To recap, Battlefield 3 on Xbox 360 and PS3 has an optional HD texture install. The gameâs developers DICE have said that without this, the game looks âstandard defâ. But why take their word for it when you can see the difference yourself?
Most of the time, there doesnât appear to be much difference! Itâs only when you start looking at the incidental stuff, or things outside your immediate point of interest, that you see where things are lacking.
Then again, some of the time, the difference is pretty damn clear
Given the fact almost everybody playing the game on 360 will have a HDD, and thus install the textures, this of course wonât be a problem for, well, any of you, Iâd hope. Same goes for PS3: youâll all have HDDs on Sonyâs console, so thereâs no excuse.
But itâs still interesting seeing the workaround in action, no?
