How powerful is vita?

**radgamer420** · 03-01-2012

I thought the textures and overall look in Uncharted were pretty good actually in most places and was pretty comparable to Uncharted 1 imo.The lighting in some areas were pretty impressive as well. Curious to see what the games start looking like further into the Vita lifecycle.

Tbh, I'd put UGB about just above UDF, but not that close to UAT

I don't mind the character models, low anisotropic filtering or anything like that since developers are working with a smaller resolution but Uncharted: Golden Abyss wasn't locked at 30 frames per second. When you get to some of the large, open areas with a bunch of henchmen and large structures, it starts to drop below 20 frames per second. Other than that, no complaints.

If Rockstar Games consider developing a GTA title for the Vita then hopefully they do it with the modified RAGE engine. They didn't really accomplish much with the PSP (Liberty City Stories never looked as good as GTA III).

What I don't get is this whole ram business
Vita has more ram then both the PS3 and 360, kinda like the Wii U does
Yet I don't see the benefits graphically
Things like textures and AA are not even matching the HD twins despite them having less ram

GPU is the one which has effect on graphixs while RAM affects loading and multitasking.

8 month bump. nice.

It isn't bad at all. It has some room for improvement, and it will definitely get it further on in the development stages. Remember, the PS3 has the cell to help with a lot of things that the Vita won't be able to offload to.

Just wonder how its graphic compare to psp

**chrisw26308** · 11-10-2012

You would have to compare the Vita to the first year of the PSP to compare properly. At the end of the PSP's life, it had some games that look as good as some Vita games. This just means the Vita should greatly improve over time.

Look at the PSP FIFA13 game, then look at the Vita FIFA 13 game. That's a proper comparison.

Need me to post some pics?

Look at LBP PSP vs the Vita release. I mean, cmon. There are many aspects of the games on the Vita that showcase the power, that even the best looking PSP game doesn't even touch.

Some games on the Vita are amazing. Virtua Tennis on the Vita looks identical to the PS3. But look at God of War on the PSP. The graphics are amazing.

P.S. Could you post those comparisons? I am curious to see.

**F34R** · 11-10-2012

no doubt GOW looked really good... it doesn't hold up to the power of the Vita though. Gimme a few mins to get some caps done on both. I don't have the ss prx pluggin on my psp anymore. Grrrr...

When you see 'em, you're going to freakin laugh your ass off. Matter of fact, I'll just upload a video of both playing side by side....

**Cybertox** · 11-10-2012

The Vita has also higher resolution and thats one of the reason why games on vita look better than the best ones for psp.

**BoyBettaKnow** · 11-10-2012

Rumour has it, in the hands of talented developers Sony believe they can achieve the level of graphics shown in this tech demo. If it's true then the answer is very powerful.

**F34R** · 11-10-2012

I'm going to have to hook my psp back up to the hd pvr and get some honest video vs recording it with a camera or phone. It made it worse lol.

+rep if you get these comparisons up.

**F34R** · 11-11-2012

yeah, I am going to do them in a few mins. I'll see how they come out. Screens will probably come straight from the pvr cap, while the vita comes from it's screen shot ability. Unless I can find my prx for ss for the PSP lol. Working on them now. Thanks for reminding me.

edit:

PSP video is uploading now. If anyone has any requests, PM me, or post them here and I'll see what I can do.

**F34R** · 11-11-2012

Here ya go:

FIFA 13 Sony PSP

FIFA 13 Sony PS Vita

**mickice** · 11-11-2012

So Vita kills it?

**LfCpS3** · 11-11-2012

That is literally like ps2/ps3 difference...

Well to me anyway.

First, I thought SNES/PS3 lol.

**Lethal_NFS** · 11-11-2012

wow, the PSP version looks like crap lol

**F34R** · 11-11-2012

Yeah. I had it before the Vita version. I knew just from the FIFA (11/12/13) demo on the store, that the games were light years away in similarities.

**Lethal_NFS** · 11-11-2012

I would love to see a madden comparison. Make this happen F34R!!!!!!!

**F34R** · 11-11-2012

The last madden was 12 for the PSP... I can do it with a Vita M.13 video I guess. I'll have to re-download the demo for the Vita while I'm cap'in the PSP video.
