    Re: Xbox vs. Ps2- The story of two different games

    i've played both ps2 and xbox versions. anyone noticed that the xbox analog stick is more 'slippery' when controlling the batting cursor? to me it's as if xbox control is more sensitive than ps2. i seem to be batting a lot better when playing on the ps2

        Actually Bonds I did have that complaint. The stick seemed to move faster across the screen. But that is probably the way it is supposed to play and the limited ps2 framerate probably slows it a bit. But yes, by comparison the XBox cursor is more "slippery".

                for sure man...totally agree. The ps2 is great because it controls so well. That controller was like and extention of my arm and know I feel like I'm having to learn how to play again.

                        No problem, it's exactly what happened to me. Both are still great games, but if you have a good sound system, and all you play is sega sports games, then its nice if you can pick up a box.

                            Up until today, I had been playing 2k3 on my playstation. While I love the game, I was dissapointed in the graphics and sound. To me, it just didn't feel right.

                            After hearing time and time again about how 2k3 had such great graphics, I thought that I must have had the wrong version of the game.

                            After a lot of thought, I went to buy an Xbox today along with a copy of WSB. "Holy Cow" is all I can say.

                            1. The textures on the xbox are far superior to those of the ps2. It makes you wonder how they can both be the same generation console.

                            2. Moves much more smoothly. Not only is it easier on the eyes, but I can actually read pitches better! With my ps2 version, I would have trouble picking the ball up right away off the pitchers hand. Now, I see it more clearly then I ever imagined. I now realize how people can use such small cursors, when they have the xbox version.

                            3. Sound is the big difference for me. With my surround sound system, I can now totally take advantage of this game. The crowd is amazing and I feel like I'm at the ballpark. Not to mention, I can actually hear the crack of the bat.

                            I can't tell you what a difference there is.

                            Wait till you start getting multi platform sports games on the box.

                            I saw the light last march.

                            Kept the ps2 though.

                                The game IS multi-platform... what do you mean?
