Haha no.

Consoles are just bad PCs anyway, what with their luxuries having been eliminated already. Talking about things such as being able to play their games right after putting the disk/cartridge in, not having to install them, not having to activate CD keys, not having to wait for fucking patches for them, and most of all, not having to care about smalltime DLCs, without which you can go fuck yourself because they are essential for the main game (i.e. finishing the story).

Besides that, my Xbox was a good novelty for a year, now I just play it VERY seldomly. My PC never "did" that, and I've been having this awful old piece of junk since 2005.

PC > Consoles

the platform means nothing to me, if a game is good it should'nt matter what your playing it on.

False.

Cant believe anyone wold even ask this... One day they will make a console worth the slightest bit of a consideration... actually no, never going to happen. PC FTW

False, consoles are not nor have they ever been better than PCs.

i lol'ed

Gaming Consoles: a box with a crap processor, crap main board, crap memory, crap storage, good (not great) rendering process

so for what you asked.... So false....

Only own a PC, but man do I lust over those PS3 exclusives - ICO/SotC collection and Uncharted specifically.

buy pc + wii and done !

most mongoloid post ever.

Xbox can be interesting but only when heavily modded and hacked - running emulators, backups that actually allow you to run the game without disc (no more worrier about circle scratches), MUCH better interface (that allows skins), removing the storage limits (using any USB drive), setting CPU fan speed, better sorting of games... It won't ever replace my PC for gaming but it's a tad better to use than a non-modded console.
So, to cut the long story short - consoles can have their use and exclusive games are fun but without TON of modding and hacking they fall flat when comared to a PC.

Ever imagined a truly huge MMO like EVE or WoW or whatever on console? It would suck like hell. Loading all over the place, FPS drops, stuttering, ...

Oh wait, consoles have that even without MMOs! So yeah, consoles are nice but PC is and will stay king for a long time! Tablets, iPhones and all that crap? Sure, it´s "gaming" too but c´mon, for real? Like Crysis 3 or Battlefield 3 on a tablet? No? Geez, guess why?! ^^

Only thing a PC lacks is some decent RPGs like Final Fantasy series or Beat em ups like eg Tekken or Street Fighter. But for this you can still buy a console if you really need those games badly (like i do :P)

Just too bad PS3 let me down on the RPG games and XBox360 got so many of them (well actually PS3 has MORE of them, just not in Europe -.-)

Anyway: PC owns!

See the thing is, whenever you buy a game for say,your PS3, you know it will run, unlike on PC, if you want a game, but your computer can't handle it... you're out of luck

Joke thread is a joke.

used to think controllers were better for some games, like grand theft auto, until i got used to them on pc and now i can never go back. pc > all

FALSE.

Both have different game and i own both so you lose all. specially people don't have a console lol.

Lol, this thread alone is your answer. Post this on Live or PSN and you'd get a shitstorm of 12 year olds calling you names.

Console gamers make PC users look like greek philosophers in maturity levels by comparison.

PC>smart phones>consoles

false as your virginity

rnuescape i sbest

PC wins, FATALITY!!!

The PC is much better.

The fact it can emulate other consoles is a nice plus. I like older games such as some classics on the NES, SNES, GBA, etc. but I don't feel like paying some guy on Ebay for a copy of the game since it doesn't even go to the developer anymore.

Although the Xbox 360 and PS3 aren't emulated yet they will in the future and that will give access to future gamers that didn't have the chance to simply buy the games out of the store and are stuck in the same situation.

Now even if you disregard emulators the fact that games on the PC can be modded and thus have a lot more of replayability and content makes it better than a console that is limited to the strict minimum.

The one advantage to consoles is the simplicity of having to just put a disc in the console and grabbing a controller. However if that's the one reason to get a console, I raise an eyebrow at you because for a little more effort you get a lot more advantages and if it's the comfort of being in your living room... You can put the tower in the middle of your living room and hook it up to your tv...
