More or less. But a few key things still distinguish them. The mains one being controls and limited functionality, which is a direct result of controls.

Wait for the day when they offer video card upgrades for consoles.

The Expansion Pak allows the random access memory (RAM) of the Nintendo 64 console to increase from 4 MB (megabytes) to 8 MB of contiguous main memory.[8] With the help of an included key, the Expansion Pak fits into the slot that is below a removable panel on the top of the N64 console. Game developers can take advantage of the increased memory in several ways, including making games that are more visually appealing.[9] The add-on was released in 1999
Already been done.

Fuck no. Keyboard and mouse is and will always be the main reason.
I foresee a day when a good keyboard and mouse option will be available for consoles.
Keyboard and mouse is one of many reasons for getting a computer. It certainly isn't the main reason.

I will be getting an XIM3 mouse & keyboard adapter for my Xbox 360. So I'll have the lower-end graphics, less players per mutliplayer match, and generally more retarded player base, but I'll be getting the whole thing $500 cheaper than if I got a computer. $500 is worth the experience but I can't afford it.

XIM3 enabled me to get a console. I suck at controllers (compared to what I used to pull off with a M&K.)

I sucked at controllers when I switched back too. Even tried one of those mouse controller combos, which sucked. It's just getting used to it again is all. Its not as quick and accurate as a mouse keyboard combo, but since everyone is using them it evens out.

It's the BF3 thread. We're talking about what platform we'll play BF3 on, and what controllers/keyboards. I see no problem here.

- They sucked because they were bots.
- I'll stick to my m&k, they can keep their lousy controllers. We'll see which is best.

So have you played with an XIM3 before?  Is it worth the money in your opinion?

Jesus fucking christ, I wish people wouldn't open their arsehole and shit on the keyboard and think it's an acceptable way to post. If you don't know what you're talking about, don't post as if you do. Do some research first, or at least ask questions, instead of posting absolute garbage and thinking you're safeguarded byt a weak as fuck 'afaik'.

And that's fine. You don't know you're missing anything because you've never had it before I guess. But if I sat you down infront of my 2233RZ (Samsung monitor that does 120Hz) on a game like CS:S or CoD4 with the FPS at 120 (well, 125 for CoD, but that's a different story) you'd change your mind pretty sharpish.

I never notice FPS unless it gets super low. Maybe it's just because I'm not an asshole like Finray though.

This is so pathetic...I watched about a minute of it and couldn't go any longer.  Gamer "culture" and "pro" console gamers that take themselves seriously make me laugh.

You on the XIM forums?   I've been XIM'ing for over a year now.  Helped me bridge the gap to BF3 so I saved a ton of money on m new PC build.

While the XIM was totally awesome and made the console playable for me it still doesn't hold up to PC's feel (that's why I'm back).

It still didn't feel right? Could you expand on that thought a little? What I don't like about console gaming is it feels sluggish and unresonpsive. On the PC I was all about quick snaps onto target for some semi auto firing and mostly on target. Console gaming now with the controller is all about spraying at my skill level.

Well I'll switch back too when I can afford it.

I feel like I'm rowing your old boat.

I know that weird FragFX mouse controller thing I had, had at least a half-second response time, made it totally useless.
