I don't think there is a question about that in 2008.

M$ is pushing the "Games for Windows" campaign so much that it can actually hurt the Xbox in the long run.

If the Sony exclusives can deliver what they are promising I think that the combo of PC + PS3 is superior.

You will be able to get a lot of games that are available on the 360 though the PC and also the PS3 games.

Just hope they can deliver what they have been promising for so long.

If you have a really fast GPU (Graphics card) and a really slow CPU you will get what is called a bottleneck. Everything has to be generally up to speed. Its like buying a Ferrari with a Honda Civic engine inside.

Yes, but you would also need a new graphics card (unless yours is already good).

as for price of a CPU, hmm I'm in Canada so I dont wanna start rhymning off prices Ill just give you a few examples:

AMD X2 3800+ : 7800GT and below, x1800 and below

AMD X2 6000+: 8800ultra and below, x2900 HD and below

AMD 2800+: 6800GT and below, x800 XT and below

do you get whe picture?

Personally I like pc + 360, mostly cause I like alot of the 360 only games like dead rising, forza 2, doa 4, pgr4, and halo 3. Then most the pc games I play aren't on 360 (or not how I like them on the 360) Warhammer40k DOW, guild wars. halflife2, and hellgate london.

Most the time I want the game on a specific platform like bioshock for example was a 360 cause I didn't want to mess w/ drm, and could just rent it and buy another game w/ the saved cash. Games like oblivion on the other hand are pc titles because of the heavy mod community.

That's what I did. That's probably the main reason why I opted out of a 360 this generation -- cause I have a gaming rig to play those games that come out on 360/PC. PS3 + PC gives you greater variety, if you had to choose PC + a console.

Why? No optimization problems, no lame (and uncomfortable) keyboard and mouse controls, and no having to install/uninstall games when you're done with them.

Oh, and 5-7 years with the SAME hardware, no upgrades REQUIRED to play the latest games.

You aren't required to do anything. You upgrade of your own volition to keep getting highest settings. With Vista now you can stream games from discs, the PC can use gamepads, and most new PC games are beautifully optimized. MISCONCEPTION IS BACK.

let it go man, really just let it go, no matter how much we try, people will still say you have to upgrade a PC every 2 weeks and that it costs 10.000 dollars/euros to upgrade one, really it just isnt worth the hassle of explaining people that with the PC you actually have a choice of how strong or weak you want your system to be

See what I said about optimization problems, with consoles, I never have to worry about how strong or weak my system is because its always perfectly optimized and runs at the max FPS and with the highest amount of detail possible.

I also agree with TC, because 360 and PC share some games (Bioshock, GeOW etc.) that the PS3 doesn't have, owning a PS3 + PC means you can enjoy some of the 360's games and PS3 exclusives. Its a killer combo!
