Left 4 Dead 2 on Xbox feels a little slow?

Played L4D2 on the XBox over the weekend, and compared to the PC it felt as if the frame rate was struggling? Anyone else feel this?

I might go through the options and see if I can turn stuff off to try and speed it up, but I doubt anything there will make enough difference...

It was even more noticeable (unsurprisingly) with 2 player split screen.

Never felt there were any issues with L4D2 being slow on Xbox, but I've never played it on PC to compare.

It is very sluggish on Xbox Vs PC. The framerate really takes a hit, and as you say split screen highlights the slowdown even more.

It's just about playable, but compared to the silky smoothness of the PC version it can be a bit jarring.

It's running at 35fps if I remember correctly. It's really bad and nigh on impossible to play on coop.

Really? I don't recall having any issues playing split screen. I would say nigh on impossible is a major exaggeration.

In fact, the reason I don't play as much L4D2 is due to how fast and manic it is.

I wouldn't say it's unplayable (apart from the general issues with the controller vs mouse/keyboard

) but it's definitely not smooth enough IMHO, which surprised me given the hardware.
