    No, seriously, consoles suck. Especially the 360. I can stand the PS3, if only for MGS4...

    I have a PS3 too... it's great for playing bluray's and those stupid console exclusives

    PS3's and their 720p 30FPS (generally) graphics just fail to compare to the almighty PC.

    I have a PS3 all my buddies own PS3's and 360s for some games consoles are great, pick and play racing games, 3rd Person action titles, Resident Evil for example 5 was good on PC not great but capcom has a fairly track record with PC game support, so some games do just work better on console,

    that said ill still keep the PC as my main gaming platform, nothing compares to a good pc. in terms of frame rate, graphics quality, customization and overall steam sales like the summer camp sale cannot be beat by console titles, Bioshock II for what was it $3 or $5 the other day, Witcher 2, and Shogun II both being 33% off, among other deals entire developer cataloges on sale for nearly $200-300 off yea.. PC rocks woot

    yea except,

    with many games now using online authentication codes, on consoles for new titles means sorry ebay the game you still cant play online you get to pay $15 for that so yea ill stick to steam sales i pay $5-10 get the whole game and multiplayer , or in situations like Dragon Age or Mass Effect, i get the game and all the DLC for $30 when console is still sitting at a $40 price tag for the game or Dragon age ultimate managed to snag that for $20 with all DLC when it was still $50-60 on console, ebay is great an all but to be honest with the direction the new PS4 and Nintendo Wii U are headed, second hand games will be pretty much single player only. In which case i dont need steam deals or anything i just wait for those titles to hit the bargin bin when no one cares and i can get them for pennies on the dollar.
