"Black Box has confirmed that the PS3 will be the lead format for Skate 2, due to criticisms levelled at its predecessor.

Speaking to GAMER.tm recently, Black Box producer Jason DeLong confirmed that the PS3 version of Skate 2 would be the lead version of the game, after the PS3 version of Skate 1 was criticised for not being as good as its 360 counterpart."

that's a good news to hear,,,,, hopefully most  developers will follow(EA has already done this with lots of their games like Mirror's edge,,dead space and so on),,,this way both versions will look better.(yea 360 also benefits when the game is developed on PS3 and ported to 360)

The bolded part of your post is EPIC failure.

You have been listening to MikeB too much.

 

You obviously dont use google much.

Those are just from a limited search.

The skinny is that you need to streamline your code to work with the CELL. And in that way you make a far more clean running code for the 360 port. Makeing both versions run better.

Epic phail confirmed.

 

Ok, do you guys actually know how to program? Because what you say hurts my brain

 

You are both talking about different issues.

 

Starcraft, you are talking about the inherent loss of efficiency that results from porting between two different consoles

lemmiwinks, you are saying that the PS3 is a stricter platform to develop for, forcing programmers to write elegant and efficient code.

Starcraft it seems you do need to take lemmiwink's point into consideration

lemmiwinks, you completely neglect to consider that a developer and the programmers could simply make a 360 game efficiently, and then it would look better than an efficiently made PS3 game ported to the 360

 

So you are both right :)

 

You're also both wrong :P
