Differences between PS3 and XBOX360

[Mr.Blonde]

I had the 360 version before switching to the PS3 version (due to the control layout) and besides the frame freezing, the PS3 has tearing, especially at cockpit view, but on the other hand the 360 has puntual framerate issues sometimes (like when an enemy planes explodes and you are very close)

the 360 version definitely has significant framerate problems as well

The only time I have seen the frame rate drop on my 360 is if I an very close a plume of black smoke when an aircraft bursts into flames in front of me. Other wise I have had no problems at all. I do have BOP copied to my HDD.

I'm on the first nighttime mission and the framerate becomes terrible. I don't know why, if the game has trouble handling the spotlights or what. On the other hand, some missions like Channel Dogfight handle dozens of planes with no problems.

Frame rate problems seems to a common with flight sims especially IL-2. I remember PC version the frame rate dropped to a crawl at times. New hardware did help but the frame rate drops are still there.
