Now that people have had more time to test and collect games for all the different platforms, GameTrailers has also been able to spend more time watching people play on both. That's why there's yet another graphical comparison test here, and this time, it's for Sega's Virtua Tennis 3 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Like our previous coverage of the Elder Scrolls IV graphical comparison, this quick video also takes a look at the similarities and differences between the two consoles using similar moments of play. In this case, you'll be watching two players taking their rackets to the court in a friendly game of tennis, complete with comparisons of the character models as they wipe the sweat off their foreheads. |

Hard to say if it's due to HDR or just plain overall darker. As far as everything else goes, it seems to be identical...however I don't think this game looks that great in the first place....damn PS3 holding back games...
Exactly the same, and the 360 version monitor was adjusted far to low on brightness or contrast a stupid point to miss when comparing Two systems.
I wouldnt buy this for the PS3 (if I had one) due to there being no online which is a massive difference unless it only costs half the price of the 360 version.
It's just plain stupid to compare the two using compressed video.

You are a tool, the monitor has absolutely NOTHING to do with the darkness. They capture the video BEFORE it goes to the monitor! Amazing....
Ps3 is lighter and the easy way you can tell which is better by looking at he hair
At one point it shows them walking away showing there side faces and there hair.
xbox360 has high detail but it looks too much like all one peice on the back and 0.9% plastic
ps3 Also has high detail but if you look close you can almost c each individual strand of hair and the back also has strands so it doesnt look like one peice.
And you cant just look at the vid once and say "o they both look the same" or "o i cant tell" you have to observe it MULTIPLE times to tell the difference even if it is on a low resolutuin
"Ps3 is lighter and the easy way you can tell which is better by looking at he hair"
Don't be silly. If you have to go to such lengths to spot a difference and, even then, only see it after multiple viewings, then there's not enough to say one is better than the other. They ARE the same.
Yes, her hair looks slightly sharper in the PS3 version, but how much of that is that due to the brightness levels in the video? How much is due to the encoding? How representative is this when the rest looks the same? Are there specific times when certain little details look better on the 360 version?
Whatever it is, these versions are obviously VERY close to eachother, so it's nonsense to declare a winner from a video with less detail than the game itself.
wtf are you talking about...both versions are online...
"wtf are you talking about...both versions are online..."
The PS3 version does not support online play.

(Change the plus character to equals in that link to make it work. Not sure why this happens on QJ)
"The only slight downer about VT3 is what we're not getting - there's no online play. For reasons known only to Sega and Sony and the tea lady who eavesdropped in on the meeting, the online play featured in the Xbox 360 version is missing in PS3 Virtua Tennis 3...."
I cant tell the difference. In motion i imagine unless one has a frame rate issue you wouldnt notice a difference.
these comparisons are always here and there.
no matter which version is better it always comes down to sales, and even if 50 percent of total 360 users buy this game and all of the ps3 users buy this, the ps3 is still short due pretty much small market compared to 360. the ps3-360 battle will really start when bought consoles have almost the same number of user base. by next year both maybe near the 15 to 20 million userbase, by then we can see whose dominating and who's flopping.
Looks the exactly same thing to me, however, the Xbox360 seems to have more realistic shadows and all, but thats about it.
First off I just want to say I own both a x360 and PS3 so im not out to slam one or the other. But from this video it look like the PS3 version doesnt do a lot of close-ups where as the 360 goes all out. It looks to me that the PS3 is trying to cover up bad textures and framerate. But just like every other 360 to PS3 comparison I have to say that the contrast and overall light looks slightly better on the PS3. In the end, the visual display doesnt matter, I'm buying the 360 version because I have a lot more friends on xbox live than I do on PSNetwork. Don't get me wrong, I do still love my PS3!!!! When it comes to multi-platform games with online, i will probably always buy the 360 version, I am not impressed with PSNetwork at all, resistance has way too much lag for me, I dont ever get lag on XBL. It's just that, right now, xbox live provides a much better online experience. I really hope sony pulls through with PSN. I keep looking at my shiny new PS3 and I get excited thinking about whats to come, but then again I also love my 360. I guess I'm just a gamer at heart, not some silly fanboy who throws all his eggs in one basket.
My dsl service is not that fast and I get no lag so far on PS3 games.
Honestly i don't know how you came to that conclusion from the video. I'm pretty sure the PS3 version is identical. It's a very short video and it only displays about 4 second of proper comparative video at the start with the match intro.
My PS3 lags quite badly at times especially on Resistance, but my old xbox1 runs fine with Halo.I suppose thats the difference One I pay for and One I dont.
I have yet to experience any lag on Resistance or any other ps3 game online. They are solid as hell and I definitely can't say that about games on xbox live. Im not trying to hate on xbox live because it is a good online system but my over all experience with actual online gameplay is better on my ps3.
Thats weird because I have really bad lag on the PS3 as well mainly on Resistance but I have NO lag on my 360, different for everyone it seems ?.
I've had no lag on PS3 so far but had quite a bit of lag on Rainbow6 and GOW on the 360.
good work... you made one of the most intelligent points we're ever likely to hear in the 360 - PS3 console war .... if only there were more out there who "got it".

WTF U TALK ***** RESISTANCE HAS NO LAG AT ALL AND YES U DO GET LAG ON XBL BECAUSE I OWN A 360 AND U GET LAG IN RAINBOW SIX VEGAS,GEARS OF WAR, SAINTS ROW,GRAW 2, I CUD CONTINUE BUT WHERE DERS ONLINE DER WILL BE LAG IN SUM MATCHES SO DONT TALK ***** U R NOT UNBIASED
Amazingly close considering each version was developed by a different studio. Sumo developed the 360 version and AM2 developed the PS3 version.
I think I like this game. The demo grew on me and the mini games look really fun.
Unfortunately for PS3 owners no online game play, ouch. What's up with that?
No online gameplay for the PS3, there is all the difference I need to see.
PS3's doesn't have online on alot of games because Sony doesn't host the servers for their "free" online. The game makers have to host and maintain their servers (similar to PC games). Microsoft hosts servers for X360 games, that's why every one is online (everyone that it makes sense to be) and that's why we pay for it.
Wrong Microsoft do NOT host the servers on the 360 (I wish they did)
Actually MS host all the P2P hosting except for EA which demanded that they use their own crappy laggy servers.
I couldn't tell much of a difference.
for once we agree!
Well the only difference I can see is that the 360 version is a little darker.
Its darker because their monitor settings are set that way its NOTHING to do with the consoles, sighhhhhhhhhhh

You are a tool, the monitor has absolutely NOTHING to do with the darkness. They capture the video BEFORE it goes to the monitor! Amazing....
none
And YET when YOU play the game, you are ABLE to adjust the lighting and contrast yoruSELF.. yso your point is moot... The 360 version would be grightened on anyones monitor...
WOW you just don't get what he said do you? No wonder you are a MS fanboy....adjusting the brightness still doesn't take away from the fact that is is not as clean/clear. Go to GameTrailers and watch the HD version of it.the PS3 flows better, sharper, crisper, shadows more realistic and the background isn't blurred as on the 360.
But this is all a moot point since when real games that use the power of the PS3 are made by DEV's then a true comparison can be made. But that is the problem most DEV's only care about how much money is to be made and not the final product....
360's is darker........ don;t forget the ps3's only been out for a couple of months......ps3 rocks
Development started at the same time, so what's your point?
Let me give you a point. How about development started a year ago for the 360 and just for a few months on the ps3 (not talking about VT3...in general). Hows that for a point?. Now what is your point?
Actually development started simultaneously on both platforms in April 2006. Haven't you heard of dev kits?
the ps3 version is brighter than the 360
and whoever doesnt notive tha then bloody hell
Looks pretty much identical, minus the darker lighting in the 360 version. The PS3 version had more defined shadows, but that is not to say it's better or more realistic, but it just seemed to from this video.
Oh Oh! The PS3 uses all caps in "EXHIBITION MATCH" while the 360 doesn't. I think that's the hugest thing.
For me it's not the graphics thats the big issue. If you want to go on line there is only one option and that's the 360 is the only one. Lord knows why the PS3 doesn't do this, but hey I got both so the 360 gets my vote
ps3 YOU CAN SEE THE FACES A LOT MORE CLEARLY AND BETTER HAIR TEXTURES
^
Lol. Just ... lol.
To see the real graphical differences you have to stop looking at the characters and start looking at the detales off the the sides and in the stands. you can clearly see the ps3 version has a chrisper image, with more detale.
What you guys need to see if this game on a 360 running on a HDTV and on a PS3 running on a HDTV right infront of you so you can see it first hand instead of some crappy compressed video from GameTrailers.
There seems to be more compression squares on Xbox360....How the hell are you guys gonna compare anything on a youtube video???
Plus this game is a DVD game! It's like getting a CD-ROM game for a PS2. I would expect this game on a Xbox360 but not for a PS3. I'm not buying this game, and I'm not buying Virtua Fighter 5(also another DVD game).
You mean a DVD9 Dual layer game right(8.9 gig) DVDs are NOT all One size get that in your head..
Is amusing to see people got to little details to be able to discern wich one is better, the real question is is $200.00 bucks better? I don't think so. For me both version looks identical, but the PS3 version lost some points because the lack of online play in a game that is going to be a blast to play online. I'm going with the 360 version in this one.
Another PS3 game that looks slighty better than the 360 version, yawn.
Lets get some real facts here, what QJ should do is get some top quality video of both systems running the game(without saying which one is from which version) and then let everybody vote for say One week on which version looks better, at the end of that week QJ could then say which version was running which video and look at the results I bet it would be 50 50.....
its the PS3 that has better quality. Yes, their both equal in game play, but look beyond and when they touch their forehead, the PS3s actualy touch as the X360s dont, and the croud in X360 are not as vive as in PS3
PS3 wins!
