Lol @ Microsoft

They claim that their 360 version of RE5 runs at 1080p (while Sony's is at 720p). The truth is that both versions run at 720p and can be UPSCALED to reach 1080p.
What's even funnier is that the 360 RE5 demo was almost unplayable at 1080p due to screen tearing.

Microsoft always claims that their products do stuff that they don't do. Or don't do stuff that they do do (like break/crash a lot).

One of the funniest Microsoft blunders was many years ago, when Bill Gates was demonstrating the... what was it? Windows 95 OS? Anyhow, during the public demo, he got a blue screen of death! XD

The 360 demo still looked better than the PS3 one, screen tearing or no. Allegedly the PS3 version of SFIV is slightly inferior too.

It's been stated that PS3 demo was older than its 360 counterpart and that the final versions are identical. Oh wait; Famitsu 360 gave a lower score to the game (IIRC, 37).

I've only heard that with the 360 controller is almost impossible to play it.

Why would Capcom use a more advanced demo for the 360 version? Call me a cynic, but that sounds like corporate BS.

The PS3 pad isn't great either, but it is not 'impossible' to play with the 360 d-pad, it's just not the greatest device for fighting games. See my comments on the SFIV topic, and you'll see that the limitations of either pad soon reveal themselves.

Use the analog stick?

I find the analog worse than a dpad for fighting games. They're always too loose, not enough resistance. Forward usually ends up as forward-up, back becomes back-down, etc. Analogs suck.

So does your face

That is one of the many features the face has, yes.

I agree. Analog's for fighting games usually do suck.

Oh yes, I cannot use the analogue sticks. SFIV is a old school game, with digital input. Using the sticks makes little sense to me.

i can use the analogue moderately well in SC4, but i still prefer the D-pad. i grew up with it, ya know?

i like the PS controllers for SF games
