Its not even a contest. I have the processing power of about 50 ps3's on my PC. I have over 100,000 games on my PC from various emulators, and I have games like Oblivion modded so much that its not over 5 times bigger. PC games with editors are the shit. Consoles are for people who don't know any better since there clearly isn't anything better about them. PC’s > consoles

I have hundreds of thousands of games from various emulators. I have Ps1-Ps2, N64, Sega Saturn, DS, Game Cube, and just about everything older. It runs them all in high def graphics with enhanced visual and graphical features. On top of that, all the new games like Oblivion and Crysis, i have to mod the hell out of before it pushes my PC. My Oblivion data folder is over 20 gigs now!!! Almost everything in that game has now been replaced via superior Mods. It has over 50k weapons. Its got the entire continent on it now and morrowind. I put on visible distant objects and pushed the draw distance back with Forever View. You can see about 12x farther than in the console version. And I can play it all with an Xbox 360 controller on my big 30 inch LCD monitor in 1600x900. My computer is over a year old right now too and it still rapes any console. I'm never going back to a puny console. What pathetic crap they try to sell us. PC gaming > Consoles

To say you live in japan and owned a PC and play games about it, you do not know what your saying. You just want people to agree with so they will get an xbox too. I cant see why blu ray is bad, EVEN IF YOUR GETTING IT FOR FREEEE! your telling me that you would rather pay more for an extra disc, let games suffer on other consoles because 1 console cant handle a single disc, and because its not powerfull enough, These things are problems and developers that want to make large and games never seen before will go PC + PS3 exclusive. Cryisis was talked about coming to PS3 and still could come or a new game from the company, Xbox 360 hasnt even been romoured about haveing it. I see large game and new games that are creative on PS3( littlebigplanet, resistance) Games that are diffrent and next gen. Xbox only has halo 3( similar to HAlo 2) Fable and gears of war. Ps3 has add much more veriety in the games and game genres then the wii and xbox put together. Not everyone want to shoot someone and not everyone want to play goofy last gen graphics,and move a controller. PS3 is and has always been cheaper. Let me prove it. XBOX 360 console- $199, 120gb harddrive-$150(or get a 20gb harddrive for a $100), Xbox Live($60 a year) Play and charge kit- $20 and battery packs -$14. And still no blu-ray. Wifi is optional but you will most likly get one unless you bring your network contections to your Living room, bed room or basement. It cost $100. Lets Add, 199 + 150+60+20+14+100= $593 Thats the price range of the 60 gb PS3 when it first came out, even so that atleast could play Blu ray movies and can serf the web. You can even watch you tube on you system. You can even istall Lenix on it and the ps3 can be like your PC. Now lets see the PS3 now. PS3 80gb- $399, Nyko media hub $20(only if you want for USB port and SD card readers.) and an HDMI cable for like $10. $430 for the ultimate PS3 which you dont even need to upgrade your PS3 ever again. PS3 is cheaper and just better. This guy is a fanboy. To say you live in japan and owned a PC and play games about it, you do not know what your saying.

I built my PC from scratch a couple of years ago, but since then I've spent well over £400 upgrading it. It'll get a thoroughly playable framerate on Crysis on epic detail mode, but there are games that just play so much better on a console games controller. With all the last generation consoles I could just get an emulator, but untill I upgrade to something with 3+ processor cores, that looks pretty much out of the question. I would get a PS3, only there aren't really any exclusives I want for it, hating all manga-style games, and since I found out Armored Core 4'll be on the 360, it sealed it. Good luck with your console based forays anyway!
