If the PS3 beat the crap out of everything else, would that mean it shouldn't count?

Because that statement is just an opinion based on the ideal that the best hardware makes the best system. I prefer more of the consoles features than I do a PC and I always obey the piracy laws.

No clue. If we just made a sticky att he top saying "pc wins", then banned all the hermits and renamed the place "console wars", i would be entirely content, hell, i'd even be grateful.

Oddly enough most people here choose to be wrong and deny it or just simply ignore it by saying "I can't afford a gaming PC".

Ok then.

We should have console and handheld wars as well.

PC have won "system wars".

So know we need some "local skirmishes" right?

The pc doesnt beat anything especially since every pc is differnt. But hermits need something to pat themselvles over the back with. I personally would take the PS3 or the 360 over the pc as it has more games that appeal to me.

not where I live.... PC Games near me sell out 10 times faster than console games... Infact, Bioshock 360 was packed on the shelves while people had to wait on backorder for Bioshock PC near me...

I could change that to "The PC beats everything especially because every PC is different" and it would be just as true.

No, just keep it as it is. Console gamers continue to deny the PC's exsistance and relevance, so it doesn't really matter if the PC has won. Still systemwars for console gamers is essentially a battle for second place.

The reason the PC beats consoles is because you can upgrade a PCevery year. So hermits win by cheating. :lol:

pc gaming is basically like some old war-horse hermits wheel out the win graphics and AAA comparisons (usually in threads purely based on consoles). imo.

Hey that's not fair. In '06 I gave the PS3 an F- but in 2007 I gave it a C+. If that's not an upgrade I don't know what is.

Only if hermits admit that the are different standards within their own ranks.

Not everyone has a top of the line PC.

... thats quite possibly the dumbestthing I've ever heard... Crysis on a 7800 GTX looks better than previous games on a 7800 GTX would have... More efficient usage of hardware isn't exclusive to consoles...

yeah pc usually always wins. but not many people have gaming pc's as consoles. also, there are some amazing games on consoles that never come to pc.

and i like to play splitscreen multiplayer. pc's are so antisocial.

this is a smart post... No bias in here. I like PC games more than console games. Thing is, I HATE the people who try to say that PC gaming sucks because of stupid irrelevant issues... If you can't take 20 minutes to enhance your experience, your just lazy and I don't respect lazy people...

System Wars isnt about individual opinions, its about whats on paper.

Newcomers? You think highly of yourself dont you? I could say the same about my PS2/GC/Xbox, my PS2 died within 2 years, my GC had 3 games ( Smash , Rogue Squad , Zelda WW ) and my Xbox ... pfffft... other than Halo once again not much by PC couldnt provide.

PC though, Warcraft 3/Diablo 2 for a hell of a long time, CS , Unreal Tournement , World of Warcraft 2 years , Civilisations , Even The Sims , Battlefields ...and I'm missing loads ...

So playing on a videocard that came out the same time as the 360 is the same as playing as one that came out last month? :| PC games require more power every year and more Ram is required. This year you need 2gigs to run games smoothly. Next year it's going to be 3gigs I bet. Yeah that is using hardware efficient. :roll:

It's a problem with consoles that they are not upgradable
