[QUOTE="fba827, post: 5051880, member: 807"] i'm playing it on console (rather than PC) because my PC could never handle it. interface: I'm not very game-controller-inclined so there was a bit of a learning curve to get used to the control interface, but it wasn't that bad for me (some other games are MUCH harder for me, game control use wise). graphics wise, i play it on a 420res tv so i don't get the same graphic quality that PC users or even most other console users get, but frankly i still find the graphics decent. content: the content is almost entirely the same between console and PC, though I understand PC has an extra mod or two (i vaguely recall reading that they had some extra mod from bioware that let you have more control on the design of your character... or something like that, i didn't read it very closely so someone else will have to confirm). and i'd imagine software patches are easier and more common on the pc version (but, just speculating on that). i'm on my 4th play through and am not yet -entirely- bored of it, though halfway through this 4th play through i could tell i was starting to get tired of the repetitive parts. i still want to play more though to see how things work out in the epilogue. over all impression of console vs pc: i think i'd probably enjoy the interface a little more on the PC, but it wouldn't such a big difference that i'm willing to change my computer and get the pc version for it. on the other hand, i feel much more relaxed sitting back on the couch playing it on console rather than sitting up at the computer for so many hours (because a lot of time can be spent on the game if you're enjoying it) - so my back is thankful for the console version actually. :) [/QUOTE]
