There are plenty of good games on the 360 that are not on the PC.

Not to me, I do enjoy some AAA, AA and A rated on Gamespot 360 exclusives BTW.

I'll go with PC/Wii, unless you can do PC/PS3.

I think the idea of the 360 being worthless if you have a PC has been proven wrong many, many times now.

Well to get the full experience of a 360/PC exclusive you need to shovel in hundreds of more dollars than buying a 360. It's just more of the easy road if your not a computer geek, at least that's how I see it. Plus can't the same be argued for getting a PS3 when people say it has a web browser and blue-ray I always saymy comp does that, although in blue-ray case it'd cost quite a bit more on PC though.

Lost Odyssey, Tales of Vesperia, Star Ocean 4, Gears of War 2, Fable 2 are just some of the games I'd like to play that aren't on PC.

I wouldn't call it worthless.

But PC/PS3 looks like a better combo IMO.

Even if future 360 exclusives are ported to PC I'd rather have em on 360, no need to upgrade. My 360 can play GTA IV and Gears but on PC if you can only handle Gears, forget about GTA IV.

Far from worthless, actually. Just take out the GPU, and you'll have a portable heater. Great for cooking food or boiling water. It is a fantastic survival tool!

just wondering would one have any point of having a 360 if they had a pc when alot of 360s games are on the pc. With that said would the best pairing be pc/wii or pc/ps3

PrinceofSarcasm

There is a point, all the game PC does not get, the ease of use, no frustration, buying new OS, Video cards, patches for game breaking bugs and incompatibilities etc etc

In fact, since 360 gets all the PC games i need and boubles that wityh its own exclusives i would never miss, it is 100% worthless for me having a PC when i can have a 360 for 1/5 the price

I'm an avid PC gamer that owns a 360, and I can tell you that I'm damn sure that the latter does not feel worthless.

I have a 360 and a gaming PC and I've asked myself this question plenty of times. When I look at my 360 games though (Halo 3, GoW, Silent Hill, RE5, Mass Effect and Dead Space), I feel confident it wasn't a total waste. That said, it would probably make more sense to have a PS3 at this point. I'll get one when God of War 3 comes out...

It is easily proven that the "most 360 exclusives are also on PC" tripe is pure bunk. There is Gears of War and Mass Effect. What else is there? So far, with your newly created account, you're nil in debate victories. Care to make yet another and start again?

For me it isn't the best, but far from worthless. It's great for Fighters, Action games, and the few 360 exclusives worth playing. If I had to have just one console and a PC, I'd go PC/Wii.

I would say that it is. You can play games that are on 360 but with better graphics, mods, and don't need to worry about XBL. If you don't like keyboard and mouse then you can use a controller (hell, even a 360 controller). And you can connect your PC to a TV if you want so you can basically get the same experience as the 360 but better. The only thing I'd give the 360, and any other console for that matter, is convenience.

So, those three games equate to 80% (your exact words) of 360 games that aren't on the PS3 being on the PC. Well done.

Again, humor me for a moment. Where's that link?

Party chat is easy on PC... you having more friend on 360 has nothing to do with Live being better then Steam...

in game Chat on most games is quite bad, the whole steam network is not as good as Live or as streamlined.
