Hey just signed up on the forum. First of all, it was hard. It woud not allow me to have the username i wanted. But forget that. I am thinking about getting this game eithe for 360 or PC....yeah thats one of my question...i play both 360 and pc but i preferr 360 because of the controller...but how is the controls for this game? I might get it for PC beacuse it was "made" for pc right? But i still lean towards 360, so 360 gamers, please say how it is playing it on the 360

And another question: Difficulty....is it hard? If i get it for PC will the controls be hard to learn? Ive played MMOs(Not WoW, hell no) and is it the same? Press 1 do a attack and etc?
And how is the enemies and bosses? ive heard from people that the original game was very hard.

Ok i hope for answers, if not...

it's obvious action and adventures games are comfortable with PC since keyboard has so many keys with mouse you don't want to spend your time with hard joystick but of course when you move on to games like hack and slash like Devil May Cry 4 Console is useful since it doesn't have many keys to use,also for Racing games console is recommend. but for Role Playing Games PC is the best solution.

and remember since Xbox360 doesn't have a good inbuilt graphic card like PC/PlayStation 3 obviously many games can't be run properly optimized for PC and PlayStation as a result most of games low the texture resolution,cut of unnecessary objects to maintain a higher frame rate but it doesn't bother with PlayStation 3 games cause PS 3 is the most powerful Console(u can even use it as a PC too run a Linux OS+BlueRay ROM+Free Online) so I suggest try always PC version if that game has an Xbox360 version to experience a better graphic quality. (I am not a PS3/PC fan I have all PC/PS3/Xbox360).
if u can buy a PS3 then it's worthy cause PS3 games are much more quality and better than even PC games. if u really want to use both Joystick+Keyboard then use Xbox360 Joystick on PC it's pretty simple but I don't know about compatible issues, u can also try Zeebo Console which is an alternative for Wii but has both Joystick+Keyboard.
the Xbox360 is more popular within Americans since it has been developed by them but when u move on Canada,Europe,Asia Ps3 is widely used than Xbox360.

The Dragon Knight Saga rebalanced things a bit so difficulty isn't so frustrating and you don't have so much trouble running into XP bottlenecks. I play on easy by default because after a hard day at work I just want to relax, and the original game took me to the woodshed a number of times in ways that left me staring at the screen in disbelief.

I suggest reading reviews of the game on PC and Xbox before deciding. I read in one such review that the console controls were very well done, but reading more than one review is generally a good idea.
