I'm jaded and don't really know what I should be looking for in videogames.
I think I could replace every post in this thread with the exact phrase above, and it would still
feel like the same thread.
Who gives a fuck, buy the version that you're comfortable with based on controller preference and friends lists.
PS: cjelly, if you think this game is a "mess" on either platform you really need to have your head examined. That, or stop spouting childish drivel because you apparently missed the memo of what makes a game good.

But isn't the PS3 more powerful than the 360? Hasn't Sony themselves said that porting from the PS3 as the lead sku makes the 360 better? When up porting from a weaker console to a more powerful console it should be the fault of the system if it can't handle it. When porting down from a more powerful system to a weaker one, it's the fault of the developer for not doing it properly.
Look at last gen with PS2 ports to the Xbox and Xbox ports to the PS2.
It is always the "fault" of the developer, so to speak. Rarely do games
port well between both platforms. However, when engines are designed with both platforms in mind, the results seem to be much better.
It's hit or miss, but given that we're so far into this generation, I think any faults between ports of either system rests on the developers. Especially in the case of Rockstar who knew the limitations of both systems going in and didn't necessarily improve on their engine over the years.
