Im a big fallout 3 fan.. first I got the xbox version, then I got the ps3 version only 'cause at the time I got my ps3 there wasnt that many games I wanted to play so I got it to give it some playing time over the xbox.. I've never found the ps3 version to be so glitchy specially after the patch that added the trophies. Recently I upgraded my rig and got a bunch of PC games just to see the shiny new graphics. So as someone that has played a LOT of the 3 versions I would say that you must go with PC...Besides the much better visuals (ps3 and xbox are practically the same) the controls work far better with a mouse and a keyboard than with the joysticks in the consoles, In the consoles I feel that I had to rely a LOT on vats while in the pc its totally doable to never use vats or use it very sparingly..

Besides that once you've played the c r a p outta it the pc gives a lot of options for roleplaying because of the console commands, like using different houses by changing ownership, givin' you certain items right from the start so you can play as a certain kind of character and such... If you dont want on PC it really doesnt matter that much what console you choose, cause all the dlc's are already coming out for the ps3 so just go buy it and have a blast with it!

I'd been wondering this idea for quite some time now... I imagine something like the xbox pad with a screen in the middle or something like that.. Would be cool for sure, competition is never bad and it would at least force sony to put more effort in the psp (I'm guessing that if microsoft goes portable it would be in the psp type of high-powered handheld and not in the more casual ds way). Like if micsoft puts a couple of sticks in it, sony would HAVE to put a couple of sticks in there too...

I doubt CC 4 tops Starcraft.. the original was sooo good and Its has been in the works for a rather long time.. Besides that there's no way I would prefer CC to starcraft, the history and universe in general are so great for me...

Its just a name and just a game.. While its true that it doesnt have much in common with the literature its supposedly based on. thats really something you get used to in gaming, like u said: a exploring game with a pansy main character probably isn't the best way to make a god of war clone, which I suppose was the main thing that the devs had in mind..

Having said that the original work of Dante's is very rich and could've been very well made into an excellent game with a different concept...Just not what the devs were aiming to I guess..

I agree with the op on this one.. this DLC stuff is gettin' out of control.. I loved it for oblivion but that was extra stuff on an already big game, also im ok with the fallout 3 dlc 'cause normally it adds a lot to the game in terms of items or gameplay (not the case of anchorage though) But this is getting kinda lame. At the same time all this is entirely optional so I just simply never buy DLC that only adds a single thing or that feels like a rip-off...

Totally agree! ..I must admit that I didnt have much love for the Wii but recently good games are starting to be a reality so im pickin' one soon.. I was gonna pick one last month but I choose to upgrade my rig so I can have a truly gaming pc to go with my 'box and ps3 and see if all the fuzz about Crysis was real.. And the handhelds are also awesome. Is a great time for being a gamer for sure...

Too Human.. it wasnt anything special or excellent but also not a 5 by any means...way too harsh review IMO, ive played the hell outta it and in fact picked it up yesterday to play a little more and the controls are anything but intuitive but once you get used to them its a pretty solid game.. Usually I tend to agree with GS reviewers though...

No it doesnt.. This is a nice bundle, If I didnt already had a ps3 (which by the way came bundled with the super crappy pro evolution soccer 08) I would get it for sure 'cause I like those games. But like someone else said above it would be better if u could choose the games u wanted, and it would be WAY better if the price was a 100 bucks down or so..
