A lot of people are going to find this a bit rude but I have to comment on this. I have read through many of the other posts on here, a great deal of you stating that these comparisons are "useless and pointless!" My question to you is, "why did you bother looking at this comparison then?" seems to me that these comparisons are done because of people like you! Quit crying about it, if you are going to choose to read about it in the first place! Obviously you were intrigued enough to look at the comparisons, otherwise you never would have commented on them....duh? To me these comparisons show that the PS3 is not graphically better than the XBOX360. The graphics on the XBOX look more real and natural as opposed to the ridiculous, unnatural looking color palate that the PS3 chooses to use. If things are supposed to be in shadows, how would it be possible to make out the bright burgundy paint that the PS3 shows in the second screen shot? You couldn't!, this is not realistic, yet all the PS3 owners talk about how superior the graphics are on that system. This is exactly what started these comparisons in the first place; a bunch of PS3 owners talking about how much better games look on that system, because they needed something to make them feel better about their mistake of spending over $600 on a system, that was only good for watching blue ray movies on.
