I tried playing assault cube and quake 3 on my computer and I am a lot worse with that than a controller. I actually hooked my ps3 controller up to my computer and did better.
Well, I know PS3 MP is free, we have all 3 systems here, I was talking about Xbox live, and the fact that you must pay to get map packs on 360 and PS3.

About Mouse and Keyboards, it was very ackward for me at first too, but I say after about 2 weeks of PC gaming, I was acustomed to the controlls. For me it comes down to controll over comfort, and I will take accurate controll over comfort any day. :oops:

Ok back on topic.

PSP GO is PSP Fail. They should lower the price, of the system, and the downloadable games, and they MIGHT turn a proffit, I highly emphasize MIGHT.

Eventually they'll make it where DLC is the only way to buy movies, music, and games. That way you'll always have to pay top dollar and you can't sell it.

I only buy used cds, dvds, and games plus I refuse to pay for DLC, so I guess I'll be screwed.

Pretty much. You will only play half of the game that way!

Absolutely nothing. Its safe in your easily removable hard disk, and in worst case scenario even if you hd is dead (never heard of a case like that), your purchase is logged and linked to your XBL account and you can download it as many times as you want from any console.
