you bet its good, played it on the 360 and the graphics and gameplay are superb. when i get my ps3 this is the game i would buy.

Yeah its worth buying. I wouldn't rent a game like that mainly because its so huge and it you would barely scratch the surface.

Its an awesome game

The best RPG on any platform in my opinion. The PS3 version is meant to be identical to the 360 version which is no bad thing.

Actually the PS3 version is actually better in almost every way...loading times, looks, sound and something else but I cant remember...but I don't want this to escalate to another PS3 vs. 360 war....I'm just stating what I heard...anyway I'm sure to get it...

EDIT: It comes with all the down loadable content the 360 has...that's what I couldn't remember... :roll:

Not what I heard - I heard the graphics were identical (due to a 360 patch which is being released to make a few improvements) but the load times were worse (a general problem on Blu-Ray it seems as nearly every game that is on both systems takes longer on Sony's machine). Still, not that it matters - it is close enough.

I think I've already voiced my opinion, but here it goes again.

I actually voiced a long post here.

That doesn't mean it isn't fun, it just isn't much of an RPG. It is like an RPG for the 'short attention span - don't worry, be happy' crowd. Short attention span in that you can check in for 15 minutes, do a few little nothing tasks and leave. Don't Worry, Be Happy because you don't have to worry about battles (everything scales so you're never really outmatched), don't worry about choices (nothing matters, you can be good and evil at once, take on every class and so on), and not worry about missing stuff (everything you find is scaled so you'll never miss anything good by not exploring).

Oh - forgot to give my opinion - YES, buy it! Not a rental, this is a game you want to put a hundred or so hours into.

I may give it crap as an RPG, but that doesn't mean I didn't have a blast ... in fact I recently reviewed the whole Knights of the Nine module set (with all downloadable content)
