The Club surprised us all last week. We just weren't expecting its arcade-style gameplay to be so addictive. There's no question that you should buy the game, no matter which system you own, but what if you have the choice between the Xbox 360 version and PlayStation 3 version? We're going to compare the two games in four key areas: Graphics, Sound, Gameplay and Multiplayer. Read on for the definitive verdict on which is the best.

Graphics

The Club is an excellent looking game. It might not look like anything too special in screenshots, but Bizarre Creations has managed to make a fluent game that packs in plenty of next-gen effects without making everything shiny. As with many recent multiplatform titles, the differences between the Xbox 360 and PS3 games are minimal, but after extensive play we have noticed a few slight blemishes in the PS3 version. At times the PlayStation 3 game will suffer from frame rate issues. It's not major, but it is noticeable. To our eyes the PS3 game is also rougher in appearance, failing to offer as crisp an image as the Xbox 360 game.

Verdict:
Unless you compare the two games side by side you won't be disappointed, no matter which version you buy. Seeing as we are comparing the two though, the Xbox 360 game is victorious in the Graphics category. A smoother frame rate and a crisper image make it the version to own if you're after the best visual quality.
