Xbox One May Be Getting Mouse Support

[Vlad Rose]

Broken game? How about Mortal Kombat X? Or Batman Arkham Knight?

PCs are far from always greener. apophis_dd stated that "Except that it's not being developed for a single architecture. It's being developed for two, three, four different platforms, unless the developer is too lazy and makes their game a console-specific exclusive." This is still much easier than multiple architectures for one platform.

Write a game for a Nvidia 980, it might not work on the 780; much less an AMD equivalent. Does the game need 4 dedicated cores? I guess Pentium and i3 users are out in the cold. 8 gigs of RAM or more needed? Not all PCs have that and studder as a result. It's the PC's greatest strength and biggest disadvantage- flexibility.

But as for adjusting the sensitivity on a gamepad maxed out to match the speed of a mouse, you lose precision big time. A mouse will be faster and/or more precise at the same time vs. any gamepad out there; and probably will be anytime in the near future. It's why RTS games do not translate well to console.

I always had the mindset that if they added keyboard & mouse to the console then it basically becomes a computer. Albeit, a closed shitty one. Just buy/build a real one ffs.

PCs don't have the first party games that the consoles get, that's why I like consoles.

So you get Bloodborne and then two dozen really shitty, broken, or underwhelming games. Totally worth it.

lets see here...

uncharted
uncharted 2
uncharted 3
little big planet
disgaea 3
disgaea 4
till recently valkyria chronicles
bayonetta
demon souls
dark souls till recently too
mgs 4
enslaved for a while too
gran trismo

now i want to go over to the 360,

forza 4
lost odyssey
saints row
red dead redemption

and those are just the ones i have in my room for me to see, there are a ton more that are fantastic games that will never make their way to the pc.

you want to go with the wiiu ps4 and xbone... right now only the wiiu is worth it due to its exclusives, the bone and ps4 still have some catch up work to do.

anything worth mentioning from the newest gen? you know, the one that's almost 2 years old now?

well lets see here.
the forza series, i don't know which ones are bone exclusive.
ps4 there is bloodborne and if you rent it that 18whatever game that's 3 hours
nintendo you have a mario kart, you got the new mario games, splatoon and bayonetta 2, and i heard good things about hyrule warriors.

have to be honest, i dont get consoles till a few years after they are out just due to their not being worthwhile games in the first few years and this cycle i pretty much don't even pay attention to it, but that has to say something that i know more nintendo exclusive games than any other systems.

Could it not imply that cross platform would be possible? Equal playing fields.....
