No, sorry can't feel threatened. Hell, I can't be bothered either. :rolleyes:

The console is evolving, taking giant leaps every time a new one is released. But personally I'm sticking with my PC. There's still one or two things that it can do that a console can't.

And unless they bring out a console that I can upgrade the CPU and G-card, I can't be bothered. I mean come on..... that's half the fun of having a PC. :)
 
Haha - wait until your friends rock up @ the local LAN with LCD Screens and Xbox 360's.....:eek:

and i can do that on my pc .....so?

what im saying is: to get best graphics on a xbox you need a good tv(32" lcd like you said) and so having a console + tv more or less = R10000-R15000...so that means its more or less the same as n pc.....but then again if you calculate what you can do with a concole(+all the above that comes with the tv) and that what a pc can do for that price range...you will see that the pc beats the console by FAR:cool: so i hope you get what im trying to said/prove...;)

Compare xbox 360's and PS3 specs to current PC specs then come back ;)
Click to expand...

compare price... then use that money to upgrade your pc.... then ps3 can lick my left...

as well its much beta playing it on a PC ( my opinion )
 
The main reason why i favour the console is because all consoles of the same type like the Xbox 360's Games will run exactly the same...that means you can go into the shop and grab any game with the 360 logo without turning the cover to look at the system requirements and sigh because youre specs arent really up 2 it.
 
by the looks of your pc i dont c y u need to be looking at system requirements. and u are right. it looks crap and plays smooth always on console, both you and your friends ps2
 
Well...NFSMW and Oblivion looks better on Xbox360 than on my friends PC with 2 x 7800 in SLI
