actually I found out that console games are all arcady and innacurate long ago, back in the Sega Genesis days.
They're geared toward a different audience than PC games. Mostly for kids, because they don't have the patience to sit through a cutscene longer than 4 seconds and only see the middle of the screen, so using a radar or map is out of the question.
(believe me I know about kid attention spans, I "got volunteered" to watch a 6 and 8 year old and I tried to teach them to play X-Wing alliance, WWII fighters, and MOHAA to keep em busy....eh not a good idea)

most PC games are generally more realistic and harder to learn, consoles have endless swarms of enemies in hope to tire you to the point that you make a mistake.
