    The supposedly credible rumor is that Fallout 3 on the 360 will be getting exclusive DLC. Also, previews reported (very slight) technical issues with the PS3 version, so that's probably your best bet (360).

    It seems like most games are getting exclusive DLC on 360.  That being said, there's still some PS3 games that have this benefit, including Dead Space (to my knowledge).

    And Mirror's Edge; but Fallout 3 isn't going to be one of them, so I've heard, so best to put this one in the old red-ringer, I think.

    i like PS3 DLC, including movies, because none of it requires a subscription.

    The 360 has the exclusive DLC which was revealed back at a E3. What the DLC is...or if it's a timed exclusive deal etc hasn't been mentioned.

    I have both as well but I have such a problem with the PS3's sticks in FPSs that I consider any of them nearly unplayable on the system, so 360 for me =\.

    Among the consoles, 360 will be superior.
    But you can't fuck with user-created content and patches on the PC. That's the best bet.

    I think the analog sticks are terrible on the duelshock 3, so 360 for me.

    The user backlash against GTAIV makes me think that DLC will not do so well.

    I don't like the idea of "exclusive dlc".   It's like...you make something for everyone to buy, and you market it as such, and then you say 'oh yeah, if you buy it for that system and not this one, you're going to hell'.

    I'm getting it for the PS3, because I'm not a faggot.

    By the way, that was a joke.

    Agree 100%

    We are gona wait for the DLC like we still do with GTA4. When it comes, not many will care!
    Most have play the game enough around the time it comes out, so DLC deals like this seems quit useless

    I'm going to do for this one what I did with Oblivion.  I'm going to get the 360 version now.  And in a year or 18 months when the "Game of the Year"  Edition drops, I'll get it for whichever system has the better stuff at that point.  All that downloadable content is great, until you want to play and have to wait forever for it to LOAD all that content.  So a disc with all of it on it will be superior, I would think.

    Unfortunately, I don't have a choice. I have to get it for PS3 (no 360) and have to deal with the graphical problems (even if they are slight), the lack of trophies, and the lack of DLC down the road. I hope when the inevitable big expansion comes out, they at least throw that to the PS3 also.
