That matters a LOT. I already find the input delay on the X360 atrocious at times. I noticed it immediately when starting up the game. It made the game feel really clunky, especially when you're coming from the likes of VF5FS and DOA4, and as you can see, it's basically only one frame difference between DOA4 and DOA5. That is enough to notice it in my case. Kind of glad that I have the X360 version, and sad at the same time that the PS3 has this kind of input lag.

The fastest that a 60fps game can display inputs on screen is 4 frames (technical reasons), which is 66.7ms, and that's what fighters should optimally operate at. 5 frames is 83.3ms and 6 frames is 100ms. 5 frames is still not bad, but 6 or higher is atrocious. That's effectively playing the game at 30fps (Halo 3 has 100ms input lag, lowest possible lag with a 30fps game). There is a threshold in which the delay becomes noticeable, and it's somewhere between 5 and 6 frames for most people, and obviously, having more than a 5 frame delay with the addition of your screen/tv lag, things start to become clunky pretty fast. Doesn't really matter that much for shooters and such since the precision in there is not as strict, but 7 frames is for me unacceptable in a fighter. The input buffer compensates for it, but it's still too high.

PS3 games always have input delay. Top it off the Ps3 version randomly freezes for a few seconds from time to time, especially in training mode. I'll stick with my xbox copy. Might end up selling my ps3 copy.

I have the PS3 version and it works perfectly. No input delay (either that or I'm not noticing it) and it never freezes.

So DOA 3 responds faster than DOA 4 responds faster than 360 DOA 5 reponds faster than PS3 DOA 5.

Noticing a trend here in the way games work in this generation. Next time I talk to Shimbori-san maybe I'll bring that up. It probably doesn't get talked about a lot.

That doesn't make the PS3 garbage, if it was no body would like to own one, japan wouldn't care for it. Shit, the PS3 would have been dead just like the Dreamcast and if you perfer the 360 thats your opinion but me I perfer both and plus they both suck when it comes down to their flaws. Besides, the Wii u is going shit all over xbox 360, Nintendo needs to take over. lol

I have my reasons why i like each console this gen and i also have my reason why i dont like consoles this gen. Either way last gen had better quality games in my opinion and this gen mostly just gave us better graphics for the most part. Dont get me wrong there were some ground breaking games but i definitely enjoyed last gen more than this gen.

Best thing in my opinion this gen was online play was more of a factor.

(if I'm understanding this correctly)

They probably do it with the "intention" of making the game more "online friendly". The idea being that a slight increase in input delay will allow a bit more "give" for handling online lag. The problem, however, is that this has the side effect of making the game less responsive (and thereby less enjoyable) to the portion of the audience looking to play the game at a high competitive level.
