1214232 2011-07-04 07:16:00 I must tell you gears 3 looks friggen wicked, im almost tempted to go and get an xbox just to play that

Is that gears of war 3?

I have the first one, spent about 10 minutes on it, swore to never again play a FPS with a gamepad.

1214233 2011-07-04 07:23:00 It might look better for graphics than other PS3 games but....

Battle Field 3 is an FPS game.

If you are on a PS3, you are not using a mouse.

It will suck, no matter what the graphics are like.

Haha typical PC fanboy.

Find me one FPS on consoles that has sucked because you are not using a mouse. (If you say all of them you've just proved my next point :))

People who can't play FPS with controller = crap.

$10 says BF3 on consoles will not "suck, no matter what the graphics are like".

And Melta, maybe you need to spend more than 10 minutes on Gears because it's not a FPS.

1214234 2011-07-04 07:36:00 In that case it must be third person, In which case I wouldn't play it on any system, even the superiour control system of a mouse and keyboard wouldn't sway me. Metla (12)

It ruins it for me, Definitly the game won't be crap by any standards

It ruins it for me.

Hell, I could change the channels on my telly with a stick if I was so inclined but I choose to use the remote as its the superior control system....

The point on control systems is every bit as valid as your point about cost of upgrades. For you its a simple matter, Others may make good money and consider it money well spent.

So while they won't share your point of view that doesn't make them wrong, crap or a fanboy.

Personally I'll be buying a new video card just for BF3, and it will go into the PC I have recently built.

You might be able to get reasonably good with a controller but it's still about as good as being really good at playing with barbie dolls . No matter how good you are, it's still a barbie doll .

Besides, the facts speak for themselves:


Microsoft at one point had plans to bridge Xbox and Windows gaming, but eventually killed them, because in cross-platform matches, console gamers couldn't hack it .

So says Rahul Sood, founder of Voodoo PC and CTO of HP's gaming biz, fingering a rumor that Microsoft was hoping to bring PC and console gamers together under its LIVE multiplayer brand in games like Unreal and Gears of War .

"This was all part of their Live strategy, and had Microsoft just stuck to their guns and made it work PC Gaming might be in a much better position than it is today," wrote Sood on his blog .

Sood says the project was "designed to allow console gamers and PC gamers to interact and battle over a connected environment," and that "during the development they brought together the best console gamers to play mediocre PC gamers at the same game," keyboard and mouse against console gamepad .

The results?

"The console players got destroyed every time," says Sood . "So much so that it would be embarrassing to the XBOX team in general had Microsoft launched this initiative .
