PC version. From what I hear, the load times are ridiculous on a console, where I don't even notice them on the PC. And the PC will get the DLC, its just that the 360 gets a first crack at it, like MW2-MW3.

The PC version feels wierd to me. The controls, for some odd reason, feel sluggish and detached. Almost like everyhting has some lag or a "slow-mo" feel to it. Can't really put my finger on it. Wish I had skipped he PC version and got it for 360.

You may want to try disabling vsync if you had it on, I am playing PC using mouse+kb and was getting some mouse lag with vsync on, and then later played for a bit on PC with XB360 wireless controller and no vsync and didn't notice much lag, so I suspect the lag maybe the same I saw with vsync on earlier.

I got it for PC simply because I can travel with my laptop so there is a bigger chance I'll finish it.

I just had it plugged into my projector, it started to get a little creepy and I had to turn it off :p

well just starting but very cool and different. I've bought the others in the series but never invested more then 20 hours or so in them. I love the enviroment, openness, and the fighting so far... just have a little bit of a problem judgeing distance and timing... IE: I think an enemy is right in front of me, swipe my sword at him only to miss and realize that he's a tad out of reach, same with timing... I'll see an enemy prepared to strike, will put up a block only to take it down because he's out of reach, as soon as I take it down he hits... guess I just need to get the timing and distance down... the only other thing that drives me crazy... in many games, is that the characters fell smaller, closer to the ground then a regular human would, I have to check and make sure I'm not croutched alot. lol Alot of games seem to have that problem to me, even shooters... it's like the charater is 4 foot 5 or so... instead of 5'9. Also don't like the inventory system, having it pause to drink a potion... nut sure why the D pad couldn't have 4 shortcuts on it... ie: heal potion, fireball etc etc... then to use the others have to press B to bring it up. JMO

But the gameplay itself is fantastic... just minor issues.
