Should I get Skyrim for PS3 or Xbox?

Post » Tue May 08, 2012 8:25 am

I was wondering which system is having the most glitches with the game. What game console do you think I should get it for? Also, disregard the Xbox's DLC advantage. I don't need the DLC right away.

First post by the way, so be gentle.

currently? 360 but that's due to MS having a brutal and slow patching process, later down the road the 360 most likely will be the more "bug free version"

Pick what you want, you will get the same quality overall in the end.

If I should disregard the DLC's, I'd choose ps3.
If I'm counting the DLC's in, then I'd choose xbox360.

Many didn't experience this problem at all.
Also, if so, it will be patched out, so kind of irrelevant.

Xbox 360 cause it has smoother downloads and stuff, but why would you have 2 different consoles anyway? :eek:

I have had Xbox since its release. Then I wanted a Blu-ray player, so I bought the PS3. I play the Xbox more because of xbox live but I'm slowly transitioning to PS3 because the Xbox is just a piece of [censored] haha.

Many people didn't experience the problem lol? The forum is a mess right now regarding the 360 and its texture problems. There's evidence all over the internet proving it has texture problems if installed. Everyone was worried about the PS3, but the 360 version ended up being the weak link lol!

It is probably best to play an offline game like Skyrim on PS3 however for an online game like MW3 its better to use Xbox because its more smoother.

That's what I am leaning towards. I don't want to be getting messages while playing.

Can't stand the 360PS3 interface. Looks too kiddy to me. Looks like the Wii interface.

Just remember that all the "problems" are exaggerated to the thousands.

The so called "issues" on the ps3 with lagging while on horse, which supposedly was a MAAAJOR crisis, originally came from some user here on the forums saying he loved the game so far, saying it ran smoothly and was generally awesome, but it freezed a second or two every now and then over a couple of hours.

Basically; if the issue you read is not DIRECTLY from someone who has the game, divide the issue by 10, and you're getting closer.

Xbox get's DLC's quicker and patches quicker the Ps3 might have a tint of better graphics but still I would get it for the xbox 360 since things get patched and there is DLC exclusive to the PC and 360 only.

EDIT: woops didn't see the disregard DLC advantage sorry about that, but yeah the 360 has a higher maintence since todd likes it more :P

I would personally go for 360 simply because its the lead platform this game was developed for and then ported to PS3. This means usually more bugs on PS3 and no better graphics. This is just my "taste" and not some flame bait. I also like the coloring on the 360 better on most games. Again, just what I prefer. As for the problems right now for 360 its just if u install the game to hdd and will be patched soon ;)

Yes, many didn't. I know two people who have the game and none of them have this problem. Believe me, Ive watched them play. If u look around many others on the form say the same while some others have the problem. And whats with the 360 being the weak link? its just a bug. There will be plenty more on both consoles. Lets not use this thread to start a console war. Both are good for the outdated machines that they are :)

I've seen the pics of the 360 version installed. Multiple pics. Multiple users. 360 looks like [censored]. They got early DLC, but got the worst version.

Nope, the DLC's are exclusive to the xbox for the 30 first days. After that, it's open for PC and ps3.

360 will get patched when is unknown hopefully day 1 patch comes and does such.

Running on disk is fine though.

Just get what you want.
