Sound

With the Xbox 360 and PS3 both supporting excellent surround sound audio there's usually very little difference between multi-format releases in this category, and Vegas 2 is no different. Both games feature the same brilliant directional sounds and superb ambient effects that really immerse you in the game.

Verdict:
This one's a dead heat. We listened to both games back to back, repeatedly, and we couldn't hear a clear winner.

Onto page 3 for a gameplay comparison.

Scabby_Sid	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post ok, the graphics are so similar, that the only noticeable (if very slight) difference is the textures. also the load times, fine, the load times may be faster as PS3 has faster CPU speed, but how long will it take you to join into a game online? my bet is a lot longer that it will on xbox live. and Xbox isn't failure, it is, in fact, a very good system. i could argue that the PS3 "is failure" because of it's pricetag, it's sub-standard online service, lack of decent unique games, hell, i could go on all day! or, i could take the attitude of a PC gamer and say that they both suck in the extreme due to not being able to 3-SLI nvidia 8800 GTs, and run quad-core processors and OC the whole lot.

axe	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post tbh. I can't really comment on the frame rate cus it's only screens, but how would people say it looks the same. The colours on the 360 version is too dark to be honest and gives a much more unrealistic feel to me. Like the black dude on the picture in that room with the tiles are like "shadowy-black" and the room with those servers (on page 6) some of that shit is so dark it looks horrible. PS3 is FAR better!!! Reply

axe	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post @Mexgamer 360 better in lights ??? WTF are you blind. The 360 version is WAY too dark on all pics. and something i forgot in the last post: on the heatvision cam u clearly see that the 360 generates too much color (at least for my taste). look at the edges, too much red there!

Nimesees	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post The 360 version, as usual is about 1 billionth of a percent more crisp and clear, for all you idiot Sony slaves who are claiming that the PS3 images are "way" better, you need to just stop, neither of these are "way" anything beyond the other, they are virtually identicle. You Sony vermin are the scum of gaming seriously. Reply

Netmind	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post On the screenshot where you see the sun, the PS3 graphics looks better.. I must also say on most of the screenshots it looks better.. You guys got HD ready / full HD TV and a HDMI cable for your PS3? I just got that cable and I see BIG difference. I'll do some screenies on the PC version and add it to the comparison pics. Lets see which is better. :) Report Reply

Wongz33	0 0 In response to Article » Go to 's original post I look at the graphics on the PS3 & the Xbox360 and the graphics look the same, but i agree the anti-aliasing on the PS3 looks better. The texture on the PS3 also looks better to me. Reply
