As previously mentioned, as far as shooters go the PC is a totally different world from any console, especially when you consider things like mods and the sheer versatility of the mouse and keyboard.

Generally speaking a PC shooter has to be something really unique anymore to be even considered awesome, it's really nothing more than saturation (we've been bombarded with generic/run of the mill/semi-good FPS since Rise of the Triad), which will happen on consoles eventually.

I know it's only .1%, but think about it in terms of what gamers are getting compared to what they have. If you have a console with 100 FPS you're bound to be a lot more discerning and critical than if you only have 2 or 3. You just know the genre better and can judge it against other shooters.

A good example of this is Halo 2 for the PC, it essentially bombed, but not because of graphics or GFW (rofl): the bulk of the complaints were the pacing, level design, weapons, generic world, and multiplayer layout. It's not that it's bad on its own or as a console shooter, but when you have 1,000 FPS to review a month it really doesn't stack up or stand out beyond a score of average.

As far RE4 on PC, yes it sucked standard but you're not stuck with the scheme. There's player made mods that add mouse control and make it a ton better.

As far as console controls being better debate, the second I see someone on a console do a 180 wrist flick headshot/rocket juggle while strafe jumping I'll change my mind

(also Metroid Prime 3 controls are incredible, best console controls ever--so far)

I think the two versions are so similar that none of this matters, but because I dislike leo-j so much...

"runs better":

"better textures" (if these are cut off, right click and view the full image):

I have Firefox, so I just drag them to a new tab.

It seems the PS3 version has blurrier backgrounds, but the 360 version has blurrier foregrounds (the hands and weapons). Otherwise, the textures and details are too close to matter, other than for fanboys (for both sides).

What I really don't understand is how leo-j isn't banned, reason number 6381 being that he tries to pass of false information as fact: "First off, ps3 game runs at native 1080p(no matter what gamespot says)."
At this point I can't think of any reason why he's still around other than him posting ten thousand times a day is good for the site's ad revenue.
