i sold my wii a few years ago to fund a new 9800GT for my PC.

would never sell my PS3 or 360 though. and i ended up buying a wii again second hand for SMG2.

i like a nice balance between console and PC gaming. if i was only a PC gamer i wouldn't be playing Red Dead, SMG, GoW3, Alan wake, etc, but if i was only a Console gamer i would never of played WoW, Civ, Crysis or better versions of Fallout 3, Dragon age, Half life, Portal, L4D etc.

I hope for your sake all your games work. You may want to check out the multitude of threads in the PC and Mac gaming thread here "why won't X game run onder DX10", "Why does the installer stop at 80%", "Can't get X game to work under windows X" In all seriousness I hope it works out that you don't have any problems and you have a smooth gaming career on the PC...... but...... *you were warned!*

Problems like that aren't common, as long as you have the specs and are running a Windows OS all games should work fine. If there are issues, Google is the best tool.

Yes you are!

Actually, I find those problems entertaining. I'll often find games that I know won't work well on my system (like Grim Fandango) and find a solution myself using troubleshooting techniques and Google. Though, I think that stems from my love of software and computers rather than my love of gaming.

PC gaming is going to be ahead for some time now so its not a bad call, you take the good with the bad though because while some games take a bit of resourcefulness to get running you can also use that resourcefulness to add some mods to make it even better. I still like to chill out on a console now and then though myself, hope you don't miss that.

cool, its a shame you cant keep your PS3 and have a gaming PC really. I mean you know you will probably want to play some of the games for it eventually and then you will regret it.

Not sure I see the point in getting TF2 if you're considering the Orange Box, as it's included. That said, I sincerely hope you enjoy it.

To TC:

Good for you, but I think its is better to keep a console and get a PC rather than sell one to get one...save for 360. Then you upgraded in my book.
