PS3 vs Xbox 360: Which is better for sports gaming?

[8and9]

Sports games look better on 360 especially Madden & NBA 2k.

If you are a Madden fan check out the PS3 madden jaggies thread. There are a bunch of screenshots that show the game on 360 vs PS3 and the difference is night and day.

Me personally its PS3..i find the controller a bit more comfortable. Plus I get to play MLB The Show!

With baseball being my far and away #1 sport, I really didn't have much of a choice in the matter.

But there are definitely some issues with EA Sports titles. Not nearly as bad as they used to be, but the 360 still has a very small edge in this department. Although, I don't think FIFA is a port any longer. I think they develop it for both consoles, or so I've heard. Though I'm not sure if any of the other EA Sports games do this.

I would add that roster sharing is easier on the PS3, but that seems to be diminishing due to Sony wanting to prevent trophy cheating(Why they ****ing care about something like that is beyond me..).

I'm a ps3 fanboy, so take this for what it's worth.

I prefer playing on the PS3. I feel like the controller suits my needs a lot better and I get a better feel for the games. It's also tough to overlook MLB The Show. I don't play it much, but it's a phenomenal game and any hardcore baseball fan should always choose the PS3 for this reason.

360 - hands down. Aside from baseball.

If you're a big baseball fan, you have no choice but to go PS3.

The difference isn't THAT bad... especially to the untrained eye. But yes, on average 360 sports games are that much better. With that said, the only game I will consistently buy on the 360 is NBA 2k. The rest are purchased for the PS3, including FIFA.

After the FIFA beatings I dished out to you, I'm not surprised.
