PC or 360

grizzly

Should I get these for the PC or 360?

Left 4 Dead
Fallout 3
Dead Space

I have a decent enough PC (8800GT, 4x2.8MHz, 4gb RAM) for them. What system would you get them for and why?

I have a feeling most will say PC, but I just want to hear the opinions.

Cheers!

Dead space looks more suited to the 360 controller tbh, and possibly Fallout 3 (it's not a standard run and gun FPS, so might end up working better on a pad)

Left 4 dead is definitely one for the mouse+ keyboard combo though!

Bear in mind the corded 360 pad works with XP/Vista PC's (and I'd hazard a guess could be got to work with older/non MS OSes fairly handily).

Unless its a mates around+beers style game I'd usually rather have the PC version tbh...

Won't 360 controllers work on 'Games for Windows'?
That said are Fallout & Dead Space GfW titles?

Thanks, I didn't think of the possibility that the 360 pad might be easier to use.

Will Left 4 Dead come out on Steam the day of release?

left 4 dead is a valve game, it'll be on steam and id be very surprised if you cant pre load a few days before and start playing once it hits midnight in america.
i dont know how multiplayer works on the 360 but with steam groups and friends and all that id say go with the pc.

imo a controller works well with racing\fighting\football games. Everything else is superior with a mouse\keyboard combo so stick to the PC

always pc, except for fighting,driving games for me

L4D - shouldn't need an answer to this.

Fallout 3 - pc.

dead space - pc with controller if you prefer that.

All on PC unless you have friends that have a 360 but not a powerful enough PC to play Co-Op L4D on. Then go with the 360 for that Obv. All the rest are Single Player so you should get them on PC.
