You're really going for the hottest post aren't you gamer. Here you have hit number one. COmparing graphics of consoles...uh deary me.

It doesn't even work on my computer. I still don't think you'll beat the "360 will dominate because clearly no other platform has any games of worth" article. It's at 1030degrees and still going.

Which looks "better" then?

But honestly has their been a non port comparison since Gears vs. Resistance? And according to alot of fanboys the term "Launch title" means nothing. So....

Why do you care if it is exclusive. Are you getting $$$ for rxclusive titles. I think you Mart and other guys are more worried about another system getting good games than your systems getting good games. It's a shame. Can we just games and forget about the other stuff.

5 - I can't down load the video but....

I think (I may be wrong) but this is the first game developed for the PS3 and being ported to the 360. So I am very curious to see how the VF5 PS3 version compares to the ported 360 VF5 version this summer.

I mean in the past we have seen Gears compared to RFOM but that is hard to compare graphical quality given they are two very different looking games. Then we have had a number of 360 first ported to PS3 titles where the 360 has looked better on most (not all, but most). So this will be a reversal of that...and it will be interesting to see how it fares.

FFVIIFan doesn't know what he's talking about. VF5 was made for the arcade but it wasn't really spread out in the US. Japan has some machines but I don't know how much, more than the US though. Rumors are that VF5 is gonna get an update to the game and maybe the 360 version will get that updated version. That's just a rumor I have heard. So yes VF5 is an arcade port.

7 - Neither really pull away in terms of graphics

They need to reinvent fighting games there is only so much you can do with them now a days.. Seems like both companies just upped the poly count and made the backgrounds prettier but its still the same game basically..

Id like to see a whole new concept brought to the table for these fighting games..

8 - graphics

we're comparing graphics. not which game is newer, which series you like better, which one your mommy picked up for you at walmart last week. Honestly I think DOA4 had nicer colors and didnt look quite so washed out compared to VF5. Maybe VF5 has a different/more realistic art style than that of DOA4 but DOA4 looked more visually pleasing. As far as textures, character models etc, they look identical.

10 - Apples and Oranges...

You're trying to compare two totally different games? Yes, they are the same genre, but neither is trying to capture realism. They're both arcade style games that use different models to achieve the arcade feel. DOA series has always had brighter colors, which gives it a more surreal look, whereas VF5 takes a different approach. Both are established developers and both make great games.

Basically, this is a waste of time.

12 - if its that close

then I take my hate off to DOA4 because that game is over a year old on a weaker xbox360(says sonyboys)compared to a NEW VF5 on a much stronger PS3(says sonyboys). if its that close to call then it must have been ahead of its time when it launched!!

lol well i agree that there too.. close to compare really, i have played DOA on my mates XBox360 but havnt brought it on mine and prob wont, doesnt mean i dont like it cos i had alot of fun on it. when i watched the vid i really couldnt see any difference, so like you said that DOA

"is over a year old on a weaker xbox360(says sonyboys)compared to a NEW VF5 on a much stronger PS3(says sonyboys)"

so yeh if you do want to compare these games then i would just laugh at Sonys VF5 (im not a XBox360fanboy, but i read posts where fanboys come in and post stupid comments so i spose im really laughing at them, because they cant really say anything about this being wrong)

Once again I say resistance and Gears...

Well there you go. We have the answer. A first generation game on the xbox when compared to a first generation PS3 title is not allowed to be, but a first generation PS3 title and second generation 360 title is. That's ok with me, just hope you can see it's slightly contradictory.

I'm not one who said the xbox was meant to be the weaker system. So don't pull that out at me.

And as you said they took different graphical approaches and yet it's still allowed to be compared, whereas VF5 and DOA4 isn't. It's all good.

Apocalypse Shadow - 1008 days 12 hours ago

16 - vf5 pulls out when it comes to the lighting

and shadows.but doa4 pulls the expansive backgrounds and is more colorful.the water is definitely more realistic in vf5.

i'd give vf5 the nod,but only by a smidge when it comes to graphics.but i wouldn't expect any less from yu susuki's series or am2.even tommy(itagaki) respects VF and patterned his game and characters after what he saw in the vf series.

but close call.tekken 6 had better step to the plate.toss some urban reign into the mix.and to gnothe,VF5 is a port,not built from the ground up.and sega would just be wasting time starting over from scratch.

a port from what!! that game was built with the Ps3 in mind!! plus there was an article on here were SEGA said that its easier to port there arcade board to the PS3 than it is to the xbox, so that probably explains why the xbox version of these games arent released yet(VT3,VF5)but as far as a port goes its ported from their arcade board, so its not like its ported from the xbox or anything like that!!

I couldn't tell which one was better. The video made both look really weird. Though if VF5 has 1080p support then it would probably look better. I've played DOA4 with the VGA adapter and it looks pretty damn nice. I'd say they're about even but VF5 gets the edge.

20 - wow thats a close call... I've made this comparison

with both Doa and VF5 running side by side, on the to sony bravias in my dads house. and while DOA4 looks absolutely stunning i have to give the edge to VF5, the textures and the BGs look spectacular.. as a matter of fact this is absolutely evident when you see the fabric and complexity it has as it drapes along the characters every movement. heck even the what has more of a realistic feel to it... I'll give the vastness and interactivity of backgrounds to DOA, in speed and quick execution i'd say they are even... pretty Good!!! the two of them are awesome fighters and should not be skipped especially VF5

22 - can't compare

You can't compare two different games on two different consoles like this. The true test is when it is the same game on two different platforms.

Once VF5 comes out for the Xbox 360, comparing THAT to the PS3 version of VF5 would make sense. Comparing the year old Dead or Alive 4 to the brand new Virtua Fighter 5 doesn't make sense.

I just submitted a comparison video of Armored Core 4 showing the PS3 version vs. the 360 version. That will hopefully provide some more credible comparisons.

Graphically it looks pretty equal. And I would call that a win for the 360 since the ps3 is supposed to be like a 100 times more powerful than the hubble telescope.

But Virtua Fighter was never known for top notch graphics. It's all about top notch fighting and I cant wait to kick somebody with my 360 version.

25 - Vf5 owns ALL 3d fighters

It was the 1st, and its still the best. Always one step ahead of the competition/imitators. Vf5 is an incredible achievement.
Having said that, I do LOVE d.o.a series too. Some people do claim it has too many 'cheap' reversals but I don't think so. The thing d.o.a games have over the competition Id say is the level interactivity. Like smashing through a ceiling to a next level etc.

What the hell is deepbrown talking about his Sony fanboyism is off the charts and to think i helped him earn his bubbles. If the comparison was just about seeing which fighter looks better we should have waited untill the 360 version of VF5 came out so we can get a better picture of the differences not that it's credable considering in the first place being a year apart. lol

RFOM and GoW had the same amount of dev time both dev teams started out on new hardware this is a bad example.

Xbox1 was more powerful and proved it from day one.

has come out to say i squeezed most of the 360 juices out of the system, and as soon as you retarded inbreds see somthing to compare you always give it to the 360 version. Dont act like you didnt compare ive got some posts of you comparing GOW and RFOM. That did not stop you then but wait when we come to this it isnt a fare comparison. When it all comes down to it, ill have all 3 consoles by the end of october you wont because your a inbred mutha fuker and are pure fangirl. Get over yourself you piece of bull shyting wanker.

generally my point is comparing games is silly. I was "playing" a role to show that previous comparisons were just as idiotic.

Instead of taking the usual "fanboyish" Console war fighting approach to this. Why doesnt anyone look at it from another perspective. Maybe they are just showing how much progress had been made in a year. I must say the character models on Virtua Fighter are very impressive. I think Tekken 6 come out victorious on both these titles.

Just how I feel about it.

Graphically, I'd give the nod to VF5 (slightly) after playing both games (bought DOA just to compare after this article was posted) although the graphical styles of the two games are quite different. Some will say its apples and oranges but you know, some people prefer apples over oranges (and vice versa). Background interactivity is the staple of DOA. Background interactivity doesn't mean its graphically superior. Good character models in VF5 doesn't make it graphically superior. I could write a 10 page contrast and comparison doc on this but I ask you, WHY?
