PSU: PSU PS3 vs. PSU Xbox 360

[Zantra]

Ok, we all know that PSU can be played using the Xbox 360, and it can also be played on the Playstation 3.
I was wondering, does the Playstation 3 boost the performance, and graphics of a Playstation 2 game, like the Playstation 2 slightly boosted the performance of a Playstation game?
And, if it does, does the Playstation 3 version (so to speak) run better/look better then the Xbox 360 version?

Screenshots would be appreciated, but not necessary.

I'm just wondering, because I have a PS2, and PSU, and i'm trying to decide on Getting an Xbox 360, and PSU, or just a Playstation 3, to keep playing PSU, and perhaps, take the game online.

Thanks, for all of your help.

[Rashiid]

ive heard the 360 graphics are better for this game, since it was designed for it, and PS2 verison was designed for PS2, so im sure teh graphics dont change that much.

and, as for taking teh game online, i shall not touch. w/e's cheaper for ya.

[Sychosis]

Whichever console has more games you would like to play now, and in the future.

[Zantra]

Well, that would be both...

The reason i'm asking, is because I want to know which version runs better, and looks better. I'm going to get both systems eventually. I just wondered if I got a PS3 to play PSU, instead of an Xbox 360, would there be any added benefits, like enhanced graphics, shorter load times, bigger online community, etc.
So far, all I can figure out, is that PSU for Xbox 360 has Voice chat, and that (according to gamespot) PS2's version doesn't look as visually fuzzy.

Question:

do you like striving for things in life (or games), or just handed to ya?

[[everyone plz just let em answer, no flame indended]]

[xeron123]

I think I would only get a PS3 if they had some better games. Sure there's a couple, but it's just too expensive for what it can do so far. And they should make it double boost PS1 games because, well just because http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[Akaimizu]

Graphically, it's pretty much the 360. But that's mainly because the PS3 can't produce graphical details from PS2 games, that weren't there in the first place. You're dealing with PS2 textures, screen-sizes, and whatever the game was designed for. The 360 version was designed for the high def resolutions it can use. It also can run the game in native wide-screen resolutions as well as 4x3.

I've heard some PS2 games don't run or don't run well under PS3, so PSU may run worse on an PS3 than a PS2.

I dont know for sure thou.

To get technical you are wrong. The game was designed for the PS2, and then ported to PC and 360.

There is a significant difference between designing a game for a system and porting a pre-existing game to another platform.

PSU loads faster on PS3 than PS2; some 25 to 45% faster. Graphic-wise, I don't have a good TV to try it out.

[Zantra]

I like both systems frankly, i've always eventually bought all of the systems for every console cycle, so i'm not going to even try to be a fan boy for Microsoft, or for Sony. But, here is a price comparison of what i'd have to spend to play PSU for an Xbox 360 Elite or a 60gb PS3.

Xbox 360 Elite = $479.99
Xbox 360 Wireless Adapter = $99.99
Copy of PSU Xbox 360 = $59.99
Total cost: $640.00

Playstation 3 60gb = $599.99
Playstation 3 60gb wireless adapter = Free with the system
Copy of PSU Playstation 2 = Free (I already have it)
Total: $600.00

Even though the PS3 has a harddrive half the size, it is $40 less then the cost of The Xbox 360 Elite, because of the copy of PSU Xbox 360 i'd have to buy.

[Pengfishh]

Actually, PSU for 360 is retailing at 19.99 (at GameCrazy stores, anyway), which means your calculations come to the same price.

It's this sweet deal that keeps your roomates from bitching about the ethernet cable running across the living room.

[KamiSori]

360 version is better because:

native widescreen and HD
xbox live voice chat

since the game was made for PS2 i dont believe that version has the capacity to be viewed in high definition or in widescreen.

[Midicronica]

http://www.ebgames.com/common/images/lbox/802124b.jpg

Designed for versatility and ease, the Xbox 360 Wireless Networking Adapter enhances your Xbox 360 experience in the digital home, seamlessly synchronizing with the Xbox 360 system. You can easily transfer videos and music to your Xbox 360 system from your Media Center PC, chat with your friends, play games via Xbox Live, and more—all without the clutter of wires.

Yeah, that.

[JAFO22000]

Oh.

[Zantra]

I have a basic Standard definition TV, so the only thing the Xbox 360 version really has over the PS2 version is better graphics, and voice chat. I was wondering if the PS3 makes the graphics more comparable to the Xbox 360 version. And, which community seems to have more people, because it seems to me, that if i'm going to spend $10 a month to play any game, I want to make sure that other people are playing also. It would really suck to choose one version over the other, and discover that everyone else is on the other version.

[Midicronica]

As far as I know, the 360 has a larger population. Most of the people on the boards are on PC/PS2.

[Zantra]

Well, i'm on the PS2 version (offline), because I heard that the PS3 makes it much easier to get online (then it was on the PS2), and that PS3's online is free, so that you only have to pay for your hunters license.
I believed that PS2's online cost money to use, so that's kept me from going online with PSU so far.

[Akaimizu]

PSU only requires a Silver Live subscription, so there is absolutely no cost outside of the Guardian's License. PS2 shouldn't cost any service fees, either.

[Midicronica]

Wow, I didn't know that it there was a fee for online service for PS2. The 360 does have a online service, as well.. but what's $50USD a year anyway, eh?


Oh yeah, forgot about the silver account. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif Thanks, Akaimizu.

[TorterraEndor]

If you have the money/already have both consoles, then its really up to if you have any social reasons to play on either server.

PS3 won't make the graphics better, since it was designed for PS2.

If you don't have any friends on either server, 360 is the obvious choice to go to. If only for the economy and voice chat(And this is coming from a PC user, if I had money for 360 right now, and had no friends on PC/PS2, I'd move). Both communities have their general assholes, but thats just the internet.

My question is why would you have to buy the wireless adapter for the Xbox 360. but you dont have to buy nything like that for the PS3. Unless of course The PS3 comes with it. I dont have one so I dot know

[Akaimizu]

PS3 comes with WIFI built in. Though the Price is actually identical if just taking those options verbatim since PSU for the 360 is only 20 dollars.

Still, people have basically said what differences you can expect. And nicely without any flames, overbearing biases, or anything. This topic is well done, so far.

[Jaysky]

If you want to buy the PS3 to play PSU on it then i'd highly disreguard to that, stick to playing it on your PS2. PS3 is not what Sony said it would be and it's "backwards compatibility" is just a load of bull. SOrry if im pissing anyone off here but tough, its true. Just an example of what i'm talking about, someone playing the opening of Final Fantasy with both the PS3 and the PS3, side by side. Look at the differences.

From the description "THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT RESOLVED IN THE 1.50 FIRMWARE UPDATE!!!!!!!!! ", should be better now http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

[youthisoverrated]

from what i can tell from different websites and such the 360 is much better graphic wise then the PS3. that and i've heard the PS3 games won't go over 720p

idk it's really up to you what you get, it's your money. but you at least check everything out before buying either to see which one you like better.

[Zantra]

Well, if we look at the old servers of PSO, we can see that even if Microsoft comes up with a new system "Xbox 720", "Xbox 3", etc., in a few years. They will keep the PSU servers open. Sure, they might be stuck in an endless Easter, or Christmas, or even Halloween. But, they are sure to stay open, at least for a little while, after the PS2 servers have been shutdown. The PC servers, (which I realize are also the PS2 servers) are harder to tell, considering the fact that PSOBB is still running. So maybe PS2 PSU will stay open for a very long time, it's hard to tell. I just want to know that if I go to all the trouble of working hard on a LVL 100 character or 3, that I don't even get to keep, that I get to play them in this game, for a long time.

Here's a good question, does any version of PSU let you have more characters then another to play with online, or are we all stuck with 4?

Also, if they were to port PSU to the PS3, with better graphics, faster load times, and the expansion included, would you buy it?

(I'm thinking about how they did the same thing with the PS3 version of Elder Scrolls 4)

[GaNksTa]

The 360 has:

Best graphics
Voice Chat
Small-Medium community

The PS2/PS3 has:

A large community because of link with PC.
There may still be some hacks.. but most were wiped (I'm not entirely sure)


On both servers, like other have stated, there are the occasional assholes.

I'm not sure about this but, I think it's easier to start out in 360 rather than PS2.
From what I have heard the PS2 prices are a lot higher than 360's.

Other than that, it's all up 2 you.

360 has better graphics than PS2, but PC has higher graphics potential.

And I'd say 360 probably has a larger community than PC and PS2 <_>

not sure if anyones given you this option....but ebay a copy, i bought my second copy for less then 30 bones, that should make em about the same. I'd go with the 360 version, the PS2 version is a bit laggier and isn't as fine tuned in my opinion

[ShinMaruku]

Well the PS3 cna make it look better but they tunred the scaler off... >_>

[Sekani]

In all honesty... on a standard-definition TV, I don't think you'd notice much of a graphical difference playing PSU on either the PS3 or the Xbox360. This is coming from my impressions of both systems running on regular TVs.

On a high-definition TV though, the 360 version looks comparable to PSU on a high-end PC, and I'd imagine it would be drastically better than an "upscaled" PS2 game.

Also playing PSU on a PS3 has been said to improve performance, though I can't say first-hand how much of an improvement it is.

Bottom line: no matter which way you decide, make sure you look into getting an HDTV very soon. It's the only way to do either console justice.

Don't forget there are different versions of the 360 you don't HAVE to buy the top of the line 360 elite; a core system will do just fine. Just depends on what your preferences are. Also while I’m sure in the future the ps3 will have a good online service… with xbox live you can play ANY game and private chat to anyone on your friends list, download movies, TV shows, arcade-style games etc…

[Sexy_Raine]

This makes me wonder if Sega is going to release a PS3 version of PSU when the expansion comes out.
Other than that I don't think getting a PS3 just to make the PS2 version look a little better is worth it.

Well, it's not just to make it look better, but to also shorten load times, and to play it online.

[A2K]

There are several cheaper third-party options that connected to the wired ethernet port at the back of the 360. (The console itself will detect it as a wired connection.) I can't attest to their reliability, though--nor the reliability of the official USB adapter, either: it's wired or nothing for me.

[Zantra]

I usually use a cord too, but the room i'm going to be setting it up in, is all the way across the house from where the router is, and it's a wireless router, so I figured i'd save other people in the house from tripping over a 200ft long broadband cord, by using wireless.

[Sychosis]

What A2K means is that you can use any 3rd party wireless adapter that attaches to the Ethernet port because it will recognize it as a wired connection anyway.

Though nothing is guaranteed 100% unless you buy the official adapter, I have seen many people using 3rd party wireless adapters before.

like putting Halo 2 on ur 360. not a difference, looks teh same.

[Esufer]

I quite like the PS3 for when I need a snack while I play my games. Thanks to it's patented design, the fat just runs right out of the grill, and into an easily removable tray.

It's a lean, mean, fat-fighting machine.

I'm so proud I put my name on it.

I would go with the Xbox 360 PSU.
There are no hakers on it. YA!!

You can ge a use PSU game for the 360 for $25. Or you can go on Ebay and might find it cheeper. There are many whays to get any game sistem cheeper. But the real reason I would get a 360 would be there are no HACKERS on the game. I herd that there are alot of hacker on PS2/PS3 and PC. That jest ruiens the game for me. That is why I would pick the 360. It is hack free. Hoping for a long time.

That link doesn't go anywhere, if you look at Gamespot, Gamefaqs, and the official Sony website for these "facts", you don't find them. Sony Playstation 3 is always going to be backwards compatable, just because you're a Microsoft fan, it doesn't mean that you have to spread lies in my threads.

[Zantra]

Thanks, I've made my decision. (which means that the mods can close this thread if they want, or leave it open for further debate)

I figure, that like all other MMO's you get a free month of play, so when I buy my Xbox 360, or my Playstation 3, I will try this game online for a month. And, if I enjoy it. I will decide if I want to keep playing online, or just keep playing offline, like I have been since this game came out.

If I really like the game, I will get all 3 versions. So that I can use the PC Version to post pics of my characters, and either the PS2 version, or the Xbox 360 version to play online.

That's my decision, thanks for all of your help everyone, and I hope to see you all online very soon. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

[Valvalion]

The PS3 won't enhance the PS2 version to look like the Xbox 360 version, unfortunately.

To buy a PS3 in order to play PSU online is completely nonsensical.

If you're buying one of those two consoles in order to play PSU, the xbox 360 version would be better due to the XB360 specific features, updated graphics, voice chat, etc.

However, if you already have a PS3 and just want to play PSU, sure. Go for the PS2 version.

This is my current dilemma...

[Akaimizu]

That's a different case together. I have the Wii and I haven't noticed any enhanced changes from the GC, on it, when running GC games. It looks precisely the same, so far. However, you can't play Gamecube games online, on the Wii. You'll have to stick with offline stuff and/or offline modes. Now that online is shut down, for the old PSO; it doesn't make much of a difference.

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Akaimizu on 2007-04-04 13:22 ]</font>

[Zantra]

Well, that doesn't seem to really be a problem for me, since the official servers were shutdown, and I don't really play often on the "other servers". It's good to know, that it doesn't really enhance the game though, because enhanced backwards compatability is something I want, if I buy a new system.

It will still be backwards compatible, but less games will work. Sony is removing the hardware for it and replacing it with software. European PS3s are already like this.

[Zantra]

The Xbox 360 is like that too, i've played KOTOR 2 on an Xbox 360, and while the graphics were smoothed out, and the sound quality was better, there were weird glitches and noises at certain points in the game, which made me want to just play the game on my original Xbox.

[R3Dirkulous]

the ps2 version doesnt support voice chat, and it also has about 3-4 times less people. 360 graphics are better also.

I should'nt even say this... but lets just say you will not be as hard up for messeta on the PC/PS2 version if you have a shop(not talking about haxing) but then the cost is relative so you'll end up buying from players for more. The econmy is settling slowly... but at i have been on this game for a while and spend like 10million a week(give most of it to friend whos forever synthing stuff for me to sell in shops... and the cycle restarts). anywayz some ppl consider me poor with around 20million. On 360 I would be rich.

Some say the econmy on pxc/ps2 ruined the game. Some not.

Dpenends where you stand on this. Though to tr-iterate you can only buy so much from the NPC shops and when you get to an advanced class and want good A-Rank(or even S-Rank... such as there is) with good stats expect to pay through the nose for them if you are not making them.... and photons with a price of 20,000 at 10 a time on a synth that is by no means guaranteed can be expensive.

Just a factor worth baring in mind. The 360 econmy and PC/PS2 econmy are different. I am on PS2 and I don't think it has ruined the game but some people do. Oh yes... the gfx are ported from PS2 and you CAn run a PS2 at HD res... not too well. But you'd be hard pushed to notice the difference. I don't think the 360 version lags so much.... but then again on the pc/ps2 version I can play that at other'locations' on a PC(with NO lag) or on my PS2 on my home TV, or even on my home PC with the same account. Not so on the 360...

This makes me wonder if Sega is going to release a PS3 version of PSU when the expansion comes out.
Other than that I don't think getting a PS3 just to make the PS2 version look a little better is worth it.


I'd hope so but nah that's gonna be the 360/PS3 Nights.. :E

[Zantra]

If Sega knew that it was going to make them more money, then they would. BTW Sega can make more then one game, just because they are putting Nights on the PS3, it doesn't mean that they can't put another game on there, also.

Well they could but I'm watin and seein...

I can agree that playing PSU is better in the Xbox360
but the PS3 is not for the PS2 games
my friend keep on saying this to anyone who thinks of the PS3 Backward capabilities
"we are moving to next-gen technologies, if you want to play you PS2 games then keep your PS2 consoles"

even without a HD Television the PS3 runs like your watching a movie (this is the actual game)
however the 360 still NEEDS the HD Television

It would be so nice if people actually read my posts before posting...
I made my decision, nobody is going to make me change my decision. End of story.
I've asked the mods to close my thread twice, they just haven't.

Does your friend work for Sony? I didn't think so. That's his personal opinion, one of the main draws of the current console cycle, is that all 3 systems are in some way backwards compatable.

360 has better graphics than PS2, but PC has higher graphics potential.

And I'd say 360 probably has a larger community than PC and PS2 <_>



Yup. I am playing PSU with an Nvidia 7800GS in 1024x768 resolution with all enabled details and effects. It runs much smoother than the old Nvidia 5600XT.

[Zantra]

Of course it would run better, it's a newer graphics card... (Finalzone)

Time to derail since the OP has requested a lock!

I play PSU with a Geforce 6600 on 1280x1024 with everything up(except the damned frameskip!), with no problems.

Don't you have something better to do, then to spam people's threads all day? Why don't you go make your own thread, and then you can spam there as much as you want.

I enjoy my PSU on the PS3, thank you very much. IF the controller didn't suck monkey butt it would be much better. That's okay, that's what a dremmel is for (for those of you with trigger problems). Seriously.

[Mattardo]

As has been stated before briefly, the PS3 improves loading of weapons greatly. As a Super Force, the difference between PS2 and PS3 is immense. THe PS3 is much quicker. Everyone had to wait for me to load on PS2, not on PS3... The graphics are the same as you would get from the PS2. Warning: with the latest update to the firmware, backing out of the game to the Sony menu will force you to manually unplug your USB keyboard before regaining control of your controller. Maybe it's just me. Maybe it's a conincedence that this update introduced bluetooth keyboard support more fully. Hmmm. IF you're using digital sound (and not analog), the surround sound is wretched. I highly recommend setting the game to analog connections. And to get the best picture, it's best to uncheck all display modes that are HD when playing PS2 games. I like the PS3, but at the same time, I don't like it. I feel as if I've been ripped off and all the software updates care about are the internet browser and blue ray movies. So there ya go: loads faster, controller sucks, graphics are the same as PS2 and you still can't use classic controllers for it. I use it, though. Dremmel.

Well, let's end it here.
