Ive used my xbox 360 controller more on my PC than i have the actual 360
especially with tombraider legend and condemned, FEAR also controls pretty good with it
I guess it's because I cant afford the 360 games and thats obviously not a problem with PC games.

dammit headshot, you have like every game except those i have! thats ok though, i´ll get graw soon. fix the gold thing. i came to the conclusion thats its pretty cheap for what you get. the whole "money system" suck though. they could at least let me dl some backgrounds for free. and the media center only availablity is a shame too...
damn you to star, you should have bought the console instead of upgraded! but your console needs are probably being kept intact by guitar hero! sure looks like fun!
cant wait for e3. heard we will get alot of stuff, ie demos, trailers on live to dl. games that i´ll keep an eye out for is halo3 (duh), ninja giaden 2 (!?!?), gears of war, alan wake, sc:double agent, and yeah, tons more.
why i actually went for the 360 instead of ps3 or WII is that i know what i get. i like the series on xbox. others might like more japaneese style, but i like western. even though some of my favourite games are in fact from japan. but overall. the only game that i missed on this generation was resident evil 4. but 5 will come on 360.

i've had mine a few months now and love it. Could of spent the cash on upgrading my PC instead but TBH the lack of decent PC games and the shoddy conversions compared to the 360 releases (GRAW,FIFA,Tomb Raider Legends) that still don't run anything like or look anywhere as nice even with the best SLI setup as they do on the 360 , and windows vista requiring a new OS and new graphic cards for directX10 within the next year rmade my choice to get the 360, Its a bargin price machine that currently outdoes the best PC setup with ease, has great LIVE setup and is real good fun.

haha Ive had every decent game for the console but I tend to trade them since they are expensive and games like COD2 I have on PC and has no replayability for me. I played it on Live and it was lagged to the point of ridiculously unplayable! DOA4 I completed all characters and got a bit bored so that got traded too.

exactly how I fealt, true high end gaming on a PC is expensive now to the point where its becoming inaccesible for alot of gamers - its worrying when you see gamers with SLI setups and 2 gigs of ram complaining about not being able to run games in thhere next gen modes (see Tomb Raider Legends). Sure its easy to say that anyone with a job can either set aside money every month or anyone with a good job can just outright purchase one, but the real beauty of the 360 is that for what in direct comparison is a very cheap price, within moments you can start up the machine with minimal fuss, with no worrying about your specs or none of the cruddy ports. The Live service just continues to get better and theres also already a quite varied mix of games taking into account its a new machine.
Not to dismiss the PC of course, I wouldn't have just spent money upgrading if I fealt that way but from a pure gaming point of view PCs are very much being steered down a road which is slowly narrowing year upon year to the point where the majority of the games being released every year are FPS/RTS and RPG with a huge percentage of those FPS games being complete trash.
