I also love CS:S because every FPS I've ever bought for a console has sucked. And CS:S doesn't have this constant deathmatch respawn felgercarb like every other online multiplayer fps.

Ya, console FPS's suck, although I want to see what was done to HL2 to put it onto a console...

Oh I don't know... I can handle FPS fine with a controller.

 

[Zink]

But there are fewer controls and you have to use things like Start and Select more.

Yeah, and only games designed for use with the controller in mind translate well. Like Halo, and by hell Gears of War was just a great action game.

 

[Zink]

Yes....Was it? Still haven't played it.

Gears is such a great game the only complaint is that it's too short. Which really it's just as long as Half Life 2 in chapters and general travel and what not without all the back travel.
The system is fantastic and if it'd get a PC translation that'd be great because then they could get more creative with enemy placement. Since you do have a more true 360 x 360 degree reaction plane to deal with. The controller just can't do it sharp enough so games like Halo and Gears are designed with that in mind.
