Fight Night Round 4: PS3 vs. 360 comparison screens

Fight Night Round 4 sports some very nice visuals, but which console offers the better? Are there even any differences? Cynamite has put up lots of comparison screenshots from both the PS3 and the 360 version of Fight Night Round 4.

No, there aren't.

There would not have been these comparisons if people didn't use Unreal Engine in the first place, which developers had a hard time using on the ps3. Other than that all games look alike.

Mindboggle5449d ago

There is no difference at all....both look incredible...

lordgodalming5449d ago

Wow, from these shots, not a stitch of difference. Kudos to the devs.

Aquanox5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

There IS a quite noticeable difference when you look at the Original Size pictures.

It seems that the PS3 version is once again using the Quinqux AA which is bluring the image in comparison to the Xbox 360 version.

Quite an achievement considering this hands down the game with best looking characters around and one of the best looking games overall.

Edit:

What the heck happened with the lightning on PS3 here? :S

PS. Remember this game features "Real Time Muscle Flex", so the muscle definition will be dependant on the action the boxer is taking.

lordgodalming5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

Aquanox you must have eyes like a hawk. I can't see any blur or clarity difference in either shot, even in the background characters. The lighting IS quite different, though. I'm guessing the scene has either simulated photography flashes or some other dynamic lighting.

karan86245449d ago

I cant tell if either is better, i need a side-by side comparison.

callahan095449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

What's wrong with the lighting on the PS3 version, Aquanox? Those two shots look identical except that the PS3 version is brighter. Looks like a flash bulb is going off at the moment of the screenshot, perhaps ... there's clearly an additional frontal light source on the PS3 shot. Clarity is lost due to lighting in BOTH shots. For PS3, the details of the boxer's shirt are lost due to the bright light reflecting off the white cloth, so you don't see the texture of the cloth; on the 360 shot, it's too dark to make out the hairs on the boxer's arms, chest, and face. I don't see any fault in the PS3 lighting. The 360 shot is a little on the dark side for my tastes.

ZuperAmazingCooKie5449d ago

I just "remembered" he is a south american 360 fanboy. WHO CARES?

Aquanox5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

^^

What the heck does my avatar matter when I'm posting links to direct feed screenshots taken by a 3rd party?

Ohh these kids...

LONEWOLF2315449d ago

Yeah as Aquanox stated the PS3 version seems a bit more blurrier than the 360 version other than that both version look great.

As for the shot, it seems Mike Tyson is rollin Michael Jackson style...lol

Well anyways Good stuff and great Job Devs.

ReBurn5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

Wait, so are you saying that an avatar affects your credibility? If so then that's lame.

I think that the main difference between the pictures that Aquanox linked is that the PS3 shot has a flashbulb effect and the 360 picture does not. That's about it.

Overall the games are pretty much identical from the screenshots. The clear winner is the gamer if the game plays anywhere nearly as good as it looks.

Camper5449d ago

U R A fanboy who works for microsoft everyone knows it

Information Minister5449d ago

...always play your games with 300% zoom! Otherwise you won't be able to tell the difference.

/sarcasm

The Lazy One5449d ago

I just remembered, he is a cookie... WHO CARES?

PS: nice edit...

Kleptic5449d ago

Aquanox...the pics you posted look like a camera flash went off when they grabbed the PS3 version...if you watch the trailers, that entire seen with tyson has flash strobes going off on him from the media or whatever...could just be that...as obviously that isn't 'just how it looks'...

i don't know though...the game play footage of the game hasn't impressed me as much as these cut-scene like things...it looks great, just doesn't look that fun to play...and i am lossed where people are calling this the 'best looking game ever'...great character models, yes...but the animation and the way the fighters react with each other still seems clumsy at best to me...but whatever...thats just my opinion...

but the entire idea of Ali and tyson fighting is simply awesome...but anyone that ever watched either of these guys in their prime...would know Tyson would probably knock Ali's head off...if we are talking late 80's/early 90's tyson...there is little evidence to go against that...even if the guy is a complete idiot...

xwabbit5448d ago (Edited 5448d ago )

Aquanox all ima is LOL to those links, those shots aren't even shot at the same time frame, u got diff people in the 2 pics. Learn to make bs claims like IGN and gametrailers did with the video game comparisons. Dk y I even wasted my time looking, I just need to look at ur avatar to know if I should take it serious.

PS3istheshit25448d ago

THE POLYGONS ARE OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!!!!
seriously though there are way more polygons and texture in the ps3 version
more focus too

CobraKai5448d ago

I think there is slightly more detail in the nipple of one version but other than that, identical.

scheme_a5448d ago (Edited 5448d ago )

I'm almost certain it's just a flash from camera
I mean, they look pretty much the same on other pics, so wouldn't that be really the only reason they would look that drastically different?

edgeofblade5448d ago

Identical. In a double blind test, you would not be able to consistently pick the same console.

Tito Jackson5448d ago

Its a camera flash. Look at the edges of everything in the picture, you'll see shadows. A light is being cast upon thema(a flash prolly) from one direction, and its making a shadow. Duh.

Is it true that PS3 offers native 1080p?

talltony5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

then you know what version I'm getting.

Still their really is no difference from these pics from what I can tell.

solidsnakus5449d ago

its true, but only on a handfull of PSN games and a couple exclusive games. multiplats are never native 1080p.

7ero H3LL5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

they're both running at the same resolution, don't know if it IS 1080p or not though.

the only thing i noticed different other than the skin was the anti aliasing level that both ps3 and 360 use.

360 version looks better. just look at those pics, ps3 version looks blury.

The 360 version has less hats.

ultimolu5449d ago

>.> PS3 inferiorz!

/sarcasm

DelbertGrady5449d ago

The 360 can't handle the intricate mobster hat physics and the PS3 can't handle the Steve Ballmer hairline.

Venomish5449d ago

pathetic just pathetic
these comparisons are pathetic
the story of a poor guy with a poor console trying to do whatever it takes to make his console look good.

point 1: multiplat games look identical
point 2: ps3 is better than xbox, get over it

kaveti66165448d ago

Spin it when you're able to spin it (Uncharted 2, Killzone 2), and don't spin it when you can't spin it (GTAIV, Silent Hill Homecoming, Fallout 3, etc).

:( Fanboys get butthurt.

SL1M DADDY5448d ago

True, but they make up for the lack of hats in the extra clothes on the ladies... No, I'm not saying that's a good thing.

Bigbangbing5449d ago

well, there is a HUGE differences

look at the last two pic (Muhammad Ali) you can clearly see two HATS on the PS3 Version and no HATS at all on the Xbox360 Version, this thanks to TEH CELL PEOWER :P

StanLee5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

It's all randomly generated. Like in the last frame with Mike Tyson; on the PS3 version the main trainer is black while in the XBox 360 version, the main trainer is white. You'll also come to notice that all the corner persons are all the same just randomly generated. In the black and white frame of Ali, the corner person over his left shoulder is wearing a different hat in each of the versions.

Bigbangbing5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

LOL, did you really think that my post was any serious?

of course it's Sarcasm :P

-chaz-5449d ago

Well you guys heard about those new SPU-powered hat shaders, didn't you? By next year, Sony might even start rendering socks on the SPUs!!!

Alcohog5449d ago

Confirmed: 360 is racist!

Megaton5449d ago

It's a shame the 360 still can't overcome the challenges of hat processing.

GUNS N SWORDS5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

no, every time you load a match the NP characters change in clothing.

Grown Folks Talk5449d ago (Edited 5449d ago )

of how many N4G posters will be playing both versions of this game side by side, at the same time? I have the setup in my gameroom to pull it off, but have absolutely no desire to pay for 2 copies of the same game. People will buy a copy for A) the system they own, or B) the system they have the controller preference for if they own more than 1. These articles are Fn retarded.

mastiffchild5449d ago

A, farkin, men to that brother. Even UE3 games now have differences so tiny that you only notuce them when they're pointed out. And that's on the system they're using for the comparison-which won't be the same as yours in any case.

Like you so rightly sat controller preference, single ownership and whether or you like to/can/don't like to/won't/will pay to pay online are the things that effect which one you choose to buy any game for-and def not the amoeba sized differences(usually unnoticeable during heated gameplay anyway)in games designed to look as close to each other as humanly possible.

Do these comaprison articles keep people in jobs? If they do then there's at least one reason for them to exist but I cannot imagine another-at least not now.

Guess we won't see another Fight Night until next gen at the soonest. Did any notable boxing games come out this gen at all?

lptmg1591d ago

the Creed game for PSVR was pretty good.

Skuletor1591d ago

Didn't know it existed, I'll have to look it up. Thanks

Petebloodyonion1591d ago

Fight night round 4 is still the best boxing game at the moment.
I still pop it in my old Xbox from time to time and nothing beats the feeling of a close fight in the late rounds.

isarai1591d ago (Edited 1591d ago )

I liked round 3 better myself, it gave you a lot more controll especially when it came to defense, which really allowed you to develop your own style and finesse to things.

Petebloodyonion1590d ago

I loved Round 3 but it was nearly impossible to win as a technical boxer.
The game heavily focused on the counterpunch Philly stance and Ko made winning a match by points nearly impossible.
Also, the losing boxer on a scorecard would get a boost of Stamina later on (lousy catch-up logic) was not something I was fond of.
I could also add the Headbutt that made cutting easy.
But I loved the corners mini-games or the dept of working on bruises and cuts.
The animation was also fantastic.

SkatterBrain1591d ago

cut the UFC Servers too , some of those grapples look awkward when people would walk in and see 2 guys straddling each other, i tried soo hard to make it not look weird

traumadisaster1591d ago

Tbh the actual matches look awkward when passerbys walk in and see the straddling party. I constantly think get up and fight.

BQ321591d ago

Round 4 was the best the franchise had to offer. You could find success playing to each fighters strengths and anytime somone wanted to spam a particular cheese i could always find a realistic boxing strategy to counter it. Champion started off pretty good but the game was very exploitable and became a cheese fest. The auto block severely hurt the game as well. If they ever make a new game i hope they look at how they achieved competitve balance in the gameplay of Round 4.

TheColbertinator1591d ago

Graphics were top notch in FN4. Too bad EA never returned to it.

We need Fight Night to return to the ring

Improved 4K visuals, a new generation of boxers and improved multiplayer lobbies…man, that would be great. Until that day comes, Fight Night is going to remain outside of the periphery of the fighting game genre, as the ref slowly counts one of the finest franchises out of the ring.
