I prefer a console than a PC, XBOX 360 is really good.

Console, even though the PC games are fun the console ones are more family-oriented.

I prefer PC because I am on it all the time, but since I have a laptop, and my brother is always on the desktop, I would much rather have a decent console to play on.

I like console more. Xbox 360 controllers seem so.. Easy to use! I love it. Especially the graphics.

I prefer the console because my computer isn't good enough to play many good games.

PC all the way. Nothing beats a mouse and keyboard when it comes to controls, especially with first person shooters. The only games I even consider to buy for console are sports and racing games. Also with PC you get mods and custom maps which can keep a game alive years after its console version is forgotten about.

If you have a high end PC, the graphics are much better than console. You also get more frames per second which makes a game run much smoother.
If you learn to use the controls well, the PC is the ultimate gaming machine.

I agree, Brandon. I tried playing CoD4 on my cousin's XBox and it was really hard, because I am so use to a mouse and keyboard!

All my life I often play pc games since I don't have good consoles like playstation or xbox. Playing games on my pc is great but I really wanted to own a console. If you're used to doing something over and over again, you will want a change someday for sure. I just hope I can save some money to buy ps3 or xbox360.

First person shooters are always best experienced with a keyboard and mouse in my opinion. There is just no comparison. K/M allows for quicker and more precise aiming. They also more realistically replicate real life movement. Joystick controls like on a console for FPSs just don't mix well, I don't care how well one plays on them. From what I hear, many FPSs on consoles actually have an "aim assist" feature which helps players zoom in on targets. What a joke. You don't get that on PC.

That being said, I don't think the platform matters so much. It's the controls that matter. Right now, I prefer gaming on PC. However, should a really good K/M come out for the Xbox 360, I'd be on that really fast. I might not chuck gaming on PC, but I'd certainly spend a lot more time on Xbox.

While I'm on the subject, this might be of interest to many of us here.

This is a really good K/M adapter for Xbox 360. This is not the much hated XFPS, but something totally different. The main product they have out now is called the XIM 2. I own one, and it works pretty well. The downside is that it has to work through your computer, which might lead to compatibility problems. I've had several, and it's a pain to work through. Nevertheless, if you get the settings just right you can feel right at home like it's on PC.

They are coming out with a better version soon though, called the XIM 3. This looks like a much better improvement, particularly because it doesn't need your computer to work through. It works by itself. Looks like they're gonna be coming out with it real soon too.
