Thread: EB on consoles

Console games should stay on consoles and PC games should stay on PC.

Otherwise you get Frankenstein type hybrids with lot of porting problems,that are not good enough for neither.

Plus most of the popular games are heavily modded, and that is almost impossible to pull on consoles right now.
Example: just play ES IV: Oblivion(an RPG) on console(it will be Vanilla no choices there) and then do it on PC with just top 10 mods(and you can add infinite number of mods for PC) and see the difference in gameplay , depth, even graphics.It's like Vanilla RTW comparing to EB, meaning light years apart.

Not to mention control problems for RTS and other type of games.Add keyboard and mouse to console and you get E-Machine PC (low cost PC in USA)

"Cross gaming platform" is just poor developers excuse for trying to hide their greed and lack of their effort to make something more in depth today.I would rather see version of TW that can have whole world playable and moddable like Europa Universalis series(even if that means lower graphics) but that is not happening if you place any console in equation.

No offense to anyone, but if Total War Series ever goes to crossgaming platform or anything that touches consoles, i ain't buying it anymore.
