you know whats funny about these threads, PC elitists like to shove this crap in peoples faces and yet the specs and performance of each the 360 and PS3 is comparible to a gaming PC in 2005. So what does this guy have to say to people with pc's from those years?? i mean really my PC in 2005 couldn't run mass effect or even COD 4 even. Its true you get what you pay for but its not rational to argue or boast your epeen when most people are fine with 30-60 frames and a modest resolution. But yeah fail thread is fail.

Whats funny is that some were playing those games on 2005/2006 based Pc better then the console versions.
For example Myself, I had a Sempron 3300, 1.5gb of DDR(both from 2005), and a 7600GS in 2006 and was able to play CoD 4 all on high settings at 1280x1024, which totally made the console versions look like crap, the console versions dont even run the game all on high settings and runs it at 1024x600....
And ME 1 the min requirements are Operating System: Windows XP or Vista

Processor:
2.4+GHZ Intel or 2.0+GHZ AMD

Memory: 1 Gigabyte Ram (XP) 2 Gigabyte Ram (Vista)

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 6 series(6800GT or better)
ATI 1300XT or better (X1550, X1600 Pro and HD2400 are below minimum system requirements
then Recomended to play the game on high better then the console versions
Operating System: Windows XP or Vista

Processor: 2.6+GHZ Intel or 2.4+GHZ AMD

Memory: 2 Gigabyte Ram Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX or higher.
ATI X1800 XL series or higher

Hard Drive Space: 12 Gigabytes (better quality out of the box then 360 version which used compression)

What is this thread about? My 90$ GTX260 can run Black Ops 1920x1200 with 16x AA and full setting @ 85 FPS stable. We already know consoles are ancient hardware and for the poor uneducated people.

Rest easy knowing that your comment is completely ignorant..

If you ignore the last bit "poor uneducated people" Gauloisess is correct.

Why ignore it? It's pretty clear that's how PC gamers see console gamers.

Same for me, but with an 8600gt. That 8600 is still able to play any multiplat that I have tried with it. Even plays New Vegas on high settings =/

I have no problem with consoles, I just see PC as the ultimate version of gaming. Why play on a console with 5 year old tech when you can play with the best technology has to offer? Its like watching a movie on an old tv with basic speakers, but its nothing compared to a 50" 1080p with 7.1 surround sound and blue ray.

Its not a pointless thread. I think it points out the huge gap between the PC and consoles that is getting ridiculous. Next generation consoles are not going to be out for years yet, which is going to widen the gap even further. To be quite honest I am getting sick and tired of consoles dragging down the games I play on my PC. How bout you keep your exclusives and we will keep ours mmmk thanks.

the PS3 and 360 are several years old, whereas many PC's are very new. OF COURSE PC would look better.

Um... the PS3 is only 4 years old and the 360 5 years old... then in late 2006 The 8800GTX showed up as a force to be reckoned with. So you dont need the newest and best to outclass the consoles todays budget gaming video cards can out pace the console gpu's.

The very low end AMD 6000 series video cards seem to be around the power of a console.

Something like a 6370.

and do you think that the ps3 and 360 used the latest stuff that came out like a month before they were released? both consoles took several years to complete. technology in them could never be cutting-edge. and still, the card you mentioned and games like crysis only prove the original point that stuff that gets released later = looks better.

BUT some people are fine with an old tv with old programing and mono sound. If you seen and heard my setup you would pissss your pants. BUT 9 time out of 10 I dont use it...WHY?...Cause its just over kill for the most part.

Sure I love great visuals but that does not make a game great...never has...never will. AND no matter what you try and debate PCs for the most part cost more and have more issues with running games and blurays. Its just fact bro..Dont freak out...im building a new pc in a couple months "feb" to be precise and cant wait.

You can grab all kinds of older budget cards that out perform the console graphics abilities. Such as a GT 240 or 9800GT or even a ATI 4670.

Typical..... opminzation can only go so far... a 7800GTX can only be as fast as a 7800GTX not a 8800GTX see?, and they knew what they had to work with when they designed the hardware for the consoles. Plus the fact thst the console's gpu's are based off of Pc gpu chipsets from 2004/2005 The PS3 has the RSX which *IS* a gimped Geforce 7800 gpu. And the 360 gpu is faster then the RSX , but cant use it fully ethier because of the lack of memory and memory bus speed. Many games barely look any better from one game to the next using the same engines over and over again and the ones that push the consoles tend to have all kinds of drawbacks. Framerate issues, poor draw distances, things cut out, low quality textures, sub HD resolutions etc....

Nope I was just using your logic.

If PC Oblivion modded looks ugly then by your logic so do all console games because Oblivion Modded looks better than them all.

NVIDIA 8800GTX was released a few days head of Sony's PS3...NVIDIA did a good job on stealing the thunder from STI's "CELL".
