lol i remember n64 games like turok costing 79$ when first released.

mario kart 64 for 69$ i got it on release day :) loved it one of best games ever, shame new one sucks i played it at bestbuy wow new ones nothing like old.

but n64 games atleast cartridges are actually tough, while cd's cant take any damage.

cell processor isnt difficult to program for, it's just different architecture compared to most dev's have worked on so it takes them time to learn it.

ps3 has plenty of games, but i already spent 399 for a xbox360 in 2006 and i dont even play that, i dont feel like paying 399$ for a ps3.

im a pc gamer lol have been over 10 years so my standards are alittle higher than most, i dont just think the games are good enough for me to pay 399$ well 400$ plus tax for it.

not to mention pc games are cheaper i hate paying 60$ for a goddamn game.

Price isnt the only factor

I like sitting on my couch playing games on my Bravia rather then hunching over a monitor,

I like putting games in and playing right away rather then installing and downloading patch after patch after patch

It takes a few hours to get WoW running

PC isnt just pricey, its inconvnient

Sure they may have a killer lineup of games not available on consoles but I am happy with what consoles have

Plus their are games on consoles you cant get on PC either

it's definitely worth ur time, because you are on pc anyway posting here, all i gotta do is click this crysis icon on my desktop start playing it and minimize the game while im still playing and post on gamespot forum lol and maximize/start playing at anytime.

What a load of rubbish. That table is totally daft and makes no real sense and gives no proof of its claim.

I know you don't need a $5000 PC for gaming, but it's bleeding obvious if you start at a really cheap PC and overclock it to punch above it's weight and then compare it to a stupidly high priced PC, that it's performance to price ratio will be better.

It would be better if they also had a table showing their actual performances.

If you don't actually want to play Crysis, then any medium priced PC will play everything.

you know crysis has low settings right?

people on youtube who are like how i used to be didnt know crap about pc gaming, will say pc games suck simply because they cant play them lol.

consoles gamers will say oh crysis looks pretty too bad gameplay sucks lol

in my experience pc gaming some games can actually run worse when you overclock ur cpu rather than leaving it at stock settings.

everyone is luckier than when i started pc gaming because my first pc didnt even have windows 95 it had dos you needed to know command lines to run applications and interfaces were alot more complex.

when i had prebuilt pc's i really didnt know crap about pc's except maybe installing a video card i pc gamed but i found it difficult so i console gamed more , when i started reading

www.anandtech.com

and www.tomshardware.com

That's when i learned lol how pc's work and made me want to built one myself.

but seriously kids, overclocking is pointless.
