Orange box 360 or PC?

any game that requires precision is going to be better with a KB+mouse. it just cant be done with a pad. games designed for pads from the ground up are fair enough. can you image thouse with a KB+mouse though? they'd be stupidly easy!

Wish you would stop saying this rubbish, it's clear that you obviously useless with the pad, fortunately we're not all in the same boat as you.

Well he has a point, imagine console games without build in auto-aim on a pad.

They don't all have it :confused:

To say all FPS is "fail" is just a **** comment.

In almost all games you can turn it on and off and guess what? They still work well without it.

for games like halo which are tailored to pads I agree but TF2 is complete balls on the 360 compared to the PC version.

But at the same time, when everyone is on a level playing field it's still enjoyable.

Absolutely, but TF2 is designed from the ground up with a mouse in mind and so works better, Halo is designed from the ground up for the pad and as such works better on that.

I honestly could not play as a Scout for example on TF2 on a pad after playing it on PC

lol, it's mad playing as a Scout on the pad. I think I said to you on MSN when it came out that all the other characters work well on a pad, but the Scout doesn't.

Inoshishi · 9 Jul 2008 at 21:27

Yeah I think you could get away with most of the other classes on pad, but scout is my prefered class and you really need the twitch response times that a mouse gives.

PC.

FPS suck on any console as control pads are a very poor solution.

They would suck if you were playing people with a mouse and keyboard.

I take all the **** gamers go to the PC as it's easier?

It's ludicrous the stuff people come out with.

I've got a 360 and a PC so it's a perfectly valid opinion. I've also been playing FPS online since Quakeworld and the 28.8 modem were cutting edge technology.

PCs are far more intuitive for FPS and strategy games. 360 wins elsewhere such as sports games, racing games etc.

Like I said, it's easier to use a mouse and keyboard but no way do they "suck" on consoles.

It's not necessarily easier, there's just a greater margin for the development of skill. A gamepad is more limited in that respect.

Our opinions differ. Cope with it.

So sick of hearing such bull**** from such uninformed people as yourself. It's getting very tiresome now.

FPS games DO NOT suck on control pads which is why they sell so well.
