Call of Duty 3 video: Xbox 360 vs. PS3. vs. Wii

After we've already seen some comparison video's showing us Xbox 360 vs. Playstation 3 battles, this time also the Wii is involved. Of course it's not completely fair to judge Nintendo's new console on graphics, since it's focus on other features, but it's still nice to compare how the game really looks like in compare with the 'real' powerfull next-gen consoles.

or do all ps3 videos seem "washed" out compared to their 360 counterparts... I just get the feeling that the 360 is doing better contrasts (particularly the night scene... you can hardly tell that its night time on the ps3)

venom nolatari6358d ago

I agree that COD3 on the PS3 looks too bright on the video, very 'washed out' The 360 looks far better.
No, i am not a fanboy if the 360 was worse i would say!!
As for the Wii I think it looks like the PS2!! Not really 'next Gen' is it? But it is early day's for the ps3 & the Wii, so i am sure things will improve

SuperSaiyan46358d ago

The Xbox 360 has a far superior GPU so its obvious who will have the beter graphics.

I cant believe how crappy the Wii version is! Anyway, the 360 is clearly better than the ps3 version. The very end of the video where you see the soldiers shooting...you can see how the lighting is better on the 360...especially when they're shooting there weapons! You cant even tell night from day in the ps3 version. Another game better on the 360!

Oh yes...good to be a 360 owner!

It makes me think that Wii was the system that Nintendo needed to come out with last generation instead of Gamecube. Yes, to the person above, the lighting on PS3 does seem to be a bit too bright on many games. The thing is, there are situations where being better lit can be useful. Let's take a combat simulation like we just saw as an example. You're pinned down behind a wall by a sniper up in a tree or on a rooftop somewhere, but you can't see him. You need to be able to look around in short bursts to try to find him before he kills you. If the graphics are very dark and shadowy, that sniper is going to blend better and be harder to locate than if everything is well lit. Too much lighting does have the effect, though, of making the colors look faded, which isn't good.

Is it okay for the Wii to have crappy graphics. They are only charging $50 less than what a core 360 cost.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth800d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo800d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy800d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad800d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX800d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam800d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje800d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad799d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude800d ago (Edited 800d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain

With COD WW 2 rumoured this year, let’s look at the series' best World War 2 moments

If the rumours are true then COD will be returning to World War 2 this year. The evidence is strong: by Activision’s own words the series is “going back to its roots” for its next instalment. There’s also some leaked art and steelbook covers that, while still unconfirmed, definitely look the business. With that in mind let’s take a look back at some of the series’ greatest WW2 moments. From weird and quirky levels that have you crawling through a pipe, to all out warfare against impossible odds or battling fighter planes in a bomber falling apart in midair. Moments like these can get lost in the cycling din of yearly iterations, so let’s take a moment to appreciate some of Call of Duty’s stand out levels.

WaW was my favorite WW2 Cod. Even too this day i think it is my favorite CoD because of the atmosphere/tone of the game.
