CoD was good when they offered PC support. I.e. dedicated servers, extensive config files and mod tools. We know that is not going to happen and they are catering to the dumbed down xbox audience. It's not going to be good, i really don't need to test every new CoD for 100h to know that.

Lol fair enough.
I wish there was a new world war game, and not a strategy like CoH.

This made my morning ^_^
On a side note though I would like to see the end result graphically just to see how far they've improved.

So what games do you play that are not console ports?
Sorry but I find this sort of statement ridiculous since most games now are ported from the consoles.
Off the top of my head Battlefield 3, 4, Far Cry 3, Titanfall, COD Games, Tomb Raider and there are more that I cannot think of at the moment.
Yes there are Indie devs and possibly Crytek who generally don't port from the console, but most big developers all port from either the Xbox 360 or PS3.

Technically most games are not ports, Most of the time they come out first on the PC and then weeks later or sometimes days later on the consoles.
Some come months later and sometimes the other way around also.
Doing a detailed world takes a lot more time than doing exploding death sticks and faces and they don't want to invest a lot of time into anything else as they need to get these games out as fast as possible to make more money money money.

I think I played these a good year or more before they were on console.

Oh yeah there is that lol.
Steam alone has been around for as long as half life 2 has , so that's 10 years, I can't remember what year they started chucking stuff over onto consoles?
They are good games but out of the so called "AAA" games that get massive budgets and massive amounts, of advertising for them nearly all of them are all ported from the consoles.
The games that are multi platform though typically all of them are made for the lowest spec'd machine, and then ported to the higher spec'd machines.
Although I hate it because they are never properly optimised for the hardware, it does seem to make sense seeing as most games sell more on the Xbox than on the PC and Playstation.
