Thoughts?              Well, they *say* the 360 version is the worst looking of all the       versions, but I've yet to hear anyone actually tell me "Man, PSU on the       360 looks like ass!".               From what I hear on the PC version, it's possible to get it running at       60fps, but it lacks any higher res. options as well as anti aliasing.              The PS2 version may be at 480p, but I'm not sure(HD Arcade doesn't have       it listed), but I can tell you that only 2 or 3 PS2 games do higher than       480p, and I can guarantee you that this won't be be joining them.              To me, the PC version is just right out...even if you can use the 360       controller on it(like people are reporting)...I *refuse* to sit at my PC       and play a fucking console game. The PS2 one sounds good because of the       fact that you can play with PC players, and since it was the first       version of the game, it may very well end up looking the best(even at       just 480p). Thing is, though, no voice communication. You'll have to       break out a fucking keyboard, jump in the Delorean, hit 88mph and arrive       back at 1999 in order to not be upset about that...              The 360 version has its issues too, with MS fucking you out of any sort       of discount Shithouse Sega will offer the PC/PS2 users on the Guardian's       License thing. Then, there's all the talk of the game constantly       crashing during the beta, you just kind of have to pray that Sega       already took care of the issues, or will do so in a future patch(my       guess would be "no" and "not a chance in fuck"). The good news is that       the 360 version *will* run at 720p(or higher, once the fall Live update       hits) and you get to use voice chat.              My buddy picked up the PC version, he's having issues getting his 360       controller to work with on the PC(not just the game), but he says the       mouse/keyboard config isn't too bad(as hard as that is to believe).              It's a hard decision, especially if you have all three platforms...              Bel              --       Whip Ass Gaming: http://www.whipassgaming.com/              "Time to rub your face in it...with my ass.
