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.

If Operation Genesis is anything like Theme Hospital,then it will be one hell of an amazing game.Theme Hospital was a breakthrough to the simulator type game genre.JP:Operation Genesis is the Jurassic Park game that should have been,and now,thankfully,is.I have high prospects for this game and shall be reading reviews,looking at clips and renting this title.This game may hopefully fall into the new 20 pounds price category.This game has good graphics (from what I have seen so far)and could go a long way.Also it has mini games,I can't wait to play it.

Operation Genesis is awesome. Build a park, get it running smoothly with different breeds of dinosaurs... then sedate a Carcharodontosaurus and drop it by the Park Entrance.

Priceless!!

Oh I concur, but surely you must agree that real time strategy games such as Roller Coaster Tycoon and Age Of Mythology (for example) have so much more scope, depth and are, indeed, a lot more fun to play on a PC.

It's all down to opinion Maverick, a lot of people say the controls for 1st person shooters on consoles are rubbish compared to a keyboard and mouse combo.

Myself I can't stand keyboard and mouse, I find it clunky and much prefer using the Cube pad.
