thsoundman sends in a blog post from Rahul Sood, CTO of HP's gaming business, who claims there was once a project in development at Microsoft to let Xbox users compete against PC users playing the same game. According to Sood, the project was killed because the console players kept getting destroyed by their PC counterparts. He wrote, "Those of us who have been in the gaming business for over a decade know the real deal. You simply don't get the same level of detail or control as you do with a PC over a console. It's a real shame that Microsoft killed this — because had they kept it alive it might have actually increased the desire of game developers and gamers alike to continue developing and playing rich experiences on the PC, which would trickle down to the console as it has in the past."
Sounds like it could've been a bit of fun, but isn't it easier to use hacks on PC than consoles which would mean that the PC gamers would have quite an advantage if they decided to try and hack?
Also a mouse seems to be better than analog sticks to aim at people's heads.

Yeah, would have been very cool. It is the controlls that make it easier on pc though. Console players would have been aware of what they were up against I'm sure though.
