    should i get the PC version of this? I have the game on ps3 already. i would just be playing it for multiplayer. i have $25 to gamestop and i don't know what to spend it on. if i do buy it can i just add it onto steam? i already have a steam account. i've had the gift card since christmas.  i'm not sure if i should buy something else.
     
    my computer can play crysis on high so i don't think it would be a problem.

    No. If you already have it, the PC version isn't different enough to warrant another purchase

    Depends if you care about the controls and higher resolutions. Still you already have a copy of the game.

    If you love the game and would like to be able to play it on PC as well, then go for it. Yes, all retails copies of the game come with a Steam activation key. However, the game does not come with the usual benefits of the PC platform, apart from keyboard and mouse controls, so the multiplayer element is the same as you get on the PS3.

    @Binman88:
    Wrong, you get to choose a setting for textures, normal mapping and specular mapping to a setting called extra. Which will put the graphics a bit higher than the console version, of course with already a higher resolution depending on your monitor.

    No, it's the same game when you get down to it. Save that money or put it toward the PC version of Battlefield Bad Company 2, which will get you access to the Beta on the 28th.

    I'm aware of that. I was referring to the usual multiplayer benefits of the PC platform.
