Asassins Creed Pc vs. 360

I really want to get Assassins Creed. I am ready to buy it, but I don't know which system to get it for. I have an Xbox 360 and a good computer (8800GTX, Q6600, 6 gig RAM, etc.) I am leaning towards the PC, but my main concerns are:
1. I know that there are a lot of reviews that say it gets repetative on the console, but the com adds some new minigames. Is this worth it?
2. Generally, computers have better graphics than the consoles. Will my PC run at higher settings to the point where it is noticeable? I can run at a maximum resolution of 1680X1280
3. My most important concern is the control scheme. I know the game is styled after parquor, but is it better with a console controller or a mouse/keyboard? If need be, I can buy a wired controller (thinking about one anyways) and use that for the PC as well as the 360.
4. Lastly, is there enough free content for download on the computer that it is worth it? I don't plan on buying the points for Live to download things, so I would prefer to just use the internet on my computer.

Any help that can be given will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Well DX10 will enhance the game more than what the 360 can do. Plus your rig will be able to play it max with everything pumped easily.

I myself haven't played it and wish they had a demo but it looks great on the PC.

as far as controller/keyboard and mouse. Its fine if you have a mouse that has a couple extra buttons on it. Although its still not bad if you dont, but you can tell the game was created with a controller in mind.

I dont know what minigames you speak of? Maybe they threw a couple extra missions in there for the pc or sumthin, but even on the pc it gets kind of repetitious. go to the city gather intel kill the guy, go to the city gather intel kill the guy. It may sound negative but trust me when I say the fighting, scenery and storyline definitely outweigh any short comings this game has.

I havent checked to see if there was any sort of modding scene or downloadable content for this game yet.

Cool, hope you enjoy it

I agree with tsd16, the game play is repedetive, but the visuals make up for that, it really is a spectacularly pretty game.

P.S. on a random side note, if you currently have a broken elbow like me, the 360 controller is far easier to use than the keaboard (;

luckily, ive been skipping over anything that sounds remotely like the plot in reviews and such, so I havent heard very much.

next time, just let those kids burn inside the preschool. It's not worth breaking an arm.
