Xbox live has a monthly subscription. I would only play sc2 on the consoles if it had something more to offer, but seeing as that is probally not the case. My answer is no. Sc1 on N64 was a fail, Liquid_Adun I'm pretty positive the patch that Sony released a while back only blocked counterfit Sony controllers. There are still lots of third-party controllers on the market. FragFX is basically a PS3 mouse that you can use with any game, and since there are youtube videos of people playing Black Ops with the FragFX posted in the last couple days I'm pretty sure it still works  Unreal Tournament 3 on the PS3 also works with any mouse/keyboard. | ||

Kinect makes me think of Ender's game where he was controlling the army and occasionally controlling individual units in space. That could be interesting and work for a space battle game. Basically you and your friends (maybe a 3v3 game) control an army and give instructions and are able to control individual ships as well to perform certain techniques. | ||

You can't look at the massive popularity of Halo and then COD and say playing FPS on a console is a joke. The world has spoken, and while I agree with you cause my FPS experience was UT and CS on PC, I too think FPS are better on computer but what we thinking doesn't mean a damn. The people I know that play FPS in real life all do it on console and all say they would take the controller over mouse/keyboard anyday. So we're not in the position to judge outside our genre which is clearly RTS for PC. I'd get sc2 for ps3 if I could play on b.net like everyone else. That wouldn't happen though thus making sc2 on a console worthless. | ||

Ya I use a non-sony ps2 > usb converter for an old hori fightstick I have. Adun is incorrect. | ||

As for the topic itself.. it could work. But I'm not sure how popular it would be. SC2 is a very PC-ish game. I think that the people who would mostly be interested in something like this already have it on PC, or have a PC and aren't really aware that it exists. | ||

Computer games also look better because they have better hardwares; although graphics shouldn't have much of a difference from computers to consoles. | ||

.............Mouse movement is actually the same as 2 keypad movement from xbox360. how do I know this? because I play FPS moving the game around with controller easier than with the mouse[I used to controller] .....Console is actually better than most people PC. Xbox 200$ ps3 300$ able to play on big ass TV screen 52 inch. While if you want to build a PC to play SC2, you'll look at way over 300$ price point. If you want to play sc2 on a big ass tv screen 52 inch, you'll need to spend extra $ for the graphic card. Over all Console is really a good investment for gaming. Those PC nerd will quote me for this so stop reading from here please > | ||

BTW read the OP people! He said WITH MOUSE KEYBOARD on the console. All these ppl pointing out the interface problems have their own interface problems because their ability to read and apply logical thinking his severely stunted. I played a good amount of halo wars and it was fun, and ppl were pretty competitive. Why wouldn't bringing more ppl into starcraft be a good thing? Isn't that what every big caster in sc2 is trying to do? They are constantly explaining things for noobs on the gsl, arn't they? I think for many ppl who simply can't or won't invest in a beefy up to date cpu to run sc2, a console kit w/ keyboard mouse included (or an (xbox or ps adapter to allow you to use your own gaming hardware) would be a great idea. Be open minded people. They had shadowrun cross play on vista and xbox, worked out pretty good imo. | ||

The reason why many people would go to such lengths such as playing Cod and Halo on their PS3 or Xbox live (with a bloody controller that is) is because it provides better visual qualities 10 times better than that of a pc. I might be exaggerating when i say 10 times but the fact of the matter is a pc can't emulate a ps3 or xbox live compatible game which is proof enough that pc is not up to par with the latest consoles. You actualy do know almost nothing about actual PCs and Consoles do you? Most consolegames would run easy on a pc. Go "Emulate" a System somewhere. Try to emulate windows on a console. Actual Console do have almost the same architecture as a PC has but with very low ram slow processors and slow graficscards. ....this is not the place to discuss this but seriously you live under a rock your informations are like 5 years old....PCs evolved Consoles didnt. I have my Xbox hooked up to my PC monitor and i played those named games on my PC and Console and i can tell you the pc version looks far far better but only because of resolution antialiasing and filtering. | ||
