Xbox vs PS updates

Potential-Monke · 2011-12-17 02:19:20

Right, posting this because i saw in the Skyrim thread that the latest patch is a 94mb download for the PS3, yet my patch for the Xbox version was 4mb. Actually, every patch/update for every game i've had on the Xbox has been 4mb (3x4mb updates for MW3 so far!). Why is it that the PS3 has updates which are much much bigger?

No idea about PS3 as i dont normally take notice of updates as they take way to long to download so i go do something else while i wait. But im pretty sure those 4mb updates on Xbox are like anti-piracy checks.

Skyrim on PS3 has/had some major problems with frame rates after the save files got a certain size so im guessing hte ps3 patch has more **** included than the xbox one. Generally the ps3 stuff seems to be larger anyway.. no idea why.
