I was planning on building a new pc in a few weeks, but I am not sure if there is even any pc exclusive games in the past 2 years to justify.

My specs:

Geforce 6800gs(AGP)

Pentium 4 3.0ghz

1.5GB ram

Is there really anything that is worth playing that I cant already run?? I dont really play any mmos, but i couldnt imagine one that would be graphics intensive (other than AoC, but hey, epic fail.) Keep in mind I have a 360, and most of the good games out right now for pc are on 360 as well.

What genres do you prefer? We can't help you unless you help us figure out what you prefer.

Usually people know at least 5 titles they want for PC, before even considering PC.

If you don't play a lot of RTS and MMOs online, stick to 360.

yeah it's not worth it until you actually see a few games you really want to play.

and if you wait, you'll be able to get more for your money. don't just buy a new system now for the sake of it.

Coming soon, Empire: Total War, Demigod, and CoH: Tales of Valor will kick your current PC in the balls and leave it their crying and these are two of the better PC games coming out this year. As for the past few years as well. STALKER ShoC and Clear Sky, Crysis, Company of Heroes series, Sins of a Solar Empire, X3: Terran Conflict and quite a few more would push your current system over the edge. Honestly though, unless you're into strategy games, tactical shooters, or MMO's there isn't much of a reason to upgrade.

I would love for Starcraft 3 to come out in December.
