I agree. Wouldnt it be cool? I have so many friends who refuse to buy a console haha. Theres just no comparison between the accuracy of a mouse to a controller though. Especially on games like COD

I feel the same way. If there was cross platform action, I'd definitely play more PC games. The main reason I bought a 360 was to play with friends (although now that I have it I love it for so many more reasons then just gaming). I've gotten used to the gamepad, but I still miss my mouse and keyboard.

| The reason that PC players have an advantage is the main reason I PLAY it on the PC. I feel I have so much more control, that I just can't play it on the XBox. (Though the fact that my Xbox is currently RROD doesn't really help either.) |

Oh yea, definitely agreed. The keyboard and mouse trumps the gamepad any day. I've gotten used to the gamepad, but I'm most definitely no pro at it.

I gotta say i was originally a console girl until sof2 really got me into pc gaming so it took me a while to like the mouse and keyboard. Now, though, i find it harder to play with a controller haha. Especially when people are behind me in an fps.

Yeah turning around in an FPS on a controller is really hard, especially when you need to do it fast and accurately. It just doesnt happen (At least for me anyways)
I do have to admit, there are some games that are just more fun on console, but FPS's just can't fit under it. Really, I think most things were you have to navigate in a 3D space are just difficult for console to do well. |

I agree. Halo pulls it off well but my feelings about halo recently arent all that positive. I loved COD4 PC but god i was bad at it on xbox. Really makes a difference.
Ok but i just got back off my xbox after a few hrs of playing borderlands. Taking a break haha its a really nice game. A lot better than i thought it would be. Its lack of coverage made me afraid it would be kinda empty but its seeming pretty together.

I'm really not sure why the game didn't get much coverage to begin with. I assume it's because it's a brand new title getting released with a lot of other sequels to well established titles (ie, COD4 & L4D2). I first got turned onto it via PC Gamer Magazine as it was their feature article one month back in late spring/early summer.
I feel like it's going to become a sleeper hit, possibly sort of in the same realm as Bioshock. I don't remember hearing a lot about that game, then it came out and everyone was raving about it.

Yea i spose youre right. Didnt really seem to have much chance with all the hype being tossed around. What surprises me though is how it didnt get lost in all of it. A lot of people were really eager to play it. There seems to be a lot of upcoming games people mention recently and im like huh? what game is that? I cant put the name to the game no matter how many times ive seen trailers and reviews. This was one of those to me for a while. Sorta got lost in the sea of crappy poo games because of its lack of enthusiastic coverage.
Either way. Its good  AH yea.
