Mav, although I would like to respect your opinion, its quite hard as its just a simple assumption as you have not tried any strategy games on a console. Its quite uncalled for to call Daveus an idiot, in fact your the idiot, Daveus owns strategies games for his console and in his opinion the controls and gameplay are fine.
So dont go insulting others opinions when yours are hardly justified.

How on earth would you know that? In fact, I have, and it strengthens my conclusion that RTSs and PCs are made to go hand in hand.

I was calling him an idiot because he was going on about the game running perfectly on the Xbox. Of course it bloody will, that's what it's formatted for. He knew what I meant and was evidently 'playing dumb'.

Perhaps they are 'fine', but I was saying that they were worse than PC. That's all. There's no doubting that PC RTSs are always better.

> So dont go insulting others opinions when yours are hardly justified.

That's rather hypocritical.

Yes. I've 'attempted' to play Theme Park World and Age Of Empires II on the PS2. Naturally, their PC counterparts were much more playable and cheaper, too. I've heard the same about Jurassic Park and I KNOW the same about Roller Coaster Tycoon.

But at the end of the day, who gives a damn?

as i said before, i have Operation Genesis and it plays brilliantly on the Xbox. if i wasn't satasfied with the controls or anything i would of taken it back. i believe that all other strategy games'll play the same. period.

different strokes for different folkes? no. you're the only person here who thinks strategy games are better on PC.
