Seriously? Despite all the advantages, there are still pure console gamers and it blows my mind.
PC gaming is:
1) not that expensive. I've seen good PC's built for 500 if your REALLY on budget.
2) Has more high scoring exclusives than all 3 consoles combined
3) Has mods, I've seen mods offered for free that are superior to expansion packs. Infact, many games IMO like Rome Total War would be garbage without mods. They can completely revolutionize a game.
4) I've found that PC games generally have the best and most mature community of players
5) PC gaming has unmatched technical power and the versatility it gives is next to none. While consoles are likely to be stuck with 1080p even on the NEXT generation, PC gaming, if you are willing to spend the money, can be running across multiple monitors with features like eyefinity.1920x1200 x 3 is 5760p.
6) Yes, PC gaming can be played on your "comfy" couch and you can connect your PC to your HDTV. If you don't want to use the superior M+K (superior for most genres that is) for a game, you can just connect a controller. LIke I said before, VERSATILITY
7) Best versions of all multiplats. Infact, some multiplats are so good on PC that they might as well be considered a whole different experience. Case in point, Team Fortress 2.
So, why do some people actually not game on PC?
1. A 500 dollar pc is not a gaming pc
2. Take out RTS,FPS and MMO and the pc doesnt have much at all when it comes to high scoring exclusvies. If you dont like those genres then that doesnt do you much good. And there are plenty of titles on the PS3/360 that are not on the pc.
3. Rome total war? You think console gamers care two craps about Rome total war? Mods help some games and are non existent on others. Most consolites have other games they can move to within a matter of weeks.
4. That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard.I play Leage of Legends right now on pc and it is one of the worst online communites I have ever played with. Same goes for Battlenet and many ohter pc online services the only diffrence is most people dont have a mic so you get to see them type there rage instead of vocing it.
5. The diffrence between 1080p and 1900x1200 is minimum at best. And the next generation of consoles will be pushing games with assets so high that no current pc will dream of running it at 1900x1200 res. Why would consoles focus on pushing more when there are only 1080p tv's?
6. Yea i got my pc hooked up to my tv but having a Keybored trey in my lap isnt more comfortable then a controller and most the genres I play Mouse and Keybored is worthless.
7. Sorry but you are wrong again. I would never play Assasins Creed 2 on pc it is horrible littered with bugs and a crappy DRAM feature that runins the game same with Splinter cell: Conviction and other games like SF4 where the online community on pc is non existent and the visual diffrene in those games are only resolution qualtiy.
At the end of the day it all comes down to prefrence and you are talking to someone who owns a gaming pc and still likes consoles better.

PC Review Standards:
"It's a given that the PC version of a multiplatform game is gonna look better. But MW2 on PC is getting compared to other PC shooters. I played that version, not the console versions, and while MW2 looks good, it looks no better than what you'd expect it to look like. If our standard of comparison for PC games was "the console version," the PC version would get a higher score than the others over 90% of the time." Kevin V
Dont bother explaining he dont get it.
