I'll say it again, Sonic on the PC is excellent since with the later release they seem to fix up lots of bugs.

Storm Rider:
The 3D Sonic games are terrible so the platform you play them on is irrelevant.

Anyway as for to get it for the 360: If you have a PC that can run it, why would you get... ANY game for a console when you could get it for PC?  Especially one that overheats as much as the 360 does.

Depends on the game. Usually these days, if a game comes out for both consoles and the PC, it's been originally designed for the console and ported to the PC, which sometimes single-handedly makes the game a disaster (see: Deus Ex Invisible War, which should never have been designed for the Xbox) and more often than not leads to some UI headaches for PC gamers. Oblivion suffered in this regard, Shadowrun had fixed mouse sensitivity because of the game's console focus (though I don't know many people who liked the game in the first place).

But my computer isn't terribly awesome, frankly, and the lure of consoles is that when you buy a game, you're pretty much guaranteed to get the same performance out of it that everybody else does. You never have to worry about drivers or compatibility issues, either.

Storm Rider:
It might be worth noting to some of the bigger Portal fans here that Valve is producing a plushie companion cube. It sucks that GLaDOS doesn't have a physical form that could be turned into a plushie. Oh well.

AngelofShadows:
I have the orange box for the 360, and I love it. I'm going through Half life 2 now.....but I may stop to play portal just cause of that damn song. Good lord. I love it. I love it with all my heart. If it were a woman, I would attempt to seduce her.
