I really really really want to play Halo 2 online aganst this self-convinced friend of mine, and show him who's boss...
Apart from that, well, PC will win all the time.
FPS, precision and speed.
Racing, why have a joypad when you have a fully modelled car cockpit with Logitech G25 sterring wheel, with three pedals, manual shifter (or semi-auto stick, if you like... wimps) and handbrake? :D Well, for one thing, it costs a lot less and only takes up about 20cm x 10cm desk space, rather than most of a room... Yeah...

RTS, again, precision and speed. You can't have that without a mouse.

This really is time for revenge. BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!

Edit:
exactly what i was thinking, i just hope they release battlefield(or other ranked/stats collecting games) so i can stat pad myself silly on a console heavy server, and also screaming kiddies is better than script kiddies

Agreed there. I hate script kiddies... Problem is, they'll find an exploit, they always do.

Ohh this is a bad thing. PC gamers will own the Console gamers, then they will complain, microsoft will make console only servers, and pc only servers, then the people with pc's will find a way to hack their way into the console only servers just for lulz, and then microsoft will end up ending the whole cross-platform thing, and they will be set back a few million. Oh what fun! :rolleyes:
