Huge fan of Demon's Souls, was thinking it was time I finally grabbed Dark Souls.

I know the port isn't really that special, locked at 720P and 30fps iirc. I believe there is a mod that might fix this?I can get the game online, brand new for $15 for the ps3, while the pc version is $39.99. This is a pretty drastic difference, and it would take some serious advantages on the pc end to justify the purchase.

For people who have had/used both is the PC version worth it? Assuming the graphics and frame rate are fixable with mods, how is the online compared to consoles? Is there a big enough player base leaving comments, pvping and co-oping? (steam numbers suggest 1,500 which is really low)
Are there any PC only features that make it must have on the PC?

19.90 on PC.
And it come with the DLC while the PS3 one doesn't.

Do you have a good computer? Do you have a controller? If yes, than take the PC version.

Get it for PC.

60fps fix, high res, and more mods coming out like texture replacements.

Other people won't see them, but you will still.

It plays perfectly fine on my ps3 and you can return it if you buy it used at gamestop and dont like it. It should be cheaper too if you do decide to keep it. havent played it on the pc but its not a K&M type game you would need to buy a controller if you dont have one
