Multiplats - Better On 360? Why?

It's ease of production.  Easier to develop games with 360 hardware and then port them to PS3. Playstation Edge Tools might make it easier on PS3 or close that gap in the future, but who knows.

Simple Question: Why, in general, are Multiplats better on the 360? This is not only my humble opinion but also the opinion of Gamespot, IGN, Games Radar, GamesRankings......and so on and so on..... But feel free to disagree. So......what do you think?AA7

depends from game to game. oblivion looked/functioned better despite the "easier development" on the 360

i think as developers grow more comfortable with the development tools on the ps3, that gap will narrow or cease to exist (or maybe, even swing over to the ps3 side!)

Ill have to disagree because when I get a PS3 and 360 I wont be getting XBL for 360, meaning ill be getting multiplats on the PS3 due to free online.-Sir-Poof-

......o yea and home achievements.-Sir-Poof-

Thats pretty dumb if u ask me.

I wouldnt call achievments dumb. They have been ridicliously sucessful for their simplicity.

360 better GPU and easy to dev for CPU.X360PS3AMD05

JD eh?

Cause there's no need to pay 600 dollars to play them.Wintry_Flutist

Never thought of that one, good reason. 

It's really only the ease of developement. 360 is a PC in a box and can use all kinds of premade effects, PS3 is completely different and studios must learn the hardware. 360 is already maxed out yet we're seeing about equal overall multiplats right now in the first wave of ports from 360 to PS3. Once the devs learn the hardware better, all multiplats are going to look the same or better on PS3. Everything is just going to depend on if the developers take advantage of PS3s hardware or gimp the game to get it on 360.Lazy_Boy88

PS3 has to fake a lot of effects the 360 GPU can do effortlessly so programmers have to screw around a lot to get lighting and textures where they need to be. If they take their time they can do a good job. But time is money and human labor costs are always the highest part of any production. Sony ticked off a lot of developers and they used to be more vocal about it but recently you haven't heard as much. Probably threatened them somehow or another.

mmmk why?

Its simple, you rather have a inferior port with less features than the version originally intended from the devs just because you are too cheap to pay for XBL. That would be the equivalent of someone making a argument for using netzero or zuno, versus paying for a reliable service....Sometimes its good to be a reasonable consumer, but to not get the full value from your purchase because you wanna pinch pennies is never good.

So every port will be intended for 360 first then PS3? Link plz? Its not being cheap its called taking a stand against paying to play online.

u guys for get that oblivion is bethaside first game on the ps3, which looks better than there first game on the 360, add the fact that u people say ps3 is hard to dev for, oblivion shows ps3 is just s better system if the game is ported  right.

In a nutshell, YES!!! 

No link is needed, havent you been keeping tabs on the trends this gen?!?!? In the realm of multiplats, the PS3 is either getting 360 ports (at a later date) or dumbed down versions of the same game (if they launch together). Regarless of how anti-XBL some gamers may be, they would still acknowlege you cant just slice together some XBL features and make them work successfully. By comparison, the features of the PS3 version of multiplats are lacking in every aspect. So as I originally stated, you rather have a spliced together version of game versus buy the superior version. Its not like you are bias against the systems, so whats the big deal to get a XBL account to enjoy your games to their full potential?

Hell if you are that damn cheap I have a few free trials for XBL (you get them when you buy games!!! :P ) I would be more than happy to give you the codes so you can stop making excuses...

Game On....

I think results will very from title to title so to say EVERY multiplat game will be better on the 360 is pushing it but about XBL I just look at it as a business stand point, who says Sony wont look at MS and decided to charge for their online service since lets say 60% of 360 owners have XBL, that will be a huge profit for Sony if they can sell 75 million PS3s and have 60% of those owners paying for online. So its not that I cant afford it its just I dont want paying for online to become a standard.
