computer will always be \> console but the frame rate does slow down in the 360 version when you have a ton of shit going on thats a given. The graphics in this game are pretty intense and i think its pushing the limits of what the console can do.

I just wish I could use a mouse and keyboard on the 360. Then I would be happy playing shooters on it.

I can’t believe they don’t make a keyboard/mouse for the 360.

Does this thing work?

That’s what I am waiting for and one that does not emulate thumbstick control…

The computer many potentially look better than the console but nothing beats gaming on a 65" HDTV…

Don’t most console FPS’s use a “lock on” type of system for their controls to make up for the lack of accuracy?

that would get annoying if they made a decent mouse setup for it depending on how sensitive it is.

I can imagine going for a headshot and shooting them in the shoulder or gut or something

I tell you what, no need for “lock on” with Locutus, he is probably the best I have seen using a controller for a FPS…

I don’t think BioShock uses any kind of lock on, but I noticed the reticle seems to be pretty liberal. If you get it anywhere near where you want to shoot it will hit.

I don’t see how thats a blow to sony, everyone knew it would be a 360 exclusive, just a few people found some mention of “consoles: 360/ps3”, in the pc game code.

Too bad it wont come out for the ps3, because you can tell this game has the 360 stretched to it’s limit.

sonys exclusives are winding up, i wouldn’t worry i think both consoles will have great games for a long time to come.
