I can't seem to decide if i SHOULD get Unreal and on wich platform. I already have Cod4 and Warhawk, do you guys think i should get UT3 too? (i know, only I may know lol )

Then again i can'T even decide on wich version of the game...

PC : - 10 $ less

- 32 players online

- Better graphics (resolution anyway)

- I can probebly run it at max settings ( dual core Amd 64 5600+, 2 gig ram, Geforce 8800 gts)

- Better controls on keyboard for running and shooting

PS3 : - 10 $ more

- 16 players online ( is this really anough ? )

- On a big screen ( HDTV 42 inch plasma)

- Better controle over vehicules with the controller

- Can play split-screen with bots with my friend (who does not have a pc that can run it )

- I can lend it easily to my friends and brothers once im done with it (they all have PS3's)

What do you guys think ?

the ps3 version has keyboard and mouse support too(if the host allows)

i would say PC if you could do it at max. But if you have a small monitor whats the point, then go ps3

I don't know. The PC version has some great optimization, a rig like your will run max NO PROBLEMS. The PS3 version supports keyboard and mouse and mods from the PC version. I'm getting the PC version, because I've grown up with it on PC.

Well, that depens if you like fps on PC or Console better. Personally, I find that fps's are better on the PC, but i'm getting UT3 on my PS3 for a different experience, I'm a little tired of fps on PC

Why is this even a question? If your PC is up to it, get it for the PC! I have yet to play a single shooter that isn't better on PC. UT3 being a the old school shooter with it's fast and furious pace definately should be played on the PC and considering the size of some of the maps you're better off playing them with 32 players.

if you have a pc that could max it i would recommend you to get that instead. Even though I'm a PS3 fanboy, you have to face the fact that the pc version is cheaper and will have better controls due to the fact its on the pc. Also ultimately even if you get the PS3 version you're going to get the keyboard and mouse for it anyways, so may as well play the pc version. Only people like us who havecrappy PCs and no money to upgrade will get the ps3 version.

I am getting the ps3 version, I don't wanna go through all the downloading time and stuff

Plus, 32 players is a bit too many.

im caught up in the same dilemma....but i really want a new game on my ps3...besides i play counterstrike on my pc too much to make time for ut3...and I just bought cod4 off steam and i keep getting lots of errors due to steam...so I need to wait for a patch...didnt see taht coming since the demo ran fine...but if i buy ut3 for ps3 then i know that it will run great and i wont run into technical issues...besides you can always buy one version and have someone get you the other version for christmas
