I take a look at all scores and read multiple reviews before I make judgments.

And I pay next to no attention to "previews".

"But which platform offers the consummate version of Paradise? While the PlayStation 3 edition sports a slight visual edge (a few superior textures, no screen tearing) and arguably superior controller triggers"

Is that some joke? :| Or... what? How do they figure? Cause I understand gas and brake are on the triggers, don't know what the RB and LB were used for, but A was boost if I remember and B hand brake...

Now the thing I ask is, I've played the PS3's controller, and it's triggers aren't the best IMO. The wierd decision to curve outward instead of in is annoying for a while. So... ...*shrugs* Oh well

Agreed I really don't like that site. The 1up Show is pretty good though.

well theres i pods, itunes, limewire, CDs, things of that nature...

The way sony hyped the ps3's specs, it should be more than "slight"

And I miss the old burnout style. :(

No offense, but considering how lead editor for 1up, Dan Shu, has been handling the recent editorial issues; I would say 1up has gained significant credit in that right.

And no , I'm not making any excuses for the fact that the 360 version is graphically inferior.

Thank you. I can easily hit power on my stereo and i got music with my games. Honestly lemmings stop crawling for weak advantages.

'Slight' would be the only appropriate term, since both the PS3 and the 360 are very similar in ability. I'm happy that Criterion has the brains to figure out how porting should be done this generation for shared titles between the two. Hopefully more devs. will follow suit.DementedDragon

So the more expensive console with discs 5 times bigger has a slight advantage? Yay?locopatho

Who cares. The games are pretty much identical. I'm still getting the XBox 360 version.

Well PS3 was the lead platform for BOP. Swift_Boss_A

yep...but man reading the ps3 doesn't have cutsom sound tracks due to sony...why would sony not have that? they allow ut3 to have mods.. O.o oh well i'm getting the 360 verison.

Im a Lemming, but you do realize the PS3 at this point is $50 more..right?

Either way, we all love to hate on the PS3, and it's time to give it up. In this particular case, the PS3 version seems to be better at this point in time, like DMC4.

Nuff Said..

Damnit! Why doesnt the PS3 version let me use my own music? Even the xbox version of burnout 3 could do that. Oh well, I guess I'll be enjoying the sounds of DJ Atomica. Drag :?Darthmatt

wow, you really have to go that low?

that's just silly

His boss SHUE is the worlds biggest LEMMING for a LOOOONG time, so its all good. I am a Lemming, even I know that.

Anyways, the Triggers on the xbox aren't the greatest when looking at the analog Sensitivity, something perhaps is easier to access on the PS3's shoulder triggers, who knows.

The 360 triggers are sharper as well, less ergonomic.

lol... if he is in fact mr. ps3, that quote does nothing to prove it.

the ps3's triggers are better for some games...

it's a matter of opinion.

Are you really trying to say that it's a fact that the Xbox 360's triggers are better?

Listen to 1up podcast regularly, and you see why it's the [slightly] better version.

And GS, the website where editors are jumping ship is credible?

No, sadly. *Sniff*

Things are funny here.

Who is credible?

Achievements and custom soundtracks FTW.

That mongloid Bettenhausen is a cow. I could care less what he has to say. That comment about the triggers is pure nonsense.

Custom soundtrack or a slight visual edge. which is more important to you?Bansheesdie

i think of it this way.. i will turn down the music volume in the game and turn on my stereo... there are my custom soundtracks.. haha

thats what i do with most games anyways.. so ill take isual edge

JiveT

Achievements are not better than Graphics.

Also, some poster said that Since PSN is free, that is greater than Custom Soundtracks.

It's all a wash to me (Im getting 360 version, since that's all I have.)
