Who's "you guys"? I don't appreciate that sort of talk.

Joking, but seriously, I don't know what dirtypeasant.com is.

I don't have that problem because I only play one game. The picture is spot on though, regardless.

You can use a 360 controller for most games, right? Not sure if I would, but I would like having the option.

Most all of the triple a titles work with controllers

It's a lot of the smaller indy games that are KB/M only usually. I have noticed that a lot of the newer indy games are coming with controller support though. Steam is pushing them to I think because of the Steam box.

Most you can, yes. Especially the newer games. Steam even puts an icon by the game in their store to let you know if it's controller compatible or not. I would think you could blue tooth your PS3 controller as well, but I haven't tried it.

Yes you can

Personally I like keyboard and mouse for the extra buttons to bind and click for all my potential actions

But to each their own

I'm honestly surprised controllers are so popular on PC but when my back begins to hurt after playing with kb/m too long, I see why

I had to switch back to controller with BF3. I had the hardest time mapping the keys to something comfortable. I kept throwing grenades when I wanted to knife and whatnot.

I'm just ready to play SP and co-op games on a technologically relevant set-up.

I powered up Arkham Asylum on my PC a few weeks ago, and even though it's a few years old, I could still see a night and day difference on how it looked as opposed to the console version. I mean........it's not even fair.

Almost picked this up over the holidays...Just can't get into Batman. If it was X-Men, though...all over it.

My biggest complaint about console gaming is that pc has so many more badass games to hold you over till a new release is on pc lol

I'm no batman fanatic either but AA is awesome. It doesn't have a cartoonish feel if that's your concern. It's pretty cheap now. Definitely worth a buy. I don't think you'd regret it

Yeah I keep my fps playing on console too

Dunno why, just a preference. Combination of lesi, comfort with controller, lack of hackers/modders etc.

I've seriously considered a PC but I have neither the time to build it nor play it.

Bought and elgato to capture video and since have played maybe a total of 1 1/2 since Friday. Just think I'd be wasting $$

Yea. PC gaming and development is way more community driven than console. You get some great stuff out of the community like mods that enhance already fun games.

Look at these cool arse mods

And that's just a small collection of them
