    The lighting and clarity better in PS3, but the texture and facial shading looks better in PS2. Lara has goofy false lashes in next-Gen, while in ps2 version, she has a eye shine and shadow around her eyes that give her more depth.

      This was unfinished and rushed.
      If they took more time then it'd be better than ps2.
      Majority of game companies rush developers to finish game because of investors.
      CP77 and RDR2 is an example.

      Ironically enough, I played the PS2 version first as it was the only one I had at the time (not much of a gamer then), but thought it was way too easy compared to games of the past, not to mention the cutscenes, but I really liked the story. Remember I had bought it for my sister as a gift on the PS3, went over, and omg. When they said dumb down, that was being nice, though the puzzles really don't add much more, so maybe not too bad. The spirit's there and I'm sure it was a nice addition for anyone that only had a PS2, but had played all the other games in the trilogy.

    • @Legendary_Bleu

      @Edmund Pevensie are you dumb? Those dlc feature the true ending on TR underworld which is why the non dlc versions felt rushed. The developers said so themselves that the dlc was part of the game but they had to cut it to use as dlc as their current dlc was underwhelming (only outfits) and they needed more content for the exclusive deal dlc for the Xbox so they had to cut the original content and used that as dlc

    I don't know if this is actually the case but this feels like a very rare instance wherein the last gen port was prioritised over the next gen. The lighting consistently seems off on the PS3 version like it's a bad port, whereas it feels more meticulously crafted on the PS2. Take 1:08 for instance, the close up of the girl.

    One day someone is gonna have to explain to me why the PS3 was incapable of full fledge facial expressions like the PS4, and mostly obvious here, PS2. That scene alone on the plan with little Lara had so much going on in the eyes and face and the PS3 just looks like an idle NPC. I mean, I for one think the PS3 looks far gorgeous and definitely more detail, but like someone else said, I prefer the character model of the PS2 better, unlike the reboot port for the PS4 over PS3. But beyond that the PS3 would be damn near perfection for next gen if it didn't lack that major detail of facial expressions. And I say major, because the dev's obviously put thought into them for the PS2.

    • @theninjamaster67
      @theninjamaster67 2 роки тому +2

      Honestly the answer on why any one version looks worse than another usually comes down to what the developers main target platform was at the time of release since each version was basically a completely different version as compared to nowadays devs can just make one version and port it to everything with relative ease and for that reason some ports just got more love than others (like the PC version of Anniversary not receiving any of the "next gen models" that the 360 and PS3 got and being a general buggy mess)

  • @EpsilonChurchRVB
    @EpsilonChurchRVB 6 років тому +19

    If they took their time to Remaster this game properly, it would've looked nicer on PS3 than on PS2. The PS3's colors look dead while on PS2 they look vivid. The framerate is also bad in some cases and the small glitches within the game makes it awkward in a way so as of now within this comparison, PS2 gets the prize. The remastered version could redeem itself on the PS4 if the developers were to port it there and fix the flaws that the PS3 had. That or do an HD Remake built from the ground up, much like Shadow of the Colossus.

    Lara on legend wears a lot of make up. Which is obvious on the ps2 version and she looks very beautiful.
    On ps3 they toned down the make up significantly. She doesn't look as beautiful. So ps2 has the better model.
    Ps2 also has a warmer, more vivid colour palette. That's a preference though. I like the muted colours of ps3. They look more realistic.

    I have no nostalgia for either version, which it seems a lot of people in the comments do. To me the PS3 looks significantly better. I get what some people are saying about the lighting and color, but I think that was a deliberate design change, and would be preference. She does look a little plastic-y in the remake, but she looks too flat to me in the PS2 version, like her skin and clothes and hair are all made of the same material or something. There's also more color contrast in the PS2 version, but muted colors were a trend in the early 7th gen so I'm pretty sure that was a deliberate design choice, and I don't think it looks bad. The ps2 version isn't bad looking, but everything looks flat and blurry too me compared to the ps3 version, which is very sharp and has nicely high resolution textures and noticeable mapping. The environments in the PS3 version also have fewer sharp angles and more natural looking geometry, making it look less like a game level and more like an actual natural setting. I can get why someone might prefer the look of the ps2 version, especially if they have some nostalgia for it, but the PS3 version looks better to me, even with slightly plastic-y Laura. Actually found this video cause I'm considering getting the Trilogy for PS3, as I've never played this games, and I really want some more Uncharted style games.

    The lighting and shadows are better on ps3 but the faces and colors seem to have taken a hit.
    1:01 i didn't even notice before now but the colors and lights look way better in the ps2 here, the cockpit is even glowing red and lights are flickering. Also lara's eyes don't more much in the new version, she has to move her whole head to look.😅

    3:08 she looks so weird here in the ps3 version, like a sex doll or something, maybe it's the dead eyes idk. In game the ps3 version looks the best but in CUTSENES the ps3 is lacking sometimes, i love the old gen version more and i wish they tuned it up instead of trying to make a "copy" of it. all the ps3 has on the older gen is the lights, shaders and shadows, but that's all just hardware right?
