Biohazard 5 Demo Comparison

[Umon Daisuke]

It's the same build for the most part, and there are no real differences between the textures and effects (other than the missing volumetric ones in the cutscenes at present).

The demo is a bit buggier visually on the PS3. I'm not sure about the western demos, but the Japanese one's AA seems to go off or on every time I boot it. When it's off, texture details are as visible as the 360.

So it's safe to conclude that it's qunicunx AA on the PS3, and unless the final version uses a temporal solution like DMC4, the 360 version will have that edge. I'd personally would rather have no AA if my only choice was QAA.

Could you please update the comparison with the PS3 February demo? I can tell you the PS3 captures of the comparison are from a WAY older build. Just asking you because there's some people taking your comparison as gospel.

For example in this picture

360


You can see the PS3 lacks bump maps totally on those metal surfaces

And this is a picture from my crappy cellphone.

I played the PS3 Demo at last the games great but I had to change the controls as close to RE4's ones because when I first played I never lasted 3 mins I was so use to RE4's controls but it's done know but there is one bug problem I sported so fair it's with the Axeman I went into a room where he caint knoof the wall down and I was hope to kill him ther but he went right thought a door that was twice as small as him I try it again and it happen again has anyone else had the same problem.

After playing the PS3 version this morning, I much prefer it. I find the frame-rate drops far less distracting than the screen tearing.

I just had my disk come in. First thing I liked better on the 360 were the controls. Granted those took some getting used to, but I'll probably experiment with the different setups a bit more.

Second...perhaps its just because my tv is newer and has a better screen quality than my brother's, but to me the PS3 picture looks a bit better. Still looks great either way.

Will this contribute anything to the screen-tearing.
I was using the HD cable that came with the 360 (forget what they're called).

Nope, v-sync will have to be enabled in-hardware so the cables make no difference. It's component by the way, and congrats on your new TV. I got another one last year, but I keep a CRT in the corner for old games. What did you end up getting? There are so many great deals where I am that it's tempting to get another one.

Unless you're going to sit 4 feet away like "someone" here, the difference between HDMI and component should be negligible on the 360. Makes quite a bit of difference on the PS3 though, and useful for audio if you have a newer receiver.

the odd thing is that the 360 demo's tearing was nowhere to be seen in SD, or atleast that's the way it was for me, i've played it on both my 24'' SD TV and 21'' PC monitor via VGA. Tearing's obvious in the cutscenes in HD, couldn't spot any tearing during actual gameplay though.

[TheSelfishGene]

I bought a 46" LCD TV today, and finally played the demo on Xbox360.

I really hope they do something about the screen tearing. I wasn't playing over HDMI, because the console is an old unit. Will this contribute anything to the screen-tearing.

As for the gameplay, colour me unimpressed.
RE4 HD. I got killed by the executioner, because I didn't know where to go. And I passed the level first try, it seemed the chainsaw maniac was very forgiving.

Uploading is done

Okay, I'm uploading the file now to my server

After watching the video, I gotta say that I'd prefer the PS3 version. It looks heaps cleaner and way more vibrant.

[Dot50Cal]

As far as I know, there is not

[Duckula]

Is there any way of uploading the PS3 demo? I understand it installs it to the HDD of the PS3 so surely there's a way of getting the files off it.

I'm hoping it'll turn up on the Japanese PSN this week either way.

I've received the ps3 demo today. It's the first time I see spanish menus and text with "Biohazard" title screen instead of "Resident Evil"
Seriously, with all the action is hard to notice all these graphic details, but obviously it would be great if the PS3 version graphics become as good as the xbox360's...
Well... the play experience... enhanced BIO4, as expected. No complains, of course, Bio4 formula is still new, and the old formula was kept for 6 games. But sincerely, I would prefer the possibility of a "1 player without Sheva" mode.
Anyway, There is a lot to be revealed. I can't wait to the release date

[Dot50Cal]

Co-op is really nothing huge to compare. They look like the same screens, only shrunk down. The PS3's framerate takes a bigger hit than the 360's.

i cant wait for my copy of the demo comes in , btw thanks Dot
