TheSixthAxis: Red Dead Redemption: PS3 vs 360

We first picked up on the fact that the PS3 version of Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption was visually inferior in terms of resolution yesterday, reporting on information from the Beyond3D forums. Since then, other sites (presumably with access to both versions) have listed some more of the differences.

I'm still getting it on PS3 (in UK so not out untill tomorrow) as I find the overall image to be alot better looking in everything compared to the 360, I don't know why as they are both through HDMI just much prefer the PS3 graphics.

JokesOnYou5719d ago (Edited 5719d ago )

Of course when there's article after article analyzing the differences of FF resolution and AW being bashed over sub-hd rez, even though its one of the best looking games on any console with Remedy's use of the 4xaa and beautiful atmosphere....aahh but none of these sony kids were complaining about comparison articles then. lol, Now one of the biggest games this year is inferior on ps3 and every sony kid tells us ain't true. Really?, yet R* was very late getting the ps3 version to many big sites like IGN, and now we have respectable sites like this one saying its far more than just a lower rez issue, like early reports suggested (which sony soldiers said wasn't true also) Now its a combination of things like Resolution, Anti-aliasing, Missing Objects, Simpler Objects Textures, and even Framrate=
"And yet, despite all this, the PS3 version doesn’t manage to hold up the same framerate as the silky smooth Xbox 360 version. It’s hardly bad (and there’s some argument as to whether it’s even better than the one in Grand Theft Auto IV) but, according to reports, not nearly a constant frame rate which is actually suprising given the graphical chops and changes presumably made to actually assist the frame rate. This is the only key area which affects gameplay – how much is probably down to the individual gamer."

-oh, but both versions are the same, sure and if these statements were being made about the 360 version I'm sure the reaction by many in this post would be the same, lmfao karma's a beeatch.

regardless im getting it for ps3. im soo tired of this sh!t, please no fanboy wars......

hennessey865719d ago

but the problem is when alan wake was leaked as sub hd the ps3 fanboys had a field day so now its the xbox 360 geeks time in the lime light me personaly i have both consoles and shall be getting the superiour version on the xbox just like i did with final fantacy on the ps3

"The Xbox 360 version of RDR looks super sharp, but with nicely smoothed edges "

Bullshit. The Aliasing on the 360 is almost as bad as on the Ps3. The edges aren't smooth at all.

FragMnTagM5719d ago

I am playing it on the 360 and it has nice anti-aliasing. It really doesn't matter though as the game is a beast regardless of platform of choice.

Hogtying, hunting, bandits, trains, bears, cougars, and such = fun!

No need to compare the differences as it isn't going to stop PS3 only owners from enjoying such a great game. If I had just a PS3 and not a 360, I would still pick the game up and have a blast, regardless of a few differences that could very well be fixed with an update.

N4GAddict5720d ago

I'm playing the PS3 version. The game looks great.

WinterWolf5720d ago

The game plays very well. After reading some of these articles, I was becoming worried but if you are not comparing side by side, the differences are mostly negligible.

The frame rate is actually impressively smooth, with very few exceptions. And the colors on screen look way better than the stuff I have seen in these comparisons. Texture Pop In is kind of noticeable if you are going really fast on your horse, but not a big problem.

FrankDrebin5720d ago

the game my friend. It is amazing!
You won't even know what you are missing when compared to the 360 version.

XactGamer5720d ago (Edited 5720d ago )

Why is it when tigersnake86 says he is playing the PS3 version all is fine but when N4PS3Fanboys says he is playing the 360 version it considered trolling?

This site is broken and bias

raptorjacob5720d ago

you left off the last part of n4ps3fanboys post which is the trolling part. You are right it wouldnt have been if he would of left it as he is playing the 360 version and it looks great.

Red Dead Redemption Hits 3.3 Million Netflix Downloads on Mobile

More like people don't play these type of games on their phone normally and don't try them out. Not like the places where people do play these games haven't crushed those numbers easily.

How many people actually played more than an hour of the game or came close to finishing it on mobile is the real question. If people aren't playing the games to a point that is purposeful, then why try when a subscription that is behind a streaming service isn't a sign of success but just curiosity.

What if Netflix becomes ‘the Netflix of gaming?!’

Alek832d ago

I downloaded it because I already have a Netflix sub.
I am not going to buy it for $40 or whatever it costs on Google Play.

I tried it out and will be sticking to the PC version, but it's not bad.

Having said that, this is the issues I see vs the PC version:
1. Greatly reduced texture resolution.
2. Massive downgrade ALL lighting quality (this includes water, shadows, etc).
3. Stutter and heat. Prolonged play leads to both.
On the plus side, we have:
4. This thing is like 6GB vs the 12 on Steam.

Great way to try the game, but not the best way to play it.

darthv724d ago

Perhaps Netflix will make a RDR series now that ST is done with.

Lionsguard3d ago

A Netflix version of RDR?... Oh boy... I can't wait... /s

TheColbertinator2d ago

They should build a production that includes members behind the True Grit remake and Hell on Wheels from AMC. Both were perfect for wild west vibes.

gold_drake2d ago

but i doubt people ACTUALLY played it on smartphone vs tried it out.

Another free update...good to know but I don't own a series X

Petebloodyonion36d ago

I’m not sure what the exact issue is. I had no trouble getting the free update—you basically get the new game for free if you have the 360 version in your digital library. Maybe the problem is related to owning or not owning the Undead DLC expansion.

Hypertension14035d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Yea I think thats what it is. I also own the game but not the expansion, and im unable to download the update.
