I saw it on sale somewhere, and wanted to know which platform it's best on right now. I have a pc that can run it, but if it's still extremely glitchy then I'll pass. Have they fixed the glitches on the pc version? What do you guys think? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I heard the wrst problems were for AMD cards, so I think if you don't have those you should be fine if your PC can run it.

Of course the PS3 and 360 versions are probably worth it just because of how amazing they look on console. Probably one of the most beautiful and smooth games on any console.

There were performance issues on ATI cards which were fixed with new drivers. There are no glitches, get it on PC.

I guess should I just go to ATI's website to get them? Also, I have two graphics cards, does the game support crossfire?

Adding to the above: It supports quicksaves and the guns are mapped as standard 1-9 and items F1-F4 so get it on PC.

If you have a PC that can really run it up to max, and you enjoy FPS's more with kb/mouse, then get it for PC.

If you want to play one of the most beautiful games ever made at a rock solid 60fps, get it on one of the consoles. The console versions are pretty much the same, depending on how much space you have on your 360 hdd for install vs 8gig for the mandatory PS3 install. If you can install the full game the 360 is just as good as the ps3 version, if not, then there is slightly more texture pop-in. No matter what the game looks absolutely stunning, and runs smooth as silk.

Rage is a hugely underated game, its really fun, beautiful, technically amazing, and if you spend time exploring, doing all the side board missions, mini-games, and all the races, you will be able to put an easy 25+ hours in the game. Plus there is an online co-op FPS mode with 7 story missions, and a competitive online mode that is super fast and plays like Quake in cars.

Rage is great.

I didn't like the game, but the PC version is runnign fine after the last patch/driver update.

Looks and runs better than the console versions by far. And you cna use a gamepad if you're... well crazy or something ;)

Its hard to find a direct source saying which one is better, but I'd say you shouldn't be worried about the PS3 and Xbox versions being any different. I hear the PS3 version is slightly crisper and it doesn't need several discs like it does on 360, so I think that might be a defining decision. Not the looks (since its probably like 2% improved textures), but the multi discs.
