It depends on your tv and the game but I know for a fact that some games will upscale when you do what I said earlier. I get Mirror's Edge to upscale to 1080i (I don't have a 1080p set) this way.JamminOz07 said:
I'm getting it for 360
I'm hoping to buy a gamepad(mainly cause I've never gotten used to arcade sticks though i've tried)
even without the gamepad i'm still gonna try
and yes i do use my analog stick when playing all fighting games....(save for tekken on psp)

I bought the game on the PS3 today. Both versions are absolutely the same. It just depends on what console YOU want to play it on...
For me, I went for PS3 because that damn 360 DPad is HORRIBLE.

Would the Achievements be the same as the Trophies. Your gamerscore will go up and wouldn't you also want your PS3 standing to go up?JamminOz07 said:
Really, it's probably up to the friends you play with and controller preference.
I hope you get a copy, though. Good luck.
Does not matter, both controls are horrible to play SF 4 whit.
I suggest get some more cash and buy the arcade sticks.

I've noticed a few that say they'll only display at 720p but actually display at 1080p, couldn't tell you why though.JamminOz07 said:
There'll be barely any difference between the two, if the do display at different levels, I wouldn't let that affect your descision too much.
I think I'd go for the PS3 version, because of the D-Pad mostly but also because I dislike achievements and just generally dislike my Xbox.
It's certainly looking that wayAndyFromMonday said:
I picked up a copy for PS3 last night. It's pretty awesome, I'm pretty shit though. was getting better after a couple of hours. The graphics style looks fantastic in action. Even my missus commented on them.
I did have some success using the analogue stick, but ultimately it's not accurate enough and the d-pad makes it a bit easier, but I can't use it for too long without my thumb getting sore!
Still considering swapping it for a 360 copy. I love achievements and gamerscore. I dunno, it's just like a representation of your gaming history and I've really enjoyed building up the score. I'm not obsessive, like I rarely 100% games, but I enjoy the ones that I do get. PS3 trophy's just don't have the same appeal, and I've only had my PS3 for a couple of months, so don't have many anyway.
thanks for your comments everyone. If you want a crack at me on PSN, my Escapist forum name is the same as my PSN name (and XBL). You'll probably win cause I'm really crap.
As a lot of people have said, its really up to which control you prefer and which console you have most online friends on. All the xbox fanboys saying its better on live, and vice versa (not that ive seen any sony fanboys flaming here), have no argument due to both services offering a damn near similar package
Define "decent value"?Indigo_Dingo said:
Yeah, I think there probably is. I'm not a huge fighting game fan, but I think if you've ever enjoyed any Street Fighter game, then you will probably enjoy this one. There's a fair bit of nostalgia but it seems to have quite a deep combat system, easy to learn, but difficult to master.
I just can't beat that Sagat dude... really pi$$ing me off... and I'm playing on easy...
I went with the 360 version because I play with the thumbstick, not the D-pad. and playing with the thumbstick on the Ps3 is not as easy as it is on the 360. Plus I know more people with the 360 then the Ps3. But it all comes down to what you really want. Your gonna get a good game no matter which one you buy.
I'm gonna suggest 360. You said you like achievements, so that's a plus, and online play is silky smooth. Join a party with a few friends, and you'll have a blast.
On the subject of the controller, I'd suggest getting either an arcade stick or one of those new FightPads as soon as possible, but I think I should also mention that the controls aren't nearly as difficult to manage with a standard 360 pad as they are in other fighting games. Combinations that usually require extremely precise inputs (like, say, the Dragon Punch motion) can now be done relatively easily with the analog stick, and almost 100% of the time with the d-pad. At least give it a try before you go out and buy something new; you might find it suits your purposes just fine.

got the ex stick for the 360, works like a charm. Dont use pad unless you want to fail miserably.
Also, the game shortcuts on moves helps a lot. Like how you can do a 360 by doing half circle to any up, or do a dragon punch like downforward, down, downforward + p.

ithink that buyin a game for achivments is a bit pointless, its like buying a jenga set just to see if you can shove all the peicesup your nose fora world record.
