I don't get it. Why would you blow like 200 dollars upgrading your PC if you can just buy a console and not have to worry.

PC's are for smart people who can fix problems themselves.

Because people seem to forget PCs aren't strictly for playing games. You do all of your other stuff on it, so you have to account for that in terms of cost.

That's why I have a cheap PC and some consoles next to it.

Cost of a cheap PC (say $300) + a PS3 (let's say $350) and a 360 (another $250) = enough for a pretty decent gaming PC.

derp

For the price of the consoles and cheap PC you can get a good gaming computer that's more powerful than both of the consoles.

Fix'd.

Honestly I used to be a Nintendo fanboy until I realized how much better PC gaming is than all consoles.

IF you upgrade your computer right, you will not have to upgrade it for a few years. By that time, a new gaming console will have come out. instead of spending MORE on the new console, which may/may not have backward compatibility, you upgrade your computer for the same price, AND you still can play all the old games you have.

Your right, PC's aren't for complete idiots who need everything spoonfed to them.

This is just like the roblox v blockland war.

1. there is none
2. whenever someone mentions it everyone goes all "shut the forget up"
3. it needs to goddamn stop coming up

Decent, but not able to max out most games. A good gaming PC is probably over 1k.

Even though consoles can't do that, what about those console only titles like LBP and RDR? I wouldn't want to give those up.

Xbox - Overheats

PS3 - Expensive

Wii - Can cause damage to body

PC - Can only have certain games, depending on the computer.

What I'm trying to say is that consoles are just more convenient and always have been. If you don't mind things getting a little complex like wondering if this new graphics card is compatible with my PC, PC gaming is the way to go. If you know nothing about computers or technology and just want things to be simple, you should consider console gaming.

PS3 - Expensive
Yeah maybe in 2007, not really anymore.

Xbox - Overheats
The newer Xbox 360 model doesn't RROD or so I've heard.

The best console is Real Life, it has the most amazing graphics power ever.

No, it's true.

Now shut the forget up because you're not helping the damn "console wars."

Attention Whore.
