Might rent it.
Though PC users will own 360 players with their Keyboards and Mice!

I'll rent it and pwn pc users
Won't be able to play it for a week though
There's an article on the Australian IGN which compares the two and the Xbox came out top.
They said the framerate on the PC version, even on a top range spec 8800gts, 2gb ram etc was shocking while the 360 version was fairly smooth. To play Xbox 360 users you have to pay for an XB Live gold sub on the PC, if you don't you can only play other PC users. As it's a VISTA ONLY game the userbase is likely to be small, and most won't be forking out for gold meaning the PC multiplayer side will be lame.
Oh and the crosshair has been mucked about with meaning you have a large circle, and the bullet can go anywhere in that circle. This is supposed to even things up but actually makes it easier on the 360 version.

No, but I got it cheapish and can pass it off to a friend who wants it.rp2000 said:
It's just another run of the mill game. There's nothing special about it that stands out and it has clumsy controls. It's also multiplayer only and even then it doesn't do it well.insane200 said:
+ They tried a new direction with the magic
+ fast pace
- 9 online maps
- clunky controls
- spells are imbalanced
- teleport through walls spell doesn't work too well
- poor weapon balance
- random parts are slow, like weapon switching, responses to button presses
- really retarded controls
- uninspiring maps and artistic design
- feels unpolished
I've spent about 3 hours on the game. 1 in training and 2 in multiplayer.
