How come the easy way to play FPS game (PC) is considered skill, but playing the more difficult way isn't? I'm not going to sit here and say one is better than the other.. but that just doesn't make sense. I have a lot more respect for people who can tear people up on console in FPS games.. it's harder to do. People usually play PC because it's considered "easy" to control. I've played both plenty and am good at both. I tend to do a little better on PC but have more pride in my console skill.
Yeah but with PC LAN parties (and the right game of course), you can put just about everyone into the same game instance at the same time (think 32vs32 in Call of Duty 4). With console parties, you are mostly limited to groups of four (and that's only if the game even supports local multiplayer which some don't).
Not necessarily. I used to play Halo 2 with 5-7 other people, on two Xboxes and two TVs. You wouldn't get screenwatched by half the players, anyway.And that only applies to games where the location of the other players matter. In most of Wii Sports [Resort] and Mario Kart, screenwatching doesn't help.

Buried you for failing to understand that it is just a comic and not actually reality.

Actually you can pirate FFXI, but you still have to pay for an actual account...

You've obviously never been to a smallish LAN party with friends. Probably because you don't have any.

That must rack up a f**king huge electricity bill.

Just wish you could filter voices by age. Children's voices are like nails on a chalkboard.
