Exact same here, except for the last two weeks or so I've had the joy of playing on a full HD projector (also, you've not posted on boards until you've posted at 150 inches).
To each their own of course, but mice and keyboards are way too much of a pain in the hole - far too rigid and formal for my liking.0 -

Depends on what the game is designed/optomised for I think.
I play on my couch too and sports games need a pad but you HAVE to use a mouse and key for RTS and I prefer those on Arkham lime games too.
I have the couch set up for easy keyboard and mouse though0 -

This is true, but the only one of them I play is Civ (ah when the screen takes up your whole wall for Civ... f*** you tiny UI! ). I have a cheapo wireless mouse & keyboard that it works fine for, and have been planning on the same for Warhammer Total War) but they're easier to play on in terms of scrolling the mouse of the sofa and having the keyboard on the lap (it's 6mm wide x 27cm long so nice and compact). I do completely get why people use mouse/keyboard, especially those that go back to the original Doom, Quake, etc whenever I see on a game online that other players are mostly on that I just assume I'm going to get slaughtered, but it's just not my thing personally. I prefer to passively play and really get most focused on immersion in storyline and the world of the games (so really have a bias to the likes of The Witcher).
Though having been out of games for nearly a decade until last year when I built a SFF HTPC/gaming PC, from doing a lot of googling on recommended games, looking for mods, how to use things like the x64 program to make a PS4 controller work with most games etc it's good to see that there doesn't seem to be much animosity between controller and keyboard/mouse players which I have a somewhat vague recollection of. Really a bizarre one that was!
On that, having been out of games for so long I've a tonne of catching up to do... I went and bought Arkham Knight which I kicked off last night, as well as Mass Effect 1-3, Bioshock Infinite, and Far Cry 3 & 4... any recommendations for what to get on when I'm done with Arkham Knight? I'm thinking of holding off on Bioshock for a good while since it looks like the best of the bunch and I'd rather build up to it. Learned my lesson making The Witcher the first game I played on the new setup.
