yes to bad it looks like just for console
I sneak in my own house.
It's four in the morning
I've had too much to drink
Said i was out with the boys
I creep in my bedroom
I slip into bed,
I know if i wake her,
I'll wake up dead

Not worth buying a cut down PC just for one game.
Besides they would frustrate the hell out of me. Being so limited and not being able to mod the games. Not being able to alt tab and bring up a web page. No second monitor!
Almost every game I enjoy on the PC has some form of mod installed. All i hear on the modding forums are complaints from all the xbox users on how they wish they could do all the cool stuff to their game.
No idea why they are bringing this game out on PS3, Xbox 360 and PS2, but not PC.

Looked very good.
I think I'll play it on the PS3.
Pity its not on the PC, that would be awesome.

i have my monitor next to my gaming telly so i can pull up a webpage at the same time as i play, as for modding?
jedi knight 2 was good when i changed all the stormies to battledroids, other than that it never really interested me
i like to play games, not make them!
seriously, those who think of consoles are n64's, ps1's etc should give them another go. there is so much more to them these days

No. I hate gamepads. With a passion. Besides, if I had the cash for a console, I'd probably blow it first on an upgraded component for my PC.

Thats another good point. Think i'd rather buy a new dual core video card, than a console
Also Toucan. If I wanted to play Sensible soccer, i dont have to wait until someone brings out a compatible with console version, i can play anything made between the 90's and now, right down to almost every arcade game, Amiga, C64 Atari ST, and most old consoles, right on my PC

i'm not saying pc is bad,
both is better
opens up your options
as for the gamepad, i dont mind them.
i do prefer a mouse for fps type games, but they suck for driving or flying

I have playstation pads for my PC. Though I only use them when playing arcade games like tekken or gran turismo, which is rare
Car racing, well I find my wheel doesnt connect well with my desk, so i'm used to using my joystick. I use joystick for flight sims too. Mouse and keyboard for everything else. Couldnt stand playing a shooter, and RPG, Strategy, or sim with a gamepad.

A nice Saitek stick for the flight sims FTW... cost me 20 bucks at Wal-Mart, and it has a nifty twisting handle for aileron rolls. Immelmanns in JtL were a breeze. And for driving sims, a MoMo Force Feedback steering wheel. Add-on components are a big plus for PC's.
Someone once told me you can buy a keyboard and mouse for an X-Box, but I haven't looked into it myself.
