I must say, I was looking forward to seeing what all the hubbub about the Cell and the incredible "media entertainment center" the PS3 is. And I must say...not impressed. For one, it took me literally about 45 minutes to install this and install that before I could even play my game. Also, the media features on the system are lacking (not that that's what I'm using it for). With the exception of the Blu-Ray capability, I plan on using my Windows Media Center for any non-gaming applications I will do on my tv.

I am not even hating here, just really disappointed. Oh well.

Try more games.

And maybe get a few blu ray movies.

Losing to my brother in 3 times in a row in Madden. I have never lost to my brother in any game consistently.

Also, getting clownstomped in a SF2 Tournament in front of hundreds of people about 4 years ago.

[QUOTE="wehertn"]lol i swear the console noobs make me laugh harder everytime they post of these they are so damn dumb there just mad that consoles suck compared to pc and they just cant take it enjoy ur QQ maybe get a job and buy a real gaming platform hahahahahalowe0

Noob? Nope, been gaming on PCs since Doom, and consoles since Super Mario Bros..

Get a job? Nope, already quite happy with the one I have. Being a senior software developer has its perks.

Buy a real gaming platform? I have all of them, and I still prefer my consoles over my PC. Since I own all of them, what platform would you suggest I buy?

I'm sure it's more comfortable for you to pretend that anyone whose preferences don't match yours must be mentally or financially deficient, but I have a polite suggestion: get over yourself, because you're not special. You're just another guy with a PC.

[QUOTE="MotherRussia"] and that Keyboard+mouse>>>>>>>>> any controllerao_bomber

The speedpad can be replaced with any other gaming keyboard and will still support my claim, but be reasonable... normal keyboards, especially laptop keyboards, just aren't suited for gaming.

Based on the following criteria:

-ease of use

-compatility-not all games are compatible with all systems, videocards, etc out of the box

-pick up and play

-standard pricing-either you can get a prebuilt one at various prices and specs, or you have to put one together at various prices and specs

-standard peripherals-you can have a crappy gamepad while someone you are playing has a good one, experience is extremely variated based on what peripherals you have

-Customer Service-numerous vendors involved. no streamlined customer service, most repair service is do it yourself

-software stability

-marketing appeal-whens the last time youve even seen a pc game commercial not named WoW. Nobody outside of pc gaming knows what the hot games are without actively doing their research

-portability-unless you invest in both a laptop

-connectivity-numerous wires, numerous hookups in the backup, can become a mess

etc. etc.

PC might actually be the worst gaming platform based on your perspective
