i pick consoles are for kids, i dont play them no more cuz i feel too old to be sitting there playing on a console and most people who has consoles that i know are younger then me.

to me there just cheap pcs for those who cant afford gaming pcs. i quited consoles 6 yrs ago because they was collection dust and i was playing my computer more then my consoles.

i grew up on gaming on pc so i am a pc person at heart. i want to beable to mod my games, Download new maps ,models, edit games to play a difent music file for this lv and so forth, i got bored with consoles cuz you would be playing the same game over and over and over and over. thats why they collected dust.

who ever voted pc gaming is dead must have been droped on there heards a couple of times when they was a baby.

playing FPS on consoles isnt that hard. Its not as precvise as a mouse but guess what, everyone else in the game is using a mouse either so you have the same capabilities.

Halo was the first one I didnt have an issue with though of course a mouse would offer finer control.

The X360 supports USB keyboards, so im guessing in time we may have a USB mouse for it with ingame options.. that would be a very cool feature if it was rolled out.

Pissed

I agree.. Halo was the only FPS that I was able to fairly aim well, thanks to auto aim and some serious tweaking by Bungie. The game was so amazing (at that time) that I was able to enjoy it without too much trouble. But any other FPS, unless something special (Black maybe?) won't be worth my time. Nothing is more frustrating then having to tap-tap-tap yourself over the enemy to line up the crosshairs!


ps. luv your avatar Z! .. that's great!

Can't get Socom 3 on PC. I have 3 PC's - 3 PS2's - 1 Laptop - and 1 PS3 on order. Had the X-box,SNES,SEGA, etc. I just don't like the fact that you have to use 20 different keys to play PC games. I use my PC for music, 3d creating through Bryce and work of course. LOL.
Hope they can all just get along.

I voted for harmoney, both have ther adventages. I have a PC for FPS and my 360 for Driving games. Plus the better half loves platformers and i havent seen a decent one on the PC. Kameo fo rthe 360 is one nice looking game.

Personally, having grown up on consoles, I find it difficult to control any game with a keyboard and mouse. I guess I'm just too used to a gamepad. Plus, I'm not really into FPS games that much, the only ones I ever really liked being Metroid Prime 1 & 2. I'm more into rpg's and adventures, and some action games, and I like the feel of console versions of those genres as opposed to those on PC's. As for my vote, I'm not getting a new console just yet, and although I like Nintendo, I also like games for other consoles equally, so I didn't vote.
