      A configurable controller lets people play games meant for a mouse and keyboard a lot better, like TF2.

      There just hasn’t been political/economic will to do it so far because most PC gamers have a mouse and keyboard setup anyway, and consoles have historically satiated the TV gamers.

        I wonder how much of this is driven by aging gamers like myself who want to recline on a sofa in front of their wall-sized TV with surround sound and play anything they like.

          The demand for that has always existed. Consoles just keep getting worse as PCs become more powerful and affordable. And because Microsoft is run by incompetent morons.

            “Consoles keep getting worse?”

            You’re being dishonest.
