Skate better on PS3 or 360

Hedge · 6 Oct 2007 at 13:28

Im an avid pc gamer and thats pretty much all i do, however im drawn to the ps3 and 360 now, but mainly for one game. Skate

dunno why it appeals to me so much, i think its just because i remember having a lot of fun on tony hawks, but now would enjoy something more realistic.

Which version is best of this game?

The Skate demo can be found on the US PSN store, as well as Xbox Live. Give a whirl of both, best way to find out really

Since I (soon) own a 360, you know what I'm gonna say..

Someone posted from comparison screenshots somewhere (Probably in the "Skate!" thread) and graphically it looked a lot better on the 360.

Quick google found me this:

From what Ive read, ps3 has a lot more framerate problems and 360 looks better... imo

360 version is smoother and £10 cheaper (I bought it on the 360 and have a PS3 as well).

That's to be expected I suppose.

Personally im waiting till friday and getting it on the PS3, ive read there are a few slight framerate issues on PS3, but that could be sorted with a patch, for one reason.... the controller... i know most prefer the 360 controller (from what ive read) over the PS3 but i didnt seem to get on with the angles on the 360 as well as it felt better having the analogues next to each other.

as suggested try it out on both and see what you prefer, its really the only way to figure it out. i think most multiplatform games come down to either brand loyalty or the controller... or for some achivements which i dont give a flying potnoodle about.

theres also the side note is its giving me a reason to wipe the dust off my PS3 as at the moment its primary job is for Crash for the GF and a blu-ray player.

360 console is cheaper
360 game is cheaper
360 control pad is MUCH better imo - Analogues are more naturally places, triggers aren't retarded like the PS3 and it is generally much more comfortable imo.

360 > PS3 imo

If the demos are anything to go by the 360 version is much better the demo on the ps3 had terrible framerate problems.

I don't know where people are finding it cheaper on 360 though, seems to me it's either the same price or I've seen it for £1 cheaper on ps3.

Well that's not really a very good comparison screen tbh, on the other ones the PS3 looked terrible compared to the 360.

There u go. 360 winz again ;D

aob · 6 Oct 2007 at 16:10

I personally can't imagine playing this game with a PS contoller.

2Thumbs · 6 Oct 2007 at 16:24

PS3 version has some serious AA problems. Jaggies everywhere.

360 > PS3

Hedge · 6 Oct 2007 at 16:46

Yikes, looks like the 360 craps on the ps3 one from a height

This is down to EA being lazy though. It could look like the 360 on PS3 if given time. EA have strict release dates i think.

definitly looks as though 360 is the way to go with this game....and most other games really....
