You know, since you guys have the super high-end gaming rigs? You always see cows saying "I don't need a 360 because I could play Halo 2, Gears, Mass Effect, Bioshock on my PC lol".

Whoa..then why didn't you play UT 3 on PC? You know, since you already have Gears, and Mass Effect, and Bioshock, and all those other 360/PC games. Hmm..

Because they are cows, not hermits. And they only use the PC when it helps them against the 360. Oh wait.....Sorry, forget what I just said and say something stupid or funny. :|

Cause owning a decent, $700 gaming PC + a $400 console and buying a game per/month for each is cheaper and more rational than owing a 360. 2 againts 1, you lose go home chicken and speaker boxes!

PS3 and PC has a reliable system.

360 has a reliable customer service. (...at least most of 'em)

That's a good question...

A better one would be, why aren't they playing it? A good, well populated server is next to impossble to find these days on the PS3.

How are the PC and 360 versions? I'm really thinking of picking this up, but if the community is dead I won't bother. The PC version better be alive as I'm leaning towards that.

They're not too much better I'm afraid. Many PC players were turned off by some of the new features and have returned to older versions of UT. As far as the 360 version, its online community is certainly no Halo 3 or Gears of War. It's not necessarily hard to find a game per se but it's not exactly easy either.

Not true. I saw plenty of cows hyping the PS3 version because of the user-created mods. Now they're pretending as if they never hyped the game at all.

Well yeah, if the game was good, the mods would have carried it like they have with past unreals. Except epic failed to make the game good. Laugh at epic...

get a life buddy, nobody cares.

And by the way, NOBODY bought U3. Its a mediocre game, on PS3, on PC and on 360.

Well I bought it. Kind of wish I hadn't though, not what I was expecting at all.

I already know it's a terrible game, everybody knows that. That's not the point. The point is, if cows have such powerful gaming PC's, why did they plan (before they knew it was a bad game) to buy the game on PS3 instead?

I bought it because I wanted in a quasi-mobile solution for when I travel to my 3 homes in the US. It's much eaiser to put a PS3 in a backpack and go than a desktop computer, wouldn't you agree?

It was a matter of convenience.

The real question is why would anyone want to buy that crap in the first place. What a terrible game it was. *shakes head in disgust*. I really really really did not like that game at all. It was so bad, it was not worth the rent through gamefly.

If you want to pass me $1,500.00 or so so that I can buy a laptop capable of running UT3 at an acceptable resolution and framerate, I'll be glad to.

But since you're not, I'll go ahead with the solution I have.

Fair enough?

So i'm guessing you don't own 3 house... or else I don't see $1,500.00 an issue.

Also, when we are talking about acceptable resolution... hopefull were talking about 720p, meaning you have a HD TV for each of your 3 homes... again nothing cheap there.

You assume that PS3 players also possess PCs. But they may not have PCs at all. Furthermore, even with a PC, suppose their friends (who they will be playing with the most) only have PS3's, making the PC version useless as an option.

Or maybe the real answer is that cows like to hide behind the PC and use it against the 360, even though most of them don't have PCs that can handle games like Bioshock or Mass Effect.

Yeah, that sounds about right..

Maybe So I can play it on high settings with no fps drops and not on medium with unstable frame rate ?If UT3 was a SP game i would get it for PC seeing as the frame rate would be much more stable.

And my comp is only like a 300$ pc.
