Well, not really. This forum is generally busier than OT, so I come here when things get a bit quiet over there. I'm always concerned about moderations though. I seem to get them more often on this forum. :P

WHY in god's name would he WANT to play BF2 at those settings. 50 frames per second? eugh.

Oh and btw, for a little more than 500 bucks you can build a pc superior to the 360 and PS3. Cheers :)

Np, you're right anyway. A 500 dollar system won't outperform a PS3. A 610 dollar one will.

if youv noticed you can do so much more with the pc with a $600 cad pc coud outpreform the 360. with an extra $200 can you can surf the net, shop, play movies, download movies, download music legally, more multimedia, do school work, MAKE SOMETHING OF YOUR LIFE and play game plus much more

How many more times are people going to keep beating a dead horse? We all know the Wii is a graphical joke. If you're not playing your Wii because you'd rather play *sigh* Battlefield, then you better get your money back from the Wii. You obviously had no idea why you bought one in the first place.

Your brother got ripped off. For $500 I just bought an entire pc that includes a 2.0gig dual core amd, 2 gigs ram, and two 7900gs's in sli mode, not to mention all the other amenities, I hope your brother atleast got an awesome monitor.

I would hope so since that PC costs double the price of a Wii. Since everybody has a TV you don't need to include a in the price of the Wii. Also I bet that is a crap monior.

One more thing my $400 dollar xbox 360 can display 1920x1080 @ 60FPS or 30 depending on the game.

Still one more thing my friends PS3 that was $600 has the sam output as the 360. So what was your point agian.

I would hope so since that PC costs double the price of a Wii. Since everybody has a TV you don't need to include a in the price of the Wii. Also I bet that is a crap monior.

One more thing my $400 dollar xbox 360 can display 1920x1080 @ 60FPS or 30 depending on the game.

Still one more thing my friends PS3 that was $600 has the sam output as the 360. So what was your point agian.

Thats fine by me, we can just hook the PC up to the TV. Problem solved.

Good thing my $500 pc also displays in 1080p on my 42" 1080p Sharp, not to mention it runs at a steady 90fps+...which resulted in my selling my 360 and ps3.
