Road Rash (3DO vs Sega Saturn) Side by Side Comparison

Road Rash Comparison - Sega Saturn vs 3DO.

[RetrOrigin]

3DO has actual transparent shadows (Saturn has dithered sprites instead)
On the other hand the Satun version is clearly running at a higher/smother framerate.

[ciredecgellar]

Deepest color and bette framerate for the Saturn version, but both are really close

3do
-Transparencies in water, shadows, car glasses, clouds
-Nicer sky and 3d cloud effect, less pixelated
-Better use of Light-Shadow in poligonal faces textures, example buildings in the city, and certain terrain shapes.
-Better use of color, (concrete and asfalt have a purple tone color in the saturn port)
-Less light inside the tunnel (not present in saturn)
-Better in-game chip generated music
-The objects on the horizon pop-ups with a nice foggy transition (in saturn just pop-in)
-Sort of an Antialiasing treatment for distant textures, make them look more appealing and less pixelated.
-Better sound effects (some saturn ones are just too loud, like crashing sounds, and police sirens)

Saturn
-Smother animation
-More Fps

los q critican la version de 3do no se olviden de que en 3do jugamos el juego casi dos años antes q en saturn.

As a kid, uncle bought this game and 3DO and graphics blew me away. This was the beginning for me of possibilities that led to games like Grand Theft Auto games today.

Very close call this. The Saturn has faster frame rate but the 3DO has slightly more vibrant colours, the sky and sea reflect this. Both are credible versions but the 3DO just edges it for me.

[JawkneeJay]

This is one of my top 10 games of all time i play it pretty constantly and for some reason i always gravitate towards the 3DO version. I know the other versions run faster frame rate but the 3DO has a vibe that the others just dont.

Eu quase caí da cadeira vendo essa imagem da tela de loading da versão de Saturn que é ÚNICA, NÃO VI EM NENHUMA OUTRA VERSÃO ESSA IMAGEM DO MOTOQUEIRO PELA CIDADE, QUE (EU AMO AS ARTES DESSE JOGO)

[paulolameiras]

3DO was a beast for its time, something on the lines of Neo Geo and the original Xbox.

[TS-yzud]

Saturn Road Rash seems to be the best one next to PC Road Rash.

[RetroGamerBB]

can you do shockwave and starfighter and starblade vs series? 3do vs saturn vs ps1

[dad]

I can't say much on the 3do version but I own the Saturn version and like it.

[TigonVLiger]

Gotta give this duel to the Saturn version for its smoother gameplay and frame-rate. That's not to say the 3DO version was too shabby though.

[handsomedevil]

Saturn all around. Except maybe the tunnel shadows, which add little to nothing anyway.

[rogertriton]

Uma curiosidade: o Road Rash de Playstation 1 contém apenas um video clip sendo que a versão americana tem o apenas o clip "Duel" e a versão Europa contém apenas o clip Jessie.

[blackstealth]

There really is no superior version. Both versions have their pros and cons just play what you want. I will play it on my 3DO because I don't have RoadRash on my Saturn.

The saturn is crisper and runs at a higher frame rate but this is a 3do game and I think the original frame rate is part of the experience. 3do games looked and played a certain way and it is part of the charm. There was a sluggishness to certain things. The original 3do game plays and looks great.

[ValkyrieVewas]

3do all the way, it was basicly the best road rash ever made. Soooo fun once you get to the end game with nitro bikes. GET A 240 P 3do for even better frame rate then saturn!

Você decide, aqui é o jogando com bololô. Trocamos ideia ontem na live do Miniscastleorg, passando para te deixar um abraço. Final

[sinister]

No Saturn parece que os backgrounds estão numa resolução mais suave, fora que parece ser mais fluido e nitido no console da Sega.
Ou talvez seja só impressão minha...

Os videos são diferentes mesmo? Ou é aleatório?
