Do you prefer Console or PC gaming?

I prefer consoles, PC gamingis to complicated for me.

PC gaming all the way.

Prefer PC. Enjoy both.

PC. Much more economically viable and overall satisfying, especially when you learn to take the hardware/software problems with the "double the trouble, twice the fun" attitude.

Console gaming is my absolute favorite.

I game on both, but I prefer PC Gaming.

Console gaming gets the slight edge for me in the fact that third person games, split screen, and more can be done better.

[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"][QUOTE="GamerX2311"] PC that runs new games - what, $900? not for the best parts, but a pretty good one. Console = $300 for a 360 with 2 games? I don't get it. If you mean prices of games, it's $10 difference new, but console games have more special offers when new, and eventually they all go so far down- pc games typically disappear before they reach $10 unless they're classics.

I can't believe how much these digital download places are monopolizing the minds of pc gamers. These aren't good deals people, they're just in front of your eyes.

Anyway, I quit pc gaming after I couldn't play BFME2 with my brother due to problems. I just wanted something simple, but I had to work mountains around it.

Consoles. Used to love PC, but if you lose that love for playing with hardware, it's soon to follow.lowe0

Both. You're right, it is the games.

Really?

This has 22 games in a single package. Buying all these games indivdually would be $259.81

However, since it's a package, it's less than half that price. You're telling me that isn't a good deal?!

I enjoy both equally, I can't choose between both of them because I play on both of them daily.

Well i feel that pc gaming has become less relevantlate 90s and early 2000s were the golden age of pc for me . These days i find that there is just less fud on consoles . Pc still have advantages i like however i cant see how a high end pc would be worth the money at this rate .

I dont like windows that much . its unsafe and buggy and slow . once you had much time with linux and osx windows yes even 7 look lame . If ms let devs use open GL then everyone could play . Open gl is better then dx . Pc gaming would be better on linux faster and over 100$ cheaper .

[QUOTE="Mograine"] Your comparison is utterly void. You are taking as example a years old machine sold at a loss against a newly built rig with latest tech. Buying a lot of games that 10$ difference gets much, much wider, and you are not counting Steam deals where the difference is even wider.farrell2k

In my experience it's just the oppsite. I tend to get tons of good deals off Steam and Direct2drive. I cant recall the last game I bought at full price for the PC.. Dragon Age Collectors edition for $45 is probably the closest. Over the last month I've bought games like STALKER Clear Sky, Mirros Edge, Kings bounty 2, Burnout Paradise (Including all the DLC) all for $5-$10.

Where are you buying your cheap console games? I'm not questioning that you do, I just never see deals like that. The occational Platinum game for $20 and the used games at GameStop for $30-40, but not down into the $10 range, so I'd love to hear where you're getting yours.

[QUOTE="farrell2k"][QUOTE="GamerX2311"] But the 360 still will play something like Metro 2033 and it'll look 99% like the pc version, save the resolution (which isn't that big of a deal anyway- no dev creates textures that large anyway). A $400 pc won't make that game look as good as the 360 version. Of course this is fact, but we like to pretend, ay?

I agree that it's highly unlikely he's averaging 50 fps on high with crysis (I have a fairly similar rig as him) but I do agree that with that kind of rig you already see a noticable upgrade in graphics if you compare them to the console counterparts.

So saying it "destroys" is maybe a little bit exaggerated but it's more than just "better".

:? What? That's less than a console, care to elaborate?

PC. I hate having to switch disks to play games.Dick_Derringer

I enjoy console game way more then PC, even though I did have fun with WoW for a good year or so. After all my friends quit WoW, I went back to console gaming. Only PC games I'm waiting for is Starcraft 2 & Diablo 3. If Microsoft makes another LINKS game, I would get that as well.
