Im assuming you read the title but not the the actual post.

My point is:

If there is a mutliplat where the 360 version is better > IGN makes two review to capitalize on the PS3 version being inferior

 

If there is a multiplat where the PS3 version is better < IGN makes one review to hide the 360 versions inferiority

Can a name a multiplatform game where the PS3 version actually better (I'm not talking negligible things here)?

The only game I can think of is Batman: Arkham Asylum and that's only because of DLC which shouldn't be counted in the first place (and I'm not saying that is the only game, just the only one I can think of off the top of my head).



Should FFXIII on xbox get a lower score??? Absolutely

Is IGN biased because of this?? No, I don't think so



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

But not reviewing a majot franchise like FF seperatly for each console, says somehting negative about ign.  Be it bais or not can be argued.

Again a sony fan cry off reviews! Its old bro get over it!

The 360 version isnt flawed in anyway it plays the same as the ps3 version infact it has a better frame rate! Yes maybe a few less detailed textures and compressed video but nothing that effects the game play or the feel of the game!!!

bayonetta was BAD in the ps3 infact ot was awful!! The game play suffered it slowed down soo much it mught have well have loaded between combos!! This is not the same issue as a texture out of place is it? The same was with the orange box! It ran worse than the old xbox version and again the frame rate choped!!

360 oweners are used to good quailty games and im telling u ff13 is just about perfect!

This

Of the many inferior PS3 versions only the appalling ones get a reduced score, Bayonetta and Orange Box are great examples of that.

 

Had FFXIII for the 360 been a freezing, lower res, slow framerate port of the PS3 version it would have been IGN bias. But it's not. So stop considering these paid professionals are either idiots or sell-outs.

I think you need to step away from this whole console war if you are really looking this hard for discrepancies. Go enjoy your games, not the drama.

Every one can see that list is a joke.



I think there is a NA bias for the 360 although I do not know why the disc drive sucks RROD of death and the consoles once great exclusive list is gone the only thing left is the overall quality of Xbox live.

I think your a bit confused considering Mass Effect 2 9.6, Mass Effect 9.4, Gears of War 9.4, Shadow Complex 9.4, Portal Still Alive 9.2, GTAIV Ballad of Gay Tony 9.2, GTAIV Episodes in Liberty City 9.2, Call of Duty 2 9.0, Prey 9.0, Left For Dead 9.0, and Left for Dead 2 9.0 are all left off of your list.  That is 11 not on your list and no games appearing on PC do not count because they are still considered Microsoft console exlcusives.

Sorry, PC is a gaming system. Those are multiplatform games.
