I never got around to playing it on the Xbox360 so I think i'll get it for PC.

Given the choice between 1920/1080 vs 1280/720 and a framerate thats locked at 60 frames per second on my 8800gt I think its an easy choice. I don't know what the framerate is on the console version but after almost finishing Ninja Gaiden I just wouldn't tolerate it at 30 frames per second.

actually the PC version can go up to 120 frames per second.

 

 

 Now you're just showing off! But Vsync it at 60FPS would be awesome for me, my LCD doesn't display any faster anyway.



Tease.

Yup DMC4 best on PC, If you have a 1000$+ gaming rig HE SHOOTS HE SCORES

 

I dont know, my PC only cost me 700$ and I was playing with an average of 100 fps while on the highest settings. Borrowed my friend's wired 360 controller though, the game is just easier to play with a console controller. Although, that might be the case only because I have played the previous game on PS2.

3 ghz pentium 4 processor

512 ram

256 video card (nvidia 6600)

If you pay $1000+ for that, I have some ocean front property in Arizona I would like to sell you.



God hates console fanboys.

I really should outfit my PC with a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and some form of controller...

Then I'd have a 3rd HD 'console' to play on my HDTV ;)

On that setup it wont even come close to the console versions.

 

To shine the game needs high end processors and graphics card.

true...

...my friend has an X2 4800, 4 GB system ram and an 8800gts and he can play DMC4 on PC in 1280 x 1024 4xAA with around 80 fps with minor stuttering (caused by some codecs i think/hope) which is great. Anything lower i guess you are in trouble matching the PS3 version's graphics and framerate, though i guess anybody interested in PC gaming has at least this kind of rig :)

While it's true that that setup wouldn't look as good as the console version, you don't need anywhere near a top end processor or graphics card.  I run a AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual Core 5000+ and an nVidia GeForce 8600GT budget graphics card and I play the game far better than any PS3 or 360. My PC could easily be built for $400.

I know this might be breaking news to some of you, but the consoles are extremely weak compared to modern PCs.  The tech difference is huge, and you can build a PC that plays console multiplats better than the consoles for no more expensive than either of them.
