Respect his opinion. It's perfectly reasonable for someone to be used to a controller more than a keyboard and mouse. And it's also reasonable for someone to not want to have to upgrade their hardware, if they don't know a lot about it.

It's not my opinion, I agree kb/m is the best, but sometimes a controller is necessary, but of course you can use one on the PC. And you really don't have to upgrade often if you build a decent rig...but not everybody wants to build their own PC.

 

That is the key in my opinion.  A person who plays games on a computer should know how to work on a computer.  Plus they need the time to work on it.  I just managed to frag my Windows installation on my computer by trying to install Ubuntu on a non-raid partition while my Windows installation and it's bootloader was on a raid0 partition.  I didn't know that was going to be a problem and have to work on it for a while before I can play games on my computer again.  I am also looking into playing games on Ubuntu.  Wine is free, but it doesn't seem to work very well;  I may have to pay for something.
