tiny screens they've provided, best case, you're most likely a fibber. Worst case, a liar.

It really does make a difference. I was really surprised at how much better Assassin's Creed looked after changing those settings. Textures look better.

Pretty much all? Don't think so, only a few hdtv are capable of supporting RGB full range and super white. If you can turn it on in the options, it doesn't mean it will be working properly. Yes it will work, you will get a better contrast and more colours, even the textures will look crisper and sharper,but in darker areas you will loosemost of the detail. So better keep it off if your tv doesnt support rgb full range.

Having this setting enabled on a HDTV that dosn't support it (wich is almost all of them due to legacy reasons) will actually make your picture worse. Having a TV that does support this and having it turned on offers very little advantage to one that dosn't support it and having it turned off.

personally seeing the games running on my PS3 / HDTV, are nowhere near the quality of those pictures.. I am not saying there are no differences, but seeing both games in motion surely makes them look the same..

Full Range RGB has RGB values that range from 0 to 255 and Limited RGB has RGB values from 16 to 235, (255 beign ultra white and 0 ultra black) so don't say little.

I have to admit that the ames i have ont he ps3 that they tested look better thanthe screens provided.

The fact is comparing multiplats will never determine which console is better. as most ps3 games arew ports if devs dont spend ages on it it will never look better than the 360 counterpart.

The PS3 is not the powerhouse Sony and it's fans made it out to be. Please stop with the conspiracy BS.

What's next? Home is being delayed by MS somehow to stop it from being better than Live?

I own a PS3 and have been happy with it but I gotta admit in those comparisons the 360 does look better in most cases, and I do have my settings adjusted to full and super white, if my tv supports it i'm not sure... I can say if sony doesn't get those devs up to speed once the 360 releases a blu-ray drive i'll make the switch, and honestly the only reason i've kept my PS3 this long is cause of hte blu-ray, and the games are "decent".

Imo, most of the differences seem to go down to personal taste rather than objective superiority, ie. Would you like a little more jaggies or a little more blurries?

Well.. it is a proven fact that PS3 is 640p without AA and 360 version is 720p with 2xAA. That is why the PS3 version is blurrier and has more jaggies than the 360 version.

What's the big deal? PS3 owners have to change some settings manually to try to make their games look as good as the 360 version? I don't get what is so 4D about that?

The thing is anyone can tweek some settings to make anything look good or bad. I have found settings in many PS2 games on the PS3 that makes them look as good as any other game except the PS3 exclusives which there is no way of getting the same quality from the PS2 games.

Actually yes it does. Although it doesnt effect texture resolution it does effect the depth and clarity which are two things gamespot complained about in there comparisons yet they failed to turn on full RGB and true white.
