In the Original FFXIII there was a noticeable difference between the two and SE apologized for using PS3 footage to advertise the 360 version in Britain. But what about XIII-2?

Yeah, they dumbed down the PS3 version so that they would look the same this time. How considerate of you SE!

This is my favorite topic!

J/p... Honestly, I didn't see that it was that big of a deal when FFXIII came around. Yeah there was a difference if you freeze frames but it's just not that crazy of a thing to me. Granted, it's probably because I think a lot of the 360-over-PS3 comparisons earlier in this generation were blown out of proportion as well. Honeslty sound is a bigger issue for me because I want to get the most out of my system and so many games have used surround in a really awesome way, so if I had both consoles, I'd go with PS3 for the uncompressed audio. Not sure how that plays out this time, I also heard FFXIII-2 is only 1 disc on 360...

Is that true, though, Del? Did you hear that at the event or something???

I did notice the graphics weren't as crisp as they were in FFXIII (I played the PS3 version of both games). Other players noticed this as well. One girl did mention that it was due to SE designing the games for both systems simultaneously rather than for PS3 exclusively and porting it to 360. It fits on one DVD versus what, three for FFXIII?

The game still looks great, but I thought the graphics in FFXIII were absolutely stunning. It feels like a (small) step down on the PS3. I don't know if that will be true for both systems since I've never played XBox.
