Heh.  Figured I would be pretty close.    That's a man sized machine right there.

Playing PC games hurts my hands and makes me too uncomfortable. Quite the opposite with consoles. I would much rather sit down, relax and play a game of my TV with my GameCube controller than sit at the computer and pretend im having fun playing the latest realistic sim/shooter. I also think console games have much better graphics, and an overall higher production value, and of course have more talented developers working on them, than PC games.

Oh, and i absolutely hate PC gamers who think PC games are so much superior to console games, and just ignore all console games and play Counter Strike or Diablo every single day, and laugh at anyone who plays Nintendo or Playstation. Ignorant pathetic losers.

You know what my real proplem is, its that I am a brutal typer, a 2 finger hen pecker. Now when I play a PC game that makes me use a keyboard, I cant look at the f'in screen because then I cant type the right keys. Oh the joy.

It just takes practice, Cubed. I chicken peck at 108 words a minute with no mistakes, and usually don't even have to look at the screen.

Try the Nostromo SpeedPad n53; it replaces the keyboard in your left hand.  It has three rows of customizable keys, a full scrollwheel (and the best part) is a D-Pad for your thumb to replace the WASD setup.  A SpeedPad and a mouse are the BEST control setup I've used for a FPS; the thumb D-Pad is great... a perfect combination of controller and mouse/keyboard controls.

" Canuck: Don't worry, we all started out like that."

I have worked on a PC for years now, and am only marginally better than when I started, but I am  far from a good typer. When Playing a game and having to think about the game and type, I slow down worse than true crime.

I will take my widescreen TV,  Tiger Woods 04, a cold beer and little green any day.

Well, I guess it depends.  Theres no point in having a good pc and an xbox because alot of as far as I know xbox games that are any good are on the PC also.  The PC has alot of cool games and definetly when it comes to FPS its alot easier to aim.  As I said there is no reason to have a Gaming Pc and a xbox.  Ultimatly I would have to say PC because of the larger game variety, possible better graphics, easier online play.  The only downfall to the PC i think is that you cant really have 4 people playing at your house at the same time unless you have 4 pc's.  So I guess it really comes down to who you are, if you always have people over at your house, console.  If you prefer to be by yourself and play online with other people you dont really know, PC.  Wow sorry if this didnt make much sense i currently have the flu and am really sick so Im a little out of it.
