I bought DA for 360 because I'm currently using a roughly six year old IBM business laptop. I was hoping for at least a solid approximation of the PC experience. Can't say I got one, and the sad part is it really doesn't have to be this way. Microsoft and Sony could very easily integrate USB mouse/keyboard functionality, allowing you the same level of play/camera control that makes the PC version so vastly superior.
Honestly, I don' t understand why this hasn't happened. Of the last chunk of gamers desperately clinging to the dying PC platform, a large percentage are hung up on the lack of mouse/keyboard control for consoles. If Sony/MS simply embraced these devices, they'd have a whole new customer base - and I wouldn't feel so stupid for trying to shoe-horn a great RPG onto a platform that simply doesn't support it.
I actually made the shift from consoles to the PC during the PSX/N64 era, and I HATED using the mouse and keyboard for controls. "Where is my vastly easier to use controller with its buttons and d-pad?!!" Now I've done a complete 180, and while old school nintendo games still play great, modern console games and controllers are like a baffling hideous chimeara of joysticks, dpads, trigger buttons, litlte rows of 10 tiny buttons....
i would say with the exception of games like Dragon Age, which need a top-down strategical view and the functionality of a mouse, there isn't much call at all for going beyond the standard controllers of modern consoles.
