I'm not saying people shouldn't prefer it over PC gaming as everyone has their own preferences. I'm just saying that there's no real argument over which is superior. The only downside to PC gaming at the minute is that a lot of games are made specifically for consoles so aren't properly optimized for PC gaming.

We're getting to the stage now where you don't need a top of the range PC for the newest games anymore as games haven't really got that much more demanding recently - Hell, my computer is over 2 years old now but handles any game I play fine.

I digress anyway - I'm gonna have to reinstall GTIV to check this out.
But that's what really ultimately baffles me, why do we need to form an argument over which is better in the first place if personal preference holds it's own water to people who make their own decisions?. Trying to tally up which one has the most plusses and the one with the most downsides can sometimes be negated by someone elses personal opinion but even then you'd only get people scratching their heads and thinking "Why is this person so stupid for not going with my logic?".

For example my own mother prefers going to google to search for whatever she wants but I've explained to her it would be easier and quicker for her to type into google chrome's address bar since it acts as part of google's search engine but she claims she's fine with going all the way to google's home page to search from there and I'm perfectly fine with that and felt no need to deny her own opinion and didn't even feel the need to tell her "well my method is technically superior so there's no arguing that mother".

I'm that guy that doesn't want to make someone feel stupid just because they chose to do something different and put my foot down telling them that it's pointless in the choices they made because one method is superior to the other.

Just thought I'd put that out there because even though the PC has it's factual evidence does not mean it's the end all to be all to everyone and not everyone knows how to build their own PC's let alone know a good PC when they see one as my family and some friends can attest to that.

I'm not trying to win anything over here I just want to let you know my side and let others know that we don't always have to keep dragging facts into gaming if we end up losing what gaming is really about, the having fun part not the technical part.

I must have some conflicting mod. When I go into flight mode, I find myself rocketing across the sky on a moped.
But really.....isn't that better? Search your feelings, you know it to be true. Iron Man deploying a rocket moped, flying across the sky, fighting for justice!

OT: I wonder if they added the function to access the police database with the mod. If not, that would've been really cool. Just press a button, and the database shows up in HUD, and then Tony is off to stop a crime.

I had already seen this in the steam feed a few month ago but its good that it is still getting buzz. It would be nice if they just let you play the regular GTA 4 campaign in the armor so you would never have to experience the shitty driving again.

The mod, somewhat confusingly titled Iron Man IV, features several varieties of the Iron Man armored suit, from previous models of Tony Stark's armor to other famous robots like War Machine and Stan Lee.
Oh my god! Does it come with a Lee voice pack?!
