Regardless of the game getting a 7.5 here, I still want to play it. Trouble is, since there is no differnce between the two versions, it makes for a very hard Buying Decision. Does anyone know if theres any differnces in teh game that favors one console over the other?

It shouldn't matter. The differences will be so small you would never notice unless you have both versions compared side by side and had to nit-pick the smallest of details.

I have it on 360 and love it. I saw a video of them side by side, they look identical. But Xbox has Achivement Points.

Well I think you'll be disapointed if you buy it, but if its just a rent choose the system your best at. I'm renting it for the 360 because i'm better at the controls and theres achievments.

i would get it for the ps3. The resident evil 4 style controls work best with the ps3 controller. And dont forget you can use the sixaxis motion sensor when the throw the glaive which works very very very well.

you can see what im talking about in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15rxOR42c4Y

achievements are pointless. But if that's your deciding factor, then more power to you.

Yeah true, but there fun to get, games are better with them then without them, because it makes you play your games more and you end up getting more out of them.

I used to think achievments are pointless, that was until I got a 360 and started to actually want to get 1000/1000. Achievments just offer alot of great replayability, and don't leave your games to collect dust on the shelf. The only sstem that I would recomend Dark sector for atm is the 360, but thats just because the ps3 has yet to have an achievment system. Once it does, Id suggest that any game that goes multi-platform get it for the ps3.

I hate these arguements over which version of a multiplatform game is better. They are so close that it really doesn't matter. I'm all for people fight over which giant corperation is the best, but this seems like a dumb way to do it. Long story short, I really think this trend is stupid.

I have a 360 and can care less about them.... If I want to play the game again I'll play it again, not because there is an achivement to unlock.

umm, guys, the PS3 version has the same achievements the 360 version has. They are called 'entitlements' on the PS3. The only difference is, there are no point values for them. You still get to see a list of the ones you unlocked.

I'm sure once HOME is released, these will turn into trophies.

All things being equal (all that can be anyway) 360 gets the tie-break for me.

I may get the PS3 version, but the 360 controller may be better since it plays similar to Gears... I'm not sure yet since Uncharted worked very smooth. Tough decision.

Nice to see devs actually make sure each version is equal.

Maybe we are just fortunate enough to have the money to buy what we want and add it to our collection :?

But I see what you are getting at.

how would you know if he would like the game and you never played it?????? if you like gears of war then most likely you will like this game, it plays almost identical to it and the graphics are better, using the glaive is pretty cool but it just doesnt that impact on the game that you would think.

Wrong. Achievements will not be "pointless" in the near future. They will be used in some form with XBLM....This was always the plan from day 1, they just didn't know how to go about it. Why do you think M$ is cracking down on achievement cheaters? Anyways, im going to check out the X360 version b/c i prefer the controller, rumble & achievements :P

I own it for PS3 and it runs great. No framerate issues at all. It's a consistent 30fps. This game definitely runs incredibly well for having such impressive visuals. It has entitlements, too. :)

I got it for PS3. I buy just about all multi-plats for PS3 now, unless it gets a dramatically lower score due to tech issues. I have a launch 360 which is still up and running! Woohoo!...haha..but who's to say how long that will last. I just don't wanna take the chance of being in the middle of a great game only to have my 360 crap out and give me the RROD. There are exceptions of course. Condemned 2 is multi-plat, but I got it for 360...only fair considering the original was exclusive to the 360.

check this out:

http://talkingaboutgames.com/content/view/194/34/ (also, this could be a great big pile of unsubstantiated garbage, so take it for what its worth).

he alludes to the idea that if your 360 is going to fail, it will fail early in the life span. i had one dre, and it got fixed. since then, no problems.

i love how you make things up. tell me in the review that the 360 has more on-line options. they both play the same on-line. what options do you speak off the options the 360 has that not on the ps 3 systems it self?

are you people not reading my post on purpose? the PS3 version has achievements.

entitelments just arent the same friend.

actually, they are exactly the same minus the numbers attached to them for the 360. Look at the list of achievements for the 360, and look at the list of entitlements for the PS3, they are IDENTICAL. I'm sure once home comes out, there will be trophies for the PS3 version and then they will actually be the exact same.
