But I'd rather have a computer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
A Wii is alot more fun to play then the Xbox 360 or the Ps3, as well as being so much cheaper.
Indeed, and I think PC gamers wouldn't really miss PS3 since the same type of games are playable on both. And in case you wanna say the PS3 games are better, you must be forgetting about games as oblivion, dark messiah, warhammer, medieval 2: total war etc <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I know what the PS3 can do, but I also know my computer can do better <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
It can read and write dvd also, play games on it, internet on it, watch movies on it etc!
Why spend an extra 500 dollars (and like 60 extra per game) on a machine that basically does what my computer can too? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
I haven't said that a PS3 or PS games are better or worse than a PC or PC games... you just can't compare a personal computer to a console.
And you tend to conclude from your own case... let's say I have a PC but it is 4 years old. So, I would have to upgrade it anyway or even buy a new system. I think the money I would have to spend wouldn't be less than the 600 bucks for a PS3.
And if you can show me the PC which can do what the PS3 can do and is cheaper, I will gladly say that your point is valid. Of course there are PCs for 600 Euro or little more. But what about the Blu-Ray player? You might not be interested in it but it is an advantage of the PS3 you can't talk away.
About the games:
As I said, there are PC games which you don't get for the PS3 - and vice versa. Just an example: If you like racing games and have played any Gran Turismo game only once, you will never want to play a racing game on the PC again. There are examples for PC games either... again, I am not saying one is better or worse than the other. We are talking about two systems here... I don't say you have to decide for one and only one system.
Personally, I regard the PC more and more like a working device... I work on the PC and don't play games that much anymore. When I had the PS2 a few months ago, it was really nice to play with it wihtout sitting in front of the PC but on the sofa in front of my bigger TV screen. And that's the place for consoles.... therefore, comparing a PC with consoles is not really good in my opinion.
