its pretty simple. If you want a Ps3 game that much, buy a Ps3. If you want a 360 game that much, get a gaming PC.

Because every 360 game is on the PC, and the PC version is always better, amirite?

I agree I own a gaming pc, ps3 and xbox 360 but i mainly find myself playing games on my ps3 and i use my pc to play some 360 games This gen there's no point owning more than one console.. Just get PC & PS3 and your set! I'm not even going to mention the Wii, do they even release games on it anymore because I never hear anything hyped for it :S

yes I agree a lot of Xbox36o games share their games on the PC, but not everyone has a good enough PC to run such games contrary to belief. Having an Xbox is cheaper if you can't pony up the cash. More conveniant and easier to use instead of worrying if your graphics card is good enough has the upto date drivers. making sure you have enough ram and a good cpu to get decent framerate because your pc isn't optimised to play the games. I expect some people wil come in here and say 'oh but my PC can run such and such.." so what. not every has a PC to run such and such gaming can be even more enjoable when you don't have to worry about having to upgrade or optimise your PC every year to keep up to get the most out of the latest games. The XBOX360 -hey! it's ready to go just slip the sucker and bang your playing. connect to your tv- have friends come in play some multiplayer or split screen. run on a fairly reliable online service that supports ALL games in one form or another- you know what to expect. "play PS3 exclusive games get a PS3, play cutting edge games play on a cutting edge PC, want to play Xbox360 games with a well known successful consistant online serive, a plentyful library and support of games, ease of play get an Xbox360 it's pretty simple the ease of gaming on consoles is simple. consistant online services, an established library- iceing on the cake.

Being a PC gamer makes you alot less sexually attractive to the opposite sex.

If you are male you can counter this by getting a PSP - this will atleast increase your chance of pulling a soccer mum.

If I hadn't bought this MacBook for college, I may have considered a gaming PC instead of a PS3.

I don't wanna hate. I just can't stand Microsoft. PC have too many bugs, viruses and stuff. I haven't had a single important problem with a Mac in 18 months. I had one every month with a PC. That's not the point...

I agree a great gaming PC would be enough for a gamer, if you're not a fan of some exclusive series (Zelda, Mario, MGS, Resistance, etc...)

Or...I can just get a 360 and play all of the games it doesn't have such as Forza 2, DOA 4, Dead Rising, Ninja Gaiden 2, PGR 3 and 4, Gears of War 2, Halo 3, Lost Odyssey, Crackdown and all of those games that have been ported to and from the PC.

But I have all three consoles anyway and I plan on upgrading my PC early next year so I win. :D

Actually, this is the first generation in a long time that I felt compelled to own more than one console, because if you don't, you are going to miss some great games.

yes, but this thread doesn't change the fact that the attach ratio for Xbox360 is very good, obviously a substantial amount of people buy and play games on the Xbox360.

so this thread doesn't accuratley make sense.

I hear people hear saying Oh I've got a Pc, PS3 and Xbox360 but don't play games on the Xbox360.

ask your self why did you get it? Xbox360 is used to play games..

t's the games which is the best advice for people who can't decide whether to get PS3 or Xbox360.

then you can break it down.

the cost of the console.

the size of the library of games and it's quality of titles

ease of use and consistency of it's online service

the ongoing support for the games

Does it have a big library of games that can satiate your tastes,

My friend was a PC gamer for many years, so rather upgrading his PC, he got an X-box 360, and he's really happy with it. So I guess your point has hit a massive fail that has no weak point.

Kameo, Crackdown, PDZ, Condemned, Forza 3, Banjo N&B, Halo 3, Gears 2, Sports, Fighting etc. and best yet those games that do get ported to PC, Just Wait. :P
