RTSs games are to the PC as the JRPGs are to consoles.
Also, as the MMORPG, is to frustrating playing them in such a limited controller like the gamepad. |

i would not call a game pad limited. game pads have strong points, mouse and keyboard have other strong points.
most sport games and basically every beat em up plays better on a game pads. i cant even remember what was the last beat em up released for pc, vitua fighter or something.
its nice to have 13 or so analog buttons. well it least for the sony pads, got no clue if xbox has digital buttons. |

When I say limited I refer to the number of buttons. So, yes, its extremely limited.

@Tuborg
Street Figher IV was released for the PC and it was awesomely done as well! 
I agree, that some games, play better with specific controllers. |

LOL! what a stupid conversation. I love Renton's analogy. Gamepad has less buttons than a keyboard. Wow! Did you just figure that out?! Some games work better for gamepad and pc with keyboard! Wow another amazing point! Thanks for the pic it really helped me visualize the difference. No really, I wasn't sure there for a little while.  |
