I'm looking at getting this game but everyone rates it higher on the PS3/PC. Why is this? I've seen a graphics comparison, barely any difference on consoles yet people say the PS3 looks miles better.

A ton of graphical glitches. You can't really see them until you play the game for yourself. They are all over the place. Not only graphical either, sometimes my party would get stuck doing animations, their heads would get stuck in a certain position, etc...

From what I could tell it is the graphics and the controls. The theory as I read it is, the consoles both have 'less than perfect' controls (-.5 to X360 and PS3 editions) and the PS3 edition 'looks better' (-.5 for X360 edition). -.5 overall for lack of advertising dollars to net a 10. Meh, whatever. Scores are for pansies in System Wars and people that don't know how 'review scores' work...

Compared the PS3 version the 360 edition looks slightly worse most of the time while suffering from longer loading times (unless you install the game). Though I've also heard the PS3 version is supposed to have a more unstable framerate.

I never noticed any graphical issues on 360 except for them being a little bland. I haven't really paid attention to the graphics though, because the game is so fantastic and fun to play.

Yeah me too. The graphic does look a little bland from the PS3 and PC version. But its ok as long as I get to play it. Just install the game when you get it. The risk of glitches is lower when you install it.

I've heard it had a lot more framerate issues on 360. and a lot of weird texture and model pop-in.

I really couldn't give two craps about what the graphics do or don't do. The game is excellent, and the mediocre graphics is really the ONLY negative thing about the game.
