    Hey there! 
     
    I played the original on 360 when I picked it up 50% on some special gold member deal.  I was wondering if anyone has experience with both versions and knows how it is on the PC?  Obviously its not a huge graphics powerhouse, so I'm more wondering if the interface is nice on the PC. 
     
    Or should I just get it on 360 because I have 6000 ms points eating a hole in my virtual wallet?

    I could see how using a mouse could be a lot better when trying to see what card the opponent has way up in the corner of the screen, it's a pain trying to select cards with the controller sometimes.

    I would go with community. Like personally I have about 10 people on my friends list beforehand that got this game and like no one on my steam. So go where the community is. If you got friends on one system that has it go for that one man. Both interfaces aren't that terrible. Granted Pc is a bit better but the 360 is not very sluggish and works just fine too.

    The previous game is free for Playstation Plus members right now over PSN, wasn't really a stated option, but thought I'd point it out for on-lookers.

    If you have friends that play it on PC go with that, if you have friends on 360 that play it go with that, there is no real difference other then on PC you can use keyboard/mouse, personally i prefer the console version (bought it on ps3 because of the PSN+ discount)

    Since you already have 6000ms points i would say go with that, i played the PC version at a friends and there was literally 0 difference other then i could use the mouse and keyboard, download the demo on both and see if you would rather play with controller or keyboard mouse, but really it's up to you.. if you don't know anyone who plays on either then just go with what you prefer to play on

    Yeah i thought that was cool they did that, already own it on 360 but got it on ps3 anyways, off-topic, or on? do you have 2012 on ps3?

    Some of the menus feel a little clunky on PC, but the actual gameplay is better with a mouse.
