You would be very surprised at how much you would notice the difference between 60 and 30.

Dont know why anyone with an Xbox would complain about the 720p, pretty sure thats as good as it gets on Xbox anyway.

wrong, microsoft makes sure every game that will come out for the 360 is gonna be 1080p. the ps3 gets shafted on this because a majority of it's games are 720p. i don't know how much "say" they have in BF3, but i will almost guarantee you it will be in 1080p for the 360 and 720p for the ps3.

Majority of games on both consoles are 720, so saying that MS makes sure they are all 1080 is completely wrong.

Not to mention, If I remember correctly, PS3 is going to be lead platform. So, there is no way the PS3 version will be 720 while the 360 version will be 1080.

What does lead platform mean?

That the non-lead platform gets a port of the lead platform version and usually a lot less attention.

ETA:

In most cases.

So 360 was the lead platform for Black Ops, then.

And I thought BF3 was going to get ported to consoles from PC...I don't know how that all works, but to me I understand it as the PC version is the crown jewel and the console versoins are watered down copies.

it is. i guess you could say the PC will be the lead, but the ps3 is 2nd in line while the 360 is in 3rd. i knew this was gonna be in 30 fps and 720p from the get go.

Technically yes. But the PS3 seems be the lead platform for the console ports and the 360 may get the shaft.


Who knows they may focus on both consoles. Either way, my original point was that there is no way that the 360 will get a 1080 version while the PS3 gets a 720 version.

I liked Bad Company 2, but didn't like the way the players moved. Felt like my guy was 1000 lbs.

Oh so this game is gonna suck for the Boxers. Just like BLOPS sucked for us. No need to continue this argument.

We'll see. There have been plenty of games with even less known developers that have been able to both versions equally playable.

I won't be surprised either way.

Well Treyarc sure fricked it up. Hopefully the 360 port won't suck donkey dick. But if it does I won't really give a shite.

I played BC2 for both consoles and thought they were equal.

Multiplayer was laggy/broke for quite a while. And I am talking months...not days.
