Were the PS3/360 your first consoles or something?
PS2 had a crapton of 60FPS games and it was the standard for racing and action games.
60FPS was definitely a thing on consoles.
The point is that these things didn't matter as much before.
There was no digital foundry giving console warriors fresh ammo every time a new game comes out.
The first few years of multiplatform games on 360 and PS3 were very similar. PS3 versions ran worse and looked worse than their 360 counterparts. How much is debatable but PS3 development didn't start off great and that is a fact. That trend continued for years and the vast majority of 360 games looked better or ran better all the way until the current consoles were released.
At that time it wasn't such a big deal. If someone only had a PS3 and played those versions, it was fine. No one threw their hands up in the air when a PS3 owner played the PS3 versions.
Now if someone goes for the xbox one version, it's a crime against humanity and a clear sign that anyone who would do that is an idiot.
It bothers me because Sony fans were in this same exact place last generation in terms of multiplatform games. It stayed that way for years and they had no problems with playing the PS3 versions. Now that the tables have turned, it's the biggest deal in gaming history.
I can understand the weight of a chip on your shoulder for an entire generation, but as far as I can remember, people didn't make a big deal out of 360 versions being better last generation.
