the xbox is just a better system than ps2 hardware wise. All games that are on ps2 and xbox are going to look better on xbox, thats just a fact. HOw big a difference is it in this game? Probably not that big, although it just looks better on XBOX. I havent tried online ps2, but i've noticed that most games lose quality when they go online especially when people use dialup. On xbox its all broadband, so the graphis arent going to be as jagged.

NBA Street V3 is broadbamd only on PS2 as well.. seems like EA is starting to phase out dial up users. Either way, the XBOX version will be a better graphical and probably slightly smooher experience.

If you wanna take nba live 2005 into consideration......the graphics a 10 times better on xbox especially online.

The ps2 version of live 05 graphics really take a dip when playing online. But on xbox live everything is crystal clear. Trust me, I have played both copies.

So....even though they are different games. You can take Live 05 into account.

I doubt it would be a very noticeable difference though, since EA designs the game for the PS2 and then ports it over. I wouldnt make a decision between the two based on graphics, they'll probably look pretty similar, but sure the slight edge would always go to the Xbox.

Unless the game is designed for the Xbox first, I don't expect the graphics to be noticably better. Just look at Burnout 3. Differences are minimal if that.

You'll be hard pressed to find any differences if you were to go from one to the other. To really see anything I would imagine you would have to put them side by side on two TV's, but even then you would probably have a hard time finding anything significant.

Load times should be significantly shorter on the xbox.

I think I read somewhere that the game isn't hi-def capable either, so the Xbox doesn't have that advantage either.

i have pretty much every EA game on both systems. ANd the XBOX one is just better for me on my home theater because of the way i have it set up. my ps2 is on s-video and my xbox is on component. Trust me you can see the differences that way.

**ironhorse75** · 02-05-2005, 06:37 PM

True, if you're using component or the xbox HD cables you're going to be using the Xbox to it's fuller potential.

But if we were to level the field and compare on s-video, the difference would be less.
