Should be about I think. I've been struggling to play this recently, I just can't get my head into it enough, I'm too slow and I get frustrated and turn it off.

Sinead is at the gym tonight so I'll give it a whirl and see how I get on. I need to be in the right frame of mind to play. If I sit in the wrong position I can't play properly. I know it sounds odd, but I can't sit back. I have to lean forward to be on the ball.

I'm the exact opposite
Last week when we were playing, I didn't feel all that for some reason so I was sitting on the floor leaning against a beanbag and with the quilt cover round me.
Yet I managed to play better than I normally do I think

I did used to find with Counterstrike that if I stopped trying so hard, I'd end up playing better. No idea why.

I'm usually uber tense and have to concentrate to keep up otherwise I die within seconds of respawning!

I wish they'd mix the 360 and pc online matches that would be fun, though I guess one may have an advantage over another.

The dabbled a bit with cross platform balance with Shadowrun. One thing they did was make PC players reticule go bananas when they turn damn fast.. not really sure how well it worked as I always played with a 360 pad anyway

It's a toughie really. Same with balancing RTS games.
