PC > CONSOLES

You know it's true

I'm so upset that my new mac can't play my favorite PC games. :(

The only counter-argument is the price for current PCs and probably the innumerable fuck-ups you can get if your PC's got issues with the graphics/speed of the game.

I agree Tacofreak.

But this is mainly because I spent like $900 building my current computer.

The more money you dish out to play, the more quality and fun you'll get in return.

I like my sexbox, but I haven't had the money or opportunity to build a computer yet. I've started, but I'm not near finished.

Should be worth it though.

with a $75 upgrade a PC can blow the PS3 and the XB360 out on graphics, of course that's an example... you cant simply "upgrade" the PS2 or the original XB... whereas a PC can be upgraded with a lot less $ than a new console... so PCs win

Yes.

Yes indeeeeeed.

PCs are a lot better yes.

But, we can't all afford cool gaming PCs with super specs :'(

I don't know about you guys, but PC games here are twice as cheap than console games . So if you buy lots of games it's more worth it to buy a PC.

I prefer console gaming because it's a lot more simple. I can just buy a game and pop it in with no worries of my console being unable to handle it. Plus all my friends play on consoles so we can all chat.

People who think console gaming is better deserve to have their heads beat in with a DVD-drive. The computer sitting on my desk right now is $350 in parts, and plays Crysis on medium.

also, you could always buy the wireless controllers and a sensor receiver (at least with the XB360) and you technically could play games with those controllers on a computer...
something that's great for FPS type of games.

PC is great.

I bought Star Wars Battlefront 2 new for PC for $20 (this is 2005 of course). It was $40 used on Xbox.

fps games suck ass with controllers

I prefer the PC strictly cause I can do more on it than I can on a console.

PCs are better if you're a hardcore gamer, but if you're like me, and get a new game maybe once a month and play for a few weeks, it's much more worth your money to just get a console. I like my 360, though I do miss all my old PC games.

Hahah, yeah.

People all say "Gahhh you need a $1700 PC to play CS:S on Medium settings" When it's really quite the opposite.

if you're such a part-time gamer, then why bother playing at all? i mean aside of the obvious entertainment factor or boredom, why? games are meant to be played until:
A) beaten B) thoroughly beaten (100% complete) or C) you borrowed it.
aside of that a $300 console (XB360 i.e.) would collect dust.
that was the reason i sold mine.

how do you beat a multiplayer game such as tf2

Oh, I do all three. I'm just not such a hardcore gamer that I need to invest in a PC

I play enough to warrant keeping it.
