The only issue I had with a PC game this year was waiting hours for DE3 to decrypt. Everything else has been click, click go.
Consoles have been fine too. Aside from networking issues when I moved house.
All depends on how much tinkering you do before you game. If you play SP and go with stock settings there aren't many more problems when gaming on a PC than a console.

iOS and PC

When was that the selling point? I didn't even know he did the voice. For me it was the awesome cel-shaded art direction and unique combat.
Would rather have this than yet another bald space marine shooter.

a) Fuck yes. The guy sitting next to me on the train to uni yesterday was genuinely enthusiastic about me hammering Bayer Leverkusen 11-3. The tackles are wonderfully meaty - if you come in at someone full speed, it feels like you really fuck them up.
b) The iOS version of Football Manager is pretty weak. That's the only one I've tried, and I felt like deleting it.

Holy: yeah the Telstra people at that number were nice and have even called me back during the day to keep me updated. Telstra are saying it's up to Optus, so during lunch I called Optus and they said nah everything's fine on their end, it's now up to Telstra to flick the switch. I DON'T HAVE TIME TO DEAL WITH THIS SHIT, SIRI FIND ME A GUN
So on a scale of competent to shithouse, how well do you rate the controls for FIFA 12?Salazar said:
I typically avoid what I recognise as 'compromised' control schemes for traditional action video games on iOS, favouring games of a turn-based non-dynamic nature (hence my Football Manager inquiry).

This sounds oddly like Holys internet problems...Gazunta said:

Even then you can run in to strange issues that just don't exist in console gaming.
I can't remember what game it was, but a few years ago I had a game that wouldn't launch at all after I installed it. I checked that my drivers were up to date, same with DirectX and a few other things.
Did some searching online and found some possible leads, but they all came up naught.
Eventually I cam across the solution. For whatever reason, the game only ran if you had the sound settings in Windows set to 16-bit and 48,000Hz. I had speakers and a sound card that supported 24-bit 96,000Hz sound, so I had it set to that. No other games were effected by it, but this one simply would not launch.
So, every time I wanted to play it I had to change my sound settings. That's a PC exclusive!

Custom sound setup. Custom settings required. My mate has issues running his 360 through a sound system with some games not coming through clear.jambo said:
The more things you add into a process the more there is to go wrong. Which is why I just hook up my 360/PS3 to the TV and play SP. That way I only have to worry about the usual bugs that come up from software.

That build sounds familiar. Should be ok.

If there's any doubt as to why you should be on Twitter, seeing Stephen Fry and Steve Martin argue about the peculiarities of the others' version of the English language ought to be enough to remove any doubt.

Pretty goddamn good.
The shooting is pretty well tuned. Swipe up to chip. Swipe down when in the box to fake a shot.
If you drag your finger on the screen, the nearest available player will make that run - or the closest thing to it.
Double tap on the screen for a skill move.
Swipe up on the pass button to play a through ball, or pass into space. Tap for a ground pass. Hold for a lofted pass.
Hold sprint/hassle when defending and your player will automatically chase the one with the ball. Tackles are all slide, unless you just run in and nick it off them or are very close when you tap it.
There is a temptation to spam the sprint button, but the hit your ball-control takes when you try sharp turns with it is pretty severe. You double tap it to push the ball out a few yards when running with it - that's pretty effective with a quality winger.
