Itâs not always about mouse and keyboard versus controllers; sometime the choice to play on PC or console comes down to a question of community. Letâs help commenter Daemon_Gildas figure out how to play Borderlands 2 in todayâs Speak Up on Kotaku.
Okay, fellow gamers, I need some advice!
Iâve always been fond of playing games with Controllers, as opposed to Keyboard and Mouse, and thereâs no way youâre going to convince me otherwise, so leave that out of the equation.
Should I purchase Borderlands 2 for the Xbox 360 or the PC?
I have a pretty decent gaming rig now, although I would be surprised if it can handle Maxed graphic-setting without some hiccups. The 360, on the other hand, seems to be showing its age a bit these days, and Iâm not particularly fond of Xbox Live anymore (ever since the new UI update, the things have just been a mess).
Thing is, Iâve never actually taken the plunge to play PC games over Consoles. Sure, I play all of Blizzardâs games, but itâs more in spite of the fact theyâre on PC, not because of it. As well, Iâm horrible when it actually comes to maintaining PCâs, not even knowing when or if to download drivers unless I run into a technical issue, and even then I get fed-up with the process pretty quickly.
As well, whatâs the PC Borderlands community like? I played Borderlands 1 on the 360, and it was a pretty mixed-bag. Is that the same of the PC version, or is it a little more positive?
