LOL, no. The preference, I believe.
i have found some very very slight 'stuttering' on the ps3 version. i think it's the game loading the level data, though.Lince said:
maybe the blu-ray seek times are every so slightly slower than those on the 360? not sure. ps3-only owners honestly cannot go wrong here. the game looks great (a little softer looking with some lower res textures than 360 version imo) but it runs great, the online set-up is excellent (everything functioned perfectly last night, mic quality is excellent, uses xmb friend's list, community was chatting). The first thing I heard from peoples' mouths on PSN last night was "god, this is so much better than Warhawk!" :lol
I think the game will do well on PS3. In fact, I think it's going to be PS3's best selling game this fall.
Single-Player:
I'm about 1 1/2 hours in, and it's very immersive. It's the same basic formula, you are put into the shoes of, I think it's 3 different soldiers. The tech really helps pull you into the experience, and IW does an incredible job telling a story. The level design, control, sound, graphics, everything are all top-notch (I wish I had surround sound right now :-( )
Multi-player:
I played online for a good 4 hours last night and WOW! The game is insanely deep online. The fact that most modes, weapons, and perks have to be unlocked instead of being available right away is great. It makes the person play the game and get better at it before they jump in to a lot of the material. It also makes some matches very frenetic since only higher-level players are in them.
IW has definitely set a new bar for Tech, and it's going to be tough to reach. The tech makes the game a lot more immersive, which in turn really pulls you in and allows you to enjoy it much more. The fact that you can shoot through some walls, and actually have shots ricochet is crazy, and really makes you think differently in terms of how you play this game.
So far, this is my pick for Game of the Year for Cross-Platform.

JB1981 said:Graphics are simply unreal. But so far the game is pretty boring. I feel like I'm watching most of it happen. I'm playing the 360 version because it looks better.
PS3 version sounds better and looks spectacular as well, though.
J-Rez, need any players for multi? I wanna try this out on PSn.
My tag is Beamber. Let me know, I have to get to bed soon
I don't know if someone responded to you or not but I see you have an itch that needs to be scratched. Sony Bravia 1080p set. My PS3 copy and my friends 360 copy. Both games are drooling drop dead gorgeous BUT my trolling FOS friend there are areas of the game where the PS3 has the edge in, yes, can we say it ..Textures and lighting. Its called building the game from the ground up to take advantage of the console. Also theres really no need to compress the hell out of your textures if your using bluray. Think sometimes. Sorry gaf.
Online is smoooth also.
Goddamn the M95 Barett used close to the end of the sniper mission was sic. When he said you have to remember the coriolis effect I knew this shit was special.

Textures are compressed to fit into memory. It has nothing to do with storage space.

I really enjoyed Halo 3, and I absolutely loved BioShock but after spending a couple hours with COD4 last night, I've got to say that this is likely to be my GOTY. Oh my God is this game brilliant! Each time I would think (or actually say out loud) "Fuck, that's AMAZING!" within a few minutes, I'd be floored again. Beautiful buttery smooth visuals, super tight gameplay and an edge of your seat story...wow what a package!
If you enjoy the FPS genre in the least, you owe it to yourself to pick Infinity Ward's masterpiece up. EVERYONE does.
As far as the Circuit City deal goes, you couldn't pay me to play through that train wreck Treyarch smeared the Call of Duty name with again. But I understand, it's a free game.
Run, don't walk to get this game. You'll thank me and everyone else on here telling you just how wonderful COD4 is.
Did anyone else notice the 3 in the lower right corner of the Infinity Ward logo on the main menu? I thought that was a nice little nod to what is the rightful third game in the series.

Exactly. If there's no definitive conclusion by now, with people actually buying copies of both versions, then they both rock socks, end of story.

You like me, you really really like me!
seems like it's always the PS3 owners who start the argument :lol

Is anyone running this at 1080p from the PS3 into a 1080p TV? Any framerate issues?

What a year for FPS games. And this is the shining star, better than Halo3, TF2, Bioshock....and everything else.

And community. Whether you want to believe it or not, there will be a lot more people playing the 360 version. And more of them are likely to be using headsets (for better or worse).

It is 720p native but since I have a 1080p TV it's going to end up at 1080p regardless. I figure it may be better to upscale on the PS3 end where it has some knowledge on the type of content that it's upscaling vs. letting my TV upscale where it will upscale everything the same way.Pug said:
You win on either system. If you are choosing between platforms, Graphics etc shouldn't be the determining factor, especially since they are virtually identical in technical terms.
I am incredibly happy with it on PS3, because I like that controller more, and I have a bigger friends list on PS3. We really had no issues inviting friends to matches etc, and voice works very well. No lag at all in any match either, and I probably played online for about 3 to 4 hours last night.
With me, my 360 is being shipped to me from MS (my 3rd 360) To be brutally hoenst, I have no faith in my 360 hardware any more, and a multi-platform game that's done this well will always be a PS3 purchase for me, since I have 100% trust in my PS3 to be stable and not die.

Does this game have online co op?
Aaah fuck this, you people are really going to make me buy BOTH console versions just to compare them, aren't you???
PS: Also, I wanted the PS3 version because my friends have PS3's but... I'll curse you IW till the end of eternity (and guess what, there ain't none!) for not releasing a PS3 Collector's Edition, one more reason for me to buy both damn damn damn
.
PPS: Anyone knows what that special perk/something/whatever for PS3 was?
I'm cooling down now.

I refuse to scroll through the past couple of pages of bitchiness, but has ANYONE in Canada found this game yet? I'm getting calls here at work from annoyed friends who claim it's not out today at all but "maybe" tomorrow based on which store they talk to.
If I have to wait another day I'm going to be pissed. :|

I was really tempted till i read your level-headed response :lol
It's gonna have to be the PS3 version coz of my friends. And if some people say it's better in the 360 and others in the PS3, it's gotta be that close.
I just hope that if a PS3 CE never comes out, i'll still be able to find a 360 one in a few months. (curse you IW, ya hear me???)FirewalkR said:I was really tempted till i read your level-headed response :lol

Thats what bugs me. They could have easily put it on the same disc and have two skus if they wanted..
