Ya, it is fun when you use get to use non standard stuff and destroy all the noobs using the controls the system came with.

i sense sarcasm. I play about 1% online console.. cant stand hearing the 10 years olds repeat cuz words over an over.. don't need to hear 4 letter words 90 times in 3 minutes (from a 10 year old or a 25 who acts like he is 10). I use the mouse/keyboard to play any of the FPS that are not on PC's.. but i wont deny i have used it online (bored look up my gamer tag same as here, havent been online in .. ouch months..).. I truly suck with a gamepad.. so bad the easiest levels with consoles auto aim and I still cant win.. but when i can aim naturally (I consider Mouse/keyboard natural) i have no issues.

My point was just that is out there and people do use it. I myslef am impressed MS has resisted a $100 keyboard and $50 mouse addon.. amazing restrain by the MONEY grabbers.

serious question - did you know that you can mute players online so you don't have to hear them?

yes, spend the time to mute 12 of 16 players.. game is over.. most multiplayer games require you to be playing them, not tweeking settings. And once i mute um all, they drop and a new once joins, i rinse and repeat.. it wouldn't be that big a deal, the words are just that, words, nothing i cant deal with. But often its nice to hear the game, where a sound is comming from, as an old quake player it was very important.. and still can be today in games, somebody shouting non stop just ruins it.. so yes, i can mute um, I do know that. I would much more prefer non azz hat games.. and no .. PC gamers do it too, so it wasn't a stab at Consoles if that is what your getting riled up about.

This is why I play with the sound off. Only noobs need sound to win. Look at Tommy, he was a pinball wizard.

or you could just turn the setting on that says "HEAR FRIENDS ONLY DERP DERP DERP" before you even put a game in your tray.
