Oh england. The country famous for you needing to have an ID for a nerf gun :) . I think you guys might pay too much attention to the "moms against <insert here>" groups.. Have you seen that advert from the moms against replica firearms where the kids are running around with airsoft guns, and they kill each other, and the mom voice claims airsoft guns can fire real bullets? It made me lol.

Nope, I agree with you 100%. I actually hate playing games on consoles....they are a waist of money, if you ask me. :) The only thing they are good for is Madden NFL and if you have a large group of people over and they all want to play at the same time.....but then again, isn't that what LAN parties are for?

Granted, you sort of have to plan for a LAN party....with a counsil you can be spontainious

FYI: PC graphics blow away Counsil

I think you can get the same performance from a xbox a much lower price than a computer. This is because the games designed for xbox don't have to scale to different processors, OSs, graphics cards, etc.... That aside, I absolutely love the rumble on the xbox controllers, games just arent the same without it.

i always turn vibration off, it's a nice feature but it eats up the battery a lot quicker.

I just have a tiny TV, so I sit close enough I can leave it plugged in to the charger. You can get the cable and battery for a couple bucks on DX...

I like playing it on PC because you can get all kinds of custom maps and mods, which you have to pay for on xbox, not to mention xbox live subscriptions.

But one problem with computer play, which is a problem with ALL online computer games is cheating. Sure, there is cheatin on console games, but not nearly as bad as computer games....with computer games they can patch the game to stop a trainer or hack, and someone will program a new one within a week or two......it's a horrible problem thats almost impossible to stop with online computer games.

i get enraged by cheaters and glitchers...drives me crazy

with console games it's mostly limited to people exploiting in-game glitches and not altering the game itself...which is usually patched very quickly (one of the perks of paying for the service)

This is true that you can get an Xbox at a cheaper price than a PC....however, These Days in America, a PC is almost an "necessity" in every house hold, where as a gaming consil is just a "want". When you already have a computer in your house, why not take advantage of it's gaming capabilities.

Realisticly, the people who buy Gaming counsils are the ones who are waisting their money or spending the extra dollar.

My friends and I will sometimes have glitching/hacking competitions in the first halo on our PCs. They're great fun :) but we always change back for real multiplayer. But XBL cheaters are REALLY annoying, I've only ever seen 1. He was noclipping with god mode on... On his xbox. It was a bad game.

That's where finding a good server comes into play.....find a good server, and you will never see these problems.

Plus I think it's fun totally anialating the people who cheat.

Yes thanks - it arrived a while ago. I must have forgotten to PM you. I can't play single player using it, buy I'm using a modded .exe file, so its fine.

And thanks for the link, my dad is in the city tomorrow, so he can hopefully get some from maplin
