Consoles are way better imo.  They are way more user-friendly, and with integrated communities like live, they are more fun.  They are way better for FPS, (It actually takes skill as oppossed to point and click) Co-op orientated games, Rythm games, (try hooking up Rock Band to your computer and playing with 4 people) and pretty much every other genre is just more fun with consoles.  Plus Pc's are more expensive, and their graphics for the most part are about the same as consoles.

PC is so better for RTS's, and MMO's (WOW!!!) but thats about it 

Post 'o Fail.

 

FPS better on consoles? Really? Point and click? The PC shooters are the only ones that take actual skill. By the time Master Chief turns around I can go take a piss. And don't give me that whole "strategy" crap either. Go play an RTS if you are dying for a stretegy. As it stands consoles shooters are extremely simple and easy.

 

I concede only party games (not lan parties) and platformers to consoles. Everythign else is better on the PC.

You've obviously never played a FPS on a console before.  So whats so skillfull about point and clicking?

The fact that the target moves about 3 times faster, while you yourself also moves 3 times faster. What's so skillful about moving the reticule slowly over someone who is basically crawling across the screen?

That only applies to Team Fortress (at least from what i've seen)  And team fortress is on consoles too so that logic fails.

And having played Counter Strike and Halo 3 before, I can easily say they move about the same speed (I think counter strike is a little faster)  

You saying stuff like this just backs up my point that you have never played a console FPS...

You do realise that on consoles they have to help you out with auto-aim features in pretty much every FPS due to the inadeaquote nature of the analog sticks. That's real skillful. At least on PC you know that when you pull off that head-shot within the split second of time you have that it's down to your own skill and not down to luck or the auto-aim feature having to help you out.

If everyone is using the same control scheme then you need to be ridiculously quick and actually skillful to compete. When I play on consoles, even on games I rarely play in multiplayer, I tend to do relatively well, relatively quick. On PC, it takes me much longer to become competitive due to the speed, skill and precision of everyone else.
