Which games do you think are only good on PC?
Sims games are only good on PC. I tried it on Playstation 2 and it was aweful.

All games.
Just kidding. Other than Sim games and RTS's, I absolutely cannot stand playing first person shooters on a console. Pretty much anything that absolutely requires either the precision and speed of a mouse, or shitload of keys of a keyboard.

RTS and simulation games really need the PC.
RPGs are a lot nicer when you have all the key bindings available to you, but it's hardly essential.
FPSs are better on PC due to the accuracy of the mouse, but I've happily played many a shooter on PS2/3.

I immediately thought of team fortress 2.
Anyone who has ever played it on xbox knows what I mean.

Carmageddon. Anyone who played the console ports will be nodding their head furiously right now.

Medieval 2: Total War with the Kingdoms add-on and King Kong's Stainless Steel mod.
Yes, you've heard it before, yes, you'll hear it again - it is and always will be my #1 PC game.

Pretty much this.
Third person shooters and RPG's work on consoles, and even a couple FPS's too, but I'd that's about the sum of it. For example; Assassins Creed benefits greatly from the controller, as would games like Fable and God of War. Action games generally are great on consoles. Things like Halo and Splinter Cell work on consoles too, but they work equally as well on a PC.
Any 'slight-less-casual' FPS goes better on PC, though, as do all RTS's.
