A combination of: 1. Cost and 2. Online Realistically the 360 will cost you more that the the PS3 in the long run(same upfront). I can do without Blu-ray, I still get upscaled DVD's. And personally the online is better on the 360 than the PS3. I've played it and it had more lag than Xbox Live and I don't mind paying $50 a year, that comes out to 4/5 dollars a month, cheaper than WOW monthly. Though PC online is way better(if you have a good rig). And visually the PS3 isn't much difference, though the PC SHINES in that category.(Crysis)
To the original post: the 3 reasons that PC isnt the best. 1. to create a complete good computer that has a bluray/gamepad isnt cost effective to *most poeple 2. i actually only have 3 friends that computer game, compared to 20+ on xbox live(that ive met in person)/Consoles have Split-Screen 3. and setting up a computer isn't quite "plug'n'play" To Clear Issues/Say whats on my mind: Blu-ray, gamepads, and HDTV's can be used on a PC just as easy as a Kb&M/DVD/Monitor. Most gpus now come with HDMI converters in the box now. Newegg sells Blu-ray drives for PC, same with Bestbuy(easy as any dvd drive to set up). Gamepads cant be used on PC too, Newegg/Bestbuy sells gamepads strictly for pc and the 360 controller can be used on pc using an adapter if you feel like it, mine was installed automatically.(and some current games, crysis, have premade button layouts for the 360 controller too). PC DOES have most top rated games. Consoles ARE more user friendly during setup, i built my first rig at 14, its not hard just takes a bit longer and more knowledge to set up. Getting games on PC/PS3 can get tedious, i hate having to install games but whatever. Though the experience of PC gaming is quite unmatched by consoles to *me. But today PC gaming is getting harder seeing how they consoles are both 300 dollars(US) and my last build costed around 600. The PS3 is especially a steal now that it has Blu-ray, free online and is that cheap, and the 360 Elite is nice for all the extra maps, downloads u need. And graphically wise the consoles aren't that far behind, as of right now, the cryengie 3 is coming out bringing new capabilities to the consoles. And i heard some dx11 capabilities can be utilized on dx9 cards, maybe devs can utilize that on the 360 later. Though as many devs using dx11 im sure it'll blow the consoles by. Hmm... am i incorrect on anything?
[QUOTE="h25k95"]Pc has worser graphics i ever seen btw the screen is too small it is better to play on an LCD tv with HDimaps3fanboy
Omg, Im gonna have to quote this. Me too... PC=Best, and if u have LOTS of money (1600p screen=$1200) PS3=cheap, and if u like movies(blu-ray) XBOX 360=cheap, and if u like playing online (ps3 slim/360 elite cost the same) And after playing both ps3 and 360 at my house, on the same tv theres ALMOST no visual diff (if you play the same game). either one'll be brighter, darker, or duller which one just depends on which game.(hopefully crysis 2 will show their true colors)
