(Which Ever Mod Moved this, Thank you)
Both platforms have their pro's and con's. It all boils down to your platform of choice.
With that said, Xbox 360... go go go! :P
Both of them have some advantages and disadvantages. The Xbox version is easy to play, but mods are only on pc. From what I heard the pc's User interface is bad and I think you'll need a good rig for the game and the mods/upcoming mods.
I saw the game on my brothers PC. Great to see a game in so much detail...and on the PC you also have the modding commmunity. I see some great Mods comming out. If you can go with the PC.
PC is better for everything, except that you can't easily sit on the couch while playing.
Of course Skyrim looks better on the PC. Buying the monster rig to run it is out of my price range, so I'll buy and XBox.
I would never buy this kind of game for a console, just doesnt feel right playing it with a console remote. Also as stated above, bugs can be ironed out a lot quicker than on the xbox and the amount of mods available makes it just that much more worth it. Besides if he really wants to play on an xbox remote, just grab the xbox remote for windows and the PC version has the options to use an xbox control. I got an xbox remote for PC but havent tested it yet with skyrim.
