I'd totally agree 99.99% of the time but the 0.01 left over has to go to Halo 1&2.

Then again, one good point about the new consoles.. the PC ports will be better than the crappy ports we have been getting.

Wasn't sure what to vote, so voted that gaming sucks.
I've never owned a console, and don't use my PC for gaming all that much. I'll play through single player games once, and play multiplayer with friends when we get together with our rigs, but I never play online, and often go weeks between playing any games.

consoles are = fully intergated
basically outdated or under powered "PC's" in and non upgradeable package
the consoles are already outdated in terms of what you can get out of a PC
and in a few months they be pushed even futher behind.
Market was and is mainly ment for "children" k-12 though adults play as well...
as thier cheaper then a PC both adluts and teenages can afford them. What
they dont relise is when you turn around they get you on the games.
IMO consoles = to "web TV" box thier to specailzed to be good as a real PC.
In the future when you open a console it will evetually be a PC inside the box.
So tell me whos winning?  (PC) especally when you need only 1 PC and some emmulators and you can have your self a station that plays all atari, nintendo, playstation, xbox etc...

exclusivites they would have 101% on PC if it wasn't thier creation and push
to make and keep market for them to rake in money.

I'm not sure what to vote.
I love my computers,
but get a crate of beers in, steal the kids gamecube and late night Burnout competitions on the big widescreen in the living room are good laugh. I actually managed to get my fiancee pretty hooked on a driving game!
think I'll have to go with all living together in perfect harmony.

Gaming is better on PCs, but console's are good for those less technically gifted, who are obviously not members here.

With all the hoopla surrounding the X-Box 360 I have been mighty tempted to take the plunge and buy one.BUT,then I figure I can take that $500.00 and do a little something or other to one of my gaming rigs.So it's no X-Box for me.I will stick with the tried and true PC!

I saw how much the xbox 360 was going to cost, so I built an AMD 64 fx57
and it was like getting 25% of a xbox killer!

lets look at the arguments
Console
pro's games will work without needing an upgrade
controller is useful for some games
Cons
can't increase the resolution as desired
FPS games suck with controllers
can't be upgraded
PC
pro's
Upgradeability
can change resolution
FPS rocks with a mouse and keyboard
the mouse rocks
Cons
need to uprade
newer games need need new parts
windows activation.
conclusion
the pc still owns that pos console.
Gates sucks!
