Some Comparisons came out between last and current gen.

Not to mention this is running at sub720P on PS3/360 at 30fps with dips with paired back graphical features. :gag:

For the most part, the reduction in quality is well-judged. Resolution drops to something in the region of 992x720 on both older consoles with a rough-looking FXAA implementation in place. In turn this is matched by pared-back textures, normal maps and effects-work. For example, particle effects are reduced, while motion blur only seems active on engine-driven cut-scenes (though a very mild, pared-back effect may be in play during Xbox 360 gameplay), whereas it's a staple of the complete presentation on current-gen. Shadows are also cut back, with unique implementations for PS3 and Xbox 360 that best suit the hardware. However, one the most noticeable differences comes in level-of-detail (LOD) scaling, which sees far more aggressive pop-in manifest on the older platforms - a key reason why The Phantom Pain holds up a lot better in still images.
Easily explains why some pics of the PS3 version looked not that different in pictures.
I don't even know why they bothered with a PS3/360 version. I guess they were scared current gen consoles weren't going to be selling well.

Imagine the PC version graphics :wow:

Would you recommend them over shopto?

Never pre-ordered from Shopto (only brought already released stuff). Sorry.

I will say 'fukk Amazon' though. Their shyt pre-order service (at least from my experience) was the only reason I went somewhere else. If I stuck with them, I'd have gotten the game 2 days late.
