It's not quite the same though is it, people who buy laptops just aren't gamers in the same sense as their desktop counterparts.
And also just because people own PCs now doesn't mean they're not on their way out. I'm pretty sure most people have DVD players in their houses, but there's no denying they're dead.[/QUOTE]
What? So pc's are dead because, everyone has one, and this is proven by the fact that dvd's are dying..... because everyone has one? DVD's aren't dead, in any way shape or form, and blurays are just the new dvd, people will still buy a device to stick under their tv from which to play films and tv from. The idea of the platform isn't dead and never will be.
Using a ridiculously bad argument to prove another one = fail.
PC's aren't dead and never will be, people live on e-mail, and office, internet, and consoles are shockingly poor at all these things, working across the room on a big tv to do those things is, never going to happen, not having a real and comftable input device, not going to happen.
Tv and the area around it, entertainment, computer in a bedroom/study or moveable laptop = work, consoles won't breach the "work" barrier on PC's and thus they'll always be around, especially as more computers for work at home and in offices are sold than consoles put together by a ridiculous amount.
I couldn't name a single person, including my 82yr old gran now, who doesn't have a PC, and the majority of people I know don't have consoles, most people my age do, most parents(45-50+) with kids who have left home and most older people simply don't have consoles and won't.
This all ignoring the fact that consoles ARE small PC's and are becoming more like PC's every generation with both the next xbox/ps4 likely to have hardware even closer to that in normal pc's.

Just to make it clear, I didn't say that! I messed up my quoting in my post above
I'm arguing that tablets are making PCs redundant for everything but work and games.
Whoa tablets wont replace PCs until they either get proper tactile touchscreen feedback or they get decent hardware keyboards (ahem netbook/ultrabook)
I'd have to argue that point Zefan. Whilst the likes of me and you might not use them anymore, I'd say there's no denying DVDs are very much alive and well. I doubt they'll die out the same way VHS players did and will continue to be present in many people's homes for a good long time yet.

Cod on a ps3 works pretty well, i enjoyed it and i was pretty decent at it. No you cant spin as quickly as you can with a keyboard and mouse, but then neither can your opponents so nimble use of the pad is very useful.
what you mean like the auto help in the PC version that tells you how to do everything and even tells you "you've spotted a friend" in case you weren't sure who the people in front of you were ?
LOL this whole elitist PC gamer crap is sad.
The gamers in the video are probably a bunch of middle aged n00b journalists with no talent.
As for the aiming not being smooth. Its with a pad rather than a mouse , what were you expecting ?
Of course they will be
But it will be the same as for the current version, you just un tick the box marked "auto help" in the options to turn them off.
well yeah obviously. Because the control mechanism is a pad, not a mouse. And one controlled by a middle aged useless journalist probably. What were you expecting ?

There's no contest between the precision of a keyboard and mouse and the gamepad, but the person playing that video is quite clearly terrible at games or possibly lacking opposable thumbs.

I dont think anyone was expecting footage of someone attempting to play a CS game with a gamepad to look good but people are commenting on how it is funny to watch, as you would have to be mentally deficient to think that it is a better way to play an FPS. I mean that guy playing didnt seem to know that the Y-axis even exists its like watching someone who has only ever played Doom and has been in a coma since then.
Oh well, at least it'll be free kills when the game is launched, and all the scrub console players will nerd rage within about a week due to getting ripped a new ******* every time they play. I can just smell the "OMGHAX" comments coming already.
Irrelevant, CoD has aim assist, CS does not.

lol so if it wasn't for COD's aim assist, it would look exactly like the video with the idiot in the OP right ?
Whatever
No, not that bad. But not half as good, either.
BC2 gameplay footage would be a better comparison, since I'm pretty sure BC2 has no aim assist at all.
