How many people in the world think pc's are better for shooters? Just about anyone thats played a pc fps with a keyboard and mouse in the last 10 years. Excluding you obviously as your stance on ANYTHING changes to suit your attempts at argueing.
I prefer console FPS now

Why are the PC people so confrontational?

Webb is just here cuz he hates 360...

The product is not worth the price when it comes to PCs.

yes but functionality to a pc can be cheap, getting a good enough pc to play games well enough can be pricey, regardless of shopping around

One reason why I stopped PC gaming - sick of upgrading my pc every 12 months to play the latest games.

console FPS sucks since I can't use those analog controls at all, its nauseating when in first person (i can't play Halo or RE4 for more than 2 hours w/o getting sick)

When consoles ship with a mouse and keyboard, I'll get one. I don't wanna have to go buy that shit and get it to work myself. That is all.

you can't say that because it depends on what you want. if you want to play games, ok buy an fps. if you want to browse the internet, have a proper multimedia station, use photoshop, use a calculator, make music, have a million gigs of porn, etc. then how is the product not worth the price? i will gladly pay $1,000 to have a machine that does all these things and so much more. you're wrong.

On console it is easier to do it wrong...but when it is right...there is no reason to play PC FPS games over consoles...it's pretty much same shit almost.
how you can say they are the same shit is beyond me. mouse vs. joystick + autoaim? yeah, that's different shit. you're wrong.

anyone that takes fps gaming seriously. so quite a few. so you're wrong.

as gerv said, no one has to pay "thousands of dollars", a simple graphics card update here and there is all you need.

plays all games at top quality, but that quality will never exceed the console. graphics on pc games can grow as the pc grows; rather than waiting 4 years for the next console to come out. so you're pretty much wrong here.

best choice for who? it's subjective. i like to play an fps properly, in which i have full control over my aim and range of control. i also enjoy having the ability to change graphic options. i enjoy being able to mod games. so you're wrong here again.

again, you just said you can't prove pc's are a better choice compared to consoles; but you can say consoles are the better choice to pc's? how does that fucking work?





you are both a hypocrite; and insanely wrong. it boggles my mind, i knew you were stupid to begin with but god damn. it seems as you've grown older you've gotten worse. even that doesn't make any sense.
