Let me see the XBox 360 version is a SDTV screenshot and the PS3 version is the HDTV screenshot. Apples being compared with oranges. Huge difference between SD and HD resolutions.
Would you kindly compare HDTV XBox 360 version with HDTV PS3 version? We would be comparing apples with apples.
BTW: Neogaf is extremely biased towards the PS3 and I would not expect a fair and reasonable analysis in comparing a PS3 and 360 multi-platform game.
I do not believe those would be the final screenshots of the XBox 360 game.
IGN and Gametrailers would provide a fair and reasonable analysis of FFXIII on PS3 and 360.

Ignorance + damage control = your post
First off, both 360 and PS3 screenshots has a 720p HUD. It's some textures that are lower res, not the screen itself.
Second, the guy who analyzed the screens is from digital foundry, and used the same method they always do, no bias there. (The SAME method that displayed the "sub-HD" textures of many PS3 titles).
Choose what to believe for yourself, but the facts are clear. The only thing I would question is the source of the screenshots (which If I'm correct, is from a pro-Xbox site, or SquareEnix's shoddy PR department). I doubt the screens are from some Sony loyalist that's attempting to sabotage the 360 version, but it's still possible.

I don't trust the whole thing altogether.. I mean, if they could post X360 buttons on PS3 screens, why couldn't they post native 720p buttons on SD screens? I seriously don't know what to believe right now. It's all too shady. And then there's the screens which have a cursor on them O.o And even the cursor seems to be low quality (or might be just me..). Take a look at this one for example and look at the quality of the cursor on the top left and give me your opinion:

Well, if for some reason that it's a SD screen, that happened to be scaled to HD, with the textures kept at 1024x576 (which is higher than SD but lower than "HD") and a 720p HUD pasted on.... then the biggest concern is SquareEnix's reasoning behind all the trickery if (and it's a big IF because you're assuming a lot) they're trying to make both games look equal. Why in the world would SquareEnix make the 360 version look worse and send it out to IGN and other websites.
Regardless, based on these screens, I don't really think that the 360 version looks THAT bad, Are the differences noticeable? yes, but it's not like it looks like a Wii or PS2 game.
We won't get to the bottom of this until the game is out and someone like digital foundry compares.
