As far as I remember, dethtoll has played Condemned 2 on his 360 and quite enjoyed it.
Only he can tell us though.

I keep reading this thread title and thinking, "No, I'm perfectly happy with mine!" I find it complements my PC very well. Apart from its cooling fans not working properly at first (due to badly applied cooling paste - it's okay now, though) there's nothing I'd be disappointed with. There are enough great games that I can't play on any other platform. What's there to be disappointed about?

Innit. It's a shame that the flagship thread for the PS3 on this forum has such a negative title.
I much prefer mine to my 360, and that's even having just bought a new 360.

We're just lazy thread starters, is all. And besides, I find the irony in what this thread's turned into compared to its original intent rather delicious.

I can change the thread's title if people really wanted me to. Honestly I don't really see the need, but if the demand is high enough.

I say change it. The purpose and tone of the thread has changed, why not the thread title as well?
As to Condemned 2...
The story gets very, very silly towards the end. It starts off being halfway interesting, with a major character in the first game meeting a mean-spirited end before the game even begins, and the first part of the game being the investigation. Things start getting weird, though, and the story takes a nosedive, ironically enough, at the end of one of the best levels in the entire game- a snowbound old lodge in the grim up north- this is the scene of the infamous bear sequence.
The gameplay is an improvement in almost every way on the first game- fighting, forensics, even the guns are easier to manage, though there's a lot more shooting and on a controller that's a fucking joke. (hi Aja) The story, though... ugh. About the only thing that keeps it going for me is the environments are at least neat.

Is Move+DS3 really enough for games like RE5 or Heavy Rain ?
I've got the move starter pack but still haven't tried it.
Or additional nav controller is a must? I can imagine how inconvenient it is to hold DS3 with just one hand. Maybe it works good enough if DS3 sits on lap or something.

But I'm still disappointed...

242: While I think the navigational controller is definitely better than holding a DS3 by one prong, it's not without its flaws. Like the Move itself, it's an ergonomic nightmare with poorly thought out button placement and a not uncomfortable, but unsettling feel. Something just doesn't feel right about it.
So while I love the accuracy of the Move experience on the PS3, I can't help but feel they should have put more thought into the ergonomic design of the thing.

I've heard that using the Dual Shock as a nunchaku is uncomfortable and can lead to your hand aching after a while. If you're going to playing traditional titles with Move controls, then yeah, you should probably invest in the nunchaku addon.
