Xbox version seems to look very slightly better. Otherwise, looks mostly the same to me.

The game is still hilarious though, haha.

arjman4841d ago

The 360 version has so much aliasing it makes me puke....
Shadows look like they were draw instead of casted, too sharp not soft enough...

But yh this game looks crap LOL

Computersaysno4841d ago

And the winner is....by a huge country mile....PC! Yay!

Lol silly comparisons

starcrafter4841d ago

Have you played the PC version? I'm maxing it on my laptop atm - it's a pretty poor looking game tbh :/ character models are the worst part.

Computersaysno4841d ago (Edited 4841d ago )

Yup i have played the PC version. I have the final version of it here. I played it for several months way back to October of last year with the beta.

Its not the best looking PC game ever. Is it still miles better looking than these versions? Oh yes.

bumnut4841d ago

who cares about how it looks? the game has the worst handling i have ever experienced, they somehow managed to make it handle worse than the first game.

Computersaysno4841d ago

I think the handling is just a bit of arcadey fun. If they get so many complaints then its an easy tweak to patch.

gameseveryday4841d ago

the shadows looks much better on the 360 version.

Marked4841d ago

I think you mean the contrast is better......

DelbertGrady4841d ago

Sharper textures on the 360 as well. Especially ground and wall textures.

What matters most is how smooth the framerates are though.

jaidek4841d ago

wow, no matter which looks better I think we a lose with this game. Ack... For the most part, looks very similar except for the shadowing in that one shot.

Regardless, I am gonna pass.

Kiroe4841d ago

I agree. The 360 version is just way to contrasted. Hides the details.

tobysims4841d ago (Edited 4841d ago )

I like the less sharp, poor contrast and less color better too. And boy the PS3 version's inferior shadow work tops the 360 version big time :p

BIGTRIN4841d ago

This is soo cool. Imma be biased and go with PS3 Looks better! :D

Looking back to 2011 and the Botched Launch of Test Drive Unlimited 2

Richard writes: "The series may have a cult following, but ten years on Test Drive Unlimited 2 still upsets me. It was one of my most anticipated games ever, with a concept years ahead of what Forza Horizon could achieve. But it remains one of the buggiest launches of a game I can remember, completely tarnishing my memory of it."

Such an underrated game, the only problem I had with it was the car physics on anything more powerful the a Golf GTI. But to me this was the original Forza Horizon

Cult Classics – Test Drive Unlimited 2

Game Informer - It's hard to imagine what to do in a car game except race other cars, and yet with Test Drive Unlimited 2, developer Eden Games found a way to expand the genre's horizons enough to offer an experience that's slightly different from your average racer. Eden's ambition came with a cost, but Test Drive Unlimited 2 is a game that I remember fondly and appreciate for the chances it takes.

This game gets a bad rap, but I enjoy it still. The idea was great, I think that if the devs were just better supported it could have been something truly epic.

Would love to see something like this again, especially on a next gen console.

wallis4000d ago

Dear gameinformer,

look up the fucking definition of cult classic,

sincerely,

anyone who knows what "cult" or "classic" means.
