So which version is everyone all getting

I'll be playing on the PS3.

Now I'm curious as to whether or not there will be differences between the two versions of DoA 5, like there are for the other fighting games. Hopefully one of you who bought both versions of the game can do an experiment to see if things like the input delay are the same across both platforms.

Undoubtedly, the XBOX 360 will become the console of choice for tournaments, but now that makes me wonder how it would work out if DoA 5 were ever at EVO, since all of the other fighting games are played on the PlayStation 3.

Perhaps Dead or Alive 5 being played on the XBOX 360 at tournaments is not such a given after all.

Lead console in development, yes. Remains to be seen which console proves to be most popular for the game.

I can't see there being many differences between the 360 and PS3 versions, to be honest. I think the only real difference will be the online community. As someone before me said, xbox live may have a larger, more established fanbase, and therefore a greater number of potential match-ups. Even so, I still think the differences will be negligible.

I have the collectors edition pre-ordered already for 360 but I'm very, very tempted to get it for PS3 as well... mainly because I have a couple people near by willing to play offline with me, but not on 360.

Judging from Amazon sales rankings and the fact that PSN is free I'd say PS3 will have more competition online.

As of Sept. 5:
doa5 ps3 us: 329
doa5 360 us: 447
doa5ce ps3 jp: 41
doa5ce 360 jp: 179
*in Japan the CE has more preorders than standard ver

Here's how it stacks up to Tekken Tag 2:
tt2 ps3 us: 61
tt2 360 us: 199
tt2 ps3 jp: 6
tt2 360 jp: 140
*of course should be noted this game is closer to release

Amazon sales rankings are woefully inadequate for predicting sales. They update hourly and aren't cumulative. If they took all sales, from the list date, in aggregate then we'd have something.

Looks like the soundtrack... I wouldn't be surprised if the game's shipped and sitting there waiting for Tekken hype to cool down
