Note the consistency of the 360 frame rates while the PS3 dips a lot.

...dips a lot. Yeah, down to 58fps instead of 59. Wait, on one occasion I think its 59.91 vs 59.11. Yeah, definitively. Don't buy this sh!t. LOL.

To be perfectly honest I think the PS3 looks more in tune with a real life color scheme when compared to the 360 version. The 360 version looks oversaturated to me and I can automtically tell it's a video game from far away.

They're lucky Amazon has a 50 dollar pre order credit deal going, or I'd skip this and wait for Bad Company 2 and Mag.

Is this NOT the WORST screen you've ever seen?! For either system, what ugly graphics:

Its got to hurt ps3 fanboys like you that one of the biggest games of 2009 is sub par compared to the xbox 360. And then to hear you all cry about how you aren't going to but it is just icing on the cake. I hope the 360 version outsells the ps3 version 4 to 1. :)

Subpar? Idk about you but there is BARELY any Difference and any that is should be in the TVS settings. Multiplats these days are equal. 2007 has come and gone and yet 360 owners INSIST that everything is better on the 360. The only way you can tell 90% of the freaking games between systems is the controller now. Jesus you children are PATHETIC.

Listen guys, I have both a ps3 and an xbox 360. I use the same calibration settings for both systems through hdmi. My samsung tv uses the low hdmi setting with the ps3 set to limited and the xbox 360 set to standard. This and only this is the correct setting for both of these consoles through a tv. Expanded and RGB full are for monitors and nothing else. Some multiplatform games just tend to look washed out on the PS3. That's just life. It has nothing to do with the settings. Quit trying to blast the site when it's convenient to do so. Cough... cough... Batman Arkham Asylum...

So the 360 has an ever so slightly better version. They really are looking at the game in minute detail to spot things like that so its not going to swing my opinion in anyway. Is the human eye really gonna notice a difference between 55fps and 57fps on some scenes, ummm no. Im fine with that

Well il be buying the PS3 version for trophies and the pleasure of playing it on a quite system. Oh and free online :D

I just hope the differences in Assassins Creed 2 are this small

8 - Ps3 shadows look better
X360 version uses a cheap trick to "blur" the edges, while in PS3 they actually do it. Look at the protagonist's hands in this picture:

14 - IMO....
I could really care less. I said i wasn't buying this game if it didn't show me anything new as far as multiplayer. The minor upgrades i saw didn't sway me the least. I'm just going to wait for Bad Company 2 and head to Gamestop tomorrow so i can receive the beta code. Good luck swallowing that pill.

P.S. 360 version is always darker than the ps3 version. It's just common knowledge.

What i really want to know is how come on the other comparison they look exactly the same, yet on the lens of truths comparison there's a noticeable color difference. It's like they left rgb full off on the ps3 version or something. One of the sources is lieing.

16.1 - That's the problem with sites like this.
The problem with sites like LOT is there's usually no way of checking if they're accurate or not. In this case, there was a recent screenshot comparison of this title to compare, so we know that something's up because that site's PS3 shots had nice light bloom that wasn't always on the 360 version and the colors looked better.

Most of the time, the only other site doing these types of comparisons is Eurogamer, and Eurogamer has a proven pro-360, anti-PS3 bias compared to the average game site. On top of that they're actually partnered up with Microsoft to deliver Eurogamer content exclusively to XBL. It's no wonder they have a pro-360 bias, it's in their best interests.

So, where else can you go to verify that what LOT says is actually true.

I'll take Metacritic scores and reviewers I've trusted over the years versus these questionable "comparisons" any day. Half the time they don't even bother comparing the final, retail code but instead use demo's at various build stages against each other. That says a lot right there.

Edit: And how the hell did these guys get an advanced copy of this title? You can't tell me Infinity Ward knowingly advanced them copies of each version of this title so they could pick apart one version over the other. Oh wait. They didn't. A Play and Trade broke the street date, just for LOT. How nice.

i doubt the differences between each version of mw2 are that great. i believe they are biased. the game batman/arkham a. looked very washed out for the ps3 and i watched the game being played and it was not washed out at all. in fact 2 out of 3 staff writers preferred the ps3 version. hmmm i wonder.

I don't know why you have to fix the screen for the ps3 and not for the xbox 360. Once again Xbox 360 is the superior version.

24 - Who cares?
Who cares which system this POS "war simulator" looks better on? I won't be buying, renting, or in any way contibuting my money to this horrible franchise.

I would suggest you all do the same as to avoid yet another COD sequel the same as the last. No...it's really not THAT good!

25 - Lens of Truth is just as bad as GameTrailers
I.e., they're a bunch of liars. Check out the true comparison here, at Cynamite:

The game looks absolutely identical on both platforms.

I love how everyone posts the http://www.cynamite.de/ link as if they are 100% truthful. It is called adjusting the in game gamma, LoT left all game settings default like they always do and http://www.cynamite.de adjusted each system to match.

So, if you are adjusting which one is correct? The washed out PS3 or the overly contrasted Xbox 360. Last I remember it isn't up to the consumer to choose what is right visually, it is the art directors job. IW failed at matching the visuals with their default out of the box settings.

30 - These games are starting to get so boring!!!
So much hype for this game. I will pass on both versions as this is just another boring seen it all before typical COD fps. Getting SO sick of these same old god damn military games. Cant they think of anything new for a change? I will stick to Borderlands for a very long time when it comes to a fps. At least that is different and has an awesome theme setting!

31 - Why are people complaining about the graphics comparison
when the real factors that separate them both are considered to be:

Load times
frame rate

Those are the things that you really have no control over, unlike screen settings and such.

Either way, the differences don't add up to much to complain about.

As someone who owns both a 360 and a PS3, I'll be getting this on the 360 because I once caught my PS3 looking at kids.
