Bottom line, I have a PS3 I dont have a 360. If it is running at 30 FPS with no dropped frames you get a smoother picture. And try to think about it like this: If a game is running at 60 FPS but dropping frames here and there it will create choppy movement. It doesn't mean the system is incapable.īut more importantly why are we really fretting about this? Does anyone really think you can conciously process the difference between 30 and 60 frames per second with your naked eye? The difference will be slight at best. first of all, I agree with sony that if developers dont want to put in the work to get a game to run a certain FPS thats on them if its been proven to be capable of doing it.

Todd Sitrin, EA Vice President of Marketing Sports Branding, told 1UP that there are trade offs in designing football simulations and that 'every company making a football game this year made a decision that the best experience for the Xbox 360 included 60fps whereas the best experience for the PS3 was 30fps.' Extra time an familiarity with the Xbox 360 hardware could have influenced the development, as could the purported difficulty in programming for the PS3's multi-processor architecture. The reasons behind this frame rate difference are hard to pin down. A comparison between both versions of last year's Madden 07 conducted by Gamespot showed the 360 version had 'sharper textures on the character models in the close-up shots shown between plays.' In comparing this year's games, 1UP simply stated that 'All-Pro Football 2K8 definitely runs better on Xbox 360.' While the additional frames mean smoother, more fluid animation in the 360 versions, it's still unclear how the jump will impact graphical fidelity or resolution. The move represents a jump from previous Madden games, which ran at 30 frames per second on all platforms, including the Xbox 360 and PS3. 1UP is reporting that this summer's major pigskin simulators - EA's Madden NFL 08 and NCAA Football 2008 and 2K Sports' All-Pro Football 2K8 - will run at 60 frames per second on the Xbox 360 and 30 frames per second on the PS3.
