Would have to be, since Chris asked about possibly picking up an XBox version. There's only one Evil Dead game for the XBox.

That being said.. if you MUST get it, get the Xbox version obviously. If the 3 versions are the same, the Xbox version will probably have a slight edge if they decided to take use of the extra graphic power or 5.1 sound. If not, there's always the not wasting space on memory cards of other systems.
Good lord, man, what games DO you like

Seriously tho, I'd also agree to give it a rent first. On PS2, that is. Only because I have played it on PS2 only. IMO, pixyboi couldn't be more wrong about it being the worst game ever played on his tv. I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10, and only because it was a tad short. If you saw the Matrix Reloaded, it'll make more sense. The fighting is simply amazing, and the cut scenes are very well done, and feature parts of the movie, which was cool

back in the day I was a HUGE fan of the ps/2 controller... but after owning da box for awhile, I always get the xbox version of a game if there is one. Seems to be more hd support, more in game 5.1 support, no need for memory cards etc. Not to mention that a ps1-controller-on-xbox adapter thing is like $4.99... if the box's controller sucked for a certain game I can always use a ps one.
