Poll: Far Cry 3: PC or Xbox 360? [closed]
Total Votes: 14
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of each and decided which platform to get this game for. I am definitely getting this game.
PC Specs (For Reference):
OS: Win7 Pro (64-bit)
Processor: AMD Phenom II X2 550 Processor 3.10 GHz {6.5}
RAM: 20.0 GB {7.4}
Graphics Card: Radeon HD 5750 {7.3}
Storage: 120 GB SSD, ~1 TB HDD Space {7.3}
(Numbers in {#} are from the Windows Experience Index)
Ok, now that that's out of the way...
PC Pros:
Better Looking Graphics
Faster Loading Times
$10 Cheaper than 360
Digital DL Thru Steam, No Disc
Still Has Controller Support
PC Cons:
Not as many friends to play with
Higher possibility of lag/incompatibility/other issues
-----
Xbox 360 Pros:
More friends to potentially play with
Virtually no game lag (network lag is different)
No Installation needed
Xbox 360 Cons:
Game Disc. Possibility of getting Lost, Stolen, Broken, etc.
Worse Graphics (I heard not much better than Far Cry 2's)
Very Long Loading Times
Console may be "outdated" and replaced within a year

I'm sure there's more I could add to those lists. Based on what I have so far, I'm thinking I'd go with PC.
Any reason you guys have that I should chose one over the other?
Also, I meet the recommended System Requirements for PC in all areas I believe, but do you think it may lag at all at times if I try to play on High Settings? Crysis 2 didn't have much problem.
