Some games were made for PC in my opinion though, RTSes for example, but I also prefer console gaming.

Strategy games in general should never be played on console, as you really do need a mouse and keyboard for them, and in my personal opinion games like Fallout also are best on PC, but that may just be nostalgia from old fallout.

Don't know about FPSes though on PC, I've played a lot of FPSes on consoles, I never had an awesome enough computer to run FPSes well, except for like Doom and Quake.

The game style of the past two Fallouts are much different than the originals. Yes, 1, 2, and Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel wouldn't be great on a console but 3 and New Vegas are seemingly built for console use with PC being secondary.

Seems like the PC is secondary in just about every game nowadays.

Except for the few made for PC games from Blizzard and etc.

I take it you've never heard of Civilisation, Total War, Europa Universalis, Minecraft, The Sims, Football Manager, Half Life, Diablo, Counter Strike, Command and Conquer.........


All games made for PC, with new versions being released regularly, by companies that mainly target the PC market.

he did mention blizzard, which creates diablo.

that aside you have a point. Civ is fantastic, but ive heard the port to a console (i forget which console) isnt as good as teh pc version.

in general i prefer console gaming, especially for things like zelda, which ive played on an emulator. for that matter, i think id prefer Diablo on a console (or maybe just on a non-laptop computer).

Blasphemy! You shalt use the name the other 6 or so billion of us on this earth do. After all, unlike 'American Football' it is actually predominantly played with you feet.


I'm also not a fan of sports games, but it is immensely successful.

Isn't the British equivalent rugby?

No. Utterly different games, and rugby diverged from football long before American football did the same. Also, better and played in the US by some people.

So I've decided that my Roosevelt character is going to go down the game path of playing all three storyline factions off of one another and taking over the Mojave himself. It was that or just side with the New California Republic but the NCR doesn't provide enough upward mobility for someone as ambitious as Teddy.

I also have him running around in a sheriff's duster and sheriff's hat. The only exception to this is when I need to pass a close Speech check and he wears a grimy business suit. I'm also probably going to murder Mortimer for his fancy tophat when I get to Vegas. T.R. doesn't suffer fools or cannibals.
