What's the better system for playing wargames of any sort ya reckon?
What console has the better series of games.

Although PC's and gaming systems that connect to the tv differ quite a bit, almost so much that it becomes unfair to compare, it's gotta be done because this is a war for the supremacy of system.

[EDIT: I vote PC for ease of movement and look functions, and imo better graphics, and split tv screens drive me nuts. Network games rule the earth.]

By war games I'm assuming you mean things like Battlefield 1942/Vietnam, Rainbow 6 etc.?

First person shooters in general, I think, are better suited to the PC. I've tried them on a couple of consoles but the controls didn't feel natural at all. Then again I've been using a keyboard since Commander Keen was the number one game to own so I'm biased.

That's exactly what I mean. And on a tv system like x-box, you look around at a highly unrealistic slow speed whereas if you're cracking round on a pc with a mouse, you can run crazy directions and look anywhere in a second as you would in real life.

PC's can connect to a TV aswell y'know.

FPS are definatly PC's ground, although HALO on the XBox does kick ass.
