Hi all-

I've got a PC that could run this and I also have an XBox 360. I'm leaning towards the PC version, because for various reasons I'd have more time to play it this way. Which version is better?

Also, how difficult is this game really? I've heard a few opinions, but would like to hear more.

Finally, are there many issues getting the game to run normally on a PC?

Please give me some opinions. Thanks.

There is not much different between the PC and Xbox versions (other than the usual platform differences). The text is reportedly larger and easier to read on the Xbox version, and the camera angle fixed (on the PC the angle is determined by the camera distance).

PC or Xbox 360?

From what I've read, character build, skill choices and amount of exploration can make a significant impact on difficulty. Generally if an area is too hard a different approach may help, or there are other areas that can be done first.

You can try the PC demo; if you have no issues getting it running normally, then you shouldn't have a problem with the full version. There are a couple serious outstanding issues some people have run into, with a few workarounds that have helped in some cases.

Most people says the graphics on pc are better. So if you have a good pc and run the game on high options, the graphics are better than the xbox. So if you find graphics a important thing, choose the pc-version.

I personal prefer the xbox because of the use of a controller, but someone says you can also plug on a controller (gamepad) for the pc-version.
I have more reasons I choose xbox, but that's because of my older pc and personal choices... but not important here.

In some area's you must jump between patforms and I'm very clumsy if I must do this with a pc-mouse (and/or keybord) :hihi:

Do not, I say it again *do not* buy this game before real patch will be released. No patch - no fun, no fun - no money.
