Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (> 3 Months ago)

second, to throw in another odd twist. there's more than just GS claiming that its the other way around (about the PS3 having crippling framerate issues), and now IGN has actually removed their comments on the framerates (at least in the body of their review, they still mention it on their scorecard, but they mention framerate issues in the 360 score card too)
STREET FIGHTER 4, BRING IT ON!
Let me tell you what entertainment is: Violence. Sex. Friendship. Death. Surprise. Betrayal. Dancing.
the PS3 has just another gamma and colorprofile than the 360 and any cheap TV can do the deserved adjustments.
just ask any pro photographer how he is setting up his camera... all of them do the work afterwards on the pc and try to get as much detail as possible first with the SLR cam. too much contrast and you loose those precious details in the bright areas of a picture etc. so in this regard the PS3 is even better than the 360 that comes built in with high contrasts etc.
let me show you what mags show to us:

the users: OMG the PS3 sucks, look at that shitty contrast!!! 11
now this is photoshoped, only functions that any cheap TV can deliver aswell (more contrast, less brightness, a bit more color)

I hope this example helps to understand that the PS3 has no disadvantage at all in any game with contrast, color etc.
Interesting.
BlimBlim, Tyran.
think again... what was that with the poor contrasts on the 360 via VGA? what about the preinstalled contrast settings you can choose from via HDMI?
yes very interesting how ignorant some ppl are... any you know too that AC does not look like the IGN screens on your TV... its only the screengrabber defaults that are causing the dull PS3 images.
again why does no pro SLR cam have sharpening and overrated contrast? yes because its up to the artist to choose - all others buy some cheap handycams that have everything preinstalled but are not as good to adjust afterwards.
all the pics show is that AC on the 360 has better contrast (out of the box).
No idea how the contrast in other PS3 games is, but I assume it's remarkebly better. So do you really want to change your tv's settings for every game you play?

you take screengrabs directly from the console - that has nothing to do with the picture you see on your well adjusted TV set. if the 360 screengrabber or whatever hardware you use to grab games is adjusted this way - why should that be the consoles fault?
But why should i keep changing my settings for the ps3 and 360 ? sod that, 360 overall has a better finish i find, personally.
STREET FIGHTER 4, BRING IT ON!
its not a console related problem only - any image device has its profiles! we have to life with it - thats why the more HDMI inputs the better, because you can't have the same comfort of preset adjustments with a HDMI switch!
it's just sad that the PS3 is looking that dull everywhere - imagine ratchet would be that dull!? no way!
I think the elite is on par with the PS3 image quality (not speaking about games) the VGA 360 wasn't at all with its dull and unsharp picture that couldn't be adjusted on most TV's (no color, no sharpening functions on VGA on most TV's)
sure, it the lower contrast on the pics can also be because of the screengrabber working with different settings for the ps3.
anyway... can't wait to play the game. :)
best regards,
ScarJack
if I would play the PS3 version I would scream for a gamma patch by ubi in this case!
but I don't think so - new dynasty warriors shot:

First you say it's the color profiles on the consoles, then games. pick one? Or is it just that the developers haven't actually checked what the game looks like on both machines? They just rolled the dice on PS3 and it came out kinda crappy?
I for one, think that the original looks better than the one you photoshopped. meh.
To me there is so little difference, that it doesn't really matter. However framerates do and I hear the PS3 version is a bit sluggish here and there...

edit: sorry I mixed the photos, I like the photoshopped indoors photo more than original. Photoshopped outdoors is still meh.

and it can be the consoles profiles or the games. both is possible - its just a fact that the consoles don't have the same default profiles.
gamespot says the PS3 version runs better...
""There are few differences between the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. PS3 owners are blessed with a slightly more solid frame rate, although the 360 version features a little more contrast in the lighting, so it's pretty much a wash. But regardless of which platform you go with, you'll have an amazing and unforgettable game. Assassin's Creed is the kind of game you tell your friends about, and one that should be in your collection."
ign first wrote the PS3 has framerate issues but then deleted it again!?

this is exactly another story that bugs me soooo much ... reviews are just useless, some mag says this, another something else... we need even more demos to try it out ourselfs.
Developers should either better optimise the game engine or remove unnecessary stuff from the game.
