Haha those germans didnt stand a chance :P

Yeah im kinda peeved that the PC has better controls and more features such as character dialouge. Also you can manually postion and rotate your turret on the PC.

And they didn't even learn from their mistakes either

Fox 6 · 03-10-2008, 09:36 PM

So i guess we should come to a choice as to which night we should TF2 it up a notch, GT style.

Bond · 03-10-2008, 10:38 PM

I agree. I should be able to join next week as well.

Better is only relative to the platform you are playing on. The gameplay of FPS's on both platforms are only shadows of one another, with even game design changing depending on the tools used.

PC FPS - Plays on the inherent speed available to a moue and keyboard set-up. They tend to be more "fast twitch" games keying more on reaction time and sense memory than stretegy.

Console FPS - PLays more on strategy than reaction time, as the controller has not true analogue to the spped of the human hand, like a mouse is, or the ability to switch weapons with one stroke. Therefore the design of the game and how you play is built for a slower, and IMO, more realistic experience. Thats why I think story based FPS games tend to do so well on consoles, because the gameplay lends itself to that type of storytelling.

In the end, saying that PC FPS controls are better than console FPS conrols is like saying an apple has better apple flavor than an orange. Of course it does, because and orange is not an apple.

So i guess we should throw out an idea for a tf2 night then figure out at which time. Is wednesday next week good for everyone?

DeathsHand · 03-13-2008, 10:10 PM

Oh look I'm not on the list yet...

*points to signature*

Sikudhani...

I'll probably never really get into online 360 gaming, but I hear having me on your friends list brings you luck.

Well guess we also have to take time difference into account. I am 3 hrs ahead of you and Swan so I don't know if you folks prefer early afternoons and stuff which would be closer to evening for me.

Bond · 03-17-2008, 04:44 PM

Let's have our TF2 night tomorrow or Wednesday.

Fox 6 · 03-17-2008, 04:56 PM

well with only the 3 people having posted its hard to know when.....

id prefer wednesday i guess
around 5 or 6 pacific time?

Swan · 03-17-2008, 05:04 PM

Wait are you referring to yourself in the 3rd person?

And great games today. Lots of fun.

Fox 6 · 03-17-2008, 08:00 PM

Agreed. We need to play together more often.
