I failed to see how anything you've said applies to my post, I didn't even mention the X360, I was talking about this Old ps3 with the compatible ps2 chip with the new ps3 that emulates ps2's hardware.
Nonetheless if you look at the X360 racers the ps3's ridge racers is hardly something the x360 cannot handle, even if that's technically true 90% of the gaming community won't notice and another 9% won't care. In fact on that note there are alot of people that think the x360's Ridge Racer 6 looks better then ps3's Ridge Racer 7. Notice here:
Ridge Racer Comparison Pictures
Granted a site called Microsoft is awesome would tend to be baised, but nonetheless pictures don't lie.
MS made the comparisons by downgrading RR7 to 720p with component cables
firstly RR7's full glory was noticeable at 1080p ONLY + HDMI..............rr7 looked crap at 720p without HDMI.
however this is what NAMCO said regarding RR7:-
Not one to blow his own trumpet, Teramoto also expressed his pleasure to offer RR7 in 1080p, at 60fps and in 5.1, something he claims is only possible on the PS3

YOU HEARD THAT :_____ONLY POSSSIBLE ON PS3.
MS cant compare rr6 and rr7 since rr7 runs at 1080p at 60fps and rr6 runs at 720p at 30fps
