If you have media center on your PC, get a 360... it does some really cool stuff with PCs if you're rockin' media center. I can't live without it now... I use it every day.donalbane

if your talking about sharing and playng media thats on your pc on a console

both the ps3 and the wii can play the media of your pc on them, for the ps3 you need the last firmware and well hmm a psp =p, and for the wii you need to isntall a software called Orb on your pc share some files then log into their website from your wii.

i didnt liked fear or prey as well and as you mentioned Hl2 can blow halo away, as can Call Of Duty,Ut series, BF series, not to mention mod's.

What? COD 2 can't be called a shooter at all, it's a primitive shooting gallery. Halo 2 blow away HL2 in any point, starting from A WAY better AI and so on.

yeah..so only AI matters? Then FEAR annihilates Halo2 I guess :D Everthing is better in HL2 besides AI. Graphics, storyline, level design, variety, music, gameplay...everything is much higher quality in Hl2. Halo2 doesn't even belong in top10 best shooters last gen

wait it just crossed me, wasnt halo about the incredible Multiplayer experience? i dont see how AI matters on here, and yes Master Cheif is a very compeling customized and unique character with amazing background =p much better then that random Half life guy

Random Half-Life guy? Gordon was no random guy. If anything, I could say that Master Chief was modeled after Gordon.

Cool tempered and good under pressure. Even their suits kind of resemble each other. But which one came first? Oh yeah.

Gordon was definitely a unique character, with MUCH more depth of background. Background for MC = Good warrior guy, lawl!

K...we obviously can tell who played through Half-Life 1...

i was being sarcastic =p

Sorry :D
Kinda jumped in on the middle of this.

Don't you guys think it is kind of ironic that the beginning of Halo 1 is almost identical to Half-Life 1?? What with obtaining the suits and whatnot, then being attacked and stuffs. Halo 1 was a lot less in depth and through you right into the mayhem though...didn't really understand what was happening...

first, halo is crap to pc players so thats not a worth exclusive, 2 crossplataform for xbox and PC gamers are going to be noticed that he hasnt bought the console yet is thinking about it

lawlersauce

LOL. Enjoy your degenerated PC shooters, I'm not gonna to play FEAR, Prey, Q4 and so on even for free. This is really sad how the most gloriuos PC genre turned nowdays in absolutely stupid and primitive low quality trash.

The only one PC shooter for the last 5 years that could stand against Halo 2 - Half Life 2.

Dimar and his crappy FPS taste :D :D :D

Are you calling Half-Life 2 crappy?! :O
Do you consider yourself a "gamer" in the least?!?!

Nope, I love hL2, but there were other excelent FPSes in last 5 years, but how could dimar aprecieate them? I mean to him Black is best FPS ever :)

Half-Life 2 was/is the best 1st person shooter your money could buy. And Counter strike:source is the best multiplayer game you'll ever play.imo

But to the topic, I say if you got the money to get PS3 then I think its the obvious choice. Cant really think of reason why you would want 360 if your already knee PC gamer, since most of their exclusives are/will be available on PC., something you cant say about the PS3.

don't get a 360 because most of the games on it are also on the PC which you are bored of. I suggest a wii because you have never had a console before so instead of new games you can spend less money on the classics via VC. Also you get nintendos first party games.

im a pc gamer who owns both 360 and the ps3, you can look at my sig for my set up. but any ways if i didnt have any of the consoles i would go with the ps3. reason is ps3 has more console exclusive then the 360. Alan Wake, Bioshock, etc that are PC/360 games ill always pick the pc version over the 360. but if your not going to play with your pc any more, get the 360 over the ps3. but if your still going to be a pc gamer i would go with ps3. that is my opinion.

AI in FEAR is worse then Halo 2, actually it doesn't too exciting. I don't care what are you playing at all, the taste or absence of taste in games is a personal matter.

As a PC gamer with 15 years gaming experience and a big shooter lover I say PC is dead to the moment. MO games and RTS - all that left.

GEOW, Forza 2, Mass Effect, Too Human, Fable 2, Halo 3, Halo Wars, PGR4 are not on the PC. Get the 360 you will not regret it.

Get a 360 if you cant wait for the timed exclusive's...

PS3 if you want a few different exclusives and a blu-ray drive...

Wii if you want games that dont take there self's too seriously...
