I was wondering for those of you that have both or have tried both versions of the game, what version has easier to play/smoother gameplay/less clunky controls?

I have heard that the computer controls are a bit more hard to use than the 360, and that it was obviously a game built for the 360.

-via gameinformer

Any help?

I've played a bit on the 360, and I found it to be inferior in everything but controls.

If your computer's good enough, you'll probably find it the same, and if you're a computer veteran, (such as myself), you'll find the controls to be fine.

Most people however, will find the controls of a 360 easier, because they're all on that small control. However, a computer's mouse/keyboard controls allow greater accuracy for only a small amount of concentration/memorization/keyboarding skill.

My opinion is thus:

A. The only games built for a console alone, are those that the creators were too stupid to make for computer.

B. The only games built for a computer alone, are RTS, because despite what everyone says, to play something like Age of Empires 2, (My personal Favorite of RTS), you'll need the accuracy and multitasking ability of a mouse.

C. I hate Sports Games.

That is also one reason why Oblivion got it rating switched to M. Stupid nude mod.

Ah yes, so true.

Damned ESRB and their stupid "we're going to raise the rating because somebody made a mature mod without Bethesda's consent."

I hate ESRB.

They're alright, but that was a pretty dumb decision.

OK thanks everyone. biggrin

I was just playing on my friends 360 and it seemed easier to control than it would for computer.

But I am being a markman in the game, so mouse would be a bit easier....
