Nope, tried it on the PC with the glasses that came with Batman Arkham, but it gives me a headache.
However it does show how versatile a console the PS3 is, and of course the benefits of having a GPU that doesn't fail regularly.

I can imagine that causing all sorts of framerate troubles, as the PS3 only has a GeForce 7800GT-class GPU. Although I don't think the 360 would handle it any better, as that's about Radeon HD 2400 class.

Yeah, but if you look at it arse-backwards, I paid £150 for my arkham asylum and got a free graphics card with it.. Sorry, I've had a few pints, so I'm not making much sense right now.

It doesn't cause many problems on a PC, but I can't imagine a 360 handling it too well. It has enough trouble with normal games and normal graphics.

Just did a quick google. Still wish we had that on the PS3 if only for the cut scenes

It has plenty of games, but the PS2 usually gets the crap that comes out on the 360 instead - the movie game releases, the straight to the bargain bin ones etc... Aside from Hide & Seek of War 1 & 2 and Forza 2 & 3, the 360 doesn't have much to write home about either - even less if you have a PC to play them on instead. I had a 360 from launch and saw no reason to keep it. After 18 months of ownership it really had outstayed its welcome - multiple hardware failures and a lack of games that weren't a complete embarrassment. PS3 exclusives are invariably better and appear on no other platform. Then, you get what you pay for  .

PS3HASNOGAEMS! And can you make money from fixing PS3 faults? No, thought not.  Buying/fixing/selling X360 RROD's has kept me in racing all this year
