    Not all games could have controller support that would work. IL-2 "works" with a controller, but it's awkward. Pretty much and game that was console released has controller support.

    So are EA games going to be exclusive to XBOX now? That'd be a bummer. I wouldn't be able to play Dragon Age 3.

    A large amount of Steam games do have controller support. Mouse is more accurate for me, though. I'm better at shooters with a mouse than I ever was with a controller, and once you get used to the keys, swapping weapons and other things are considerably quicker.

    Nah, I think the Xbox will just have exclusive modes on EA games, like FIFA Ultimate Team mode.

    I didn't know steam had any controller support at all, so this is news to me. I have a few games on there, but my computer can't even handle Portal 1.:sad:

    I thought the Xbox that came out in 2001 was Xbox One?

    Or it's Xbox one to be classy.


    It's because it fuses all entertainment into "one". Like how the Wii is for "U" turn away and buy something better.

    What the actual hell, Microsoft?!
    I just found out that I'll have to pay a fee to play used or rented games.
    Microsoft can take this new system, grease it up, AND SHOVE IT UP THEIR...
    ...Ahem. Sorry.

    Microsoft, it was fun while it lasted, but I think that we should see other people.

    I think you're right here, it seems like the latter. I still think it sounds silly though; perhaps it'll grow on me?

    I honestly don't think I can come to much of an opinion yet though, the current game line-up seems pretty shabby next to the PS4's but then they did say they had 15 exclusives TBA...
    We'll see.

    I think I'll just stick with PC gaming. Also getting the PS4, XBox One just looks... I dunno. Bland

    Yeah, the consoles just look like big black boxes. And that "new" technology they had for CoD Ghosts such as sliding and jumping over barriers has been done years ago, not to mention PC still looks better.
