    Meh. Don't like the 360. Too many cons vs pros when it comes to the 360 vs pc. Add on the fact that the controller is clunky and the fact that the thing still won't talk to the router even after three years of owning the thing..It's easier to get it for PC. Besides, a mouse for a FPS is much more intuitive than a controller.

    I never got into PC gaming. Then again, I'd have to purchase a new computer in order to game with it. And then I couldn't play split screen with my other half. Since I value my time with my partner moreso than user managability of PC, it doesn't bother me. I have more fun goofing around with him than I would playing alone in my office.

    To each their own, for sure. If it was just about gaming by myself, I could probably appreciate it. Gaming with my other half? It's too much fun sitting on the couch beside him and bantering back and forth, haha.

    Haha i definetly see your point here. My bro does online gaming. I have big hands so the xbox controller feels good for them. I cant do PS3, controller feels way too awkward and tiny in my hands. I cant do PC gaming bc im not coordinated enough for that many buttons and stuff. I guess im just too used to the 360 lol.

    Man, the 360 users outweigh the PC . . . and you can game on a PC with your spouse. Just look at how many couples play games like World of Warcraft together, and probably now play guild wars 2 together. Back when I was dating a girl that gamed, we'd just hop on WoW together when we wanted to game, or we did Borderlands all the way through the expansions, and then we started playing call of duty till she rage quit the relationship . . . none the less. It can be done, just requires two good PC :-)

    Haha. See my PC is a desktop that's hooked up to all my art hardware in my room. Corded printer, tablet, speaker set-up, keyboard. And there's no room for another person to haul up a table in my room and sit down.

    Good in theory, but with what equipment we have right now and what we'd have to change... It's just a bit much to tweak around. Our limited space makes it even harder.

    Rage quit the relationship? Sorry to hear that, although I did chuckle at the phrase. Describes perfectly how a lot of relationships end.

    We play Call of Duty on the couch. Although, I wanted to play MW2 last night and there's no split screen. I joked about setting up our spare xbox in the spare bedroom so we could game. That didn't go over too well, haha. So we just took turns hauling and back-seat-driving the gameplay. "On your left! No your other left! Put your claymore out. Ohhh that wasn't a good spot"

    Black Ops 2 should bring back Split Screen online, as Did MW3. so that's exciting! And Yes, rage quitting the relationship is a very true statement in every sense. Not that it bothers me, I soon after started dating my best friend, and we've been together since. However, she's not a gamer, but loves to watch TV while I game, so we still manage to use it as a way to spend time together.

    Split screen is horrible. Unless you have a super huge tv, it's impossible to see anything. Not to mention, it takes the challenge out of finding the person since you can just look at the other screen.

    Or you could just plug your 360 controller into your computer.

    Nope. I'm just not a PC gamer :P Plus we only play on the same team. We don't typically PvP either. If you're going from full screen to split screen, yep, it's a difference. I've only ever done split screen with my other half for certain games (Black Ops and Borderlands), so really, I'm not missing out, haha.
