Hey, as long as you compose your own posts you're welcome here. It's

I'm not entirely sure, but I get the impression that the PS2 version was
written first, and the PC version was a port. That's based on the order of
the press announcements. However that shakes out, the 360 version is a
port of a port, since it was announced afterwards (and presumably written
later as well.) Based on my own crummy experience with the 360 version, I
was motivated to buy the PS2 edition instead.
I'll concede that if you dig Xbox Live and you have to have your friends
list up and running all the time, then the 360 version makes a lot of
sense. On the other hand, if you ever do have the urge to play the PC
version then it's worth considering that the PC and the PS2 share PSU
servers, and therefore it's possible for a PS2 player to retain his or her
characters when switching to the PC version. There's no big factor that
would push you one way or the other, so in my book it's all down to
personal preference only.

Hucaseal alternate character...
