for the Xbox 360. Be it beta test or whatever. Are the graphics as bad as GTAIV? Is there a huge need for AA and AF? Is the viewing range severely limited? Any idea if the PC version will have online activation crap?

I am trying to decide if I should pre-order the PC or the 360 version.
Thanks in advance.

I seriously doubt it will be in serious need of af or aa. it'sa bethesda game so it wont be that bad. Judging from the 5 (or is it 6) HD play through videos; fallout 3 looks ok.

If u thought oblivion was fine on the xbox then this will be acceptable as it looks an improvement.

I would order the pc version over the 360 version though; playing with mouse and keyboard pwns a joypad anyday.

Hmm, I hope so, the GTAIV looks horrible to my eyes on the 360. But, what about DRM on the PC version, any news on that yet?

My guess is, it will use SecuRom, as almost all of todays games are using it.

Securom is the online activate 3-5 times crap, right?

not necessarily afaik. depends on what version of securom they use. other than the crap on Spore, i am generally fine with buying securom games.

And yeh, I agree that gta4 looks like crap on the 360, especially the shadows. I dont see any of that in the fallout 3 vids though - though i dont see it in any other game either.
