Title: Call of Duty 4!
Post by: BizioEE on October 28, 2007, 10:17:57 AM

Still, as strong as Call of Duty 4 is shaping up to be in the gameplay department, the most immediately impressive aspect is by far its graphics. The PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions all look surprisingly similar, but that\'s not due to one platform being the lead; Infinity Ward personally assured us that development occurred simultaneously on all three platforms, and that there wasn\'t a base system. With that said, the console similarities end when it comes to textures, lighting and resolutions, because those three areas make the PlayStation 3 version definitely excel over the Xbox 360 SKU. Regardless, every console owner will proudly use Call of Duty 4 to showcase their high-definition TV, because COD4 is by far the best-looking console game you will see this year.

I played the CoD4 beta and it looked fine on the Xbox 360. It\'s not amazing, but the gameplay sure is. :)

First time I ever hear such a thing from a developer.

Usually devs seem to find it easier to make the 360 version look better due to its ease at developing for and its flexible memory.

Even the craptastic CoD3 looked better on 360 despite that it wasnt at all anything special visually,

Good news for the PS3 if true

I played the MP already and it looked good. Can only imagine the SP would be as good, if not better.

Both games are going to look identical. Just more fanboy bullshit when they say ones better than the other. Maybe to them the ps3 has better textures, but they developed the damn game so obviously they can pick the game apart. But to the common person itll all look the same.

im just tired of people trying to justify buying one system rather than the other to themselves. People are more excited about thinking the competition is worse rather than just enjoying the damn games

the whole thread was formed just for that reason. not to mention the same person said that COD 4 will be the best looking console game this year...which is just a retarded thing to say

I have a question. What is meant by: the ps3 excell\'s over the 360 in resolutions, because that seems like a non-statement to me, unless the ps3 version is actually displayed in a higher resolution than the 360 version, something I can\'t quite imagine... however, if it were to be true, I\'d like to know the actual numbers....

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. Perhaps they meant texture resolution?

maybe, but that would be weird, since they already mentioned textures...
I sounds a bit like the pr-bullshit from firstparty developers (I realize it\'s not, don\'t get cranked up).

"Infinity Ward personally assured us that development occurred simultaneously on all three platforms..."

I don\'t see any reason to be biased...but yes...the "resolutions thing" is a bit weird...maybe it\'s referred to better textures quality...just a misunderstanding...not sure....

I think so since I read reports that said the PS3 version had better looking textures. I think there are some comparison shots out there.

Anyway, I tested PC demo. The game looks nice but its the same-old CoD game, which hasent changed from CoD1. Wait and see.

../Memo to me, find new Lost Planet screens and compare...Be sure to say.

With that said, CoD4 was gorgeous on my PC, can\'t say I cared for the gameplay tho\'.

shitty dev port?

you can\'t still be saying the PS3 isn\'t capable of producing better results.

Never said that. I just stated there is always going to be games that look better on one system as opposed to the other. Call it a shitty dev port, rushed schedules or just more experience with a given platform. It just happens.

No denying it, just pointing out that you want to make fun of the "360 sheep" and the same can happen to the PS3 "sheep".  There is always going to be one game that looks better on one system as opposed to another. It just works that way, no one is "sheep" and going out of your way to throw out an insult like that is simply childish.

guess it\'s only the 360, but circuit city has a thing in their weekly ad that says you get COD 3 for free when you buy COD4. I guess the multiplayer in COD3 is bad, but single player is worth it..plus free is free.

only problem is that my only CC is run by a bunch of best buy rejects. How theyre still in business i have no idea.

played the demo last night to see how my 7900gt would handle the 1680x1050 resolution of my new LCD and it was amazingly smooth and looked great!

I think I might pick this and the orange box up later this week and be set for a little while

yea, people have already gotten a hold of it. been hearing nothing but good things from them

except that single player is short..kind of sucks since iv always like COD\'s single player atmosphere but..MP more than makes up for it. (i played the beta..ill probably be getting it tomorrow)

IGN gave COD4 a 9.4, identical on both systems.
Title: Call of Duty 4!
Post by: Viper_Fujax on November 07, 2007, 04:25:34 PM
fun game. Pretty much exactly what i expected since its identical to the beta, in terms of gameplay. Map wise its really good..good variety and design in general.

the ranking system is pretty cool. All the 360 achievements are for single player, but the game itself has it\'s own "achievement" system on multiplayer, where you get certain upgrades for completing certain goals which will help with replay value/using all of the guns.

My 2 complaints is that in MP, i dont think all the maps are available for team deathmatch. Theres like 10 gameplays, and some maps are only specific to certain gameplays. I only play team DM so it limits how many maps im going to see. And SP, your teamates have no sense of where your character is, so in missions like the first one where its really cramped, the AI running into you gets really annoying. Luckily most of the game is in open land.

how\'s it possible to buy a newer model when you already bought the older ones? They only have a 30 day return policy.

the "newer" 360s aka elites and ones with HDMI still havent fixed the board problem they just added some stuff to help keep it attached - its not a perma-fix and people have already had elites giving 3 rings

when they finally do fix this and release the smaller processor chips ill buy a 360 i refuse to deal with returning console over and over >.>

doesn\'t cost anything sending it in. The only pain is driving to the UPS place to drop it off. And the time you are 360-less is just about the same as not owning one :D

Ill take playing assassins, cod4, mass effect, madden, dirt, etc with the drawback of the 360\'s failure rate. If M$ was being a bitch about the consoles crapping thatd be a completely different story

maybe im the minority, but i havent heard THAT many cases of people sending their consoles in "over and over"..feels like its been a long ass time since mine broke. Im hoping that since the one i got back was made Aug 2007 that it has the heatsink er whatever but..guess ill find out

I got my box today, shipping it off tomorrow, turn-a-round time is 3-4 weeks I think :( But I live like 3 hours from the place they are sent so hopefully they\'ll give me a break and fix it and ship it off quickly. I got the 3 lights a few months ago and it kept working, until recently it won\'t play at all!!!
