    generally higher ping/more lag
    imprecise aiming controls/random gunfire
    lower bar for entry/more mouthy kids

    When do the upsides come into play?
    Ok let me start again, i played CoD4 for 100 hours on PC and 25 hours on my 360 and people say that the lag on the consoles are worse but i totally disagree.

    Infact thanks to the matchmaking system i never had a game on the console where any of the players had pings over 80 whereas on the PC i always used to get people with 200-300+ pings come join in and lag the servers out. I think lag wise the consoles reign supreme as generally being better.

    You say imprecise aiming, there isnt really anything imprecise about it, it just takes some getting used to, much like it takes getting used to a mouse and keyboard if you have never used one before. There is nothing on a console that makes it so you can only aim in some places and not others, its exactly like the PC. Random gunfire? what do you mean?

    I agree you get the occasional kid who comes on with his mic, but i think this is a huge generalization, in my whole time playing any console game i think i have only ever heard 2 maybe 3 players actually annoy anyone over the mics, much less than the rate on any pc game where you get constant bickering over the ingame chat or abuse over the mics.


    Im not saying either is better, but both the 360 and the PC have their ups and downs.
