Console games that Should've got a pc release

And it was actually really fun, for me at least. It's one of the few games for original Xbox that I ever go back to. Sometimes it's nice to kick back on aztec or dust and waste a few players who aren't going to call you a fag.

 

The Warriors, it's one of the few reasons why I still have the original XBOX.

 

futurama the video game

great game a little bit harder than and average game. but addictive none the less.

 

I hate 1.6 on PC because most of the players are total elitests and kick off if you arent fantastic at it immediately.

 

I watched a Lets Play of sewer shark with a buddy, you are a greater man than I

 

Are we talking CS:Zero? Did it have multi-player mode?

 

No, there was an Xbox version of the original Counter-Strike. Honestly, I'd forgotten that Condition Zero ever existed.

 

I wanna buy that conter strike, own some bots lol since Stupid live m$ shutdown xbox servers

 

Yeah, like 7force says, I mean the Xbox version of CS, not Condition Zero or Source or whatever, just plain old CS (1.6 I guess?). I put in an hour or two yesterday, still really good fun. I've got no claim to hardcore gaming credentials to back up this judgement (didn't play the PC version all that much), so YMMV, but it delivers the CS fix for me.

As far as the control goes (pad rather than K&M) it obviously has an impact. The bots have to be crippled in terms of their accuracy to give you a chance. I guess that might bother some people. You can always bump up the difficulty.

 

The second Blazblue.

The first one looks so, SO much better on my (rather old) PC than on the Xbox!

The second one has yet to come out on PC, so I had to get it for the 360. I feel it doesn't look as crisp.

 

Every console exclusive FPS ever. Thumb sticks just aren't as accurate as a mouse!

 

Different strokes. Console FPS games have their own charm if they're designed for it; playing the Timesplitters games would be like shooting fish in a barrel with K&M, but they're great fun single or multiplayer on a console. Likewise, the PC port of Halo felt wrong when I played it, and most of my mates felt the same way.

The games just need to be designed and balanced for a pad in the first place. You wouldn't want to play a 2D platformer with a mouse either.

 

I just can't play FPS games on a controller. It's totally unnatural. FPS are all about twitch accuracy, and for me thumb sticks a terrible substitute for a mouse.

 

I used to be a purist on FPS games - Mouse and Keyboard for me all the way.

But on the 360, it's just SO satisfying, as a tactile response, to fire with the trigger - that I am now a convert.

If it's any consolation, I still really dislike Halo.

 

Digimon World...

 

Same. These days I actually really enjoy playing Doom and Quake with a controller, though - given the choice on the spot I'd rather play the PSX port of Doom or the N64 port of Quake than the PC originals (single-player vanilla unmodded, at least). That's more like "let's make this a challenge" than a statement of preference, though, I guess.
