Not to mention 16 v 16 players on the PC, as apposed to 4v4 + AI on consoles. Apparently the PS3 version is completely messed, according to some magazine (its on the official forums somewhere).
As I always say, games are only better on console for co-op; its great sitting down with a friend on a couch and going through a campaign together. Thats about the only virtue, though.
Consoles because if you ask such a question it's obvious you don't want what's best (PC-since any FPS is a lot better on PC), but what's more accessible (friends, etc).
To add to all this, asking what is better on a system-specific board will bring forth some bias. :p Granted, this bias is justified, and in this case especially, the PC version is simply superior in every way, but just saying.
I get what you're saying, ARMA II is already way better with better mod support etc., but this is essentially a military sim for those who aren't as hardcore about it. It's a little console-ized, but it looks to be a decent game. Better on PC, just reread the other posts. Essentially, all shooters are better on PC.
It only supports 32 players?...........LMFAO!!.............LAME!!!!!!........thats just pathetic compared to the first one. I can now save my money for something good :)

Then buy ArmA 2, because there isn't anything else like this coming any time soon.

Then buy ArmA 2, because there isn't anything else like this coming any time soon. The most popular type of game in Arma 2 seemed to be co-op, as I recall. 32 players would seem to be plenty for that.
It seems to be vaguely Ghost Recon-ish for the demographic it's aiming at. Not as hardcore as Operation Flashpoint or ArmA, but not quite as arcadey as the BF2's or COD4's out there.
Already got ArmA2 and it has the same limit the old OFP had....150........I love the big maps and the large amount of people all working together with all the diffrent vehicles. JUst not the same with just 32 people...

Eh at least it sounds like the voice acting will be a lot better in operation. It is kind of irritating hearing robot voices in Arma 2...
