if I have the PC version?

As in, how's the community size and quality?
 
Community is rather small and I have a hard time finding matches.
There's a lot more waiting around in Quick Match and usually none of the 1v1 lobbies are anywhere to be found because they fill up.
Being able to message people directly through PSN without adding them is nice though.

Other things I can think of off the top of my head:

- Longer loading screens
- Hard to find matches
- Small community
- No lobbies
- No beta
- Doesn't get bug fixes right away like PC version does
- Pixelated characters during DHC's
- Missing some PC only effects
- No art/music gallery
- Not as strong net code
- Prone to DC's during the character selection

+ Can send hate mail directly without adding people
+ Supports LabZero (Pretty much the main reason why I bought it.) [Even if it's only a small % of money]
 
one thing i will say about the ps3 version is that there are pretty frequent disconnects at the character select or even before you get that far sometimes.

its hard for me to say what the competition is like though since i have never played the PC version to compare it to.
 
I would rather stick with PC version. I have to wait much longer to find a match on PS3.
