Splinter Cell: Double Agent

This game is nowhere near as bad as some people have said.
Sure the FPS drops a little in places but that is obviously because Sony are insisting on vsync being enabled by default so you get no screen tearing (especially noticeable on HDTVs because of the larger screen area).
I suspect the 360 version would be just as slow if they had vsync on as well.
The PS3 version @ 1080i looks a lot sharper/clearer than the 360 @ 720P although you can see that there is no AA enabled.
When you first load it up it creates an 854MB cache on the HD to improve game loading speeds. This means you can load save games very quickly.
Only played level1 so far and that looks a little different in places graphically from the 360/PC versions. Out of the 3 I would say that overall the PC looks the best of all but is virtually unplayable (because of the lag regardless of high end hardware) and many bugs have not been patched.

if you do remember you can save at any point 
Changed my mind about this bigtime!!
Got to the Shanghai level and it looks absolutely dire. No shaders on the glass at all and 16 bit level unfiltered low res textures everywhere. The spotlight shaders also look really poor and bland. On the 360 this is the best looking level but on the PS3 it really looks awful. I just sold it in disgust as no way am I gonna bother completing it now. Luckily only lost a tenner on it.
Avoid!!!
