Hmm, looks like I need to make some suggestions as to what my 360-owning buddies should be checking out when they're curious about what to purchase next.

Contrary to what millions of zit faced little boys think about their precious Halo, FPSs and console don't mix well. I'll skip it unless it comes out for PC.

I love how X-Box Live gamers are going to have a cheat called "aim control" or some such thing so that they can compete against PC gamers in FPS games.

Hmm... I think I prefer playing the FPS on the console. Not really sure why. Think it may have to do with the dual joysticks with one for aiminging and one for movement. Just feels much more natural.

To each his own, but there's a reason developers of FPSs for consoles have to "cheat" the player's aim.

I will admit that I prefer the XBox controller over the traditional mouse/keyboard combo. However, if I can replace the mouse w\ a trackball, I'll take that every time.

Yeah. Because the mouse is much more accurate for aiming. I'd bet the opposite would be true in driving games, though.

Driving games on the PC have hardware steering wheel and pedals.

But Guitar Hero has a frikkin guitar, so....
