pc gaming owns everything.

lol pc is dead if you are a fps fan, it's basically only crap rpg/rts now they killed pc gaming.

but actually consoles lack good shooters also.

game sold more on pc than xbox.

consolegaminsol

Sure it sold more games on the PC but when you can port it (relatively easy) to another system, why not do that to add those sales to the ones you're already making on the PC?

megafail right back at you for not thinking this through :P

no it sold 3 million copies before it was even ported to xbox.

they shouldnt be charging for operating systems anyway.consolegaminsol

it's a totally different game, they had to chop levels in half/cut parts out of the game because wouldnt fit into xbox's 64 mb of ram.

im pretty sure it was hard to port, since it's nothing like pc version.

They might have had to put in a little effort but I doubt it was really that hard to downgrade the textures or leave out a few parts in the game.

Either way: they still made some more money then they would have if they hadn't ported it.

Two things though... you need a HDTV to make Cod 4 look good and I'm pretty sure on to play on XBL you need a HDD for COD4.. so you can't buy an arcade.

ANYONE saying you don't need a HDTV has either never tried a SDTV then gone to HD, blind, a fanboy.. or an idiot.

Most games (apart from a few problems like Dead Rising) look perfectly fine on SD.

USE UR CURRENT PC'S MONITER/KEYBOARD/MOUSE/SPEAKERS/HARDDRIVE/CDROM

PRICE 185$

LOL PWNED consolegaminsol

Reusing parts doesn't mean you can ignore their initial costs. The PC that you must use these parts from cost money. And no, not even the Operating System should be dismissed. All costs should be as new, not from money you spent on other PC's.

In that case, your setup is closer to being over double of the intended $200 asking price for an Xbox 360.

I thought console gamers like to lounge infront thier big tvs? I didn't mean it like that anyway. I am just saying to get what you see in commercials,screenshots and reviews, it requires more than 200 dollars.

50u1r34v3r

umm...... wow... how did i miss that? It only fav. WRPG of all time.... but I dont ever remember anything about a PC version.... weird.... well anyway, my bad. But you all get my point, the other 2 plus countless others are not available on the PC, is my point..... I simply couldnt be satisfied as a gamer only playin on the PC.

You probably could be satisfied playing only PC games. (or any of the other 3 systems)

If you do more research on each system, I'm sure you can find enough games to satisfy you.

I used to think there's only 1 or 2 games I would want to play on the wii but when I did some more research I could find at least 10 games that look interesting to me.

Nope.... I need Zelda, Mario, Halo, Gears, Starcraft, Diablo... the only system not needed this gen is PS3, which is the only one i dont own.

What has price go to do with anything? Why the hell do consolites hide behind the price thing? Honestly is that the best argument you have?

You get what you pay for, That extra money gets you alot more than just a gamesplaying machine. I edit and print lots of pics, videos, music etc etc on my PC, the fact my PC is pretty fast makes all this faster and easier.

I play games on m,y consoles, thats it, nothing more, nothing less. I expect them to be much cheaper than my PC. Fact is i do 100's of things on my PC and get amazing better looking games as a bonus.

i built a ground up pc for about 360$

everyone here, is using a pc so you can use parts off the crap you already have and make the pc you building even cheaper requiring you to buy less parts.

pc is much better than console crap, i mean ur all on a pc anyway, so why not just click a icon on ur desktop and start playing? lol

I've bought my 60GB Pro 360 for €200,- (equivalent of $200) , it plays all the games for the 360 and I haven't spend a dollar/euro on Live.

Besides: If you really want to game online you could just make a new account every month because you'll get a free month of Live Gold everytime you do that. ;)

This.

This is why a PC costs more and spanks a console every.single.time. Guess what, I'm also using my pc for work, earn money off of it and use it to PLAY GAMES TOO.

Absolute winnar.

The price issue is merely brought up to demonstrate that a console isn't a bad deal if you just want to play the majority of the games.

Buy nobody has ever stated consoles are a bad deal. The price thing is only brought up by console gamers when they cant bash PC for any other reason. Like i said in my post, if a PC did nothing buy play games for that price, was just like a console then maybe it could be a valid point. The fact is, even when it comes down to just gaming you get probably $1000's of dollars extra gameplay a year, FREE with mods etc. Not to mention all the other things PC's do.

Anyway, overall my PS3 has cost more than my PC when you add up everything spent on both, so don't tell me its that much cheaper to be a console gamer.
