I have a PS3 and a 360 but I'm more of a PS3 guy, but I love the Microsoft exclusives like Gears and Halo.
But anyways, I picked up RAGE for the 360 after almost getting it for the PS3 because it allowed the "full" install, versus the PS3's 8 gig install which may attribute to the lag in graphics (but certainly not they way they look, because regardless of normal belief, the PS3's lack of GPU memory is made up in raw processing power).
I did both, I played the game for about a hour without a install of the game, I have a 4 gig xbox so I went out about picked up a cheap $15 USB 16gig flash drive and installed 1 disc at a time and it fixed major graphic pop up's and sound issues, for the most part. (best $15 i've ever spent!)
Though it certainly still does have noticeable pop up's but it's not nearly as bad as when it runs off the disc alone.
It all comes down to a matter of preference, I'm sure id is working their asses off trying to fix all the pop up issues but I'm also sure that they are limited by the abilities of EACH console and while the PS3 has the pure power to be a work horse, Sony doesn't allow bigger installs than the 8gig they got away with so we'l never get a full fix on that platform, but on the other hand the 360 doesn't have the muscle for a path to fix all the issues, just some...but at the same time they allow over 8 gig installs.
It's a catch 22 situation and it really comes down to a matter of preference and while I'm enjoying the 360 version a lot, this game is rater addicting and easy so a quick platinum trophy could easily be done (with the right amount of time) so it makes the PS3 version better in that sense.
But it all comes down to you, which system do YOU want to play it on? When you decide, go out and just buy it...who really cares seeing the games are pretty much identical (with a few shadow texture differences that look better on the PS3)
