Anyway, i have both a PS3, and a gaming PC. So here is my take on some of the issues: [b]PC Pros:[/b] - Unparalleled graphics - Update ability - Fantastic media hub as well - The choice of Keyboard/ mouse, Xbox controller or PS3 style controller - A MUCH larger pool of games than consoles - Lan Parties will ALWAYS beat any console get-together - Much harder to get busted watching porn on it. - Cheap/free online gaming with crazy amounts of members/users - Good exclusive ***les: Starcraft II, Diablo 3, Empire Total War, NWN - 90% of all Xbox360 games come to PC as well thanks to Microsoft - Game prices range from free to a max cost of half the console game prices! - Tweaking tweaking tweaking! - You don't need to spend thousands on a proper HD TV, because PC games look awesome on any screen. [b]PC Cons:[/b] - Price in setting up an initial system - Installing/struggling with steam/Activation/DRM... Hassles... - No guarantee of good frame-rates - Bugs, Crashes, Patches needed, errors - Some EXTREMELY good games never make it to PC (Fable II, Gears 2, MGS4, Final Fantasy...) - Everything is always blamed on Piracy... [b]Console Pros:[/b] - Out of the box performance - Great ***les tailored for the machine - Fun to play with friends in a controlled environment - Very wide availability on all ***les - Are relatively cheap (PS3 still needs a little price drop) - Easy to set up - Relaxing to play without having to struggle with cables or space. - Great exclusives!!! - PS3 has Blu Ray [b]Console Cons:[/b] - Games are EXPENSIVE! Way too expensive - If you get bad frame-rates on games, there is pretty much nothing you can do about it. - You can't have lan parties - No DotA (lol) - If it breaks, you are pretty screwed. - Extra's are really really expensive - Little children play them - Not many games are THAT good, barring the 3 or 4 exclusives a year. - Without an HD TV, say goodbye to any form of good graphics when compared to PC. This list only shows some things that popped into my head now. There are obviously more. These are also only my opinion and take on the platforms. All in all, i like PC, because i am in control, and because i love the games. I also like consoles, because they do have some great games.
