I'd wait to see if they're going to port it to the PC first, unless there are other games on the PS3 that you are looking forward to, like The Last Guardian.

It's being developed by R* San Diego which made Midnight Club LA which was equally good on both consoles and as for the game itself .. GTA meets Wild West COUNT ME IN!

Edit: Sorry I should have mentioned the PS3 is a great home entertainment system I have it paired with a 5.1 1000w Receiveron a 42" LG and I am in love. District 9 in 1080p 5.1 makes me excited in many ways. My Terabyte harddrive with DivX movies is plugged into my ps3 as well.

I don't see why it wouldn't come to PC (Steam has the Rockstar collection). If anything, it might take a few months (just like every console port nowdays :?).

Like any multiplat their is a good chance it will look or play better on the 360. Now what about DLC? You know no matter what, guaranteed 100% that the 360 version will be getting it. Yes the PS3 version might get it but its not a 100% guarantee ( the 360 version will outsell it so its obvious they will get it ).

Im just saying if their is DLC in teh future no matter what as a 360 owner you know your getting it. Thats the best part about having a 360 for multiplat games ( and its funny how they play n look better b/c the PS3 is obviously the stronger machine )

Recently got the newest release of the magazine called GAMEStm here in the UK they have a preview article on Red Dead Redemption stating it as a multiplat with PC, Xbox360 and PS3 release. Like others have said could be a few months after or the same day no confirm details yet.
