I'm pretty sure Dragon's Dogma had one, having a larger world. The installs can be really quick or really long, and sometimes the developer puts it in as a background install, like Fallout 3 did. So while you're starting the game, it's installing on the HDD so you don't have to sit and wait.

crap that complicates things more, i prefer digital versions, are there any known preorder incentives for the digital version? Vergil's dlc preferably?

I think you do get Vergil's Downfall with a pre-order of the digital version. But I'm not sure.

Are you in North America, or Europe?

I'm not sure...I know it's the only way to get the DLC in Europe, through the digital copy, but you might need a GameStop pre-order to get the DLC in North America :s

But really, in the end, it depends on what you really care about. If you just want the game, then get it for whatever system you like the controller for. If you want to make sure it has the best possible performance, then go with 360 I guess.

I have to say 360. I own both a ps3 and an xbox, and I have to say what I experienced with the demo is kind of disappointing. The framerate is a deciding factor for me, the controllers are both easy for me to get used to and master, but the framerate dips, some of the textures, lighting, and shading are all bad on the ps3. So Xbox 360 it is. I would go with ps3 though if those problems were gone because I like to keep games on their original consoles and my ps3 hardly gets any attention. After christmas, if I get a kinect like I think I will, chances are my ps3's attention will die down a bit unless I get silent hill HD and Devil May Cry HD on ps3. But I don't know what version I'm getting or anything so we'll see.

I voted 360 despite the fact that I prefer a PS3 controller for games of this type.

Bayonetta had an inferior port for the PS3 so I'm somewhat disappointed that they have some issues here too. They both play identically so the decision came because of the odd graphic issues only present on the PS3.

As an owner of both systems, and been playing DMC on a Playstation controller for the better part of 10 years now, I'm going with the 360. During the demo, I found myself constantly putting in the old inputs for Stinger and High Time because I was so use to the layout for those games. So since this is a new series, with a new layout and everything, I'm starting fresh with the 360. Plus during the demo, I noticed some blocky textures that weren't present in the 360 version. That's just me though.

Yeah, most people noticed that blocky shading in the PS3 demo, but apparently, press footage from the final build on PS3 doesn't seem to have them. I haven't paid close enough attention to that in particular, but if it's true that's nice.

The demo was several builds ago, and didn't represent the most current one at the time of its release either.

True dat, usually anytime a game is multiplatform I stick with my trusty PS3, but I'm so set in my ways with DMC and that controller that I was doing terribly while playing the demo haha.

Yeah I have seen that too, I liked the demo but to see that final build is better... I TAKE IT LOL.

It's in a few of those videos that were released, but...I can't remember which ones. Those Playstation Access ones were on PS3 (of course), I should give them another glance.

Going to go with the Xbox 360 here simply because of the controller.

Other than that, I honestly did not notice any difference between the 2 versions judging by the demo, but maybe I missed something or wasn't looking hard enough.
