Well I sold my Xbox 360, and recently got banned from my PSN account(PS3's online account). I have more than enough for a whole gaming pc set, with everything, including the games. But I don't know if I should buy a Xbox 360 again, start over on my PS3 account, or go PC gaming. I got friends saying "This is your only chance to go PC gaming without looking back at wanting to go back to consoles, since you have to start over." Should I? I enjoy MMORPG and FPS definatly. Hows the gaming for pc? Is the social connection great? Is there alot of players? and all those kind of questions, ect... THANKS!

If you enjoy MMORPG's and FPS games the PC is BY FAR the best. PC is personally my favorite system, just unfrotunately doesnt have EVERY good game, hence me owning a PS3 and Wii for their exclusive titles. I say build a PC (way better price to performance ratio), and join steam. You might feel a BIT odd at first, but PC's are better in pretty much every way. The graphics will be better, the controls are better, the online is free and works great, the community as well, there is modding (I don't get into it much though), and yeah.

PC Gaming is great, but don't let it stick you into just 1 platform. It might be the best, but that doesn't mean the others aren't worth your time.

Also agree. But if you can only afford 1, It is a great place to start.

If you do get into PC gaming, may I highly suggest for you to try out Dungeons & Dragons: Eberron Unlimited? Free 2 Play and fun as hell. :)

As far as MMO's go, PC's are certainly the way to go. Plenty of them to choose from, ranging from WoW to EVE Online. Playerbases for them are more than adequate. As far as FPS go, I don't think a console can rival what a PC can do as far as they're concerned. Then again, I am more at ease using a mouse to control my aim than a gamepad. No matter how many times I try to use a gamepad, it always feels awkward and clunky to me to aim.

In the same sense that we don't allow system recommendation threads, this isn't allowed either. You'd be welcome to compare systems and get feedback on what you want to do in System Wars though.
