I'm playing Fable on my new laptop. I bought Fable about three years ago but my old laptop wasn't powerful enough to run it properly so i never played it and completely forgot about it. I only just found it again tonight so i decided to try it out on my new laptop and it works fine. I've been wanting to play it ever since it came out so i'm really happy i'm finally getting round to it even though the third game is just out, but hey, its never too late

Got my first level prestige on Black Ops and I think I might be done with that now. Also playing the Sly Cooper Trilogy.

Whats the difference between playing on a console and pc? If anything id say the console was easier- its what theyre designed for. PCs need constant ruddy updates and then other things wont run!

I would say for shooters and stuff it's easier to point and click on a mouse than to use an analog knob or directional pad on a console controller.

I don't know that I've actually played at all since that post, so it looks like I was right, it didn't hold my attention long at all!

As HJ says, I just find it easier to use the mouse and keyboard for this type of first-person game, and I also find it easier to traverse the inventory and such with a mouse pointer.

My computer is a couple of years old - I think I built it at the start of 2009 - and I've never had an issue running any game I've bought between then and now. And trust me, it wasn't that high-spec then and it definitely isn't now.

I grew up playing PC games - though I did have a Sega Master System and a SNES during the nineties, it wasn't until I got my first PC that I really got into gaming. So it's only natural that I'd be more comfortable on the PC. I know it's a console-driven maket these days, but there's still a few of us cavemen who still shop in the PC section of the gaming store. Or, increasingly, on Steam...

The main thing I like about the PC as a gaming platform as opposed to the console is the fact that a lot of computer games like the Elder Scrolls series, NeverWinter Nights and more recently Dragon Age all come with all the tools that are needed for players to create modifications and new adventures for the game. What this does is it makes those game last much longer because you can always find new things to do with it from the gaming community.

I like the easy of use the console offers but I would rather learn a bit about the computer and play my games there, I do own the original xbox but I only bought it because someone bought me the game Morrowind for it one christmas so I bought an xbox so I could check it out. Right away I found out Morrowind had a modding community and then purchased the game from Steam for my PC...

Still on GT5, very addictive! Am online with it too but not sure how you find friends (PS3)

[InfinitySquared]

Sword of the Stars. Nothing beats Dreadnoughts armed to the teeth with cutting beams and antimatter cannons!

[Cayal]

I've never heard of that game.
