Another comparison of Tecmo’s oppai physics simulator Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 reveals what many are hailing as the apparent complete graphical superiority of the PS3 version to the Xbox 360 version, already scrutinised in some detail previously.

The game itself is due October.

Possibly the Greek lettering was omitted for good reason from the Xbox 360 version’s title…

    Just wanted to thank again for the people who are stupid enough to buy an Xbox for beta testing another cool game for us, and to make sure we get a nice finished game for PS3 released.
    And for those who claim the xBox one look's nicer I bet you would have choosen the other picture if they would have said that PS3 is on top.

    These comparisons are usually kinda close, but man that is a huge difference. The PS3 managed to look vastly better even when it was rendering shadows. The sky and water looks better as well.

    BTW, did they really need to switch to simpler objects for the 360 to run?

    360 version is older right?

    Duh ya the 360 version had a 1 year exclusive, doesn't really have anything to do with the fact that the Xbox360 is using a DVD, with low textures. Every Xbox360 game has that. Nothing Xbox360 has even remotely comes close to anything PS3 exclusive. Also do you think they made the PS3 game in one year? They took the time to do what they couldn't on the Xbox360 and put it on the PS3.

    Clearly the Xbox360 can't stream as well as the PS3 either. It's doing shadows, water, sky, bump mapping, specular lighting. The Xbox 360 is doing flat textures and some seriously old graphics. I mean that looks like some seriously old shit.

    Nothing comes close to PS3 exclusives? What about Alan wake, Kingdom under fire 2, Gears of war 2 etc.? That's PS3 fanboy bullshit to pretend they have a much better system (it's better but not that much better). Games like Lost odyssey, DOA 4, Mass effect etc. all look good but most important Crysis 2 can run on both systems. Why do PS3 fanboys use games that aren't even the best graphics as exambples? What I'm trying to say is that PS3 fanboys thought 360 had reached it's peak a year ago yet better looking stuff keep coming out and you know why? Because the 360 can handle it. PS3 will by the end of the generation have better looking games but it's one step up only, like the difference between gamecube and xbox.

    And yes having 1 year difference does matter if they then take that extra time to work on the graphics dipshit *facepalm*.

    Seriously, this is a total different game! We can't compare! I bet this same version can be released on Xbox as well! And, by the way, PS3 in the last period is just a little more lucky than Xbox in graphic terms. Still the Xbox, potentially, IS stronger than PS3: 360 has a unificated RAM (can, I said CAN, have better textures e major loading speed) PS3 has two 256 MB rams, one is used by the processor, the other one by the GPU, and the GPU will NEVER be able to use the same quantity of ram as the processor. Still Multicore is supported by GPU, and, in games like Alan Wake (and I bet this one too) different cores (two or more, I think) still can realize greath things (in graphical terms). By the way, I do not have the necessary competences in this things xP

    these are stupid comparasions
    xbox360 version is years old compared to the ps3 so of course they'll make superior improvments.
    this bashing of ninja gaiden game is retarded. if you want graphics comparasions on new games for both consoles do any thats are simultaneously released.

    Not really. Two years ago they had normal mapping and its used quite often(look at any early next-gen titles. In fact heavy using of normalmapping is almost the only signature of early next-gen games). And in the 360 screengrabs shown above they're not using it for environment at all, which shows only that the developers were not good enough. And they're not even using specular mapping. Fail that is. That said, two years difference could've factored the change of the decision of the environment from day to night, so that's acceptable. But no. not the lack of normal and worst of all no spec mapping.

    Starting wars is the only thing these uploaders have to look foward to in their pathetic lives.

    How can you compare the two when PS3 version came out an entire YEAR later? I understand that Sankaku is full of PS3 fanboys but this is ridiculous. Keep trolling and defending your PS3 on your Microsoft computer.

    You can keep saying PS3 is superior, but we all know M$ still owns Sony.

    PC fags bring up a good point. Even an AMD PC with a Phenom II 965, 8GB DDR3, and two HD5870 graphics cards stomps the fuck out of a PS3 in every way. Move over to Intel's best offering and the difference in performance between the PC and the current generation of consoles is laughable. I don't think anyone would deny that a PC is capable of humming along at resolutions that would cripple both the PS3 and the 360.

    But then ask yourself, how much would that cost?

    An Xbox 360 and PS3 cost far far less then any ridiculous rig like you're suggesting.

    I'm a PCfag myself btw, I do realize though that PCs rape consoles by costing a whole helluva lot more...

    I have to wonder... Who's in a worse position? Artefact for constantly pulling posts like this, or you idiots for biting into his comments and whining about how biased he is? If you take all the crap off the discussions about this graphical difference, one thing comes to light: He's having his fun, while you idiots whine and rage... And still, even though more than a year old, Ninja Gaiden 2's graphical flair is crushed under the PS3 version's quality... Because Team Ninja just wanted to make it look BETTER... Take that like men, you fucking whiners while the biased webmaster laughs his ass off. Excuse me now, while I go and play the demo again to have some FUN, something you seem to forget games are for.

    I've not bothered with upgrading consoles since my Dreamcast and original Xbox, which both still sit under my old TV back at home. I didn't get a 360 because of the questionable reliability, and I didn't get a PS3 because of the hidious pricetag at release (and the fake pre-rendered tech-demos). And now I'm in my final year of uni, so although the prices have dropped considerably since launch, now it is the case that I don't have much time for gaming anyway. Think I'll just sit out this generation and see what comes next.

    PC has more than enough on offer to keep me busy until then.

    Obviously that idiot does not know about why the sudden market shift from AMD to Intel.

    Also he/she/it does not know how to read the facts about the Cell processor and its main objectives. Fortunately, its not your boss in your company because the company will go under within a week.

    Well "it" has been used to really put emphasis of the fact that the poster (@2:55) has little to no brain processing power.

    It may have the best com as compared to any of us but be assured his brain is no better than a P1.

    Actually, you don't need a "ridiculous" rig to overpower any current console. It will usually cost more, but it's always a rather large improvement, and for a smaller cost than you may suggest (not to mention that it can be upgraded for less than getting a next-gen console, supposing you build a decent one in the first place).

    By shiny blur, do you mean bloom? A special effect that takes processing power to do? Something the Xbox360 couldn't apparently do?

    Now then dont be silly,i expect EVERY BODY knows that bloom is a "cheap mans" HDR lighting(High Dynamic Range Lighting) The Wii uses Bloom lighting in SPADES on Mario galaxy.Sony fanboy,youve admittided the the ps3 is using the less proccesor intensive lighting(bloom is very easy on the procesor)and guess what the 360 is using? yep HDR.PS3..ONCE AGAIN, FAIL
