For what it's worth, Half-Life 2 showed up in a marketing survey on a list of soon to be released Xbox 360 games. This port pretty much maxed out the original Xbox's capabilities. Isn't it about time big bro got a shot?[Thanks Andy]

3. Hope it's not filled with frame rate issues and bugs like the Xbox version had...that game was horrible in frame rate..atleast now it will look nice if confirmed.

6. Erik, just because you only use a KB&M at your computer doesn't mean others cannot be accomodated. For instance, they could include a feature to filter servers such that KB&M-only or gamepad-only games exist.
I would hope that they completely revise Counter-Strike with this as well.

7. I understand the point, GhostDoggy. But the fact of the matter is this complaint hasn't stopped since Halo 1. Its time to give it a rest. If people were so hip to the idea of mouse/keyboard home consoles, the Phantom wouldn't have vanished like, well, a phantom. Not that that's the only reason.
Consider this as well. Why in the world would Microsoft want to compete with themselves. You seem to forget their more successful console: Windows. If people coukd play PC games on their home consoles the same way, they might just start buying Macs.

8. good point Erik, but i think MS wants to squeeze even more from its base.

9. You mean the same exact game that was released last year but with slightly better graphics.
Yeah that seems fair.

10. They are not going to do M/K on 360: http://gamerscoreblog.com/team/archive/2006/05/30/535087.aspx#535112
There's too many reasons not to, and none in favor. Live with it.

1. That would be fine but please Microsoft, let us use a mouse and keyboard, even a proprietary one would be fine, I can't stand the thought of playing my precious CS and HL without them. *enters fetal position*
