Lost Planet 2 - PS3 vs 360 comparison: PS3 demo pips 360 demo

Gameswire's uploaded 15 head-to-head shots of the Lost Planet 2 demo, and has concluded that the PS3 version looks slightly better than the 360 demo.

[Tinted Eyes]

And the Multiplat argument starts to slowly dissapear.

[Tsar4ever01]

As I compared the 2, The 1st thing I notice that how impress I was with the way the PS3 version turned out. Especially after reading how poorly the 1st game was ported. It is slightly brighter, and I still see the jaggies. BUT I saw rain & water on flowing off the characters on the x360 version where I didn't notice any on the Ps3 version. But we have to TO GIVE CAPCOM their props for porting this game so well so EVERYBODY can enjoy this title regardless of witch console you buy it on.

[The Killer]

the comparison is not taken at same time same place which it doesnt show much.

in some pictures 350 looked better and in some ps3!! i realized most of ps3 pictures was taken when there is a movement while the 360 is still!!

this comparison dont show or proof anything!!

AND any multiplatform games dont show which system is better because it all depend on what the devs used to and what tools they have and money spent on it and time!!!

when it comes to which systmen can do better games we should see the exclusives!!

[ultimolu]

...B-But the multiplats! ;_;

And the argument slowly disappears. And then the disagrees are slammed.

[Masamori Sumimura]

The killer is right.

[Cold 2000]

Getting the 360 version.

[chaosatom]

Simply Bravo on Capcom's part.

The gameplay and camera could use more work, but they really did a amazing work with the setting.

[FlipMode]

I expect someone to bring up Ghostbusters to prove their point and do some damage control. lol

[SevWolf]

Haven't played the PS3 demo yet...I'm downloading it right now...I played the 360 one and was impressed, the graphics are actually good, the videos online don't do it justice :P...after Im done downloading the PS3 version, the first thing im doing is comparing them :D
EDIT: Just took a look at the link and like The Killer said, this is a horrible comparison, all the pics don't match and most of the PS3 ones are during movement

[likedamaster]

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

And yet he CONCLUDES PS3 is better. What a joke.

[Panthers]

Those 2 pictures are very different. The PS3 pic as wayyyy to much motion going on. We need better comparisons.

[Masamori Sumimura]

Fanboys dont use Their Brains when it comes to these type of stuff.
they keep spamming the disagree button but dont even take the time to actually look at the pictures.

What killer said is very true. the pictures arent even taken at the same time and at the same angles and the settings are different. So how can they conclude that the PS3 version is better?

even if the PS3 version was better he should use the same pictures for the comparison.

even the story's picture is a Fail because they are comparing 2 different images.

please use your brains @ the fanboys.

[Saaking]

TERRIBLE comparison. I played both demos and to me they looked the same.

[Noob]

@1.9

And in this picture, the PS3 version looks better to me.

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

But again, the pictures are too different. A better comparison is needed.

[Ozzyb]

If you're going to compare two versions, use the same damn scenes. Whenever there is a still scene with reflective lighting it looks better than the other. Whenever there is motion in a shadow, it doesn't look as good. If you're not equipped to do proper comparisons, don't.

[Jinxstar]

It's just dumb to compare demos when they clearly state at the beginning that it's not the final version and still in development...

[MGSR THE HD VERSION]

"gameswire.net"

is not a credible source at all.

what is this?
http://www.gameswire.net/co...

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

this is gameplay of the 360 version and it doesn't even look like what it does in the comparison.
http://www.gamersyde.com/st...

[mastiffchild]

I've not found any real issues with either if I'm honest. Some fella was trying to tell me how awful the PS3 version was this moring on hjere but it simlay isn't true-there's nothing really between them and it's a really good looking multi plat if the demos are much to go by.

The best thing is that the DS3, being the reason I mainly prefer multi plats on the PS3 feels a lot better for me on LP2 than using the 360 pad did last time out when the PS3 port was NOT woprth playing. Hopefully they'l find many PS3 gamers as forgiving as me when this drops or it's better 360 history(earlier and way better release of LP1)will see it's PS3 sales stunted. This is why the equal performance of the demo was really needed and, for once from me this generation-well done Capcom, keep it up!

Please, though, remember I'm not knocking the 360 pad(well except for not being available in a mirror image for leftys like myself which, I think, is my main issue apart from everyone's with that D-pad!)and it's just the preference of a lefty with small, artistic mitts!

All this said I do find the fact this guy was telling me I was blind if I didn't see the 360 demo was higher res, better FPS, less tearing and was a million tmes better than the PS3 demo rather odd. Do people get so loyal to a company that they really are deluded about these things? I went back to have another look and stil thought there was very little difference and not anywhere near enough to say one was definitey "better"-though I suppose he'd say I'm mental! Oh well.

[gaffyh]

I don't like the comparison pics, they should be from the exact same point in the game, you can't really tell which one looks better, apart from the 360 version looking slightly washed out.

[morganfell]

This comparison means little. The only time it is of consequence is with a major seller - such as the Modern Warfare series and then they are so close it is all machts nichts.

What is defining is the visual strength of exclusives and in that regard the PS3 has no equal....

EDIT: Disagree if you like, it will not alter the facts. Late at night with the covers pulled over your head the truth remains. The PS3 is a true next gen console, designed to evolve, and THE visual render powerhouse of this generation.

Uncharted 2 FTW.

[HolyOrangeCows]

It's been disappearing slowly since last year.
It's pretty much gone now.

Anyway, neither version of the lost planet 2 demo looks all that great.
Too blocky.

[Lifendz]

for a 360 fanboy to have a character from a Sony exclusive game as his avatar?

[xgodofwar4sss]

that a good thing game on people

[Chubear]

Maybe the more we see multiplats like this our their face the more we can now focus more on Exclusive Vs. Exclusives as it should be. That were you truly see what's great or not so great.

[The Creep]

Poor attempt to get website HITS

[STK026]

well, the PS3 demo was out a few weeks after the X360 one, so maybe they had more time to work on it. Or maybe they didn'T.

anyway, if you really have to see a comparison, wait for the final product to arrive on shelves, not some work in progress demo when there's no evidence(that I know of) that they are both at the same level of progress in the development.

[ThanatosDMC]

Day one for me! I just hope the final version of the game will have great replay value with a lot of monsters. Wouldnt it be great if it had the replay value of Monster Hunter so that we actually have a reason to go fight those monsters again at a higher difficulty. But then again why would we need monster parts when we have guns... meh.

[Consoldtobots]

I agree Morganfell, in fact the term you use "evolve" is quite apt in that it goes right to the heart of this whole fanboy nonsense. PS3 Haters simply fail to understand that the PS3 architecture is an INVERSION of the development process. To understand what I mean by that you HAVE to look at the 360 and it's architecture (which is looking more dated by the day) which in terms of processing power is a snapshot of general hardware specification at that given point and time. A certain amount of clock cycles per task, fixed rendering paths, DVD9...3 dual thread processor cores with a single vector proc slapped on. This is by no means a bad setup but definitely not one designed to evolve. MEANING you will only EVER get so many tasks done in a fixed number of processor cycles(which you then have to spread out over 2 cores (one is reserved for os tasks).

NOW the PS3 turns this whole concept on it's head by telling developers this is no longer "paint by the numbers" and requires you to RETHINK your whole simulation pipeline from scratch. This is what has porkchop over at valve squealing like a stuck newell along with a few others around the industry. Their voice might be louder were it not for studios like Insomniac and Naughty Dog who are dropping jaws everytime they suit up for gametime. I know most of this will be lost of those permantly stuck on stupid but it doesn't change the fact that the PS3 has changed the game completely by delivering RAW processing power in the form of an orchestra leader and six virtuosos on crack in the form of the SPUs. How you make the magic happen is up to you as a developer, Sony didn't trailblaze a new path to make games, they burned the whole damn forest of software/hardware performance down in their quest to be the best.

[Strikepackage Bravo]

Gameswire is such a bogus site, they cobble together some of the worst looking screenshots I've ever seen of games, then they attempt to do a comparison with mismatched scenes, some of which are not even centered, and they always reach the same conclusion no matter what the game is, PS3 looks better? WTF! Do I smell the hand of Sony at work here, or should I say the wallet of Sony ;)

[HDgamer]

Get it for the platform you want to play it on. :D

[ABizzel1]

It would have been better if all pics were at the same time, but both version look good. The 360 version looks like it has better lighting, but it also look like it's just the time of day or where the salamander is on the stage, since the lighting is super bright on it.

[FACTUAL evidence]

Does the ps3 version actually looks........better?...

[Poopface the 2nd]

these pics arnt of the same parts, and the demos start at the different parts.

On my tv the 360 version looks better. I have a 32in 1080i/720p tv, so my ps3 displays at 720p while my 360 puts out a 1080i picture. not sure if this makes the difference but my tvs resolution is 1366x768 ao its possible it could just look sharper because of that.

both look good, and the game seems better than the first one so far.

[TheBand1t]

Got my cousin to bring over his 360 today, and we ran both versions on my TV. We really didn't notice any differences.

[morganfell]

Excellent comment. Your inversion explanation is a great way to look at matters. Very concise. Bubbles.

There is a vast chasm that lies between trying to cheat the last ounce of horsepower out of a machine versus uncovering the latent technology and possibilities in a piece of next generation hardware.

[Sarcasm]

Gameswire has some of the worst comparisons IMO

[Sarcasm]

"NOW the PS3 turns this whole concept on it's head by telling developers this is no longer "paint by the numbers" and requires you to RETHINK your whole simulation pipeline from scratch."

Unfortunately that's where only 1st party dev's from Sony have that freedom.

3rd Party developer's simply cannot "re-think" certain things because it takes extra time, budget and effort to do so.

I honestly don't ever expect any multi-platform game to utilize the PS3 as it's meant to be.

Thank goodness that Sony has a huge line up and 1st party devs ready to show what the PS3 can do.

[Consoldtobots]

@ Sarcasm

I agree and disagree, the reason no third party takes advantage of the PS3 architecture is because of the 360 (we all know that). The difference will come next year when the PS3 will overtake the 360 on it's way to another 100mil+ userbase and all of a sudden there won't be a reason to gimp a games specs down to the 360s level. In other words there won't be as much money in it as there will be in catering to the massive PS3 install base. Money talks, the love of making games walks....isn't that what fanboys have been spouting for nearly 3 years now? It seems even that argument will be taken away real soon.

p.s. np morganfell, I try to explain things the way I like them explained to me. quick and concise, save all the complex math for when Im actually writing code.

[DaTruth]

Love the way, when a comparison favors the 360, the 360 fanboys say; "Oh, teh damage control! wah wah! is true! Ps3 fanboys can't handle teh truth!" But whenever it favors the PS3 it's all; "Oh, teh bias! Wrong, look at this! and This guy is lying!"

Look at the damage control above!

They selectively believe only the opinion that 360 version is better, in every game, all the time! At least PS3 owners will say something like; "The developers are lazy", or; "Not using the PS3 to its full potential". They don't outright accuse the comparer of lying, even when you can see for yourself(not saying this comparison is an example as the shots are terrible)!

What happened to; Oh, he has a right to his opinion!" that the 360 fanboys were proclaiming in the Uncharted 2 "8" review! Suddenly, opinions aren't allowed and free speech goes out the window!

Now, you don't like the opinion! Feel free to criticize all you like!

[Poopface the 2nd]

I played them both so I know which one I would get.

[gmxracing]

from the looks of it to me the ps3 version doesn't look better to me, but i will still get it.

[Coffin87]

OMGSZORGZZZZZZZZZZZZZ they look 100% the same.

now what. i wasted 3 minutes. i want them back.

[STK026]

Actually, I was one of those who said that the reviewer from GameReactor had every right to review the game and give it an 8 since a review, despite what people would like it to be, is influenced by the person's opinion as he cannot isolate his subjectivity and be fully objective when it comes to liking a game, it's artistic style, its soundtrack or design choices. I, however, also mentioned that some elements of a game were objective, thinks like the TECHNICAL aspect of the graphics, meaning resolution, frame rate, physics and load times to name a few.

In this comparison, which I must admit, I didn't even see since I don't believe graphics comparison should be made on demos showing 2 different parts of a game and released at 2 different times (which could indicate that both version aren't even at the same development stage), it's ALL aBOUT THE TECHNICAL aspect of graphics. This is meant to be objective. This, unlike the Uncharted 2 review, has nothing to do with "opinions", it's all about facts, something this guy, from what I understand from reading the comments, doesn't really have to back up his claim.

It's about tiem people realize that there are objective and subjective elements in a game and that opinions should only apply to the subjectives ones.

Example : Someone could argue that Killzone 2 looks better than Crysis because of the artistic style of Killzone 2, it's his opinion and has every right to believe so. However, one would have to be a fool to claim that Killzone 2 looks better than Crysis from a technical standpoint, considering that for obvious reasons Crysis (can) run at a higher frame rate, higher resolution, better textures, longer draw distance, can have 16xAA etc.

See my point?

[vhero]

Who the hell cares? It looks great on both systems whichever console you got if you loved the demo you would be mad not to get its a really good game single player anyways. Just the multiplayer will probably suck like the first game and kill re-playability.

[bnaked]

the ps3 version got more lighting sources/ or better lighting..

[Ninji]

Looks like PS3 has the superior version.

[chaosatom]

The demo was quite amazing.

Go SDF!!!!!

[IcyJoker187]

lol Damn!!

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

XDF are in a Panic!!!

[I did not murder him]

"That said, some of the visuals on the PS3 version did appear to be lagging behind the Xbox 360 version, with muddier textures and a more uneven frame rate bogging down the presentation. Determining those differences was a bit of a struggle, though, as we attempted to verify earlier reports of the game suffering in the graphics department. Both versions were not presented side-by-side, so it was hard to tell how much more attractive one version looked than the other."
http://www.n4g.com/events_t...

I can't believe SDF tried to post a BS Lost Planet 2 comparisons.

Do you wan't me to post the ones for Dirt 2 or maybe Need 4 Speed Shift? If it's not developed a year later(longer) on PS3 the PS3 can't hang.

[MGSR THE HD VERSION]

morons

this is the 360 version in motion, doesn't even look like that in the comparison.

[MGSR THE HD VERSION]

360's got the better version cause it's 360 lead.

[Sir Ken_Kutaragi]

...KillZone 2 WINS!!! ;)

I found Lost Planet 2 BORING!!! :-/ A Typical ChatBox 360 Game...Zzzzzz

[solar]

wow. comparing two unfinished products to one another. how low can you go?

[54percent]

The ps3 version runs in a offcam shot, with different illumination settings and no focus in low resolution monitors, the 360 version was taken from a direct feed monitor with specific settings in high res monitors, is clearly that the 360 version wins in this impartial comparison.... oh wait... is not impartial

[RedDragan]

The multiplat games will never rival the PS3 Exclusives, they should just design all the games for PS3 and then dumb it down for Xbox360.

[gameangel]

They look pretty similar to me. And if anything, the PS3 version's jaggier...

[AliTheBrit]

That's ALWAYS a problem with the PS3

Jaggies...F*CKING JAGGIES

I hate them so much, Mirrors Edge, Dead Space - Both them had an insane amount of Jaggies compared to the 360 Version, and I'm basing all this on my own comparison btw.

Infamous also had a lot of jaggies, Playing the Demo on my 40' Samsung LCD 1080p, My eyes actually stung after playing it for a while because of the Jaggies.

The bigger problem among Multi-Plats on the PS3 though is that the PS3 version always seems to be a little blurred in comparison to the 360.

[xcox]

My eyes actually stung after playing it for a while because they're so full of sh!t"

[dustgavin]

Yea. AliTheBot likes to pretend he owns a PS3 but then continues to bash on the system as much as possible.

18 hours ago | By: AliTheBrit | Block
"Listen mate, and Listen good, how long have you been on this website? I was trolling on this site from late 07 through-out most of 2008 as a PS3 FANBOY, A DROID. for F*ck sake, hated by all the bots, and my username then was Ali_The_Brit and variations of such."

[Saaking]

Yet exclusives looks 100 times better on PS3. Obviously, the 360 is the lead platform thus the slightly lower quality on PS3 mutiplats. How about you compare exclusives instead? Oh that's right PS3 wins by a longshot.

[AliTheBrit]

Lol Gavin do you ACTUALLY believe I dont have a PS3?

You can go ahead and add me on PSN :)
(Ali_The_Brit)

The only reason I bash it so much is to even the playing field, click my user-name and follow it to my Forum posts, that gives a much better representation of how I feel on all this crap, but this is the open zone, even you over-do it I'm guessing.

End of the day, we are all gamers.

[Nelson M]

Your a BoT
A Silly Little BoT

[saimcheeda]

how can u call urself a gamer? i havent seen u complement the ps3, u always bash the ps3! and as for" evening the field" thats such a lame excuse, and what does it matter if u were a ps3 fan once? i think u just like trolling, when this site was full of bots u trolled for the ps3 now its vice versa!

[MegaPowa]

just shut up..please just the the eff up -_- its as if you have no life all the time i hear this Bot nonsense from you JUST SHUT UP.

[chase167]

its a lot cleaner

[Sunny_D]

Meh, both seem identical, it's just one issue that each version is having. Ps3 has jaggies, 360 has less vibrant lighting. Not such a killer.

[jack_burt0n]

I did notice gitching on my ps3 run though but that was a sound issue, i did not notice any glaring screentearing which people on this site were taking about, and judging by those pics its obvious the lightng is better on ps3 so the haters get silenced.

[popup]

For what ever it is worth, I had tearing on both, both looked pretty washed out compared to other games but both had a great immersive feeling and a sense of scale and power. I am looking forward to the game.

Those observations were based on playing the game.

For those strange people that like to pause, look close and have "mass debates" over the small superiorities and differences to feel good about themselves and their geeky obsession with console manufactures, have fun.

[Jinxstar]

For whatever it's worth. When you start the demo it states "This game is still in production and does not represent the final product".

[CreepyB]

ps3 version wins as always.

[AngryTypingGuy]

What planet are you from? The 360 version wins as always.

[kevinx1000]

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

[adsaidler]

both are going to look like crap compared to the PC version :)

[Panthers]

Well not on my PC. But for some reason I hate playing games on PC. I just have more fun with consoles. Maybe its just in my head, but that is how it is.

[adsaidler]

just buy a 360 controller and use it, it's like playing 360, but with awesome graphics ;)

[jack_burt0n]

That is true i am partial to the pc version in dx10 max settings running @ 120fps the first thing i thought was wow the sequel does not look as good as the first game and then remembered i have it on pc lol

[PLAYSTATIONGENRATION]

Yet I do think i will be getting this on the ps3 because a lot of my friends are finally getting one......and we are big monster hunter fans so this suits us..

[thebudgetgamer]

gameplay over graphics all day every day.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

^^^

Then go back to playing Donkey Kong.

Seriously, as this generation advances, graphics need to step up.

[thebudgetgamer]

i mean in multi-plat comparisons. unless its a huge difference i dont care as long as it doesn't affect the way the game plays.

[Captain Tuttle]

But I can't tell. The didn't take screenshots of the same things to compare. It's a really poorly done comparison.

[Delta]

They both look good. No need to bash either console.

[TheXgamerLive]

Pictures and distances aren't even closeto identical so no true judgement can be rendered.

Wait til the demo's are out, go from there.

[Darkfocus]

the demos are out /facepalm
by the way ps3 dos look better :P

[devilhunterx]

Game still blows.

[Parapraxis]

Have you tried the demo?
I did last night and was blown away.
It's a ton of fun. I had low expectations as I didn't like the first Lost Planet at all, but this was just great.

[TheBand1t]

I liked the big boss battle with the Salamander. Took at least 30 minutes to kill on my first try.

[devilhunterx]

I got LP1 one and played the demo offline and online. There is no snow yet the movement is slow and bulky.

Mechs are still slow and useless. It got all the issues from LP1.

I rather get the rocket ranger ripoff, Dark Void.

[iistuii]

lighting is slightly better, although it does appear a little more jagged that its 360 counterpart. A LITTLE, Cmon every PS3 multiformat game has more jaggies. Id rather have slightly less lighting than bloody jaggies everywhere anyday. Even Halo ODST got on my tits with a lot of jaggie levels. I HATE JAGGIES.

[heylo]

Looks like shat on the PS3, as usual.

[FlipMode]

Oh look another 360 troll on a dupe account, what else is new.........

[Masamori Sumimura]

flip mode that comment is so Hypocrite of yours. I never see you say that to the guys with 54% accounts and Rrod accounts

Its shame that I like the same stuff as you like Kid robot, busta rhymes and Bathing Ape.

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

Poor comparison.

At least next time give us the same shot or something. This is like trying to compare apples to oranges.

[Noob]

Lost Planet 1 on PS3 was absolutely horrible. One of the worst ports on PS3. LP2 looks a lot better fortunately. But after playing the demo on 360, I think I'll be skipping out on this one.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

well, with PS3 owners complaining and raiding all the time, they put pressure on companies such as EA and Capcom to do what they have to do best.

[jack_burt0n]

this is annoying tho I own the first game on pc and run it on max settings at a ridiculous framerate but @ 720p on a big screen and rented the first one on ps3 it was blown way out of proportion how bad the 1st game was it really was all the bad mouthing was mostly bullshot crap.

[NecrumSlavery]

Controls are meant for the 360. I hate that the R2 is a shoot button. I know the 360 uses the trigger but the Ps3 needs R1 shooting. But nice game

[TheBand1t]

Get some RealTriggers if you don't like the way the layout is.

http://www.amazon.com/RealT...

[mario888]

http://www.gamestop.com/Cat...

[AliTheBrit]

^^ RealTriggers are the way to Go, I've been using them long before they turned up in retail (they actually first became available as a free gift on some UK Mag)

Its pretty sad people have to use them to improve the awful L2/R2 on the DS3.

[TheBand1t]

I got a pair for my cousin who only has a 360 and is used to those kind of triggers, so he doesn't get owned too hard when he comes over for a little Resistance...

The L2/R2 never really bothered me. I just adapted.

[NecrumSlavery]

Just want it to allow R1 shooting in the control options. 360 controller sucks and some multiplatform game use the 360 layout which funkles up the PS3 controls

[Johnny Rotten]

I agree the L1 R1 should be a standard option for triggers. It feels more natural to shoot with my index fingers in their normal position(top of the controller) than trying to move them downwards, I sometimes even catch myself using my ring finger to get the job done only because it feels more comfortable for certain games.

[TheBand1t]

True story: They both look about the same, irregardless of what 360 and PS3 fanboys would say...

[Captain Tuttle]

You have the greatest name and avatar in the history of the internets.

[TheBand1t]

Why thank you. That episode of M*A*S*H was gold, btw.

[Ninjamonkey82]

Playstation 3 hands down there i know what system ill be getting it on. Good to see this tbh bout f**king time.

[Darkfiber]

I am so hyped for this game. The first was meh, but I really love the direction they are taking with this game. The 4 player co-op is awesome enough but I really love the monster hunter feel they are bringing to it. I hope the third is even bigger and adds some RPG elements to it, as much as I hate that term.

[aftrdark21]

MH feel to it. 4 players teaming up to take down huge monsters. Yep I'm sold. Anyone know when it's coming out? 2010?

[BYE]

Wow 360 users really got played on this one. First the PS3 announcement, now confirmation of PS3 version's superiority. Seems like a common thing now.

Greetings from Bioshock, Unreal Tournament 3 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.

Looking forward to Splinter Cell Conviction on PS3.

[AliTheBrit]

This is a pretty bad comparison, We need a better one.

But either way I didn't think much of the game at all.

[TheBand1t]

I liked it, if only because of the really cool boss battles.

[Autolycus88]

I thought this was a 360 exclusive.

[TheBand1t]

Was announced during Sony's E3 conference. Jack Tretton kinda nonchalantly mentioned it.

[Autolycus88]

Huh wonder how I missed that bit.

[Ngai]

i dont care which is better, this game is awesome anyway!

[STONEY4]

Whoever took these pics thinks that when you make a comparison you should move the camera as fast as possible. And take pictures at completely different angles. When things are moving really fast.

[Bodyboarder_VGamer]

I played the PSN demo and I loved it!

I'm still wondering, why Inafune say that he was disappointed with japanese game development when there were so many awesome games like GT5, FFXIII, Lost Planet 2, Bayonetta etc. on TGS 2009...

[jdktech2010]

WHO CARES??? Buy it for whichever console you have and enjoy the game....people are so ridiculous

[Raider69]

I would like to see some framerate comparison!Are there any?My pick wil be make on the more stable version!slightly visual diference dont count.

[saint_john_paul_ii]

so far, this is really good news to me and other PS3 owners who decide on getting a capcom game in the future on that platform.

The Net Framework Engine being optimized on the PS3 already leaves me with a smile on my face for future Capcom games on the system.

[MUNKYPOO]

net framework engine?

[The Iron Sheik]

"but but teh superior multiplats"

360 fanboys enjoy a nice piping hot cup of shut the f**k up courtesy of the Trey Brotherhood.

[dkgshiz]

So its no surprise. RE5 looked better on the PS3.

no. RE5 looked better on the 360. not by a big margin though. BTW engine that it used was an older Net Framework Engine. That Engine was optimized to work with the 360 and PC before the PS3 launched. after Launch Capcom was working hard on getting that engine to work on the PS3.

Lost Planet 2 is utilizing the newest Engine by Capcom, Net Framework 2.0.

This means that we should expect Capcom Games to look %99.9 identical to both system, with Sometime the PS3 outperforming the 360 versions of these Capcom games from now on.

EDIT: Sorry, thats what i wanted to say, MT Framework.

[7ero H3LL]

lost planet runs the MT engine (Multi-Thread) as did all of their games.

the Multi-Thread engine was originally made for 360's dual threaded multi core processors, back when the first lost planet came out on 360.

here's a comparison of those MT engine multiplats.

and RE5.

[jack_burt0n]

That eurogamer RE5 comparison is a total joke seriously the 360 version has NO vsync but it only effects the cutscenes? wat the hell the game screentears all the time its really bad.

Is 4xaa better than 2xquin yeah it is, but that vsync stuff is an absolute joke.

pope I dont agree this time.

[aftrdark21]

my 360 and PS3. Looked the same to me. Liked it better on my PS3 however (just my personal opinion) plus I get to play co-op online for free. Can't beat that.

Demo made me more interested in it. Gotta put it on my must have list now.

[Morituri]

That they look the same. Sorry fanboys, but you are going to have to deal with the game being the same on both systems. Don't slit your wrists over it , just enjoy the game and stop with all the nerdy, anal, childish blabber.

[SuperStrokey1123]

I think its more that the 360 fanboys have to admit they look the same really. The 360 has almost always the better looking multi and now its even finally. Hated hearing this crap...

[SuperStrokey1123]

They both look great... cant we just leave it at that? The differences that require a magnifying glass dont matter...

[JonnyBigBoss]

I really liked the demo to be honest. The co-op was fun and the gameplay was fluid. Gotta love the atmosphere and visuals too. I played it on the PS3 version btw.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

I deleted this demo after 5 minuets of playing it.

Not only did the game look jaggy as flippin hell but the bloom effect and the haze was messing up my eyes not to mention the over shiny trees, people, leafs, grass & monsters, this game sucks and it looks crap on both the 360 and the PS3.

I could careless what this game looks like if it's virtually unplayable.

[I did not murder him]

That's only in the PS3 version there is some sort of strange effect used that makes your eyes hurt when things move in the PS3 version. Everything comes out of focus on the PS3 version when things move with some sort of blur vaseline film effect(I'm guessing PS3 can't handle the detail with lots of fast action all at once so it fuzzes the detail out). You'll have to wait for credible previews if you don't believe me.

[Foliage]

Actually IDNMH that is called a "shader", since the PS3 processor is FAR and away better than the 360 it can handle a much more detailed shader.

As you can see in the 360 version, the usual problems surface: Bland contrast, colour range restrictions, poor lighting, poor shadows, less grass being rendered (in some cases less geometry), slow camera movement to hide performance issues... the list goes on and on.

At least they both suffer from screen-tearing. Like in this picture: http://www.gameswire.net/co... (Notice the name in the 360 version.)

[gameman]

wether you like it or not the ps3 ver is a lot better

[PtRoLLFacE]

hahaha slightly better on the ps3 are u kidding me lol take a look a water screenshot lol
http://www.gameswire.net/co...

[Halo3 MLG Pro]

LOL. That was the worse comparison yet. At least try to have the same screenshot.

[TROLL EATER]

360 had the demo months before ps3

[CryWolf]

So whats your point if 360 had the Lost Planet 2 demo before the PS3 did, it makes no difference as long as the game is good nobody cares.

[djtek184]

it's hard for the bots to accept the truth

[Feral Gamer]

I played the first one on 360 at a friend's place and loved it! I am very excited for the sequel. I think the first game was underrated, too bad the PS3 got a bad port.

[CryWolf]

The comparison are poor but I think the best one I would go with is PS3.

[LTC]

All I can say is STFU!!!!!!!!!

[CryWolf]

PS3 version looks alot more better then the 360 verison if your really compareing them on graphics.

[Cherchez La Ghost]

There is no need to compare every game that comes out. Both PS3 & 360 versions will sell regardless. There will always be slight differences between games. What looks better is always the subject at hand. But when it comes to the gameplay, storyline and other preferences about the game nothing is rarely said.

People here always act that what article is written always decides what the world would choose for purchase. Always crying & beoitchin about what company is "Shafting" consumers because you feel like some prices you're cheap not to buy. Everybody wants something for nothing. Oh, God forbid a game is an excllusive. "Breathtaking, Jaw-dropping, Unbelievable, GOTY" always keeps the bandwagon engine moving. It'll blow away any game "That" console has to date. The 360, Wii & PS3 are all game systems that all of my friends enjoy. It just only here in N4G so much hate, rhetoric and ignorance that people lash at each other because of their allegiance to their favorite console. Majority of comments is about what "I" as of opinion and choice that supposliy that makes their brand better than the other. I have a suggestion, just be gamers and enjoy what Dev's deliver for us. Give your opinion and just be bias for infomation about games. If you love your PS3, love it. If you love your 360, love it. But all of this back and forth will not stop money going into Sony or Microsoft pockets.

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

Murder what the hell are you talking about? I've seen the 360 version and it looks the same apart from added darkness. I was playing the LP2 demo and my bro walked in the room, laughed so hard and then walked out that's how bad the game looked, he even went on further asking me if this is really a Capcom game because they have never made a game look this bad.

Even before the PS3 version was even announced I looked at the gameplay footage of the 360 version and wondered why the hell the game looked so jaggy with so much bloom, gloss and haze and now that I've played it I can confirm that I was right.

It was seriously damaging my eyes that I had to stop playing and this has never happened before with any other game.

[CryWolf]

Or maybe you don't have the right TV to be playing it on.

[blackpanther25]

i don't get it.......some of you guys like this game. My brothers and I downloaded yesterday night and played for 5 minutes. This game is incredibly horrible........I don't remember lost planet being this bad.

[SIX]

It definately does not look better than RE5 even though it's running off the same engine. The resolution is terrible with lots of dithering and jaggies. I would imagine this game would look really good on SD TVs, but as it stands it looks terrible in 1080 p. The monsters look really good though. Especially when you fight the giant salamander boss at the end. All in all, pretty dissapointing. Been playing a lot of Uncharted 2 beta though so that might be it too. After playing that game everything looks rather basic.

[blackpanther25]

yeah man.....maybe i am spoiled but damn Lost planet Dad on my HDTV. It was truly unbearable. I saw a lot of the problem you stated in the game as well. After playing Uncharted 2 multilayer all the time......i just play this POS game

[seifer085]

Im getting this game on PS3, kul graphics fells like Jurrasic Park to me dont know why haha

[Pootangpie]

so I take there info slightly from what I saw the 360 version looked far better

[devilhunterx]

really? source please

[tudors]

both look poor due to the poor quality screenshots.

[jack who]

why do we still do this? 360 always win

[I did not murder him]

It's strange they do this with every big title. They find these comparisons from these no name sites(this one is known to be wrong always in favor of PS3) saying what they wan't to hear, PS3 fanboys boast a victory until all the legit sites do the previews and reviews always proving a 360 victory.

[LONEWOLF231]

Nah i played both and to be honest they pretty much look the same! BUT seeing as how i get better connection speeds on PSN the PS3 version is for me! Changed it now that i am pretty much looking at them closely......have both systems running......and yes they do look about the same.

[jeseth]

Its about time devs got it right. This is great to see. PS3 and 360 versions looking basically the same. Its been happening for a while but now its pretty consistant....COD, RE5, Far Cry 2, DMC4, Dead Space, Batman AA, etc.

I'm psyched for LP2. I think LP is still one of the better games this gen as far as new IPs go.

[CryofSilence]

I've been playing the hell out of this on my PS3. It's great fun :). Anyway, the comparison here is bunk save this one shot:

http://www.gameswire.net/co...

Omit the Salamander and look at the fore and background textures and details and one would have to conclude the PS3 is superior version in this picture.

Otherwise, this comparison doesn't really accurately show... anything.

Regardless, I'm getting this game for my PS3.

[xg-ei8ht]

Jack burton, true the first game does look good.

But please don't try selling dx10 or even dx11.

It's just too funny.

I've seen the lastest dx11 screenshots, and i tripped over my own laughter.

[FxckOSX]

poor shader on 360.

http://www.gameswire.net/co...
this blur is a "2.5D motion blur" (per pixel velocity mapped motion blur)
so correct visual on PS3 version.

[lonix]

xbox 360 = very slightly better textures
better AA
more flop games
more hardware failure
paid online
inferior disk format

PS3 = Better Physics
Better Online
better exclusives
less hardware failure
better disk format
better value

[cmrbe]

I don't care. The first game is the worst game i played this gen.

[blackpanther25]

honestly i agree with you all this game horrible. I want what every else is on.....I'm dead serious! This game does not look good on either console. Gameplay is good, but dear god the visuals makes my eyes hurt.

[Corepred4]

i'm sorry but this game looks like crap on both! i'm looking at these pictures with its crappy textures and jaggies and just overall graphics and i can't believe that these pictures are from a game in this gen! horrible... just horrible. the game might be fun and thats great but idk. something about having a really good game ALONG with really good graphics just makes it an even better game. guess i'm starting to be picky. damn you ps3!

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

It's not that great anyway.

Why are people concerned?

The demo was pretty lackluster.

Some of you were saying a few months ago that the trailer looked better than Killzone 2.

Um...nowhere close. Haha...sorry.

[ps360master]

got the first one one the 360 so I will get the 2nd on the 360 also.

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

I'm thinking there isn't much logic to that thought...

[Anemeros]

When a guy sits down to play it on his 360, does he think to himself: "Gee whiz I wish it looked just a fraction better! I just can't enjoy this now! Shoulda got a Playstation!"

When a guy sits down to play it on his PS3, does he think to himself: "Golly molly I was hoping for it to look slightly better! I'm disappointed! Shoulda got an Xbox!"

No.

Know why?

It's a f---ing videogame.

[beardpapa]

you guys notice that the comparison articles from Gameswire are pretty bad? They don't even use good comparison pics. On one article, they'd pictures from two completely different environments. On another article, they'd use pictures while the game is still and compare it to pictures of a game in motion. And also, they manage to get some pictures labeled incorrectly! i.e. the PS3 picture gets labeled 360 while the 360 gets labeled PS3.

[Another One]

those are the worst comparison shots I have ever seen. If you're going to do a comparison, you should at least have good photos that show the same thing in each shot (Or the split half/half like some do).

[_vx]

the Xbox look like the wii compared to the PS3 pictures

[foreverflame]

The 360 version looks better anyone who says otherwise is a sonyfanbot.

[Sizzon]

The PS3 version is better, blu-ray technology.

[Tomarcus]

It is wonderful to see multiplatform games come out looking great on both consoles. Hopefully all developers will take the same amount of time to do this.

[dragonelite]

Lost planet 360 demo was released like what 2 months ago

[tudors]

it looks much better than this.

[AngryTypingGuy]

I see that the people who took the comparison photos were to lazy to line up the same shots with the same angles for both. This would've been much more helpful.

The authors of the article said, "The lighting is slightly better on the PS3 version, although it does appear a little more jagged that its 360 counterpart.

If forced to choose, we’d probably give the PS3 version the nod, but only by the slenderest of margins. But that’s just us – check out the screens and see what you think. "

I prefer less jaggies. That seems to be one advantage the 360 always has. Less jaggies.

[menel4]

ON Japanese PS STORE you can download packs of trailers from TGS
6th pack has new trailer of GoW3. Its made from E3 Demo footage but presented in full HD. (Head scene included)

[bunfighterii]

i'm an unabashed graphics w.h.o.r.e. and it looks pretty bad on both if you ask me, from those shots that is...

[AsILayDying]

Who cares just buy it on whatever format u have when its released and enjoy it, PS3 and Xbox 360 fanboys are d1cks, love your games people.

[Thoreau]

lost planet 2 was supposed to do battle with Uncharted2, when LP2 was an 360 exclusive.

[badbond1]

of "F'in" time to discuss! The bottom line is this - every console is dropping their price because now the best deal is the $299 PS3! Catch true hi def blu ray 1080p only on the PS3! Get the best graphics only on the PS3 - fact- Killzone 2 Uncharted 1 and 2, MGS4 and so on. No comparison. It's at the point now that all of the botty boys on this forum that talk junk about the PS3 obviously don't have one and know that once they get one, the 360 will be put to sleep! Nighty night Xbox 360, nighty night!
