I still don't understand how an FPS game can have such high rating on a console unless you own its keyboard and mouse.
Don't be mistaken i respect Bungie since there Mac days but don't ask me to play an FPS with a gamepad.
Sony knew what a gaming console means from the beguining, Microsoft is starting to understand, IMO i prefer having a console which has many games rated above 8 than having one which survival depends solely on one or two games that rate above 9.
Of course all the above is my POV.

If you say, "dont ask me to play an FPS with a gamepad", I would agree with you if its a PS3 gamepad, which is horrible for FPS games, since the dual joysticks are placed in the most retarded positions. The Microsoft controller is made perfectly for FPS with teh joysticks places one higher than another. And once you get used to it is quite intuitive.

Btw, I used to be a counterstrike feind. I was very good at it, and understand why some people would think an FPS can't be played on a console with a game pad, but thats just not true.
