Yes, all my friends are on PSN and a few did mention that they want to play with me after I get the game. So you think the advantage of the co-op on PSN could over-weight of the cons of having worse gfx?
Having seen both versions extensively, the games look virtually identical in motion. I've played the PS3 version for dozens of hours and I never saw one bit of slowdown. The water looks fine, too (except in 2-1, which looks bad in both versions). So go with the PS3 version for free online, your friends and a more comfy controller.
As for what characters we like using... I guess I'm the only one who likes Safari Chris. Seriously, switch to Safari and rewatch the cutscene "Sky-high Skirmish," and try and tell me he DOESN'T look like a bona fide BAMF when
holds him at gunpoint. He may look funny in his render on the Costume Select screen (due in large part to an unflattering pose that makes him look too "square"), but in motion and from the right angles the zebra duds, silver hair and shades look
tight.
Plus, in Mercs he's your go-to guys for insta-kills against big bads. Well, until he's outta rockets anyway. He's a godsend on Prison where the Fire Executioner would otherwise take forever to destroy.
Speaking of which, I had the most badass moment in Mercs today. I was playing splitscreen with my brother on Ship Deck, we were both at the top of the tallest tower (the one with the proximity mines), when my bro took the zipline down to the other tower (the one with two rockets) and I stayed behind to rig mines at the top of the ladder. At that moment TWO Chainsaw Majinis hopped up. I unload a shotty on them, they come after me and nearly slice my head off as I slide down the zipline.
At the same time, my brother shoots a rocket from the tower on the other side, which passes right under my legs as I'm halfway down the zipline. On his half of the screen I see both myself sliding toward him and his rocket flying past me, causing the two Chainsaw Majini on the plat to explode.
EPIC.
