Former Halo Reach nutter here. It's really not that hard. I guess you can get used to anything, but coming from keyboard and mouse it´s a real b***ch

Unless you´re talking about the original Wolfenstein 3D, which I btw play on and off on my Compaq Presario 520 (Windows 3.11), you´re not talking about the real Wolfenstein. -Gaming Guru Extraordinaire

No, I mean the original that came out in 1992. I have a demo of the first eight floors. Don´t have the whole game unfortunately

I used to be freaked out by CyClones and that game isn´t scary at all. I guess it was the whole 3D thing making me feel like I was really being hunted by those aliens. Now however I´ve played Doom 3 and the torch has been passed on. Minecraft scares me....f'in Minecraft...the spiders keep jumping off my roof on to me!!!!

After a while the convenience and comfort of a console with a controller become much easier to deal with than playing with a keyboard/mouse in my opinion. There are obvious downsides like the inability to mod or cheat but for me, gaming is better on console. Partly because there are no compatibility issues and crashes/freezing are extremely rare.
It is also becoming more and more common to require always online or steam for PC games, which is annoying.

I agree 100% there. Online requirements makes me mad!!  But online activation and such for the console isn´t an impossibility either. Maybe the new Xbox or the one after that will force you to be online when playing too This post has been edited by mirocu: Aug 22 2013, 04:14 PM

Looks like for the next 5-6 years consoles will still be free of this annoying requirement in which you never really own your game.

They've backed down on pretty much everything expect you have to buy the kinect,you don't NEED it on and plugged in anymore but they don't sell a XBOX without the kinect which is stupid,because if they put out a 100 dollar less XbOne then there's not much diffrence between it and the PS4

Well, I'm glad they backed down on the other crap though. I personally do not like the idea of putting listening and viewing devices attached to the internet and leaving them running in any room of my house period, the idea that you had to keep them on just so you could clap or speak to them to turn them on makes no sense at all in anyone's house that has children/pets/a spouse/a life. They are going to talk/meow/bark, and the XBox is going to immediately try to figure out what command they just gave. Examples: 1. Dog makes a muffled yip while scratching flea: XBox: "Did you wish to play a game?" Dog hears strange voice coming from bedroom - "WOOF WOOF WOOF!" Household is woken up. 2. Husband to wife: "Come on, baby..." XBox: "Excuse me, did you wish to play a game?" 3. Mother to household: "Shhh. Don't make a sound, I finally got the baby to sleep..." XBox: "IF YOU WISH TO PLAY A GAME, YOU MUST SPEAK LOUDER! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" This post has been edited by mALX: Aug 22 2013, 08:37 PM

Well you don't have to use the kinect,what I mean is they're only going to sell an XBOX/kinect package,which is useless if you don't use the kinect.

They originally had it where it did not shut off with the XBox - one of the huge number of complaints about it was invasion of privacy - Microsoft or hackers (pervs) listening in to your house or watching your kids sleep, etc.
