Superior PS3 Multiplatform Games

[krae_man]

What were the games where the devs complained and tried to publicly shame Microsoft by saying "buy this game on PS3 if you have both. We have to compress the art assets on 360 to the point they look like shit. Microsoft charges so much extra per disk, we can't afford to put it on more than 2".

I think Rage was one. Was there any others?

All the diesel engine games like bionic commando rearmed and wanted because the engine favors Nvidia GPU. I think shadow of the damned has higher AF but missing motion blur, some may consider that an improvement.

To be fair, barely any games during the 360/PS3 era "performed great". The best you usually could hope for was a locked 30, but most games failed to keep a consistent 30. By far the worst generation for performance.

No wonder we saw many remasters or remakes of those games later cus they didn't deliver their full potentials on those platforms.

Nah, you are right, it's the only console version that lets you play as The Joker(PC version needs a extra file for that).

Ah thanks for confirming it's been years since I played the ps3 version and all subsequent playthroughs had been on pc so wasn't sure if it did or not

I wonder if many devs wish they could go back to that era and, knowing what they know now, re-prioritize performance over visuals or just implement better optimization techniques.

In many cases they were just fighting difficult hardware or were told to push visuals as much as they could while not making the game completely unplayable, in a time of HD transition where the hardware was just about capable of keeping up.

Possibly the worst generation overall for performance taken as a whole. But within a generation N64 took the actual piss with the performance of much of its library. It's shocking to look back on and think it was just accepted for major games to just be running like that.

I've always felt the GTA games were better on PS3 and I have both versions.

DMC4
FF13

GTA4 ran at a higher framerate, higher res and has MSAA on 360 compared to PS3(lower performance overall, lower res, no MSAA but instead a blur filter).

Metal Gear Solid 4 on PS3 just because it came on a single disc...;)

Metal Gear solid collection. You don't get the touch sensitive button controls on the 360 version
