    Assault on Dark Athena, or Dead Space 2?

    OK, before I start, I just want to say I already have both the games. Riddick on 360, and Dead Space 2 on PS3, but I was wondering, for most people, which game runs better on PC? I want to get one of them, and I like both, so a matter of opinion about the games don't matter to me, I just want to know what runs better for most people. It matters more if it could run on my computer, rather than others, I know, but knowing what generally runs better for the majority of people is good enough for me. I guess the reason I don't add my specs is because I'm too lazy to find them right now because I just want to buy one of the games. And please don't give me the "There are other games coming out, just wait and by something new.". All I can say is that the first Dead Space runs about 60 or more frames per second on the my PC.

    If you already own and beat them why would you want either?

    @monte: Yeah, may be stupid to some, but I'm a person who likes to buy games on multiple systems if I like the game enough. And I think the PC version's "different" enough to warrant my purchase.

    If you own them already get something else, but if you are intent on it then get Dead Space 2,

    Maybe he wants to support the devs. I bought Super Meat Boy on both PC and 360 just to support Team Meat. OP if I had to pick one, I'd pick Dead Space 2.

    @MariachiMacabre: Yes, more recently I have been in that sort of mood, but before I wasn't and just liked to buy games because I liked certain games enough I wanted to experience again on another system. When I had heard Steve Papoutsis, the Dead Space senior producer say "Hey, go out and buy a copy of Dead Space 2, tell your friends to go out and buy it, or you go out and buy it for them. That's the only way we can make sequels, so if you want one, you know what to do." Or something along those lines in response to someone asking if we'll see a Dead Space 3, that's when I really wanted to make sure the game companies I like (because of their games) would get enough money to make another in the series, or at least something new and great in the future.
