    For those who have both platforms and are getting Madden, which platform??? I just put a pre-order on the 360 version but I've also heard the PS3 was the lead platform so I'm thinking of switching it. Any opinions?

    Thanks!

    I'll probably get the 360 version since basically all of my friends have a 360.

    360 for me because friends and Madden games just feel weird with a PS3 controller.

    Thanks for your responses!  In the end I decided on the PS3, mainly because I have better audio (5.1 headset) and slightly better video on my PS3 (My 360 is a pre-HDMI model so it's hooked up to my TV via composite cables while my PS3 is hooted up the the TV via a HDMI cable.)   I'm a noobe to Madden so I'll be playing a little against the AI before venturing to play another person.

    Actually, I made the decision before I saw their posts :-)   In the end it strictly had to do with my particular setup at home.

    If I had both systems, I'd get it for 360, I like the 360 a lot more for sports games.

    360 for sure
    why?
    because xbox live is so much more competitive and widespread then PSN
    plus achievements though not great for this game are still there.

    Whichever version is better based on controller, plenty of people online across the board.

    I picked up the xbox360 version because more of my local friends own xbox360's than ps3s, which makes the disc more versatile for me on that platform.  I also prefer XBL to PSN since it streams my music effortlessy from my vista pc for custom soundtracks.  It doesn't hurt that all xbox 360s come with a mic, so there is much more chatter online than on ps3; so I've found at least.
