From what I’ve heard/read, the PS3 version seems to suffer screen-tears, while the Xbox 360 version does not. However, apparently, the INSTALLED versions suffer frame-rate issues while playing from the DISC does not.
Shouldn’t it be the other way around?

From all accounts, it seems they’re should be an apology attached to that screen. Does the xbox 360 version suffer from the same frame rate issues?

Sega haven’t done shit right for a long time.

Note that I wasn’t the originator of this ‘news’. That would be Kotaku. Don’t kill the messenger, please.
Also, the developer of the game, Platinum Games, is under the SEGA umbrella. The reason that I pointed out that it was SEGA that did the port was because I felt that it was odd that SEGA went the the extreme to show this, by itself, on a single screen, rather than in the credits list, where it’s normally shown when titles are ported.
I agree that the porting of titles by a developer/publisher isn’t news, but the method in which SEGA went out of their way to show that it was ported IS news in my opinion, which, last time I checked, I am entitled to.

You call this news?

And if you were a developer who put lots of time, money, and effort into a port, would you not like the recognition you deserve? The company that ports the game is just as important as the company that made the game and as such, should be displayed at the beginning title screen when you start the game.

I see nothing wrong with this move nor do I see this as being even CLOSE to being in bad taste.

You’re making something out of nothing just for the sake of writing a news article.
