Uncharted: Drake's Fortune PS3 vs PS4 Comparison -No Commentary-

A comparison between the original Uncharted: Drake's Fortune on the PS3 and the version of the game on the Nathan Drake Collection on the PS4. I am using a PS4 Pro, and I have Super Sampling on with my Elgato HD60s which is only a 1080p capture card. I probably should have used my EVGA XR1 Lite or my Monster HDMI Capture card which have 4K passthrough, but they also just record at 1080p 60. The PS3 version is 720p scaled to 1080p in OBS and the PS4 Pro version is 1080p. Both have been upscaled to 4K in my editing software.

I know that Digital Foundry did a much more in-depth comparison between these versions some years ago, but I still thought it would be interesting to do a side-by-side comparison of my own.

Gameplay-wise, the PS3 version feels harder on Normal difficulty which I am playing on. I'm not sure if that's just the difference between the framerate between the versions. The PS4 version runs at twice the framerate of the PS3 version, so maybe the aiming and movement are just easier. Or maybe Bluepoint did make it slightly easier for modern gamers. Not sure really.

The Dell OEM RX 550 on CachyOS Linux (HP Slimline 270, i3-7100, 16 gigs DDR4)

These aren't serious benchmarks, I'm just eyeballing the averages here. In my previous video I said I was done upgrading my HP slimline 270 desktop, and I thought I was, but I couldn't help the urge to tinker around with it more, so I picked up the Dell OEM RX 550 4GB GPU to see how much of an uplift it gave my little HP Slimline which is now, maybe around or just below the specs of an original Xbox One. It was hanging around an Xbox 360 level, so it's almost a console generation leap in performance.
