I've argued this before. It can't be beaten on a competitive level, but on a standard level a joypad can be just as much fun, for me, I would argue more so.

I've always felt that in terms of enjoyment both the pad and the keyboard and mouse are more than acceptable. In terms of performance a kb+mouse blows the pad away but my competitive TFC days are long behind me, i'm only in this for fun these days so i'll just play whatever is good, regardless of what control method is required.

I see this argument all the time. The 360 has plenty of console exclusives.

Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Crackdown, Infinite Undiscovery, Star Ocean 4, Dead Rising, PGR3, PGR4, Halo 3, Gears of War 2, Banjo Kazooie Nuts & Bolts, Fable 2, GTA IV: L&D & Ballad of Gay Tony, Halo Wars, Last Remnant, Kameo, Lips, Scene It, Tales of Vesperia, Beautiful Katamari and as far as I know Forza 3, Crackdown 2 and Halo ODST haven't been announced for the PC. I'll be missing quite a few too as this off the top of my head

I haven't even started with XBLA or Community titles like Pac Man CE, Castle Crashers, Braid (is this out yet for the PC?), Geo Wars 2, The Maw etc. Also add the new live show channel which is coming soon and includes 1vs100 etc.

There's plenty of stuff tbh

Good list there, quite a few that interest me too actually.

And on top of the argument, people really shouldn't underestimate Achievements. Getting that little extra achievement on a game over friends really is great fun, especially if it's not easier. I know you actually like this because you platinum games on PS3, but the achievement system is so set up for instant comparison with anyone, any time, no syncing, instantly and can also be done online.

The reason it's done is because Xbox360 has implemented this from the very start, so it's involved in every way, this is, as I mentioned briefly above, moving into avatar clothing etc... now. Very exciting times.

Oh, and one more thing. Natal.

And I assume it's going to be implemented on some old games as it's currently set up and working with Burnout Paradise, which SuperKaylo was shown playing in this weeks "SentUAMessage"

Achievements, certainly, i'll never be able to catch up with people who go for the high scores as, as i said previously, all multiplayer games will go on the PS3 as that's where my mates play so my achievements will be split between consoles. But games like Assassins Creed which i basically just quickly played through i will be redoing for achievements just because i like that '100%' feeling and the PS3 version never got trophies patched in (this applies to many of the older games).

Natal really doesn't interest me i'm afraid, but then neither does Wii motion plus or that weird Sony day-glo motion detecting sex toy. Had my fill of motion sensing crap. I've been watching it closely and frankly, i just like a control pad.

NokkonWud · 24-06-2009, 22:40

It's not about the high scores, it's about the 1k's.

I too am not a fan of motion sensing, but Natal really looks to have so many possibilities outside of gaming.
