Video Game Console Poll

oh, okay.
yeah, I've never gotten into those.

But playing something like Halo or GTA online sounds like a blast.
Not sure if that's considered the same thing or not.

Halo or GTA can only handle up to 64 players at a time. MMO’s can handle thousands.

My Wii has been collecting dust for the past 6 months... I had to quit playing Half-Life on my PC last year because I wasn't getting any work done. I almost broke down and bought HL Orange box for Christmas, but decided to settle for the Wii games instead.

All I have to say, is that this whole discusson really depends on what type of games you like to play. Personally, I really don't like 3rd person type games (like MGS and even GTA to a certain extent). I am a PC gamer, first person shooter lover all the way. HL and CS are the greatest games of all time. For me, the console died when the old school platform games went away. That said, for console, driving and fighting games are all I can really get into. I've been playing Tekken 5: Dark Ressurection and I am loving it. I have been forcing myself to like GTA4, but that won't stop me from saying the controls and game play make me supereffingaggrevated. Why didn't they just make it first person or at least have a first person toggle with the ability to attach a keyboard and mouse? (Speaking of, can you attach a keyboard and mouse to the USB port on the PS3????).

The real problem I have with PC gaming is all the hacking, and all the handicaps (someone with a $15,000 PC vs someone with a $1500 PC). They NEED to make a console that you can go online with, and that works flawlessly with a keyboard and mouse, so FPS games can break through into the console realm, and level the playing field. I really don't understand how ANYONE can play a game like COD4 with a freaking joystick.
