Kalis Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 I can't decide which system to get it for. Generally I prefer games on my PC but since I will probably be using a controller for this game anyways it might be nice to get it for a console since I have a nice sized TV. How do the graphics compare between the systems? Is the PC a lot better or are the console versions comparable?
xxAshenxx Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 I owe PC and XBOX versions and it plays great on both. PC displays a bit better graphics if you can run the game on highest settings, playing on my 50'' TV feels more comfortable on the other hand. I also feel console version is more stable.

I had a great time with the PC version, and considering it is probably just as good with Consoles, I'd say go with the official platform of the "Gaming Master Race".
Chasted Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 There is also the added bonus of being able to play in multiplayer without needing to buy another box on X-box/PS3 (If you have a mate who's also willing to play)
Matt-C Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I would say using the xbox controller is the easiest to play. So I would go Xbox or get an xbox controller for PC.

Have you played with a controller? It would appear that the game has been designed with the xbox controller in mind. The KB+M you can get use to, but the controller is a lot better.

I have an xbox controller for my PC. Mainly I am just trying to figure out if the advantages of the PC version out weight being able to play it on my 47" TV instead of my 23" monitor.
Chasted Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Well, PC typically has faster load times but it's more up to general preference. Just flip a coin
Palmtop Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) i would stick on PC because of the better Online Support like Addons, Patches, Bugfixes etc. The only negative Thing is the Smaler Sized Screen of your PC compared to TV in my Opinion. Edited June 20, 2011 by Palmtop
Pidesco Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Connect your controller and TV to your PC: Profit! "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.

I'd say get it for consoles if you have a second controller. Tackling the game at hardcore with couch co-op is fun.
ShadowScythe Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I got used to the pc controls pretty quickly with Reinhart. But I think the controls would certainly be much less awkward on console.
Unreal Warfare Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Connect your controller and TV to your PC: Profit! This is pretty much what I was going to say. PC graphics on your HDTV are pretty damn nice!
rafoca Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Connect your controller and TV to your PC: Profit! Some times I do that, but it is too much work for me
Pidesco Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Sometimes? I have it like that all the time. I just I have to switch between screens in Windows whenever I wish. So yesterday, for instance, I played a bit of Assassin's Creed II on the TV and later I played it on the PC monitor. Because I could.

Uhm, consoles don't get updates like that because, uh, the control scheme works and is pretty well thought-out for the most part, instead of feeling tacked on and broken?
