PC gaming dead?

God FPSs suck on consoles.

Honestly I prefer FPS on my Xbox 360 over the PC. I was a huge PC Gamer for awhile always upgrading my rig, custom built, etc. But Xbox Live to play online is just so much better then any PC online gaming and I like the controller over the mouse and keyboard for FPS. I don't PC Game anymore but in the end my main games were City Of Heroes/Villains, Matrix Online, Star Wars, and WoW (mostly MMOs). I still have the games just don't play them anymore.

How can anyone like controllers over a keyboard and mouse? I understand the draw of Live, but not that.

The controller is just.. better. The keyboard and mouse is bland.

FPS and MMOs, as well as RTS games are built for PC.

Some FPS games are console exclusive, but that's because they don't have shit on the PC FPS games, whose main focus is online gaming and COMPETITION.

Hit me with your fanboyism and hatred at full force!

I have nothing against PC Gaming just for me personally I find the controller much better for FPS then a keyboard/mouse. Plus I spend all day sitting in front of my computer working so when I want to relax and game I want to get out of this damn chair and sit on the couch, which makes the Xbox great.

So, gears was initially a console exclusive, and it was an amazing game. You're saying it wasn't focused on online gaming on competition? Bullshit. And don't say "ohh it's on the PC too", because it kicked ass online on the 360.

I was waiting for someone to mention Gears.
two, I understand your reasoning, fair enough.


And I'm sorry, how is a mouse and a keyboard bland? It gives you SOOOOOOOOOOO much more control then that controller does..


Back to Gears.. you see, you didn't read all that I said, or maybe you did and skipped what didn't fit your wishes. Not once have I said Gears wasn't a great game, but when compared with PC FPS you will see that COMPETITIVELY it doesn't have shit on that.

What are you talking about? Console gaming is just as competitive. If your talking about competitions, there are tons of competitions for the consoles... gamebattles for example. You can'ts it here and say PC gamers are more competitive than console gamers.

But they are, and still the professional gaming teams who actually enter events and make money off of FPS games are mainly based on PC games, and maybe Gears when it was "hot".

What sucks about consoles is that games die so fast and there's no loyal fan base or following.
