Hey Tony, I must admit I do find one or two games easier to control
with a keyboard and mouse. But one of the reasons I prefer consoles is
that they are quicker simpler to use, less things to go wrong, but best
of all it is easier to play with friends and family, then with a PC. I
mean have you seen the size of the Game Cube? It's tiny.
But it all boils down to which Game you want to play, I like Super
Monkey Ball, and that game is, or was only available on the GC.
Sometimes it is easier to have dedicated hardware for doing specific
tasks.
Again off topic, sorry everyone, and there I was not so long ago
complaining of the Poutine talk, darn, I have mentioned the dreaded P
word
Kindest regards
