coming from a guy who loves pc more. damn xbox 360 is still killing ps3, well its obvious when it comes to hardware vs software. the ps3,it like having a big gun but not knowing how to use it properly, then it all just becomes for show.
@hanass £189.74 inc VAT soo what about the other hardware parts how much they going to add up 2. then you want the monitor...how much will that cost to get the great experince. i think everyone owns a tv XD so you buy the parts and you buy a monitor...are you telling me you can do all this under the price of £199 pound with 3 games and 1 controller and other stuff with it..or even 300 pound if your including the ps3. also a pc doesnt deliver the experince a console does but im happy to hear you can play your xbox controller on PC THAT I AM XD p.s anyway to play xbox controller on ps3 XD
@ eugenioteran i agree with you in united kingdom where i live most pcs at 250 pound/\$500 are below average and can play games on the lowest setting at 5-6 FRAMES a sec... but that depends on the graphics card and if it lacking cpu or can keep up with the cpu or if its intergrated or stand alone and theres always the compatabilty issue 2.
well i posted a quite biased commment before and i was reading the above comments and well i guess the xbox controller is perfect for gameplay but im getting my xbox back tomorrow (rrod after 2 years) so im going to get a ps3 but it annoys me that the controllers are so light and small and awkward and the pc's cost 2 much. 800 pound is alot of money for people who have familys...some people just want to kill time they dont live for games. And the last thing i remember graphics don't make a game. but from my mind i say that microsoft was targeting a certain group of people,i don't want to go into details because i think the people reading this are not dumb but actully smart so you get the drift of what type im talking about but to sum it up the general public so the majority of the people could afford it..so the pc beats them all...doesnt make it better..just because the hardwares better doesnt mean it make the experince better. my proof comes from the wii why because it was targeted at at familys and it could be afforded by all types of people and thats why the wii done so well and its not just the price of the wii it gives a completely different experince in games and you never get that repeptive feeling you get when you play games...and i think thats what makes the pc bad it limits the experince..consoles open the gap abit more but the wii opened it a good amount and thats why people are overlooking its graphics because the experince is so fun..but the games atm are kinda made for groups. so i praise the wii for that. @IceHiLL again computers was not meant to be just for games and thats why it loses again because of so much different hardware games have compatiablity issues. and consoles are made just for gaming so they dont need all the other stuff a pc needs so they dont have to have so much power in terms of cpu and running mutliple programs. i think the ps3 was more mutlimedia then a gaming console because i think sony moved to far away from a sole console gaming experince and tryed to create a multimedia console with the blueray and internet...aka its a pc on a tv...and thats why the ps3 is losing its fight and the coding is so hard because sony had other agendas aswell and did not put 100% into just the gaming experince. for the xbox 360 failing i guess thats mircosoft fear of losing to the ps3 so they try and get a headstart but i guess they planned the 360 to far back and released it 2 late resulting it being a inferior console...proof...wii and ps3 have that disc tray...xbox 360 has that one from ps2 and xbox and normal dvd players also the fan noise. so what do i predict mircosoft will do....well i think they learned from their mistake and they going to release a new xbox that surpasses the ps3 but still affordable..but sony will have won what they wanted and that would be the bluyray i think that they had the ps3 has a gaming console not the highest thing on the ladder and they was thinking of blueray more and how to counter hd dvd. so when the xbox gets released it be better or match or just be below the pcs at the time but the price gap will be great but the xbox "720"will be cheaper but it will deliver a much better experince then a pc would and the pcs will get better and better but the price gap will increase and thats why pcs are not meant for gaming.
some one said the pc is for FPS,RPG AND RTS...but in graphics wise your right but in gameplay i think the consoles just beat the pc by miles with the controller and compatibilty and price. i only play a pc for rts games but with the release of endwar i think there is going to be a big change in rts games being voice controlled with a headset in the future.......fps on consoles are strongly better the analog sticks are so much better in experince wise...and i dont remember alot of good graphic wise games on the pc like fable 2 but pc gets one or 2 games a month from the big list of games released on the xbox and the lesser few released on ps3. i like xbox 360 cause they got way more exclusives,controls are better and you got gamerscore and xbox live is paid for resulting in really good customer service. pc's are not meant for gaming thats what my step dad told me 13 years ago and i hold some belief in that now. why would u press W A S D TO Walk or UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT....when u can use one finger to do all that dont you think you wouldnt be in the game that much and because of sooo many buttons YOU HAVE TO BE A ALL OUT NERD TO BE REALLY GOOD AT A GAME. at least consoles are not played by Super nerds who spend hours on a pc trying to increase there reaction times in fps when a average person can get that average time on a console without "training" or even trying at that. great example is shadowrun...the pc players get owned all the time...i remember fighting nearly all pc players and all you got to do is run up to them at close range and run around them and the guy starts running around and dooo doo. plus playing pc games sucks how can you play on a keyboard and mouse im sorry but im not biased against a pc im just not stupid to play a extra 500 to see better lighting on a game...to get a better experince when your playing on a keyboard and mouse and having a better graphics is your excuse for the keyboard and mouse but controllers give 60 times more experince then any great pc graphics could do...i dont remember enjoying the graphics of a game and just walking around staring at the background in a game i remember running around zombie heads and blowing crap up like some one on a pc could do with months of "training".
