I was told that the PS3 version wasn't as good as the 360's (which felt really smooth at PAX), but how bad is it in real world terms?  Are there any games that you can compare the framerate to?  Did you play any Saints Row 2 online that you could give us an over/under on?  Because that framerate was kind of shit but the game was still playable and a ton of fun.
 
And how big is the install?

" your just a mercenary endlessly killing hordes of enemies for no reason other than to buy more guns. It's paradise, don't question it. "

" @hpv: That's wierd, cuz Randy Pitchford and his grandma told me that the 360 version looks/runs better. He said while the 360 version runs at over 9000 fps and has graphics only dreams are made of, the ps3 version sadly ran at a whopping -10 fps and looks like my toilet bowl after some bad mexican food.  Seriously dude they look the same and run the same nice try though. "

For the appearance they're basically using a gigantic collection of parts that can be put together by their "virtual manufacturer" program to produce the crazy number of guns they're using.  The individual characteristics of the guns will still vary even if the weapon looks similar or identical to another one, though it's possible you'll at some point find two guns that are exactly identical.  The odds aren't that long and I doubt they're keeping score to make sure they never drop the same gun twice.

" PC. Why the hell would you buy a shooter on a console if you have a nice gaming rig? "

I haven't been this excited for a game since I got my SNES with Super Mario World.  And that was before I played it at PAX.
 
I really wish I hadn't watched the Quick Look tonight, Tuesday is already so damn far away!

" Im jsut assuming it might be more vibrant on 360, adn more "washed out" on PS3. im basing this off of Prince of Persia, which had a similar art style. "

" My sole issue with this game is that I'm not playing it yet.  Your issue probably won't matter by the 100th playthrough. "

I'm getting it on PS3, but if they put out a demo and it runs smooth enough on my computer I'll pick up the Windows version as well.  And I might have to GameFly a 360 copy if enough of my friends pick it up there.  How come there is no "All of the Above" option in this poll?  And why isn't it fucking Tuesday yet!??!

You should have thrown Katamari Forever (or wtf the 360 version is called [edit: it's Beautiful Katamari, but I'm proud not to have remembered that because that game is bullshit]) on this list.  I didn't have a 360 at the time so I never played it and have no interest now that I do have one, but something like half of the levels ON THE DISC were unlocked via DLC that totaled something in the neighborhood of 50% of the disc price.  I'm not sure any other game comes even close to that nonsense.
 
I hope we can get a nice balance between price and added features from DLC *and* get people to shut the fuck up about it.  If you don't like it or think it costs too much, don't buy it.  If it's an issue of that stuff being on the disc and you don't think what they're letting you play is worth the money then don't buy the game in the first place.  Because that's really the problem with these games that sell you on-disc unlock codes.  That sort of thing happens ALL the time with computer software and you don't see people complaining that their copy of Windows only lets them use Home Basic because that's what they paid for when Ultimate is "OMFG ON THE DISC!!!"
 
I guess I'm just lucky that I don't like shit games and that shit games are the ones that tend to have these shenanigans wrapped up in them.
