Just completed it, what an absolutely amazing game.
Had to treck 30mins to the other side of Hull to get it, which I thought was pretty bad, until I started speaking to a guy in the shop who had driven from Selby (near Leeds) to Hull to get a copy, after spending 20mins phoning shops trying to find a place with them in stock.

I own both and have to say that you can't put a cigarette paper between them, each is decent and capable machine, I disagree with the poster who said the games are cheaper on the 360 tho, I have seen many games on both formats where the Ps3 version is cheaper in one shop and the 360 is cheaper in the other. I generally cherry pick the cheapest no matter what the format.
I'm surprised how many people own both consoles. Back in the 90s you were either a SNES man or a Megadrive man and that was back when games would only come out on one console, E.G. SNES had Zelda & Mario and the Megadrive had Sonic & Kid Chameleon. Nowadays everything is on both platforms, baring the odd game or so, only the Wii seems to have unique games. Why would you want both consoles?!
All this chat has inspired me to buy the game. Who amongst us hasn't dreamed of mowing down all the shagtards in an airport? Ten minutes to check an effing bag? Boom, back of the dome. "Forgot" you had 4 litres of shampoo in your bag despite the rule having applied for two years and having been warned six times on the run up to the belt? Rambo knife to the face. Group of wankbags in ironic stag t-shirts shouting in posh voices: sniper rifle; head explosions; panic/fear. Lovely stuff. Just doing my job.
I appreciate - before the holier than thous descend - that this isn't acceptable because shooting real idiots in real life is naughty. But there's the benefit of video games in a nutshell.

Separated. At. Birth.
Just this evening I fantasised about driving a metal spike through the head of the stupid bitch who got to the tube gate at pretty much the same time as me, elbowed me aside to get there before I did, then spent 30 seconds looking for her f***ing ticket. Got home and punched seven shades of shit out of the heavy bag for ten minutes instead. Now have a sprained wrist. Should have played Manhunt instead...
Is there a 'shoot the fck out of tourists who come to a sudden halt in front of you, to take a photo of St Pauls Cathedral' stage? If so I am buying a console and the game.

Advantage of an 8 bedroom house.
There is in fact 2 xbox's here.
I get that, people bring up what they have to uni, we had the same thing in our house, but I know some people who have brought each console as they've come out! My boss and brother being 2 examples.

Always enjoyed video games and have always bought each generation of consoles during the generations life span, never been a one console person' each machine has it's quirks and exclusives that are worth getting.The machines never come out at the same time so over a four year period it is quite possible to get them all (if you are that into it of course!) if you only had a Snes you would have missed out on the decent stuff on the Megadrive and vice versa. Obviously back then 'exclusive' was a bit more 'exclusive'.

yeah special level on ps3 only....honestly..... ;o)
I think I now understand why people play these games, it is to release excess frustration that normally would be expelled at watching a Charlton game, but this instead results in even more frustration which requires release.

Bingo!
Although there are alternative measures....
I just assumed people Kicked the (Dog/Cat/Wife/Girlfriend) or exercised their right hand :-)
The big worry of this game, for me, is that impressionable MPs will play it and confuse reality with the game; then vote to send our troops off to die in far off lands, in illegal conflicts that largely benefit other nations, lead to the death and displacement of hundreds of thousands of innocent women and children and make us the poster-boy enemy of the biggest shower of nutters on planet earth. Some of them will probably start claiming for a virtual second home in Iraq.
If the manufacturers restricted themselves to games that allowed you to go at people dithering around ticket barriers with a claw hammer, I don't think we'd have the problems that we do.
