I got to see (not play) a lot more games on the PS3 at other stores but it was nothing spectacular if you discount the fact that the screen was a Sony Bravia. It was good no doubt but not saliva-dripping, eye-glazing, mind-searching-for-which-FD-to-break kind of good.
On a related note, I played a lot on the XBox360 consoles at these stores and ended up buying one because the price was right. |
Xezas - The reason why you couldn't see the improvement is because in all probability the games you played was designed for the PS2 & was being played on PS3 which in turn does not allow the game to fully exploit the console's full capabilities due to its dated design.
Right now due to the PS3 just being launched there are very few games which have been developed specifically for the console & hence you might find it hard to spot the difference. But once the dedicated games hit the market, then it can display its full potential. As for the 360 well since it's been around for a while it has dedicated games developed for it & so they exploit the console's abilities to the full & hence the better performance.
Or maybe the PS3 is not as good enough, I think time will tell on this one.
As for me it's going to be the PS3 for a simple reason : Gran Turismo 4 & Gran Turismo HD & Gran Turismo 5
