Differences between XBOX360 and PS3 version

[Magwill]

I think many of us would like to know ALL the important differences between the two versions. I just read that Game of the week will not be available in the PS3 version. This feels very strange and contradicts the feeling you get from the interviews. Nothing is said about any differences in the two versions. Therefore it would be nice to know what differences there are (if there are any) to calm us potential buyers so that we are certain we are not missing out on something. Of course some minor differences will usually exist but leaving out a feature like game of the week is a major thing.

I think this meant graphically the same.

(...) for all intents and purposes, graphically the two are identical. I know each control scheme is tweaked for the console you are using, but for the 360 and PS3, the visuals are the same. Only the DS version is different graphically!

hey there,

i want to clear this up for you: the Game of the Week is on ALL PLATFORMS. it will be on PS3.

i repeat, Game of the Week WILL be on PS3.

there are not major differences between the PS3 and 360 version. the gameplay across all 3 platforms is identical.

also, if you want to let me know where you read that about the PS3 version, i can hop on over there and ease anyone's worries about that bit of misinformation!

To elaborate:

There are no graphical differences between the two. On my television the PS3 version looks slightly better, but on someone else's here the 360 looks better (translation: they're the same).

Both platforms have force feedback. We support the DualShock3 on PS3.

Both platforms have the ability to have downloadable content, although we aren't talking about that yet.

All platforms (including DS!) have online multiplayer and the game of the week.
