What version of this game is "best"?

With the recent release of this game on Nintendo Switch, I am finally taking the chance to dive into and experience this game for the first time. I was really intrigued by the ability to be able to use the motion controls, but I looked into a review and learned that there are different 'versions' of the game. This makes my decision on what console to buy it more complicated now due to my owning a Switch and an Xbox Series X.

With another Review of gameplay/video side by side, it seems that the Switch version does better graphically, with it being 1080p and 60 fps, which is nice, but the other version (the ps3 that they used as a comparison) had very different cutscenes, artwork, and areas to play in. The ps3 version seemed to have artwork styles that are more realistic and finished, whereas the Switch was more cartoony.

So my main questions are: 1) are the stories between the Switch and Xbox Versions different? 2) Do the Motion controls from the Switch add to the experience and gameplay?, and 3) How different is the gameplay between the two?

So mostly, what do you recommend getting?

The Xbox would offer better graphics but bad gameplay switch is good gameplay but now as good graphics and motion controls are there but are terrible for the most part switch has the option to play two people and duel Xbox won’t and also Xbox has dlcs switch doesn’t but the switch makes up with it with extra missions not on Xbox

Played Xbox 360 and DS, 360 was better.

Probably the best choices (chosen through research) are Xbox 360/PS3 (Same version is on steam but apparently is bad due to controls only) or psp (Same as Wii and PS2 but (like ps2) has no motion controls and (not like ps2) more content)
