I would have to agree with that fact. I find playing on the computer much more difficult, and not as fun. ANd I am sure there are quite a few people out there like me.

the reason it woudlnt / doesnt (because it is out on pc) get anywhere nearly as much recognition, isnt because its more difficult (which it isnt, its more natrual, people will have this same problem adapting to the revolutions control system as they do a mouse. they're simular) .. its because on pc its greatly overshawdowed by tons of FPS's that are just way beyond it. the stuff halo did that was so new to console users had been done 5 years before on PC.

my point was: because it is on the PC it is more difficult for ME and probably others like me to play because I find the mouse and keyboard configuration less natural to use than a controller which I am used to using. i find my arm and wrist hurting after playing counterstrike for just a little while and sitting at my computer is very uncomfortable, thus the game becomes more difficult for me.
