I have a rather new high end PC (i5 750 oc'd to 3.7GHz, 5850, 4GB DDR3 etc etc)  but I also just got PS3 move... which version should I get. On one hand I prefer using my PC 'cause it will run better... but I've heard the pc controls can be janky. On the other hand I'd love to get extraction free... but the PS3 version won't run/look as good as it will on my PC.  
 
What would you do in this situation?  
 
(I'm thinking PS3 now, PC when it hits a steam sale...)

Unless you're a graphics whore (and only terrible people are graphics whores), get the PS3 version. You get a game that was sold as a full priced Wii game FOR FREE. 

" Unless you're a graphics whore (and only terrible people are graphics whores), get the PS3 version. You get a game that was sold as a full priced Wii game FOR FREE.  "

If you're gonna get it on PC eventually just get for the PC now. 
 
Why would you buy the same game twice

Get yourself a PC controller. Logitech, or just get a 360 controller (it can be used for PC). 

Yeah dude, as much as I can say that the PC version is an awesome way to play the game. A little tweaking with the settings and you can be playing perfectly fine with a 360 controller (or ps3 with a little panache) at 60fps in wonderful HD. 
 
However you have a PS3, so yeah get that, because it's a free game (that looks pretty fun I might add) and Dead Space itself still looks and performs really nice on consoles. Just wait until it goes on sale for 20 bucks (or 5) as per usual with steam.

As a graphics whore I highly recommend the PC version.

The first game was pretty rad on PC.

I remember when you guys spent all your allowance to buy what you thought was the 600 dollar graphics leader. How cute that you've now become this. Let's see, he can buy the cheaper PC version, or the version that comes with a game that needs a 150 dollar peripheral to play. What a conundrum. "

PC, this game looks gorgeous and would look the absolute best on a PC. If you're worried about KB+M controls get a PC or 360 controller.

The whole strategic dismemberment thing seems like it could benefit from M+K.

Get the PS3 version for the free extraction...
 
Then buy it again when it goes on sale for 10 bucks on Steam.

Even though the pc version will look better the ps3 version still looks fucking great, haven't played pc version so I can't comment on the controls but free extraction is a pretty good deal.  In the end it's your choice but I'd go with ps3.

" Get the PS3 version for the free extraction...  Then buy it again when it goes on sale for 10 bucks on Steam. "

The higher resolution and framerate are totally worth it. Also, you can always buy Extraction separately on PSN.

Just play the game. 
 
 
That is all. 
 
Edit: if you want all the goodies and the best bang for your buck, go for the PS3 version.

Are there goodies associated with playing extraction and then playing the full game? Or is that only with the PSN/XBLA comic thing. "

as a fan of the Mouse as the best tool to shoot a gun, PC :)

I think you get the hacker suit from Ignition which is the motion comic, I dont think Extraction unlocks anything in DS2 "

" @Octaslash:   How much is extraction? "

"I just saw that Extraction only comes with the $80 Collectors Edition."

" @awesomeusername said:

That's not true at all.  It comes with EVERY new copy of Dead Space 2 on the PS3. "

This is definitely a showcase game for the PS3, the only way you'd be disappointed is if you played the PC version first.  I wouldn't mind having a second or third play through on the PC, it'd be refreshing with AA and all the extra particle and lighting effects added.  A lot of people probably would suggest not wasting your time or money on the PS3 version if you have a capable computer, but if I were you I'd get both versions.

PS3 good sir.

Oh, and Dead Space 2 is $60 on both platforms.  I played on PS3 and at no point during the game was I wishing it looked better.  The game looks amazing regardless of how you play it.  Really, it comes down to whether you want Dead Space: Extraction or somewhat better graphics.

Well, I've got the PC version and would recommend it, but it's a real shame that the announced DLC won't be released for the PC, as far as I heard. Having said that.. the PC version looks gorgeous and plays great, but I might get the PS3 version as well only because of the DLC.  
 
Tough decision, do what your heart tells you! ;)

PS 3 is a good game console. I have it. but unfortunately I don't have time to play with it since I have taken business trip a lot every year. so I had to find my solution. it's PC version game. my laptop is kind of powerful to play all new games with no problem (high video setting for any game). so I play games no matter where I am. that's my situation. I will sell PS 3. by the way, PC version DS 2 is awesome. I set everything max. I still have little over 60fps. if I turn off vsync, it is crazy faster (I guess it will be like over 120 fps or something). I get motion sickness. so I have to turn vsync on. I still have 60fps. so it's OK. 

pc...for teh graphics.  plus there's no point in playing extraction unless you have a move.

I'm loving it so far on the PC.
 
Though I haven't played much.

Depends if you are into trophies or not - I am not at all, but I do quite like achievements as a carrot on a stick type thing. So I went for the 360 version over both PS3 and PC. 
 
Played the first on PC though and that looks a lot better than Dead Space 2 on the 360, so I'm gonna guess the second is a visual treat on PC.

I think that everything is good on PC. especially, when you put three monitors (more than 22 inch), play it. that's awesome. it's called 'eyefinity'.

I got it for 360 because I'm just that big of an achievements whore. I didn't have move so I passed on PS3 version.......maybe I should have gotten it for PC.....but those achievements......

DDR3 comes in dual and tri-configurations, so yeah, I have 3 2GB sticks in my machine and 3 1GB sticks. "

I've got it on the PC, looks awesome, high resolution, smooth frame rate and can play with an xbox pad.
