Which PS3 games lag? - Davy Jones - 08-29-2013

You know the story, multi-platform titles get developed for Xbox 360 (because it's easier due to the chip architecture) and then get a lazy port for PS3. The result: The PS3 games tend to lag.

The most famous example is maybe Bayonetta:

Is it okay to say that all multiplatform-titles lag on PS3 or is there a list of them? And is installing the game on harddisk a solution to avoid the lags or does it just benefit shorter loading times?

PS3 super slim doesn't seem to be more powerful than the other models and only benefits loading times, so I won't speak about this one.

The PS3 ports of Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 are fine. In fact, the PS3 Mass Effect is better.

Spoke with some other people and it looks like the whole lag thingy is just a fairytale and Bayonetta is really one of the very few games which actually have a performance weakness.

I was a bit concerned about these rumours, but at least they were fake (well, except Bayonetta).
