[QUOTE="TwistedBishop, post: 2794813, member: 12503"] I should mention that, while I believe the whole "xbox games will come out for the PC eventually" thing is true, I can't agree that upgrading your computer is a good use of the cash. It's hard to compare $400 spent on a console that will last 5 years versus a tech upgrade for your computer which becomes outdated very quickly. (Although if you do a lot of computer work that requires a better video card or more RAM then maybe it's different.) Aside from the fact that I'm loathe to play using a keyboard and mouse, that's what keeps me buying consoles: simplicity and dependability over the long-term. I love knowing that in 2010 I can still buy a game, drop it in, and be playing instantly. All without worrying that the hot video card I purchased years ago won't cut it. [/QUOTE]
