"Black Ops" 3 has come with compatibility on the latest gaming consoles like Xbox One, PS4 and PC as well as the last-gen consoles, but the competition between the two seems to favor the latest generation hardware.

"Black Ops" 3 fandom has put together reviews that compare the performance and gameplay characteristics in the two generations of consoles. From the results, those with the latest-gen hardware have a predicament to face.

As reports reveal, a not-so-great-looking "Black Ops" 3 was made for Xbox 360 and PS3. It lacks graphical fidelity which other versions have. Additionally, it lacks a single-player campaign and this has not pleased the fans. However, some fans do not care about these but are more concerned about the thrill of the game.

As the YouTube video, put together by Candy land, shows, the Xbox 360 version is missing the fancy lighting found on the latest generation consoles, Kotaku reported. Also, the Xbox one version comes with lesser pleasant interiors and not only that, armored vehicles can get entirely replaced by vans. Screenshots and videos have also proven the poor quality graphics compared to those of next gen consoles

Meanwhile, it is good news for PC players of "Black Ops" 3 as game drivers are already out. According to International Business Times, the drivers reportedly provide the best gaming experience for Treyarch's shooter title, thanks to the Game Ready optimizations of the technology.

All in all, Xbox 360 and PS3 will still get the multiplayer mode and shadows of Evil zombie mode.

"Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" will launch on Nov. 6 and will debut on all platforms, namely the Xbox One, PS4, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
