[QUOTE="Cityboy_"]You have to get more then one source to make it AAACityboy_

No you don't.

AAA on Gamespot System Wars forum is a score of 9.0 to 9.5. The score we officially go by here, are Gamespot's.

That is a narrow minded way of thinking. It is more like you choosing a platform in order to support your belief or what you would like to believe is true. GS does an excellent job of what they do...but step outside and understand that there are more sources.

I think everybody else owned you sufficiently with Metacritic sources... Which by the way, takes multiple reviews into account :lol:

Maybe you like console FPS because of all the aim assist it gives you. Thats the only way I could even see a controller being even equal with a mouse.

He's got a point. It's a theory and it gets challenged by marginal philosphers.

Matchmaking, however, is not aa theory.

wow level 1, here are a few

1. MUCH better graphics, not slightly noticable in the least unless you are farsighted or something

2. Mouse and Keyboard is sooooo much better, controllers feel like swimming in honey

3. If you want a controller, thousands of 3rd party possibilities exist, hundreds of joysticks, many wheel + pedal combos, and other cool accessories like headtracking hardware, ballistic vests which hit you where you get shot (no. i don't have one, but it's cool), etc

4. Framerate on consoles is awful, many games are locked at 30 which gives me a headache, and action scenes frequently put it sub 20

5. Mods and user generated content may not be available for all games, but almost any decent game has a good mod base which adds infinate fun to games like Half-life 2 or Crysis

6. Mount and Blade

7. More customizable sound options, for instance, I have a headset that has 4 speakers in each cup and a subwoofer with rumble all in the headset, and also a 5.1 system hooked up to an x-fi xtremegamer. This whole setup maybe cost $100 (I'm a smart shopper) and if you are short on cash, any modern motherboard can output surround sound

8. I prefer sitting in a good desk chair with my PC to my left, wii and Xbox 360 to my right, and a simple switch to go between the 3 on my kickass monitor right in front

As a side note, I do play consoles occassionally, but really only when I can't get a pc version of a games or the pc version sucks, which in 90% of cases, the game sucks anyway so I don't want it. I earnestly hope that GFWL really kicks off more so that we can have cross-platform gaming and we can both have it our way, but until then, it's PC for FPS, RPG, RTS, Racing, and 360 for sports, with wii for collecting dust and whatever Zelda games come out.

Not really. Something that has been tested and proven true becomes a Scientific Law.

Gravity is a theory because we can't explain it. Specifically, why it's so weak compared to the other forces. The 'Graviton' has never been discovered, it's just 'theorized'. Therefore, it's a theory.

I can understand the TC's point of view... but I don't agree necessarily.... some FPS I prefer on 360, some on PC. CoD I prefer on 360, Bioshock 2, Left4 Dead 2& Borderlands I prefer on PC.

JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN USE A CONTROLLER ON THE PC DOESNT MEAN YOU SHOULD. I CAN USE MY CELL PHONE AS A VIDEO CAMERA AND STILL CAMERA. THAT DOESNT MEAN ITS GOING TO REPLACE MY STAND ALONE VIDEO CAMERA AND STILL CAMERA.

THANKS FOR LISTENING.

Just because you can be condescending and type in CAPS doesn't mean YOU should.

What if you're a "hardcore" gamer that prefers the options and graphics of a PC, that has bad carpel tunnel? Shouldn't use a controller?

What if you don't play online and prefer the perceived comfort of a controller? What if I have my PC hooked into the 52 inch HDTV, and don't always feel like using a lap board?

What if , OMG you have a preference?

:roll:

Thanks for listening.

I like using a 360 controller on my PC for any action game that will let me. The keyboard + mouse isn't as fun for me. I don't understand why people make such a big deal about it. I like the mouse for RTS and watching porn.

Not saying anything about playing PC games. I was simply saying that not everyone wants to mess with hooking up and configuring a controller for the PC. AND believe me, I know about carpel tunnel.

ON another note though...I see "and have done it myself" people hook their pcs into a tv. I see PCfanboys always talking about how their graphics are 10 years ahead of consoles "laughable"...WHY do they say "hook up to your tv" when your tv is at best 1080p? Arent pc games way beyond 1080p? I ask this not in sarcasm or hate, but as a serious question.

Why you say that?

The PC can do what all the consoles do but better, I'm pretty sure you didn't know the 360 controller can be used for the PC.

but if you do that you would get murdered so it does not count :P

You're totally right. You cannot argue against the mouse, you may not be used to it at first, but learning to game with a mouse with make you sooo precise it your mouse on all other applications. Keyboard however, can be awkward for almost anyone. I'm not a big fan of it, but it's not that bad once you get used to it. Plus you get more buttons! Mouse for RPG, RTS, FPS and Point and Clicks. Everything else, controller.

[QUOTE="Cityboy_"]I have played FPS for along time. I think FPS plays better on a console now. I can't get into the whole keyboard and mouse thing.

you've been playing fps for a long time but can't get into the kb & m?

Well, the first FPSs were only played with the cursor keys and no mouse (Wolfenstein3D, Doom, Heretic, Hexen, etc...) :P

Anyway, while i agree PC is still the best place for FPSs and, right now im more used to play them with a controller.

So why hasn't gamespot put a minimum level on creating new threads yet? Look at the first post of the tc and his responses throughout this entire thread.. it's so obvious it can't be more obvious.

Well, it was probably possible but not usual for sure. The first shooters that i remember using mouse were Quake2, Heretic2 and Hexen2 i think.

You have seen the facts. But you don´t want to acknowledge them. Your comebacks were all opinions.

Don´t try to extend this thread anymore,you have failed.
