My god... Do people never give up with these damned comparisons?

How bout we compare Paris Hiltons Jugs with Kim Kardashian's ass.. -_-

Ontopic: Comparison's from EuroGaymers have always been biased towards Xbox 360, thus rendering this comparison BS.

@Chaos: Elaborate to me why I would need to supply proof.

what exactly is the point of a faceoff at this late stage.

for ps3 only owners, if they want this game they can only have it on ps3.

for x360 owners, they would have finished this game by now.

for multiplatform owners, plz see x360 above.

is this just to prove that ps3 owners will not have as much fun?
if its the same game, how will i not have as much fun?

these articles should just die.

Many questions? I just have one, after playing the demo. How does this game get such high scores???

Damn that was quick. The guys at DF are madly in love with their 360.

They both look mostly the same minus the change in lighting.
The PS3 version is fantastic and for once did not get shafted with a piss poor port.
Both versions look almost on par with a few small details.
The irony is if you played one then the other without knowing which system, you would be hard pressed to tell.
Bioware did a great job. People stop bitching already

There's no doubt about it.. If you want the best graphical experience of Mass Effect 2, Go for the PC version.

If you own both consoles & want the best graphical experience, Go for the Xbox 360 version.

@ Below: I beg your pardon.. I only speak the truth, friend.. I am pretty much repeating exactly what is said in the article.

if you have the option, the pc version destroys both the 360 and ps3 visually and costs like $15 on amazon, I am sure with some digging you could find it much cheaper on another site

If you do the 'cross eye' 3d trick it works!

AM I THE FIRST PERSON TO SEE MASS EFFECT IN 3D?!

probably not, but it's pretty cool to see. Some of the images don't line up that well and thus can mess with your eyes a bit, but the cut scenes are nicely matched up and look good.

Let me guess.. DF is biased too... wait.. they weren't when LOT liked the 360 version better, but DF had different findings. Ok.. now I'm confused.

Yeah,were is that guy that wrote those "LOT is bias" articles.
He will have to do the reverse thing now,lol

"The news that Mass Effect is now a cross-platform franchise has been met with many questions. Just how well can a previously Xbox 360-exclusive title operate on the opposing platform?

xbox360 exclusive, GTFO!!!!

The pc version SHITS on the console versions, you know, you can actually play it in hd (2560x1600p or 1920x1200p versus whatever sub-hd resolution the consoles use), have faster load time and anti aliasing, both console versions look exactly the same, he only one that looks wayyyy better is the pc version, you can buy the pc version for like $10

lol.

Played 1 and most of 2 on 360, wish I could play both on ps3. Still I bought zmE 2 and LBP2 up today. At least I don't know how ME 2 ends so I can find out in this version

Suprise Fanboys, it looks exactly the same except the PS3 version is slightly darker.....just the exact same as every other lame comparison video then?

Other than the lighting which i think looks better on the ps3 the game looks identical to me... so excited to finally be able to get to play this one! Woot!

For the sake of argument:

Let's say the ps3 version is utter crap when compared. Why are/would some of you ^above^ blaming Sony or the ps3?

Wouldn't Bioware be the blame? [You know, the guys/gals who made the game]

jus sayin

Mmm just went through the comparison gallery. Just a shame they don't mention quite a few improvements seen in these pictures with respect to the general lighting and for example the glare effect on lights in the game. No they choose to focus on the two normal maps that are missing and an effect that is less precise (same ex. found in the demo analysis).

I remember when games were about having fun not about fanboy insults, graphics whores, and consoles wars.

It really does not matter which version id the "superior" but that gamers across the board will get to enjoy this wonderful game. That's what's important.

I haven't checked all the comments but ti's amazing how little of you actually said "Hey Good for you PS3 only players that you get to enjoy a really good game".

Why wouldn't they add higher quality FMV's in the PS3 version. That's one area where a Blu-ray disk actually comes in handy.

"Having played well into the game, the overall feeling is that both versions have their ups and downs during the run of play, especially in the interactive cut-scenes, where the sudden jarring differences in frame-rate are perhaps most noticeable. However, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that the original Xbox 360 version of Mass Effect 2 has a performance advantage overall, especially during the exploration and combat sections."

"From a technical perspective, if it is running the Mass Effect 3 engine as the developer suggests, players are not getting any tangible advantages over what has already been released on the Xbox 360. BioWare's heavily modified Unreal Engine 3 probably did require a substantial overhaul to accommodate the Sony platform for the multi-format Mass Effect 3, so it would have made sense to use that work for the ME2 conversion rather than simply port over the existing 360 code. However, this does not manifest in a better game as the marketing seems to be suggesting."

"Technically there is not much of a case for any claims of being "definitive", but perhaps the statement should be judged in terms of content, in the way that a Game of the Year edition of a game might be considered definitive."

"Between the consoles, the gap narrows. Technologically it still feels like the Xbox 360 version has the edge, but occasionally lower frame-rates and mostly unnoticeable graphical compromises on PS3 are not going to have much impact on the fun you have playing this game. Scored today, this would still be a 10/10 game on both platforms."

360 is the better version.Bioware were talking of their ass to sell you a one year old game

Anyone who pays &59.99 for the year old PS3 version needs a mental evaluation. $19.99 on Amazon for the 360 version. BioWare is money hungry. PS3 version should be $29.99 at most, DLC and a dumb comic are not worth 40 extra bucks.

These comparisons are lame - like a majority of multi-plats, they generally look the same with minor differences. But fanboys pick out a shadow here, framerate there, light effect there - Pointless. As a dual console owner, I never can understand the unrelenting loyalty to a brand to nitpick screen shots for such a minor difference.

PS fanboys - just be happy to play a great game
360 fanboys - who cares if the PS3 version looks better or whatever - you have already had the game for a year or so.

Yeah ok, Mass Effect 2 looks better on XBox And the best on Pc, atleast I know that I can trust Digital Foundry to give their honest findings to what IGN said completely different. No I'm not an XBox fanboy, I only own a ps3 because it was my first console and to be fair also bought it as a blu-ray player. While it does dissapoint me a bit that Bioware greatly exaggerated the actual facts, I do still have my spectacularly fantastic looking Uncharted 2 and God Of War 3, waiting for Uncharted 3, I can in all honesty say it is going to be better looking than all other multiplatform, even Mass Effect 3 on the PS3. Oh and of all the good things I'm getting out of my system, when portal 2 comes later this year, when i buy the PS3 version, I get steam version of the game on pc/mac for free, I get steam cloud(ie saving game save files on valve servers, and cross play with the pc players and cross cat with any person with a steam account on the PC.

just be happy it runs as well as it does, it is using the Unreal Engine on PS3 after all.

I don't know what's the point of these comparison if we all know what's the truth im starting to consider all those reviewers a bunch of dumb asses.

1st. It's Unreal Engine 3 we all know what does it mean for PS3.

2nd. It's a third party dev (They are good but still 3rd party)

3rd. They don't have time to put the effort needed to make Mass Effect 2 (a year old game) sit right next to uncharted 2, Killzone 3 and 3 and God Of War 3 in terms of visual.

That's why i think all those who keep doin this kind of comparisons a dumb asses and the ones who doesn't see this it's clearly missing the point here.

lol, the 360 version looks and runs better than the ps3 version, qq.

Doesnt it run on a new engine? anyway good thing is everyone can play this masterpiece now.

This really is such a great game, on any platform

Mass effect 2 vs Mass effect 2

The winner is.....

Mass effect 2

Just buy the game on whatever console its all the same.

the 360 version is far superior while the ps3 version is inferior in every way

Who the hell really cares?
I for one, am not clicking the link.
