Holy Jesus. PS3 is leagues ahead. I’m very surprised by this, so far as to say the Xbox is quite bad. I expected maybe equal parity from the PS3, but this is something else. Textures missing entirely from the Xbox version.
Not just texture but also lighting and shadows are either missing or muted too. Its more evident in page 2.
Off topic but the “Rollover to see the Difference” just wont work for me in chrome.
Honestly it doesnt matter which one looks better as both look like ass, and its not the consoles fault this time. DMC uses overly muddled textures, has overly tinted ambiance for no reason, framerate drops to the teens… I could go on and on. For a fun time, look up DMC4 and compare the screen shots to DmC and be shocked how much worse DmC looks.
All of this and I havnt even touch the gameplay. This game is a mockery of the devil may cry franchise. the framerate alone is painful, but the D to SSS in 1 attack, the forced cutscenes, the 2edgy4you dante, the horrible story, the floating bodies in the cutscenes, the removal of styles, the weak weapons, the writing… And to top it all off im not going to even bring the leaked ending into this where this game is a tie in to DMC2 and the world is run on the tears of orphans
On the other hand X360 is leagues ahead of PS3 in PERFORMANCE.
360 Avg:29.996fps Min-Max:29.5-30.0fps Tear: 0.037%( 0.030%)
PS3 Avg:28.336fps Min-Max:20.0-30.0fps Tear:16.223%(15.405%)
No SCREEN TEAR and no DROPS to 20fps on X360
So take your poison – ugly or jerky.
Hope that full version will cure X360 from missing textures and PS3 will get rid of screen tear and gets optimised.
Again the xbox 360 wins with the best gameplay (framerate), LoT posting photos without loading the textures on the xbox 360 version, not counting the PS3 hood of many visual effects because of this game where the textures seem to be higher quality .
Xenon GPU> GPU RSX, simple as that.
PS3 leads this one. Somethings are missing in Xbox 360 version.
Missing textures and low-res textures all over the place on the x-box. It’s only the demo though, no? Sure the final product will NOT be this bad…
What’s up with how the shadow is implemented in the PS3 version? All that banding, just like how it was back in Enslaved, gosh, these guys just don’t learn.
By the way, folks, the PS3 version having a SLIGHT advantage in the visual department doesn’t mean much when its performance is VASTLY inferior to its Xbox 360 counterpart. Those who have already played the PS3 version of the demo should know what I’m talking about (unless of course, they either have high tolerance or simply in serious denial). The frame rate would madly fluctuates during cutscenes (because Ninja Theory thinks its better to keep the V-sync enabled all the time here and have the screen judders like mad, which is quite similar to how the PS3 version of Mass Effect 3 was.) During gameplay though, V-sync is thankfully disabled, but the screen does tear like a raging beast, and even that doesn’t stop it from dropping frames (and it gets quite ridiculous during boss fight.) The Xbox 360 version, on the other hand, runs smoothly at what seems to be a constant 30fps and screen-tear might as well be non-existent.
Seriously, ever since Ninja Theory went multi-platform, the PS3 versions of their games are no better than garbage, and comparing this to Enslaved: Odyssey To The West, I can only conclude it’ll just get worse as time goes on.
Thinking back, Heavenly Sword was probably only looks that fine because not only there was just one single platform to worry about, they even built an engine just for that game (just so they can scrap it later…) Well, suppose if the PS3 was the lead-platform, even if the game is powered by the Xbox 360-favored Unreal Engine 3, the result probably would’ve been satisfying anyway, but of course, they couldn’t help but do it the other way, they’re Ninja Theory after all.
Supporting these assholes will only encourage them to shit out more shit-ports (do excuse the filthy language.)
Still… the truth is that the X360 version of this demo sucks badly compared to the PS3 one. No need to make a flooding of words to try to revert this simple fact.
@Michelasso
Denial is a scary thing. If only that was possible to revert the FACTS presented in these videos:
PS3:
youtu.be/n93MM9P7L9Y360:
youtu.be/rdrjK_afvb4These analysis videos were presented by a popular Japanese comparison sight. It goes without saying that the Japanese are well-known to support their own console. After all, there is a reason why the Xbox 360 is selling so poorly over there after all. But even these people know well enough to realize that it is stupid to hide the fact their system is getting this garbage of port. The PS3 version sucks badly compare to its Xbox 360 counterpart.
Ahem…”comparison site”… Lens of Truth… I seriously need that Edit button.
Nice information, that really explain why I saw so many tear line in DMC Demo…that is worst kind of screen tearing I ever seen and even worst than dead island
@BLOODIOS
Funny… Even after reading all that bullshit, all I saw was, “blah, blah, blah”!!!
@MoneySha
Oh? Says the guy who could never stop spouting bullshit.
Whatever…
As a PS3-only owner, I simply feel that it’s bullshit to support a developer that shoved a huge, long string of shit into your mouth, as though there simply isn’t anything wrong with that. Sorry, the fact of me playing this shit port while my friend, who lives close by, having no problem playing the other version on his Xbox 360 is simply pissing me off. I want the only version I can play to be decent (some parity for God’s sake) and if it’s not then I’m going to talk about it, unlike some folks who would just turn a blind eye because they feel obligated to give Sony hourly rim-job. I mean, for Christ’s sake, there are developers out there who have produced better looking games that also look and play great on the PS3…
So, I have eventually downloaded and played the demo (DMG isn’t my kind of game and my connection sucks). What screen tearing? I didn’t notice anything. Unless it was there but “hidden” in a way. The frame rate looked good to me as well. I don’t know if you people have very sensible eyes, or it is because I’ve got used to much worse (read: Skyrim) but the demo was perfectly playable, without annoying disruptions.
Bloodios is right regarding the demo and the ps3′s performance on it.
It’s only a demo though and all that screen tearing that destroys the ps3 version might be fixed in the retail version.
Ps3 fanboys better hope it is or this h2h is only going one way(and not in sony’s favour lol).
The missing texture’s on these 360 shots are just slow loading textures, a common problem with UE3 on the 360 especially.
We’d better wait for the retail version to see what happens, but it’s probably going to be another 360 win
I don’t know about a 360 WIN, but there is no way this is the finished product for the 360. That lighting, textures, sharpness, lack of shadows can’t be that bad in final press. It couldn’t be.
Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. I expect a dramatic imptovement on the 360 version once all is said and done. The CCTV camera is obviously late texture pop-in.
@ANDROID123
I think everyone who’s been on this site long enough knows, LOT is notorious for shooting screens while textures aren’t even fully loaded on most screen shots but, to claim this for all screen shots is rediculous; even for you, Android….
36 people actually voted for xbox360 version, and 51 voted for Tie !!! hahaha xbox360 gay fanboys always leave their trademark of stupidity in this website! 51 of them are actually choose the smartest option tie! These people are really dumb and immature!
Your comment was dumb and immature! Is there really any need for the gay bash or calling people stupid for having their own opinion.
Maybe they actually played both versions of the demo and have saw the terrible tearing and framerate drops of the PS3 version compared to the 360 version. Maybe they know that some of these shots of the 360 version were taken before texture pop in. Maybe they make an informed decision instead of opening their mouths and spouting out stupid nonsense.
It can look like gold but if it runs like shit then its useless, especially in a game like this where timing can mean everything. Enslaved got away with it as it wasn’t really a combo heavy game but for DmC its got to be spot on and can’t be stuttering all over the place.
As others have already said hopefully these problems are sorted out for both retail versions. I would rather have this on PS3 as to me its still a PS game, even though i did get 4 on 360.
Sorry guys but there are 2 videos on youtube where they tested the performance for each version and the ps3 version drops frames regulary and has around 35% screen tearing while the xbox version has no screen tearing and is locked to 30fps
I just played the demo there ain’t no screen tearing what are you watching a 2010 E3 demo or anoucment trailer.
@bulmeichum
You have such good eyes.
All the more to see threw the bullshit.
Sorry PS3 fangirls, you can polish a turd all you want, it’s still a turd.
Another X360 win.
So what you’re saying is… you prefer shinier turds?
the first page makes it look like a definite win for the PS3 but the second page looks like everything gets flipped (first page textures, draw distance, shadows, anti-aliasing, ect. all look better on the ps3, but on the second page it’s the xbox that seems to have the better draw distance, textures, shadows (especially the close-up of the face has some major shadow issues on PS3), and slightly better AA.)
did the images get flipped or is it that the game has bad spots on both systems?
According to the comments the 360 apparently has the lead in performance, even so, i’m still getting this for the PS3. Not like i’d buy a DmC game on a Microsoft platform. lol
Why buy this game in the first place? *LOL*
Bloodios”Ive tried the ps3 demo of this game,and i didnt see the massive amount of screen tearing that you talk about’or the huge framerate dips for that matter,I Will say that i used to have problems like this with my ps3 slim after transfuring data from my fat ps3 because i wanted the slim,im saying this because maybe you have the same problem i was getting,I had loads of freezes and framrate issues,And i tried system restore and another thing on the ps3 fix menue’cant remember its name,Anyway the best thing i found to completly fix my ps3 was a full system formatt,it took about a day but it was well worth it,my ps3 runs like new now.Looks good on 360 but better on ps3.
Alright, I’ll be sure to do just that. That said, I honestly am reluctant to play the demo again. I didn’t particularly like the different control feels (and I never really like the game to begin with.)
Bloodios!correction’sorry mate’it was system restore i used and not the straight up formatt,in the system restore do the tougher formatt on system restore,but if you have formatted it straight up you can download the ps3 info files from psn.com’it wont take long to download and put onto your ps3.
Lenz!I have to say this AGAIN!Your voteing system suck’s arss.
Lens don’t install games to their 360 HDD so it might be slow loading textures. Still PS3 version looks that much nicer and the 360 version in addition to all the other issues looks really washed out.
But as Bloodios has already pointed out the performance is completely in favour of the 360 version. I’d avoid this game on PS3 unless your a massive DMC fan or don’t mind loads of screen tear and a fluctuating framerate.
I don’t think installation is the issue here. This is only a demo after all, it should already be running off the HDD.
looks can be deceiving, I know that enslaved was piss poor on ps3 performance wise, so I think I’ll wait and see on this one, one things for sure team ninja are incapable of having a game run without screen tear, heavenly sword which I loved was marred by it, still maybe a bit of polish and it could be OK, but I’m waiting it out before I commit.
You people do know that over half these pitchures are off the cut seens which are video and not in game if you have played the demos you will know this . I have played both and the xbox is the defo winner it runs perfectly the ps3 tears up and slows down badly anyone saying it doesent is lieing it’s that simple just try the demo you will see .
One last thing remember all the ps3 fans getting excited about the borderlands 2 head to head because cut seen shots were used and not the game it’s self it’s the same thing here ps3 does better video we know that but it don’t mean shit to a game . this site just gets ps3 fans confused and thay cry win just to end up looking stupid I mean look at the votes if any of these people have played both demos you would feel abit of a numb nut voting ps3 .
Yeah’i was excited about borderlands two”and although there was some big screen taring on both versions the ps3 tore more,But there wasnt a massive dfferences between them,And Oblivion”if anyone looks stupid its you because to suggest that us ps3 fans cry when we got such great games on our console is obserred,So if its anyone whos crying all the time its you xbox fanboys who need to get a life thinking that the xbox 360 is better than a ps3 lmao:}and before you call me a fanboy i want you to know i own both systems and like them both,but the ps3 is far far better in my opinion,
I own both xbox and ps3 and xbox is a far far better console in my opinion so opinions don’t mean shit . and xbox fan boys thinking its better than ps3 means they need to get a life you are a typical ps3 fanboy if you don’t agree that ps3 is better you are sad people like you make ps3 owners look like compleat big headed fools and lets face it 99% of multiplats look and run better on xbox so could you explain how it’s so much better I have a ps3 and your talking shit son .
Can someone bring in a translator to translate this derpy language?
Oblivion”Calm down fella!you will hurt yourself getting angry like that:}Look your right most multiplats are better on 360 i agree with you on that but not all of them,and secound”you pay 39 pounds 99 for gold’the same price for playstation plus and before you rave about how great the 360 is online and how better it is than the ps3 its not,the only thang thats better is that it has cross game chatt and party chatt,but you can still chatt when playing the same game on ps3″and they have a room chatt as you know because you own a ps3;]and we get CHEAP GAMES,i say cheap because you still pay for the games but after the same fee you pay to xbox you get about 200 pounds of goodies,a mix of games and theams and pics off playstastion,MORE GAMES:}and what do you get off microplop’Nothhin!And dont tell me your ok with that because if any of you xbox guys are i know your talking complete shit!And im gonna say it again!with the ps3 the proof is in the pudding”just look how good its own games look on it!everyone of them tear the 360 graphics apart for looking AWSOME!m8 you stick to your multiplat dreams of them being better because frankly us ps3 owners dont give a crap when we got such beasts of games,dream on xbot dream on.
And there was more than just a screen tear issue with borderlands 2 on ps3 don’t kid yourself your ps3 love and sony cock sucking has made you totally blind and you say xbox fanboys are sad holey shit kid come on.
I would have to say that the ps3 does win this screenshot comparison imo. Having played both versions of the Demo, the 360 appears to perform better. I noticed more screen tearing and more framerate drops on the ps3 version. So far, dmc appears sharper on ps3 but runs smoother on 360. If I were to purchase I’m leaning toward ps3, mostly because I prefer the dual shock for games that have heavy use of the face buttons. This one will be close I’m thinking and gameplay purists may lean 360. Will wait for final versions and then a price drop before I even consider this one. Not super impressive.
Still trying to convince me ps3 is better ok ps3 is better do you feel happy now ? Ps3 is the best console ever made are you feeling better now ?
Im not trying to convince you about anything Oblivion,I just like to put people like you in place when you start disrespecting my favorate console,But look we all know your Butthurts from being raped all the time but you dont have to take it out on us sony gamers just because we got more power and get games if we pay the same fee as xbox!its microsoft you wanna take it out on for screwing you over so much,aaawwww”your bottom must be pretty sore by now aye Oblivion:}
@RICHIE
Why are you waisting your time, arguing with Oblivion34…? This is the same guy who tried convincing people, PS3 couldn’t do god-rays, aoss, anti-aliasing, or full 720p… Even though God of War 3, Uncharted 2 and 3, as well as God of War: Ascension and The Last of Us have debunk these rediculous claims…
So, I really wouldn’t consider anything Oblivion34 say, to be factually, source worthy in the slightest…
Good point Moneysha”i just wanted to pass some time away:}and to be honest i sometimes like the odd trash talk on here with people;}Thats what i like about this site.
Just wanna say i think Bloodios might be on to something here with the awful screen tearing and flickbook framerate on the ps3,sorry for doubting you at first Bloodios,But realy”its a pisstake how developers cant be arssed to take the time with the ps3 and make the game right,I want it for my ps3 not my 360,so if its worse on the ps3 i wont buy it,not even for my 360″so etherway they lost out on a sale,Developers need to understand this.
Isn’t this site about determining which version of the game is best? Instead we get pointless arguments about conse superiority. Anyway, the decision to develop this game using the Unreal engine would se to be advantage 360, since most games developed on this engine tend to favor 360 (though parity has improved dramatically). I’m kinda disappointed that they went with the Unreal engine. Though its capable of some stunning visuals, it also has produced some pretty washed out and lackluster looking games. DmC does r look up to par with other UE games this late in the generation. Still think performance may decide this one. If the hits to performance hurt the gameplay (which I really didnt get that impression from the demo), then 360 probably wins. If gameplay holds up on both, I think ps3 will win based on better visuals…or it a tie based on preference for screan tearing and minor framerate issues (ps3) or slightly less sharper graphics for smoother performance (360). That’s my best guess from playing both demos.
Don’t write off the 360 just yet.
From what I have been hearing in IGN’s review is that the performance on the PS3 is bad. Does anyone remember Enslaved’s PS3 performance issues? Same developer same problem.
Wait for more reviews and comparison videos. Do not just judge the screen shots.
Also, I own both systems and love them equally.
360 wins another game on DF. The face off is up and it’s another 360 victory.
The pc one sounds really good though, 60fps and got a higher score than the console versions in some reviews(which is not often seen).
Game looks half decent.
Jesus Christ guys, you really must be blind, i have all the consoles, im not a fanboy, but seriously, the 360 version of this game looks like f… crap, geez, no textures, no lights, no shadows, blurry as it can be. This reviews are so biased, even the digitalfoundry ones are so bought, Farcry 3 looks millions of times better in ps3 than in 360, i mean i have most of the multiplat games for the 360, but c’mon you really need glasses, only a fanboy will say this crap is better on the 360 and i like to see my games clear and shiny, im not going to exchange sharpness and beauty for 1 or 3 fps, but thats just me, eff that enjoy it in any console you can, and if you have pc and can brag about the unnoticiable 60 biased fps, just do it
“Look at me! I’m not a fanboy, but if you don’t agree with me and what I said then you have problems.”
*LOL*
The Xbox 360 version maybe blurry but plenty of times the PS3 version’s textures take ages to load and what do we see? A huge chunk of disgusting nothingness. Disagree? Eurogamer has screenshots as proof to back that up and what do you have? Golden sacred words!?
You want to see your game clear and shiny, with sharpness and beauty get the freaking PC version. The the eyes might (that’s on freaking huge might) not be able to to differentiate the difference between 30fps and 60fps but that isn’t case for control feedback, and that’s exactly what matters in the first place. And no, PC folks won’t just brag about the frame rate (which can be tweaked to go above 60fps), there are also plenty of other aspects that can be bragged about, like 1080p (or above), no textures pop-in and quick load times that the 7-year-old consoles can only dream achieving…
I have never said that ppl choosing any console over another has problems, i just said that if you can’t see the damn difference between the screen you really need to get a pair of glasses. Most of the times the multiplat crap looks better for the 360, in fact i own a lot of games for 360, just a few for ps3, exclusives and that shit. Personally i don’t trust any site, any review, i use them only for reference, since i have both system and a friend that owns a videogame store i can compare versions myself, and i tell you that this site as well as eurogamer are not as accurate as you really believe. In another terms im not talking about how fantastic the pc is, i know is superior in every graphic aspect vs the consoles nowadays, but it’s also pricey, it’s also uncomfortable for me, i prefer the playability and the comfort of playing in a console, a thing designed for that, games designed for it, games almost always get out for the console version first and some others, really good ones like Red Dead Redemption never see the lights in your precious nerdy pc. Anyway, i came to say it again, if you can’t see that THIS TIME, same that in the farcry 3 screens the PS3 looks better than the 360, yes you have problems…
And im not talking about the damn fps, the control, and all those things, im just talking about playing a game not in pc shiny uber mode, but at least not like drunk mode.
Forget my bad english*
Why are you keep on bringing up Far Cry 3? I’m not even talking about Far Cry 3…
And yes, I do realize that the PS3 version looks better. I even mentioned the Xbox 360 version being blurrier in my previous post. But you’re making it seems much worse than it is. But remember that a lot of time the PS3 version has serious textures pop-in problems, and that is arguably worse than some minimal blurring in the Xbox 360 version. I do suppose if one has an SSD and decided to buy the digital version on the PlayStation Store instead, it would seriously help, but I could care less for the crap. Performance-wise, it’s garbage compared to the Xbox 360 version, and highly irritable to play, just like all of Ninja Theory garbage. But whatever, get any version that pleases it you. I really couldn’t care less about this shit of a game anymore.
Unnoticable 60fps? Bitch please, PC people see the difference between 60fps and 75fps. Heck, you can go even higher. 120Hz monitors and BAM you have 120 fps, granted only if your PC can go that high. The only reason you don’t see the difference is because you’ve gotten used to the 30fps and simply don’t have the experience or knowledge to differentiate between frame rates. There is also an immense difference in input lag, something you no doubt know nothing of. Try commenting on this subject after educating yourself a little bit.
I have PS3 and X360, tried out the demo on both of them.
PS3:
- sharper image
- medium quality shadows
- slightly longer loading screens
- framerate drops (mainly in cutscenes)
- screen tearing (only noticeable when framerate is dropping witch happens not very often).
- minor FPS stuttering during autosave
X360:
- less sharper image (not so blurry as some was saying)
- high quality shadows
- a bit faster loading screens
- a few framerate drops only noticeable in cutscenes
- no screen tearing
- no FPS stuttering during autosave
and that issue with missing texture on surveillance camera is occurring only at that particular moment in the cutscene and is random.
So guys, pick your poison!
The only poison is the PS3. Which stands for “PoisonStation 3″. It’ll poison your mind and turn you into a lifeless husk!
The rollovers don’t work properly on Chrome for me. They are really slow to respond. The sliders work though. I tested Firefox which worked well.
While the Devil May Cry, Xbox users are crying.
Definitive victory.
360 Wins
I just finished having dinner with my XBOX 360 and PS3..I told them that I will give them a reward for making me happy after work. I will buy this game online and feed it to my XBOX 360 because he had a bigger tummy but he is slimmer than my PS3..my PS3 is so FAT with small tummy…
