It's official: Oblivion on PS3 owns the 360 version

Kiss the item duplication glitch goodbye.watchcity

[QUOTE="espoac"]Cool, I would say I hope that this will silence lem's claims of PS3 inferiority but alas, that'll never happen. And BTW the 360 patch will fix shader models on far-off textures but not loading times. So the PS3 version still has a leg up in some respect.Dreams-Visions

Proof that IGN is worthless:

This is just one example of their preview that reads like it should be a good game.  The only downfall they mention is the graphics and talk it up the rest of the interview and score it a 4.  One editor has even stated they talk a game up and err more on the side of giving a sugar coated preview.

IGN is usually too lenient, but read this preview and tell me this reads like a game that would eventually get a 4.0.

you do realize it's all being patched for the 360 version, at least most of it, right? The reason the PS3 has these upgrades, is because the developer has been given the opportunity to improve on their masterpiece. The same things can and will be accomplished on the 360, and I'm glad they're finally taking out the stupid item duplication glitch.O_Lineman17

[QUOTE="Film-Guy"]you do know that there will be an update for the 360 which adds many of the new things you said, like less pop up scenery and being able to see far. also I played oblivion last year, so im not interested in it again. oh and morrowind>>>>>>>oblivionnewsoulhk

[QUOTE="HeedleGlavin"][QUOTE="SambaLele"][QUOTE="HeedleGlavin"][QUOTE="SambaLele"][QUOTE="HeedleGlavin"]So, because the PS3 version has shorter load times, less slow down and more draw distance - it owns the 360 version? :|-Pale

Could 1up have been previewing a old build of the game????

I guess we'll have to wait until GS reviews the game.

Good news for PS3 none the less.

The PS3 version of Oblivion isn't a simple port of the game either, although players who have picked up the 360 version will be very familiar with the control scheme. For one thing, the PS3 version has been optimized to take advantage of the Cell processor and hardware that the system offers. As a result, the game runs a lot faster than the 360 build. Entering dungeons or buildings results in a load of 3-5 seconds, compared to the 7-10 seconds or longer for the 360 version of the game. Similarly, the amount of framerate drops or hitches that cropped up in the wilderness as you accessed a new area on the 360 have been substantially reduced on the PS3 version. There is a plan to completely eradicate these issues as the game nears release, as well as fixing a number of bugs that were present in the other builds. Kiss the item duplication glitch goodbye.

The visual presentation of Oblivion has also been significantly enhanced. While it was a beautiful title on the 360, far off environmental details often displayed low resolution textures. This has been fixed with new shaders dedicated to rendering the foreground cleanly with sharper details, so rocky landscapes now have craggy appearances instead of smooth, non-distinct surfaces. While there is still a fair amount of pop-in that occurs (which can't be helped due to the size of the world), the draw distance is farther than the 360 version. As a result, screens from the PS3 version should approach those from high end PCs running Oblivion, which is an impressive feat.

too bad same shader update is coming to xbox 360 noob.

and believe me, oblivion will have worse framerates on ps3, because nvidia hardware runs oblivion like crap compared to ati.

this topic has gotten out of hand, the only relevence this news has to SW is that lemmings were wrong about oblivion being downgraded for ps3. whoopdeedoo. end of story.

So much for the lemmings saying the PS3 version was a downgrade. Its actually an upgrade :Dasdasd

well, I guess the developer found out how to use the system for its strenghths.  I wouldnt say it will own the xbox though.  lol  First of all that is such a childish thing to say.  Secondly, the xbox version will probably have things the Sony version doesnt. 

Good to hear good news for Sony for once though
