Console or PC - The ultimate gaming question?
they both have advantages and disadvantages, a couple of years ago, Pc without a dubt, but consoles are advancing...
consoles have the net now
you don't need to upgrade a console, all the games run perfectly and smoothly
no instalation on consoles
...But can they ever match the versatility of a PC?

It has been kicked many times before. I don't have high speed IC at the moment, but when I did I spent a great deal of time getting my butt handed to me. When I get into a room I tend to focus on the jerks sniping. I'll die a hundred deaths to get the jackass on the tower.Hierachy wrote:ok, ill kick your ass at UT or CS later then Crommas...

You are so dead! Actually I've found most of the good sniping places in most maps and I've used my scope more than a few times. "HEADSHOT!"Hierachy wrote:lol, im the jerk on the tower, I love to camp!

HAH! Some games are worse than others. Soldier of Fortune did a pretty good job of body damage although it seemed a little grusome to watch a thug hop on one leg when the other had been blown off. You just had to put him out of his misery quick. I'm really glad we're talking about games.Hierachy wrote:yes, although it seems to say "headshot" even when you hit them in the leg...

My two favorite gaming experiences (Ultima Online and Baldur's Gate II) were on the PC. And nothing quite beats the fun of online games like Tribes 2. Nonetheless, that won't keep me from drooling when I get a shiny new PS2 for X-mas!

Okay...I still don't get it...
...everyone swears by PC FPS' vs. Console FPS'...and yet, I've always felt that console FPS' have a far more realistic movement speed and feel than their PC counterparts...
...I can see how one can target faster with a mouse...but...I dunno...just always felt better on console...

Anyway, movement speed is dependent on the particular game. I personally feel that the movement in most console games is too slow; but then, I'm used to the rough-and-tumble of Unreal Tournament on the PC (don't try it on the console). Of course, I also know how fast I can run, and UT feels more like that.

True...but can you keep up that pace and energy level very long? Maybe that would be a unique idea for an FPS...Rigel wrote:You poor, sad man... j/k

Console all the way.
My PC is for internet, and other computery related things.

This is a toughie, mainly because I agree that some games and types of games work better on the PC (RTS, FPS), but overall I'd give up the headache of installing with fingers crossed that the sucker works to play on a console any day. Plus, PC's don't tend to have as many weird peripherals, which I seem to be a mark for.
