Thinking about getting this but don't know if to buy for the 360 or the PS3. I would of thought they are pretty much the same in gameplay/graphics????? I suppose its down to the controller and online play, of which i like the 360 on both accounts

yeah, there's video footage of them running side by side - both identical.

Well personally i've got it on the PS 3 and it's absolutely stunning .
Easily the best game that's come out on the PS 3 ( not hard considering the slow up take with games thus far ) and certainly bodes well for the future.
I know there's a lot of Xbox 360 die hards on here but personally the PS 3 still has what it takes for me, oh and the small matter of Gran Turismo 5 coming out very soon .

Personally id buy it for the 360, im quite sure theres more 360 owners than PS3 owners so you will have more choice with online games.

Neither buy it for your pc as consoles dont do fps games very well

My pc wont play none of these games however i have a q6600,2gig of geil and a 8800gt bt the wife says i cant have em untill christmas so im in the same boat as you

davecweed

agree, any good top spec pc will beat the xbox and ps3 put together!, you can get better and faster control using the keybroad and mouse, never got that using those daft control pads.

Aye the only thing consoles do better in my opinion are fighting and platform games oh you can sit on yor couch when you play them, also good for when your mates come round.But apart from that pc games **** all over consoles

No game can justify a £300-400 price tag, what else do they have?

Mr.Manchester

nothing.

To the average person £300-£400 quid is a huge expense to fork out for a console that is very slow in churning out good games.
But it's a personal choice that I bought mine and I don't regret it.
I've had all the Playstation consoles thus far so the PS 3 was a natural progression ( that and the laser packed up on my PS 2 ).
The Blu-ray playback is also superb and the up-scaling of DVD's is another handy bonus that all adds up to quality viewing on my HDTV.
My point at the begining was that hopefully now that COD4 has come out hopefully we will start to see what the PS 3 can really do.
Gran Turismo 5 is already well recognised that it will be a massive hit but lets see what else comes along.

Xbox 360 every time...

I know people atwork wo have both consoles... 360 used daily... ps3 sits holding the door open!

I've only the 360, but as mentioned above, it'll be preference on the controller you prefer, i would suspect online the 360 has the bigger community.

Either console it's a cracking game, i especially like the 15yr throw back, well the first half anyway, didn't like having to run away like a girl in the second half.

And to those who say PC's pee over console's, i should bloomin' well hope so the amount they cost, one of your graphics cards could cost the price of a console, well prehaps not the PS3, but hey

davecweed

aye, your right there!, my 8800gtx cost me £380 in the spring.

hux309

My bgf2 oc2 cost £400 only to have nvidia bring out the 8800gt 3 months later at £150 which is only 3 fps slower grr.

I happen to have a powerful PC anyway for work, so the fact it can comfortably play games like Crysis, COD4 and Bioshock, is a bonus!

I want to stick an HD projector in my office though, so its a case of choosing something HD to play on it SkyHD, and Xbox360 is what I think I'll go with.
