PS3 is a console and it runs like crap. PC version runs at 60fps (depends on hardware).

PC is not even limited to whatever framerate it's trying to achieve. It will do whatever the hell it want with its hardware. With consoles, you have no choice. 15fps or GTFO.

See, the PC gives you the luxury.

Then that's fine, just play on consoles.

If you love multiplatform games, it's probably worth getting a PC. Those are the same games found on the Xbox 360 and PS3, and the PC version sweeps the floor with them.

[QUOTE="AlexKidd5000"]I have not gamed on a console in 10 years (other then retro consoles), and I've noticed over the years that they have been trying to be more and more like computers. Nowadays, as soon as you buy a new platform, you have to configure tons of settings, and frequently download sometimes massive updates, and have to create user accounts to use certain features. Even handheld systems are like this, like the Vita. Even Nintendo can't escape this trend, you have to download a, what? 10GB or something update on first start up? and you may end up needing an external HDD for the Wii U. I miss the days when you buy a new system, you just pop in a game, and instantly play it, but thats a thing of the past. Makes me feel nostalgic, not to mention old lol This kind of stuff is normal for computers, but less painful. But for consoles, I think it's just a hassle personally. Sounds weird, I know.

They've always been computers. Just computers optimized in software and hardware design for gaming.

Not the most recent of each series. I believe Gears 1, Halo 2, and GH 4 are the most recent on PC.

Well,long gone are the days of plug and play on consoles,now there´s patches,updates and all sorts of thing you´d only associate with the PC,wich is only natural since consoles are trying to imitate the functionality of the PC,sadly though,they offer way less in comparison and most things they´ve been getting are just a hassle,rerlly sad,I miss the old days where consoles were just that,systesm to play games and just focused on that,now they try to do so many things and are always worse than the PC at doing them. :(
