Unlike its Wii counterpart, characters such as Zephyr, Nimbus, and the Wind Warrior use two separate models in the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 ports of the game.
The first model is used during fly-through cinematics while the second one is used in-game. The Wii version only used one model, presumably because of the lack of resources on the Wii's hardware.

Within the data for every version of the game is a semi-functionable no-clipping mode that allows the player to freely explore maps without being stunned by the sunlight. The mode can be enabled by changing the value from "weatherphase1" to "weatherphase0". No-clipping mode doesn't work on Roadside Destruction, the tutorial portion of Chicken Con Carnage, and Showdown with Omegaton. Additionally, the player won't be able to destroy objects that are within the sunlight.
