Welcome back for another exciting Head2Head! This week we're excited to take a closer look at the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 demo versions of Capcom's Asura's Wrath. The full game will be released on February 21st. Get a peek at how these two versions are shaping up after the jump.
A tie.
The same on both consoles. Whoever ported this game must be very talented.
Now some developers decide to pretend like they're still in 2006-07 (thinking of Bethesda).

Voted tie, I can spot a few differences here and there but nothing that would make either version better than the other.

A comparison from another site has highlighted several differences between the two version, all in the favor the Xbox 360. Motion blur is pared down in the PS3 version, and in various occasions, there are even missing shaders. Now, perhaps the graphical differences might not be too obvious at first glance, but the performance differences definitely are. While both versions have screen-tears throughout the whole demo (justspaztik won't be picking up either of them), the PS3 version simply has a lot more, and with a lovely bonus: fluctuating frame rate (bundled with unappealing judders.) See it for yourself:

Simply disgusting! It's already 2012 and yet we're still seeing these shoddy results. Unbelievable… CyberConnect2 definitely is going straight to my black list.
But hey, at least the game isn't anything special. Those who have already played the demo should know, the gameplay is a joke. I might rent this game to check story (as that seems to be the only thing that interests me) but really, unless the demo is doing an utterly horrible job at representing the final game, you won't ever see me picking this game up.

Simply disgusting! It's already 2012 and yet we're still seeing these shoddy results. Hell, these guys are even lazy enough to use the same highly compressed pre-rendered footages (filled macroblocking artifacts) for both version, instead of utilizing the extra storage space of the Blu-ray Disc for the PS3. Unbelievable… CyberConnect2 definitely is going straight to my black list.

@Lens of Truth
Great! Now let's bring out one for Final Fantasy XIII-2, too. Also, I would like to see a Head2Head for Choplifter HD. By the way, I know I requested a Head2Head for Amy a while back, but you guys can forget about it now that I've found out how much of joke that game is.

So far PS3 is not putting up much of a fight. But then you can't get xbox corvette performance from a pinto ps3.

Based on screen shots not much in it but based on the Japanese site Bloodios linked it's a pretty shoddy port on the PS3.

So I'm guessing the KOF and Rayman H2H aren't coming? I could understand if they weren't but it sucks not having a definite answer.

pretty close to a tie if it wasn't for the screen tearing in the 3rd picture (PS3).
