Well I have everything except a PS3.Originally Posted by Seedler
Those who cling to only one system miss out on great games.
They all have much to offer.
Neg. Consoles are for the simpler peoples who like to use the noobstick for easier handling. Microing is where the proness is at.

How is that when it's easier to handle a mouse?
I think I'm better at games than many pure PC only players simply because they can't handle FPSs without a mouse. I heard folks give up on RE4 cause they can't handle the controls. I did momentarily.
Consoles are for folks that wanna play games immediately with very little no config. Also they wanna play it on any size screen and can move it from place to place very easy.
I was playing God Of War on a big screen during vacation in Mehico.
Streamline the PC gaming experience for entertainment centers and not just for someone's bedroom or office and then consoles would be eliminated entirely.

The "noobstick" is horrific for FPS games though, I played some console FPS game this weekend and it's like wading in mud.
"Oh, there's a bad guy behind me I shall quickly turn around. Turning. Turning. Turning. Turning. Too far. Too far again. Dead. "
PC player:
"Bam! Headshot!"
The PC player still requires skill but he's not hampered by a crappy control set-up so his natural skill/crapness can shine through. Somebody who can do well with a "noobstick" is akin to somebody overcoming a disability to do well at a sport. Like that one legged wrestler, Zach Gowan.

So true.The "noobstick" is horrific for FPS games though, I played some console FPS game this weekend and it's like wading in mud.

Like that one legged wrestler, Zach Gowan.No doubt the mouse is better which is why I don't understand why there aren't mice for consoles.
Analog sticks require way more timing and precision (for many, an inordinate amount of it). If you push hard right you turn faster. You see your target, you must time not pushing the stick anymore.
The one thing I hate about mouse setups is using a keyboard. I don't understand why most folks don't have an 8(or more)-button mouse.
Also there needs to be a small analog stick for movement since the mouse is for looking....(I guess kinda like the Wii nunchuka accessory).

i think xbox360 is better because it has a lot of game unlike ps3
but sony may get more games soon i know sony is not going to leave the challenge like that
If you look at some of the screenshot comparisons on 1up, it would seem to be just about even, with some games looking better on the 360, while some look better on the PS3. Some people make a good point, though, in their criticism of that comparison based on the fact that the PS3 screenshots were only in 720p.
I bought a PS3 as soon as they were readily available in my area. I can't complain. The games have been slow to come out thus far, as they are for any new system but, combined with some very worthy PS2 games that look amazing upconverted, there's certainly no loss for new games. Even though I'm in my 30s, I'm just not "adult" enough a gamer for the steady diet of FPSs on the 360.
