Weird that as from the single screen shots the PS3 looks better - but the second looks like a bad screenshot has been taken

any more comparisons

Hmmmm prefer the PS3 road shot, but interesting with the missing detail on the comparison shot.

XBOX360 screen = 720p
PS3 = 1080p

Also note, XBOX360 is Ridge Racer 6
PS3 is Ridge Racer 7

Does it actually matter? Ridge Racers on PSP was miles better than any Ridge Racer on PS2, despite being graphically inferior. It's all about the game, man.

There's a thread about this on AVForums. There's a lucky chap on there in Japan with a PS3 and RR7 and reckons that those pics were taken with in running in 720p mode through a composite cable. The side by side pic also looks like a PS2 screenshot - there's more impressive stuff in GT4.

He's been running 1080p through HDMI and reckons it needs to be seen to be beleived.

addendum - I hate that f*****g track on RR6!!
