Indeed. It is literally the best looking PS3 game ever. The ps4 remaster essentially was just an uprez and framerate boost, and that was enough.

[@sethb9687]

I absolutely can't believe how well the original holds up. Beautiful game all around. That being said, I'm currently playing the remake and it's just on another level. I would say it's in my top 5 for best looking games I've ever played. There have also been some very minor gameplay changes with the AI and some of the controls (it plays almost identical), but those slight tweaks just make the QoL so much better. It's kind of hard to explain, but makes for a much more satisfying playthrough that I felt the original was lacking when I went to replay it. I would hold off for a sale though. If you're new to the game, then maybe get it now. The game is worth it, but 70 bucks is a hefty price tag for a decade old game that has cut content

The PS3 has 256MB of RAM, it's amazing how well the console holds up while running this game. Fun fact: You can plug in a FAT32 USB into one of the ports with an SPRX that runs storage to memory conversion. You can use this to have external RAM running on your console which allows you to run more tasks. For every 32GB of space, you get an extra 500MB of RAM (750MB on a PS3 if running HFW or CFW basically).

[@MrVidification]

The ps5 obviously has a little more texture detail and seems to be higher res but I prefer the more greyish lack of colour in (some) scenes or characters in the ps3 version. It gives a more moody atmosphere, almost like an old 70s movie. That's the problem with so called upgrades, sometimes the choices made to enhance really have the opposite effect as the developers end up thinking far too hard. Overall though both are good, but the jump between generations shows far less improvement than the generations that have come before, and the little things are starting to become more important these days anyway (character ai and animations in particular). The developers need to remember they are making games and not movies

In Part II, the models looked like the original people but older, which is what happens as you age; certain features about you change. But these new models are reverse-engineered from the Part II models, meaning they tried to bring the older-aged faces to the younger characters, and it just looks...off to me.

@pickyroman Yes.

[@TheDarkstorm77]

Looking at these side by side the PS3 version draws my attention more. The PS5 version is visually better but maybe too polished I don't know. Somehow the PS3 version world looks more run down and dingy. If I had a PS5 I would want to play it but not for $70 of a game I played twice on PS3 and once on PS4.

[@Aniket7172]

As someone who hasn't played this game before, I really prefer the PS3 version. Yes, the character models and high fid textures are obviously better on PS5 but the lighting in the original feels so much better. Ray tracing is great for realism but the original version's slightly darker tone seems very fitting to me.

[@Ayixlia]

That PS3 Cell architecture is no joke if only developers knew how to use it so well maybe there may be better looking games for the PS3 running at 1080P 60HZ.

[@mstrsrvr]

I read somewhere Cell architecture had a reasonable rationale behind it: ps2 had lots of dedicated units for each stage of a game: graphics, sound, logic, etc. For ps3, Sony designed one chip with a few exceptionally fast units, so it could perform every of those roles in one chip, except for graphics. If ps3 only had a better memory layout and good dev tools from start, we might have be playing with some interaction of Cell today.

[@Pokemonashgreen2]

Ps3 version/ps4 still looks amazing. I just see a $70 price for a little upgrade in the graphics. This new generation not going to have alot details but add more ray tracing and realistic shadows.
