Skate Review: Gamespot gives 7/10 to PS3 and 7.5/10 to Xbox 360
The differences between the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Skate are a bit of give and take. The PS3 version has slightly better control, solely because its looser analog sticks are more conducive to fast trick snapping. The game has motion control support, which lets you steer by tilting the controller instead of using the left analog stick. It’s disabled by default for a reason, as the huge dead zone and imprecise motion makes playing the game practically impossible with it turned on. Skate is also limited to four players online, as opposed to six on the Xbox 360, which can be a bummer in some spots; but considering how crowded some of the areas can get with six skaters, this can be a blessing in disguise. But any points the PS3 version earns are totally negated by its awful frame rate. Whether you’re playing alone or online, the game drops frames all over the place when anything starts moving quickly. This is a very timing-oriented game, and having a frame rate this bad really hurts the gameplay.

EA games hurts the PS3 again like this by making mediocre ports. And the press are going to rave about how the PS3 is inferior in terms of sales and hardware, because of PS3 users refusing to buy these poor excuses of games. I wonder if Microsoft is purposely paying them to do this, or if they are just this bad.
Hehe, it’s quite funny Ruibing. Everytime I decide to write something you’ve already said everything that I wished to say. I’ve just got one thing to add: Microsoft is trying to kick Sony out of the gaming market. But they will never succeed.
if the ps3 is supposed to be superior in terms of hardware, why cant it keep up with the 360 even in comparison of the same exact game!!!!???
