Which version of The Darkness would be the better buy? The 360 or the Ps3 version?

I vote that the lighting in the 360 is better.

Well the integrated online system and achievements are better than watching crappy TV in the game.

I'd get the 360 version, seeing as it has achievements, the absolute best controller for FPSs, and I believe it was the lead platform (I could be wrong).

Anyone who's getting this game for the MP needs to be shot.

They are both identical. The PS3 has some extra stuff, though--nothing special, to be honest. Either way, I'm picking up the PS3 version.

No one's hyping the multiplayer, but it's better than watching TV shows in the stupid game, which is afaik the only feature the PS3 version has over the 360 version.

Max Payne had that feature. And that came out...five years ago, I think:?

Either you get some extra TV footage (ei. Popeye) or the standard Live features (ei. Achievements, Private Chat, etc.). Depends on preference.

Im gonna say 360 since every game that was on both systems was much brighter on PS3. This game is about darkness and I think PS3 for whatever reason...dont really get why the games tend to look bright and washed out...will not look as good as the 360 version.

Every multiplat online is automatically worse on PS3 since there's no XBL component. Chat channels, matchmaking, voice chat, following your friends into games, etc.

But it wasn't an entire TV show or 1 h 30m movie. In Max Payne I dont even think it was ful motion video.

Does anyone have a link confirming the PS3 version has more TV stations and content, or is this just an assumption because of the Blu-Ray disc? I havent seen any websites specifically say there will be any difference between the 360/PS3 versions.

I read an interview with one of the devs stating they were going to do this, but I don't know if they actually ended up doing it. I'll see if I can find a link.. edit. Found it
