Why you should buy the PS3 version and not the PC version of this game

Graphics look the same up until you hit the upper settings. Which requires a better PC than what most casual gamers have. (the vast majority of this games population) The graphics being better is only a pro for people with top end gaming computers. (Minority)

See above. PS3 can handle all that mid range PC can. Low end PCs are actually worse off than the PS3. You can also change settings to optimize for FATES like the behemoth and odin fights.

Yes. However, if you make it larger it covers more of your limited screen. (No matter what you say the PC monitors are limited unless you connect a tv or projector to your computer.

So because you can play like a PS3 it makes the PS3 useless? We can have a mouse and keyboard on our PS3. Argument invalid.

Only on a monitor that supports 1080p. If you want the bigger screen (TV) it becomes 720p again.

Get a capture card and you take stills from your video and accomplish the same thing.

Both have ways to do what each have. There is no better system unless you spend $2000+ on a PC. Both are completely viable.

I used to think 42" was the biggest i would ever want to have :-P

PC player with a 55" Plasma, PS3 controller and 60+FPS. Get off your PS3 and get on PC.

Computer monitors are not that limited.

Also, the PC UI can be RESIZED. Mine is heavily customized and shrunk down, it probably covers as little as the PS3 UI does if not even less as a result.

The PS3 version is great for people who don't have a mid-range PC or above, but frankly the moment your PC is able to handle today's games I can't think of a good reason to go for the PS3 version over the PC version.

It still comes down to personal style, though.

2. Same thing as 1.
3. I use a controller for my PC version so no.
4. PS3 is way behind in graphics if you have a decent PC.
My killer point is PS3 can't handle the loading that large FATEs bring.

This.
Close topic.

It's personal style. In my case, I'm more comfortable on my couch in the living room than sitting at a computer desk, and that outweighed stuff like modding and screenshots, so I got the PS3 version.

you can get 30 inch screens at the least, and play games at a better clarity then tvs,
and no, mid range pcs destroy ps3s, i dont know what you class as mid range, but a i3 cpu or AMD equivalent and a nvidia 460/ATI 5770 will play this game extremely fine even with 4GB and still beast a ps3 any day. those parts are super cheap, granted my pc is high end, and i know what is mid range. the issue stands from people lack of knowledge, some people dont upgrade or change their pcs in like 10 years, you dont need to spend a lot to play at decent performance on pc games, its a myth.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=FS-355-OK as an example, that system is beastly enough to play games at very decent settings, its upto you if you want to buy an OS if you dont have one already, and this system is prebuilt

whats wrong with having your pc in your living room connected to your tv while on the couch?

I don't get why ppl say " choppy " on the ps3 - I am not seeing any issues at all. Im not even having any problems with fates.
