Default Which Operating System is Best for BOP?

...and, ONLY BOP, or other Flight Sims yet to come?

PS3 or xBox 360?

Hmmmm. From what we know so far:

The graphics on the PS3 are crisper than 360... But there is a lot of screen tearing that the 360 doesn't experience.

There are flight stick issues with the PS3 version... There are fewer problems with the 360 flight sticks.

I would say overall 360... But I am a bit biased since that is the only console I own.

imho 360, its cheaper, the controller is better, and the joysticks are better, no real diference in picture. I have a 360 and my brother has a PS3 so i've seen both. PS3 is more stable and doesnt over-heat, cus i dont care what MS say they HAVENT fixed it, my brother's elite went up the swanny and that was brand new.

id have to go with the 360.


Fo gameplay etc they both run pretty much the same. Both are HD so the pic will look great. What wins it for the 360 though in my opinion is the multiplayer.....

comunication on xbox live seems to be more fluent than on the ps3. More people on live talk.

Does the ps3 not come with a headset? or does it cost a pretty penny to purchase?

Soooo....

I'm leaning towards an xBox 360 and a T-Flite Hotas Stick. Proper Rudder (analog) is more important to me than POV. I think I can live with 4 position POV.

Of course, if they correct that, I'll have it all...

I'm an old PC based Flight sim player, from the olden days. This will be my first console.

I have both, and will be getting BoP for both 360 and PS3. And all this talk of screen tearing on the PS3, I don't doubt it happens. But so far, I have not experienced it once. Maybe it's my TV, but I've just got a small little 23" and nothing on my PS3 has had screen tearing.

TFlite is a PS3 only stick. The Saitek Aviator comes in either 360/PC or PS3/PC (2 different sticks, get the right one). The pc Aviator that's been out for years isn't usable on consoles, you need the ones actually built for the specific console. For the 360, that's the only stick you can buy new. Not perfect, but the price is right, at $50.

It happens all the time in cockpit for me I thought it was the demo I downloaded from europe, so I deleted it and downloaded it again from US and it still does it.
