Final Fantasy 13 on 360 isn't "anywhere near as impressive as PS3 version"

Quote:
While acknowledging that the most important thing - that game itself is the same (of course) - and that in some instances cinematic sequences are better than expected, in many other areas the 360 version "isn't anywhere near as impressive as it is on PlayStation 3".

Making things worse is DF's assertion that it didn't have to be this way; that much of the 360 version's (relatively) poor performance in CGI sequences is down to "amateurish" video encoding on the part of Square Enix, with around 1GB of storage space left unused on two of the game's three discs that could have been put to work improving the look of the game's cutscenes.

From: Report: FFXIII On 360 "Isn't Anywhere Near As Impressive" As PS3 Version - final fantasy XIII - Kotaku

So, I watched the video put out by DF to compare the graphics between the XBOX 360 and the PS3 and maybe I have old eyes but really? I can't see a damn bit of difference between the two. Is there a huge difference here I'm missing? It's freaking me out, because I'd swear this was just two copies of the same video.
