For those who are lucky enough to have 2 or more gaming platforms which one do you choose when purchasing a game? Considering things like mods, DLC, price etc.

If I was really really into the game (like I am for Rock Band for example), I would definitely buy it for the PS3.
However, I'm not really excited about Fallout 3 ... not an RPG fan ...
I'm slightly biased because I'm not fond of PC gaming anymore, ever since I got a PS3.

I personally give priority to my beloved 360, simply because the achievement factor helps you get so much more out of a game.

Most games are easier to use on a console than on a pc, although there are exceptions. PC is much cheaper too.

If its a multiplatform game i ALWAYS go for the PS3 version. Its my primary console. I only buy exclusives for either the 360 or Wii (or if i see a really good bargain) - nothing else.

Besides, heaven forbid my 360 breaks down again - ill have nothing to do for 3 weeks while Microsoft stuff around with a replacement. And there is no way im missing out on an uber awesome launch game (eg. Fallout 3) cause my stupid 360 is in the shop.

How do you mean cheaper? I'm going to have to fork out $2000+ for my PC. It is a one-off buy but still.

Unless your referring to the forbidden 'P' word.

Lazy developers will make games for the 360 them port them straight to the PS3. Double Agent was a pathetic port.

Well for me I keep FPS's and strategy games on Pc, cause of keyboard & mouse controls. Pretty much everything else sports, platform games, etc on PS3.

Nah mate, PC game prices in general are much cheaper. Obviously not talking about import markets, but local new release pc titles are usually released up to $50 cheaper than a new release console title.

Doesnt really matter which multiplatform game you get, at the end of the day its the same game. Only real nerds dive deep into the whole comparison bs that noone could care less about. Assassins Creed is Assassins Creed, GTA IV is GTA IV, Devil May Cry 4 is still Devil May Cry 4. Get whichever version, its the same game.
