I want to get the Box, and I want to get it for PC due to the fact that playing a FPS with a gamepad is against the laws of nature. But, like me, my PC is getting old. It can play the Half-Life 2 and Portal demos, but at the lowest graphical settings. I also have a PS3 which guarantees HD graphical goodness. So, do I get Orange Box for PC with all the benefits the PC has to offer (controls, mods, more players), or do I get it for PS3 for teh graphics?

Sexy 360.

Answering your question; I think you should get it for the PC. MODS FTW.

If you don't have a good PC than it will look much better on the PS3. But in all honesty if you want to get the most out of the Orange Box, especially TF2, then you will want to go with the PC.

I've only played the 360 version myself, but EA ported it to the PS3, and that right thar is insta-fail. Plus the PC version has sprays and custom maps and shit.

Yes, but if your FPS is hurt by it then you're not PLAYING it at ALL... you're merely enjoying the experience of watching yourself skip around the screen then suddenly die randomly.
