    Default Games you own for both PC and a console

    what games do you have on both PC and a console? (not including roms, duh) a lot of games were released for both, but i don't think many people would get both.

    i have:

    Star wars episode 1 racer- PC and N64
    Quake 3 arena- PC and Dreamcast
    Tom clancy's Ghost recon - PC and Xbox
    i don't think there are any more.

    Half-Life(PC and DC), I prefer the PC version by alot.

    I know the DC version needed a little more polish before it was released, and then it would have been about equal. But as it is, I prefer the PC version for(shorter loading times, better sound(IMO) and no slowdown).

    Unreal Tournament(PC and DC), I prefer the DC version(even though I don't know why)

    The PC version has alot more stuff, but for some reason the DC version is just special to me(plus that add bots code is really cool). And I actually like using the DC controller for this. 0_0

    Morrowind(PC and Xbox), Both great games, but I gotta go with the PC on this(WAY faster load times, slightly better graphics, the modding options, ect).

    That's about it I think, as I mostly game on consoles and I'm not a very big PC user.

    Hmm...quite a list actually:

    King's Quest for PC and SMS
    King's Quest V for PC and NES
    Crusader No Remorse for PC and Saturn. (I like the Saturn version more).

    Wolfenstien 3D for PC and Jaguar (Jaguar version is better...)

    Unreal Tournement for PC and DC. I also like the DC version more. I think the controls work better for some reason.

    Revolt for PC and DC. DC port is better, as it has more cars and tracks over the PC version.

    Spiderman for PC and DC, again the DC version is better to play.

    Beyond Good and Evil for PC and GameCube. Cube version BY FAR is the better since I can actually complete that version without needing some hack to get past the bugs in the PC version that make the PC version unplayable!

    That is about all that I can think of right off hand.

    I gave up PC gaming (not emulation) altogether about four years ago, but still possess these redundancies:

    Doom - PC and Jag
    Wolfenstein 3D - PC and Jag
    Dune II - PC and Genesis (Genny version is called Dune: The Battle For Arrakis - not to be confused with the Sega CD "Dune", which I have for PC only and not Sega)
    Low priority acquisition is to buy Quake II for the N64 as I never finished the PC version. Might as well get Quake while I'm at it. One of these days...

    I also have console versions of these PC games:

    Starflight (Genesis) - actually quite different from the PC version

    Ninja Gaiden II (NES) - never actually played my PC copy

    Castevania (NES) - PC version is OK but definitely inferior

    Doom (32X) - haven't played the 32X version yet

    I think that's all.

    I own both the PC & Xbox versions of Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. I bought it for the PC first but was never able to get it to run smoothly on my computer.

    I can really think of only a few:

    Beyond Good & Evil
    Warcraft II
    XCom: UFO Defense

    I own PC copies of Metal Gear Solid + FF7 / FF8, but didn't see the need to re-buy for PS.

    I have The Secret of Monkey Island for Sega CD and PC, but I think that's it. Unless you count Max Payne for PC and GBA.

    Tiger Woods 2003 (Xbox) and Tiger Woods 2004 (PC).

    Okay, they're not *quite* the same, but that's as close as I get. The PC game is my fave for solo golfing, the console my fave for two or more.
