I have it, like it so far. Got it yesterday tho, haven't been playing much.
Blame the Call of Duty: World at War online beta. |

Totally I agree with you!
The EBGames guy who works there told me about NEVER buy FPS games for CONSOLE. Simply respond and reaction time with mouse and keyboard are x10 faster than Console analog stick movement. |

With all of the DRM crap Ubisoft is throwing in, I would rather spend two hours on the phone with a Bell rep at one of their India call centers than buy this game. |

Forget the Xbox 360 version. Keyboard and mouse is MUCH better. Faster and more accurate (You'll be proud of yourself to frag without the computer helping you  ) |

I've got it for the 360, although i've been busy doing the single player campaign.
My one big gripe is, driving through the jungle at night in a jeep, I end up getting stuck and shit on rocks and whatnot.
It's damn hard to see, it makes me wish that vehicles had a 3rd person view.
"FPS simply don't measure up on consoles."
And yes, while it is true(sometimes)... PC's lose out in two places:
The constant required upgrades in video cards, and they don't have Xbox live or achievements/gamerscore.
Not that GS matters much in life, but at least it gives me something to show for all of the hours I've given to the pixel gods |

My 8800GT has been holding strong for a year now and there' still no games that aren't playable on it.
Also, better and better vid cards are needed because the graphics are constantly getting better and better. Id much rather drop $250 on a new video card than $600 on a new PlayStation'4' |

It's like comparing apple to oranges. =P $250 for a single pc component is a lot. Usually an upgrade in video card means the cpu, ram, power supply, motherboard needs upgrading too. |

You can upgrade your video card, and you don't have Xbox live or achievements/gamerscore. |

The DRM is stupid, hacker and cracker will get around it anyhow. Nothing is impossible.

component selection is key to current and future use of any PC. Pick the right parts from the start and you can use them for many many years, upgrading individual parts only.
PC's are also multi-use. You can do alot with a PC that you can't with a console, like, posting on a forum.  |

Got it D/L and ready on Steam..but i'm trying my very best not to open it until I finish Fable II (on the 360)...happens every year this time, get a nasty backlog of new games. If I open one before I finish, I'll never get back to the original game.
This strategy has yet to work though, as I just can't help it |
