Can you remap the keys and set it up to play FPSs with mouselook?
I think it depends on the game.

Of course, you can always just hook your PC to a nice TV if it has a video-out option for the best graphics!:)

I use my pc for most games, the graphics are much better, plays a lot smoother and the control system is far superior (particularly for fps games). Also, playing multi-player games on the net is awesome.

Console games are good for when you have a few mates round, but for single-player, I only use them for games that aren't yet out on pc.

My PS2 only gets used when a new GTA game comes out, I use my Xbox for dvds and Halo games and my GameCube has only been used for Mario Kart and Zelda: Windwaker.

Hmm i play both and this is the argument that I see

PC games...generally better graphics and more of a game....for example Quake two on the PC was way better than Quake 2 on the PS1 bigger game, better play. However I found it difficult to use a mouse and control all the other stuff as well like reloading.

Console games...okay not bad but not generally as big as PC Games however I find that I can learn the game controls faster and it is easier to play.

Each to their own I suppose.

It's actually a mix. I personally prefer the PC because FPS's (my favorite genre) are much better with a mouse and keyboard rather then a controller. Consoles are good as well because they're cheaper to get then a new computer (or upgrade) and are less of a hassle (plug and play). As far as graphics, PC games tend to be better.

Lag losing data $1,000 for new PC's. I don't think the PC is all that good unless you like MMORPGs. I don't think the PC is all that for online shooters.

Personally, I like Xbox Live cuz ya don't want to tip 'n shoot. I like to do voice chat with Xbox Live. Or if you don't have a Xbox then the PS2 is good.

I just don't know of good shooters for it, but I do know of some MMORPGs for it. I'm also not sure if the games are hacked like PSO. :scratch:
