Take identical pictures with both cameras with the same settings etc.

Have you tried taking pictures with both cameras of the same thing, with the same lighting conditions etc.?  Go to a certain location and use the same settings like F-stop and focal length etc.

Almost two years ago, I did that with my older Olympus 8mp and 10mp DSLR cameras and compared them to my new 18mp Canon DSLR cameras.  I was surprised that the images did not look all that different in bright lighting (other than the obvious differences in resolution).  I took all of the pictures as out-of-the-camera JPEGs.  Mainly I found that the Canon images looked better in cloudy weather and when I required the use of high ISO settings.
