360 by far. Computer seems to lag more and the controls were more of a headache then they are on the 360.

Controls are the same on a PC as on a 360 or PS2 if you use a USB adaptor for your gamepad of choice. The PC version is fully customizable in that respect, and sports better graphics and less visual lag than the 360 version if you have a decent gaming rig.

I'd have to say PC...why?

Because I can't stand to play an FPS with analog joypads for controls....if 360 had a mouse and keyboard setup... I'd be sold!!

Not everyone can afford a PC that has enough power to rival a 360...but I still like them anyway

I prefer both system. playing on both 50/50. each of them have a pros and cons.
360 with and 5.1 sound its awsome, when Diabolos throwing his dark sphere thingie BP (lvl1 snm here) its sounds like a jet fly trough my room.

but on PC i prefer controller too, i can navigate more easily with controller than keyboard (i droped the mouse like 2 days after started playing FFXI)

The 360 already supports a keyboard and with this you can use a mouse and keyboard

Though I've not played before on a 360, I can tell you my PC is plenty good enough for me to play FF w/o any non-server caused lag. So it's gonna be PC for me.

I'm with you, I tried playing on the ps2 once, and trying to play with a controller was impossible for me. Then again, I started on the PC so obviously that's most familiar to me. Plus, imho, no matter how good a console is, PC always wins out because I can at least upgrade my PC every year or so...

Re: Do you prefer computer or 360?

Thw general term PC is like asking wether you like to drive a car or a truck.
I have the game installed on my newest PC which is pretty much a Corvette.
I have it installed on a slightly older machine and it drives like a farm tractor.
I don't think you can beat a high level PC and it's worth every penny if you game a couple hours a day.

Personally I prefer the PC version for the higher resolution for the graphics and also the ability to .dat edit etc.

Wow nice! Does this mean you play games like Gears of War with a mouse and keyboard like counter-strike? :D

Unfortunately not. Unless the game is specifically coded to use that accessory, it won't get recognized by the game, so no, you can't play Gears of War with a mouse as far as I know.

By the by, back in the North American beta I was a PS2 FFXI user, and I had a full controller + keyboard + mouse setup for PS2 FFXI. I never touched the mouse, but it was supported, so you should definitely be able to use a mouse on the Xbox360 version too.

After playing Resistance on PS3 and Gears of War on 360 with a gamepad, I wanted to throw the controller at the TV....which would give me the same effect as having a Wii

Re: Do you prefer computer or 360?

After playing the beta on 360 id say the pc is probably better unless you have a spare usb keyboard and some where good to place. Macros do not work on the 360 pad (too damn complicated )
