Someone who has a 360 tell us how it compares to the PS3 version.

I'm almost at 80% on the Stranglehold demo. Is wifi in general just slow as shit or is it the PS3's? I ask because I've got an ethernet cable hooked up to my PS3 now, mainly for Tekken DR, and I've notcied that my download speeds are SO much better on a hardline.
And shit at the 2008 release for SFIIHD.

Then why in the hell did you buy it?
I just don't understand this...there were plenty of reviews out there that told you exactly what was on the disc, and you decided that content sounded worth the money at the time. If you weren't sure, you should have rented first.
How long have you guys been buying games? You still haven't figured this out?
Now, six months later, they release DLC, which BTW, we've known was coming since they first showed the Playstation Store at E3 2005, and you act all appalled. Please.
:lol

Well I may just eat my own words, posted last page, and buy the Motorstorm content pack now that I know SFIIHD is so damn far away from being released.
Edit: My download of the Stranglehold demo froze at 76%, pausing and resuming fixed it.

Yes, plenty of reviews were out - about the version in Japan.Pristine_Condition said:
From what I recall, I purchased the game before the majority of the reviews hit for the US version, and what was the difference? Online.
I assumed with the extra time they had, online would be polished enough to warrant the purchase - it was absolutely fucking terrible on launch.
I act appalled and it's completely justified - thanks.

Well I spoke too soon, I got one whole extra percentile of downloaded data before the download froze again. Pausing and resuming does nothing to kick start the process into action again.

Happened to me too! But then again I've never downloaded this quick after the demo get released..... My download pretty much froze at 55% after going pretty quick in the beginning . Then I paused it and switch to downloading the NBA demo and everything went fine until that one paused too at 30%.andrewfee said:

OK I've finished the Stranglehold demo.
Impressions:
Graphics are great and frame rate is really smooth, even with a lot of enemies on screen and lots of particle effects the frame rate is absolutely stable. I can't do comparisons with the 360 versions because I've not played it but the PS3 version by itself it's a really great work on the technical side.
The game is a stylish next gen Max Payne, but since people have already played it and there are reviews out there's no need to expand on this, I can say that I like it a lot.
At the end of the demo the hard mode is unlocked, the barrage mode is unlocked and there a few details about the collerctor's edition, it says that the game includes Hard Boiled which supports resolutions from 480p up to 1080p.

I'm not even goint to try and download it now.
the 360 version was not framerate locked. there were a couple of scenes here and there that were running at 60fps, like the end of the first cutscene or some indoor hallways. the rest of the game runs around 30fps, sometimes even dropping below 30.
the worse thing about the framerate was that it was quite irregular. i'd have prefered a steady framerate locked at 30fps.
i'm still at 57% so i can't say anything about the ps3 version

Well it's the United Kingdom store and that is generally indicative of what is out in Europe. However that's not always the case. I recommend that even if you live in Europe, you should make a UK account as they typically get everything that other countries get. There are too many times when I see people post that certain stuff is not out in their particular country.
That being said, I'd be glad to add euro prices to the OP if somebody is willing to post them.

nope, it's been rebalanced and altered. They have good right to charge for extra development past the shipped product. You knew what you were buying, and if you weren't, as someone said, be disappointed at yourself. It's not like you just buy a car based on looks.
For me, I'm happy with the original product and the additional content is nice. It's a good deal too.

I agree about stable 30fps being better than fluctuating 60fps. Just pointing out one the differences I noticed.
Besides, in the PS3 demo sutscenes are videos not rendered in real time. Dunno why they did this.

Where ya located? If your in EU, make yourself up a NA and JP account and get your DL on. Seriously if you factor in being able to download from all territories there are plenty of things to get.
Still working on DL'ing Stranglehold....its at like 65%. Argh.
That turok video is pretty cool...stealth kills look nice.
Stranglehold is TERRIBLE!
The slowdown was so bad I thought my PS3 had given up. Seriously, it must've ran at 5FPS at one point.
The gameplay...ugh, the point and click shooting is so meh...the camera is terrible too. How do you centre it behind you? Ugh. I'm deleting this shit.
