Biohazard 5 Demo Comparison

[Biokk]

any news on when us Europeans will be getting the demo? Im itching to buy a PS3 but have semi convinced myself to wait and buy both the console and Resi 5 on release date..however, i would probably buy the PS3 now if i thought i could get the demo!!!!

Even if I could, I wouldn't go hosting a 1GB file. Thats just asking for trouble.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't sit well with Capcom either, demo or not. Just look at how they handled the Japanese 360 demo, I'm pretty sure they'd attempt to come down on the site hard if we were giving out links.

I can't, because afaik there is no reliable way to rip a PS3 game, let alone a weirdo one like this with a hybrid bluray VIDEO / bluray GAME structure. Even if I could, I wouldn't go hosting a 1GB file. Thats just asking for trouble.

Dot50cal, can you rip the BD demo disc, upload it, and give us the DL link?

Please! =))

The one screen out of all of them which interests me is the executioner... the 360 version clearly has a lot of detail, but the PS3 version ends up looking more like a painting due to the soft details and edgings. Other than that, aside from the odd thing here and there, I like the 360 version more.

If this is like DMC4 though, the filtering on the PS3 means aside from a little softness the screens make the comparisons very clear, but in motion far harder to tell. Given Dot makes this comment as well, I'm not surprised.

Will be interested to see how much of this does and doesn't still stand come March.

I like the 360 screens better but i'm still getting the PS3 version cause I will still be able to play it when my 360 gets the RROD. lol

I got the PS3 demo off of isohunt and burnt it to a bd-rom. It installs perfectly, but audio is a bit glitchy.

You were able to download the torrent? Every time I try it always stops at 72.9

Prefer the look of the 360 version myself.

EDIT: I tried to burn it to DVD and it doesn't work. I get "Unsupported Media" icon/text.

Both versions look pretty sweet in my opinion. I prefer the look of some of the 360 screens and others on the PS3. Some just look 'different' not necessarily better or worse...
But I also question the point of doing the comparison at this time. It makes sense to analyze the retail versions but the demos released 3 months before the final versions..? Whatever, it's still interesting.
Comparing the scenes in motion will be interesting too. Didn't DMC4 have motion blur on PS3 but not 360? Are there similar differences with RE5?

Another thing you should note is that I took these shots through component video output on both consoles.

I'm no technical expert but why didn't you use HDMI? I thought that would produce the best results on both consoles.

(...) I miss the days when people played games to have fun and didn't bicker over consoles and exclusivity and other bullshit of the like.

Couldn't agree more! I simply can't understand all the fanboy bullshit... I love my Wii and i want an X360 but it's not like they're flawless or anything like that! To same people their consoles are almost godlike!

In respect to RE5 i really hope both versions come out as great as possible!

@Dot: I really hope you can dig something out of that (almost) 1GB!

[HOTvirus]

in 2009, the ps3 version will be good too
i hope so...

[Vector]

Sounds like a personal problem

No, just call me old fashioned because I miss the days when people played games to have fun and didn't bicker over consoles and exclusivity and other bullshit of the like.

[Dot50Cal]

Seems to be, but I dont know why its so much larger. I really want to dig around. God knows what kind of stuff is on it
