    Default Game comparison site?

    Is there a site that compares game releases on Xbox and PS3?

    I've just bought an Xbox to supplement my PS3 gaming and it would be awesome to check which platform each new release is better on. I see plenty of articles around on random sites doing these types of comparisons but is there not one place that does this regularly?

    I doubt there is enough difference between the versions of most releases for there to be an entire site dedicated to this or even a regular article. So it normally only gets mentioned when there is enough of a difference for someone to care.

    I haven't seen one which does that exclusively. I know Gamespot does them fairly regularly.

    Btw, where did you end up getting your Xbox?

    I dont know of a site and I only see big new sites doing it for major releases. My experience is that with non-exlusives alot of titles look better on xbox, while exclusiveness tend to better overall.

    Incredible Corruption. R2700 for a 250GB slim with BF3, Forza 3 and Crysis 2 plus a 3 month Live membership.

    Thanks for the info, dudes. Probably easier just to Google on a per-game basis.

    I tend to get most on Xbox and only exclusives or HD "Remakes" on PS3. Currently my wife is using it as her Netflix set top box.

    Nothing, even the control layout is often the same.
