@vlad321  im not disputing those facts, what i was trying to say is that FPSs and RTS and RPGs have all appeared on consoles for years now. Im curious to know what are these "true" PC games that cant be done on the consoles. FPSs is the only thing that i can think of that loses something in the translation from PC 2 consoles because of analogs. but i played DAO didnt have an, played Ruse on PS3, didnt have an issue, played FF11 didnt have an issue. Some people act like the content changes between the different versions. and fighters suck for PC unless you buy a joypad of some kind

The consoels didn't even HAVE a tactical camera in DAO. How can you say it didn't lose anyting? Strategy games lose absolutely everythign as well, hotkeys, quick mouse movements, etc. You have been playing games that have had allt he mechanics that are implemented/improved for console play. Those mechanics are very limited compared to what they are on the PC.

Also I hate to bring it up to you but FF11 controlled terribly with a controller. I mean hell, FF14 was pretty terrible even with a KB/M because it was made for controllers as well. Basically, interfacing with MMORPGs sucks when using a controller. And yes, fighters and platformers do suck on the PC without a controller, just like the above mentioned genres without a KB/M on your console.
