The first one seemed funny at first, then I realized it made no sense for console to say that to PC. I’m pretty sure PC has just as many, if not more online games than consoles. The second one is meh, third one is meh, seems like it’s assuming that console gamers don’t get addicted to gaming. I guess consoles just aren’t trying hard enough to make good games :s

Having recently shifted house, here’s my two cents.

PC unit, monitor, PC to monitor wire, PC power wire, monitor power wire, keyboard, mouse, headphones, modem dongle.

A lot of unplugging, lugging and replugging to keep my game on.

I completely agree, I hate using a controller for RTSs. There is one thing that the N64 had though, most emulators could run it ok. It’s a lot easier to run SC for N64 on a brewed PSP or Pandora than it is to emulate Windows 95 then setup some insane controls to emulate the keyboard and mouse. I’m into nostalgic gaming and I love the portability now a days, yeah there are laptops but I can’t shove that in my shirt pocket.

I’m a gamer, and I game on both the pc and console. That being said, HOW I game on each is different. I have pc for free online time killers, Diablo 2, and… well… that’s really it…. I haven’t played an MMO in quite some time. On the Xbox 360, I play Halo Reach (mostly in forge… I love creating things…). And for my psp… well… it’s pretty much for when I’m away from both… I only have FF-Dissidia for it. One thing I’ll say about PC exclusive games… of the ones I’ve played… I haven’t beaten any in a day. Is it just me, or do many new console games seem too easy?

I don’t know why everyone’s getting so worked up, it’s just a comic and wherever you stand on the “issue” is just a matter of preference. I grew up with consoles and even prefer playing FPS games on them because that’s how I learned it. It feels weird to have to sit at a desk to play a game. And if I’m playing something that doesn’t require a lot of attention, I like to have my computer open to some cartoon or something like that, you know, for background noise. If you like the PC better, that’s fine too, what’s important is that we’re all playing games and having fun
