To the pc elitist games like rts and fps cannot ever be duplicated on consoles because of the inherent flaw in said machines control schemes, (though this has been proven wrong with games such as Herzog Zwei and Pikmin representing the rts genre and the Wii remote showing promise for fps control).

Call me a pc elitist if you want, but RTS will never be duplicated on consoles. So developers should even try.

I agree with non-gravity.  Just look at Halo Wars.  It's a good game, but it had to be simplified to work on the consoles.

Also, I was playing quake live (free online Quake III for those who don't know), and it reminded me of how the keyboard and mouse controls are superior to consoles.  Do you know why they made halo a meduim to slow speed FPS, because there is no way to make a fast FPS work on console controls.

With my computer, I can hook up an XBOX 360 controller.  That means I have the keyboard and mouse for FPS/RTS/Turn Based strategy and I have a console controller for fighting games and platforming.
