This question would be better suited in the System Wars board.

Do you have the money for that PC? I would go for the X360 cause no way in hell would I spend over $1.5k on a PC... that's why I always prefer custom built.

I ahve seen PC's for less that amount and with almost those same specs go for half that price... alot of online PC sellers sell you a Dream PC, but flash you with brands and service charges and bla bla. Just go out to a local tech store buy the parts and assemble it, or if you are new to all that get a friend that knows how to put it together and go with you shopping for the parts, you need to know what to buy as well :) These stores just save you that trouble for an additional $1k...

That was my thought. My cousin bought a $5k PC and all it was was crap. It would have been a MONSTER PC, at least for 6 months, if it worked properly. That's the thing with gaming rigs, they get out of date quickly and will cost you $500-$1k ever so often to keep it up to date, especially with video cards, which could be considered the most expensive part of it all.

I'd prefer the 360, at least that way I won't have to worry about getting a new graphics card every 6 months to be able to keep running newer games. I used to be a pc gamer for the longest time, but lately it seems there's a new latest and greatest video card every 3 months. I remember when a video card would last a few years before you'd really need to upgrade to a newer one.

I prefer the 360 because i would rather have a console than pc to play games on plus there is no need to pgrade every years or so to play the latest games.

Well I just got a gaming PC, I use that for strategy games like Company of Heroes, and I have also ordered WOW and UT2004 pack, and I use my 360 for loads of other games:D
