Consoles are cheap watered down PC's

In other news...

Because there are plenty of great games on consoles you will never play on PC. I am mostly a PC gamer, but graphics aren't everything, I been playing starcraft recently again and its still a great game, graphics aren't a reason.Diviniuz

[QUOTE="Diviniuz"][QUOTE="Batttlefield3"] I'm not just talking about about graphics. I'll let the the PC (Highest amount of AAAe's) do the talking.Batttlefield3

Meh.. The only PC game that worth a look is any Heroes of might and magic from 3DO

Meh, I own consoles and a gaming PC, and I really couldn't care less about these stupid elitist arguments.

The consoles get the good games, and fun with friends too. While PCs have their games, its mostly shooters, strategy, and mmos. its worth it, but id be missing too many great games without my ps3.NYrockinlegend

PC's are expensive consoles.Next-Gen-Tec

You people forget that a pc isn't just meant for gaming, hell I'm compiling a random SVN release, then again most of you don't do anything special so a console is a pc to you.

Meh, I'm looking to sell my 360 as I just dont use it. Still PC's are used for other things other than gaming.

Just a graphics whore, nothing to see here people.

Come back when it's the games that matter, not the graphics. Consoles AND PC all get great games.

There is a number of PS3 games that will never be on a PC but the 360 games could all be released on the PC.

The Wii is not a cheap watered down PC, it's a cheap (yet overpriced) watered down console.Deathtransit

dude, i'm not taking a side in this, but PCs aren't cheap and people aren't buying. Actual desktop PC sales decreased 23% last year, thats horrible. More people are buying Netbooks, Cheap Laptops than Desktops, which usually excel at games. Esspcecially if OnLive takes off, expect Netbook sales to go through the roof more so. I read some where Netbook sales are going to hit 35 million this year. 35 million Netbooks.

Laptops and Netbooks are selling much more than PCs, PCs can be nice gaming macines for $700-$800 yes, but the general consumer isn't interested in that at all. They are expensive. In this economic downturn they are, esspecially when i know people who can't afford to fil up their tank anymore a PC is too much. Not saying a console isn't either. My brother has had every Playstation every, and for some reason is only interested in a PS3 (big GT fan) even though i tell him he'd be happy with a 360 for half the price, but he keeps waiting on PS3 to be in the $200 territory, and i don't think it ever will be honestly. He still doesn't have one. I let him borrow my PS3. General consumers need something more to sell them on something expensive. the Marginal utility for traditional gaming consoles with simply better graphics and big gaming PCs is dropping, why else would 360 and PS3 sales be so, meh?

Wii excels sales wise coz its something new, its convincing the consumer all over again. It isn't selling off the traditional games consoles pitchs, not selling for graphics, or tech, or multimedia features, just for its cool new way to play games like Wii sports.

HD consoles and PCs need to introduce something new to increase sales, something that increases how much people are willing to pay for a item.

Wow your smart. Almost smarter then this...

Consoles are cheap, watered down PCs I can afford. And I don't really care about graphics, to be honest.

Yes they most definitely are. However everyone already knows this...

we all know this and i dont care ive never experienced pc gaming and i probably wont but that doesnt bother really im happy playing halo cod4 fifa ufc etc on my 360 with my friends

Yeah I've always asked myself why consolites think that 46 inch 1080p HDTV's are free... Seems to me that when you add the price of the TV/monitor to both costs, PC's end up being way cheaper.

i now dub thee use your gift wiselyshadow_hosi

This made me laugh.
