why dont you try a different theme and see if you like it?

what a lot of people do is come up with an idea, then they wait for a big company to have the same idea, once the big company starts making alot of money than the little guys say they stole the idea, it happens a lot actually.

if they prove that they designed they're controller before the patent was filed they'll win the case. but can they counter sue for slander?

i agree with the ease of playability and setup, but with a blue toothe keyboard and mouse you can play from across the room, my gaming rig is sitting right next to my 360. and also say what you want about windows (hey dont like it fine.) but with a 19.99 adaptor you can use your 360 controllers on your pc for games, thats how i played fallout 3, and it worked pretty good. and lets not forget that a mere 5 or 6 years ago the PS2 and original XBOX didnt have wireless controllers and really only had maybe 6 ft of cord standard. I personally like playing certain styles of games on the consoles and others on the pc. MMORPGs for example, i like them on the pc, sports games and racing games, i pretty much like on the consoles. games like first person shooters I can play on either. RTS games though i still like on the PC i just think the mouse is more suited for them. of course we'll have to see how endwars voice commands pan out, but for now i would rather play command and conquer on the pc.

I think crysis is a bad exampe. I have a year and a half old laptop that will play farcry 2 and fallout 3, but not crysis, and frankly fallout 3 and farcry 2 look pretty damn good also. I had the same problem on my desktop a few years ago, quake 4 and half life 2 ran awesome, doom 3 ran horribly, the frist 2 games looked just as good but ran smoother, i think some games coding just isnt refined all the way when they are released. A good example is...jeeze i cant remember the name but it was a street racing game. the graphics werent even good and it ran badly, after 4 200mb patches the game ran fine.
