CoD4 Preview: PS3 Version Excels Over 360's - Blu-ray Forum

COD4 Preview: "...Playstation 3 version definitely excel over the Xbox 360 SKU."

Quote:

Still, as strong as Call of Duty 4 is shaping up to be in the gameplay department, the most immediately impressive aspect is by far its graphics. The PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions all look surprisingly similar, but that's not due to one platform being the lead; Infinity Ward personally assured us that development occurred simultaneously on all three platforms, and that there wasn't a base system. With that said, the console similarities end when it comes to textures, lighting and resolutions, because those three areas make the PlayStation 3 version definitely excel over the Xbox 360 SKU. Regardless, every console owner will proudly use Call of Duty 4 to showcase their high-definition TV, because COD4 is by far the best-looking console game you will see this year.

I thought everyone here should see that. Please read the entire article. It is packed with exciting information!

Surprising as they seem to be putting so much focus on the 360 version, very welcome news that they're getting so much out of the PS3 nonetheless. Gabe Newell ought to pinch some of their staff to start working as a PS3 team at Valve.

Cool.

I already have it pre-ordered from amazon, reviews be dammed!

But honestly I hope this isn't another Lair

been playing with the pc demo, and oh... my... god...

supersix4 · 10-12-2007, 09:56 PM

gotta get it for 360 as good as that sounds lol

powerSURG · 10-12-2007, 10:00 PM

Wow, I think I'll pick this up now. Hopefully it plays a lot better than the previous console CoDs.

Also, I hope the PS3 version validates what this article says.

I think it will be hard to find a copy of this one when it comes out. I will reserve it very soon.

kiskiboy97 · 10-13-2007, 12:45 AM

Excellent. I'll be picking this up on release day!

darkpoet25 · 10-13-2007, 01:05 AM

Like Mr. Burns says: Exxcceelleenntt. I will be picking this up, but I will be busy playing the limited edition of Assassin's Creed till I do.

I'm tired of the "your ports suxxors" crowd...

KingDeezie · 10-13-2007, 02:40 AM

Wow, this game was way under my radar.

I skipped Call of Cuty 3 because while I did enjoy Call of Duty 2, I was not at all interested in reliving the experiance via the third one...

It was for this reason I had only remotely been interested in 4 even though I was aware they were changing the era of battle...

This game does indeed look awesome from that preview that was posted, thank you to the OP for bringing it to my attention...

I might have to pick this one up...

oldmike · 10-13-2007, 03:01 AM

looks like i will get COD4 now

richard lichtenfelt · 10-13-2007, 03:09 AM

This was the most ballyhooed game at E3 according to Game Informer Magazine. They said that it consistently drew the largest crowds, and was the talk of the convention.

blu_world · 10-13-2007, 04:24 AM

If the PC version fits on a DVD without mega-decompression when installing I doubt those supposed higher-res textures take up that much more capacity.
